"To have played for and captained my country was the greatest privilege of my career and literally a boyhood dream come true."
"I'm so lucky to be able to do the work that I do and I'm grateful to be recognised for work that gives me so much fulfilment."
Former England football captain David Beckham has been awarded a knighthood in the King's Birthday Honours, recognizing his contributions to sports and charitable work. In a heartfelt statement, Beckham reflected on growing up with patriotic values and fulfilling his dream of captaining his country. He has sustained a significant impact off the pitch as well, working with various organizations that support communities and inspire youth. The honor comes at a moment of personal reflection for Beckham, who married Victoria in 1999 and has four children.
