Sir David Beckham has described being knighted by King Charles during a ceremony at Windsor Castle as “my proudest moment”.
The former Manchester United and England star was accompanied by his wife – now known as Lady Beckham – and his parents, Ted and Sandra, as he was honoured for his services to sport and charity.
Sir David, 50, was dressed in a grey three-piece suit made by his fashion designer wife, which was inspired by a suit King Charles wore when he was younger.
The footballer said: “[King Charles] was quite impressed with my suit. He’s the most elegantly dressed man that I know, so he inspired quite a few of my looks over the years and he definitely inspired this look.”
Lady Victoria Beckham received an OBE in 2017 for services to the fashion industry, while Sir David was appointed an officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 2003.
Sir David played 115 times for his country as well as for Manchester United, Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, Paris St-Germain and AC Milan, retiring in 2013.
He also played a key role in securing the London 2012 Olympics, and has been an ambassador for Unicef since 2005.
Sir David became an ambassador for The King’s Foundation in 2024, supporting King Charles’ education programme and efforts to ensure young people have a greater understanding of nature.
