David Beckham Set to Receive Knighthood in King Charles’ Birthday Honours

Posted : 07 June 2025

David Beckham is expected to receive a knighthood in King Charles' upcoming Birthday Honours list, marking a significant moment of recognition for his contributions to both football and British public life. The former England captain, who was previously appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 2003, has long been considered for further honours, having reportedly been first nominated for a knighthood in 2011.

 

While past controversies involving leaked emails in 2017 cast a temporary shadow on his chances, Beckham's achievements and influence have remained prominent on the national and international stage.

 

Throughout his illustrious career, Beckham earned 115 caps for England and represented top clubs including Manchester United, Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, Paris Saint-Germain, and AC Milan before retiring in 2013. Off the pitch, his efforts have extended into philanthropy and public service.

 

Since 2005, he has served as a UNICEF ambassador and later launched the David Beckham UNICEF Fund to support vulnerable children globally. He was also instrumental in bringing the London 2012 Olympics to fruition and recently became an ambassador for The King’s Foundation, which focuses on educating youth about nature and the environment.

 

Beyond his charitable work, Beckham remains active in football management and development. He co-owns Salford City FC and is president and co-owner of Inter Miami CF, a Major League Soccer team in the United States. His foundation associated with the club focuses on empowering underserved communities through sport.

 

Widely admired for his dedication and influence, Beckham continues to be a respected figure in sports and philanthropy. His former teammate Wayne Rooney praised his enduring commitment and the global impact of his charitable efforts, calling him "a great ambassador for football and the country."
