‘In order to give you more levers to control your image, a trademark is an obvious place to go and it might be that society is driving the Beckhams to use these levers to protect their children in this more manipulative world in which we live.

‘But from another point of view, you could call it savvy and looking to the future. ’

Mrs Beckham has registered her children for trademarks covering six classes of products and a class for ‘entertainment services’ should they wish to go into showbusiness.

The trademarks cover brands of cosmetics such as perfume, lip gloss and even anti-wrinkle creams, as well as books, umbrellas, music, clothing and children’s dolls.

Beckham and his wife chose to register their names as trademarks at the height of their careers.

In 2000, the former England captain registered ‘David Beckham’ as a trademark, while ‘Victoria Beckham’ was trademarked in 2002 as the former Spice Girl embarked on a solo music career.

In recent years, the couple, worth around £500million, have allowed their children to capitalise on the Beckham brand.

Brooklyn, their eldest child, is managed by his father’s agent Simon Oliveira and has done a number of lucrative modelling shoots.

In 2014, his younger brother Romeo fronted Burberry’s Christmas campaign having first started modelling for the luxury fashion house at the age of 10.

Last year, the youngest brother Cruz launched his pop career with the release of a charity Christmas single.

Brand expert Nigel Currie said the decision to trademark the children’s names was a wise move.

He said: ‘Obviously the Beckham name is worth something and they don’t want someone trading off it and using it to create their own brand.'
