The King and his new knight, who have formed a heartwarming friendship in recent years thanks to their shared love of gardening and bees, smiled, shook hands and chatted briefly during the moving ceremony.

Speaking later, Sir David admitted he became emotional as he received the top honour, and revealed Charles complimented him on the suit Victoria had designed and gifted him.

‘I’ve obviously been very lucky in my career to win what I’ve earned and do what I’ve done, but to receive such a knighthood honor is beyond anything I ever thought I would receive,’ he said.

‘To be honest, it’s quite a moment for a young boy from the East End of London, born in Leytonstone and here at Windsor Castle, to be honored by His Majesty the King – the most important and respected institution in the world. This is undoubtedly my proudest moment.’

Romeo Beckham later posted a Beckham family photo with Sir David, Victoria, Cruz and Harper; but not Brooklyn, where they have a high-profile dispute

This is also a dream that Sir David probably never thought would come true after waiting for so long.

Sir David’s son Romeo, 23, later posted a Beckham family photo with his parents and siblings Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14.

But there was no sign of Brooklyn, 26, the eldest child with whom he had a high-profile dispute.

Asked if he could speak to Charles during the ceremony, Sir David said: ‘He was very impressed with my team. He’s the most elegantly dressed man I know, so he’s inspired so many of my looks over the years, and he definitely inspired this look, too.

‘It was something my wife did to me. I looked at old photos of her in morning suits when I was quite young and thought: OK, that’s what I want to wear, so I gave it to my wife and she did it too.’

The father of four was knighted alongside former Work and Pensions Secretary Sir Mel Stride for his political and public services.

The 50-year-old’s devoted wife and proud parents, Ted and Sandra, smiled as they bowed and knelt before the monarch, who gently touched each shoulder with his sword as the string quartet played the hit Golden from the KPop Demon Hunters movie.

As a young child, he would go to the Horse Guards Parade with his monarchist grandparents to joyfully watch the Joining of the Colours.

Members of his family would religiously stand up for the Queen’s Christmas Day speech.

David will then hold a small celebration for his close friends and family.

Their children Romeo, Cruz and Harper are also expected to attend; However, unfortunately, his eldest son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola will not be able to attend the ceremony due to family disagreements.

When it was announced in the spring that his father would be knighted, Brooklyn neither publicly nor privately congratulated him, while his other two sons made a big fuss about the news on social media.

Ten years ago this time, receiving a knighthood would have been unimaginable for the former England captain.

He was on the verge of being crowned ‘Sir’ in 2014, but concerns were later raised after he became involved in a tax evasion scheme thought to be legitimate.

And he took aim at the honors committee, which removed him from the gong list in February 2017, shattering his gong hopes.

However, he continued his philanthropic work. Daily Mail announced in June that Beckham was nominated for the award by Unicef ​​and the British Fashion Council, the charity he has worked with for more than 20 years.

Sources said both organizations were ‘exploring ideas’ on whether they should put Beckham forward and had received very positive feedback.

It’s understood some people involved in the decision were very impressed by Beckham’s birthday fundraiser; Instead of gifts, Beckham asked people to donate to the fund to help children around the world, especially girls.
