David Beckham Officially Receives Knighthood Honor

Former Manchester United, Real Madrid, AC Milan, Los Angeles Galaxy, and Paris Saint-Germain player David Beckham is now carving out a career in management with Inter Miami. The “Spice Boy” is also a savvy businessman. On Tuesday, the ex-footballer experienced a significant moment as he was officially knighted by King Charles III during a ceremony at Windsor Castle, as reported by Footem.in, complete with images.

Photos show the King bestowing the honor on the 50-year-old Beckham by gently touching his shoulder with a sword. It’s worth noting that Beckham, honored for his contributions to sports and charitable organizations, was appointed knight in June. This is the highest title, and he is now addressed as Sir David Beckham. He was joined by his wife, Lady Victoria, and his parents. Wearing his medal, Beckham shared his thoughts after this monumental event, stating, “For a young lad from East London, being here at Windsor Castle, honored by His Majesty the King – the most important and respected institution in the world – is truly a great moment.”
