Speaking to the BBC after the ceremony, Beckham said, “I couldn't be prouder. People know how patriotic I am - I love my country. I've always said how important the monarchy is to my family.”
He continued, “I'm lucky enough to have travelled around the world and all people want to talk to me about is our monarchy. It makes me proud.”
Beckham was joined by his wife Victoria and his parents Sandra and David at Windsor Castle for the prestigious event. Victoria, who received an OBE in 2017 for her services to the fashion industry, designed and tailored the elegant suit her husband wore for the occasion.

Beckham revealed that King Charles complimented his outfit, saying, “[King Charles] was quite impressed with my suit,” before adding, “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.
"It was something that my wife made me.
"I looked at old pictures of him when he was quite young in morning suits and I was like 'OK, that's what I want to wear' - so I gave it to my wife and she did it."
