SCION AND SCION'S GIRLFRIEND OF THE WEEK

Last season, Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s 16-year-old son, Rocco Ritchie, made his modeling debut in the Alexander Wang x Adidas campaign.

But it was really her 20-year-old daughter, Lourdes Leon, who stole the show during New York Fashion Week, when she and her mother sat side-by-side in the front row at Wang, upstaging even the Jenners.

This season, however, it seems Ritchie’s stepping out on his own. He and his girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, 16, made a splash over the weekend at London Fashion Week when they sat front row at Versus Versace and hit the town after. And while they weren’t exactly “twinning,” it should be noted that both sported dark nail polish.

Ritchie and Turnbull have been dating since at least last summer, when they were first photographed together. Turnbull is an aspiring print and runway model, and is signed to Select Model Management. She made her own debut last January at London Fashion Week, where she walked for Maharishi, and she’s also landed jobs with Puma and i-D magazine.

While Ritchie has the more famous parent of the two, Turnbull’s father and uncle, Johnny and Alex Turnbull, were in the post-punk band 23 Skidoo, and she’s been known to hang out with other British scions like Brooklyn Beckham. Ritchie also seems like the most camera shy—he spends his time skateboarding and doesn’t have a public-facing Instagram account—perhaps his girlfriend can help bring him out of his shell and into the mainstream. They’ve both certainly got the look to be the next Jaden Smith and Sarah Snyder, who made out all over the front row at New York Fashion Week last season. Although we hope Ritchie and Turnbull keep the PDA to a minimum.

And, hey, at least it doesn’t seem like Richie made anyone wait for an hour until his arrival, unlike mom Madonna last week at Philipp Plein.
