David Beckham to Be Knighted in King Charles III’s Birthday Honours
Football icon David Beckham is expected to be knighted next week as part of King Charles III’s birthday honours, marking a significant moment in his journey from sports stardom to public service and philanthropy. The 50-year-old former England captain, who earned an OBE in 2003, will now reportedly be elevated to “Sir David Beckham”, recognising his contributions not just to football but to British society, charitable work, and environmental advocacy.
The announcement, likely to be part of the upcoming King’s Birthday Honours list, will officially bestow knighthood upon David Beckham, a move that has been anticipated for over a decade. The decision also reflects his broad contributions beyond football, from charity work with UNICEF to his ambassadorship for The King’s Foundation.
