David Beckham Says His Kids Asked About Perks After His Knighthood

His answer points to a symbolic honor, with the only change he notes being nicer notepaper.

Overview

  • Beckham, in a talkSPORT interview Friday, March 27, said his children asked if they would get any privileges and he told them absolutely not.
  • He added that the only thing that has changed since the honor is his notepaper for thank-you letters.
  • He was knighted on Nov. 4, 2025 at Windsor Castle by King Charles for services to sport and charity.
  • Victoria Beckham and his parents attended the ceremony, and his three younger children celebrated after, while his eldest son Brooklyn was not there and later said in January he was estranged.
  • He is set to serve as an ambassador for The King’s Foundation and help horticulturist Frances Tophill create a garden for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in May 2026.
