British soccer legend David Beckham is reportedly set to be knighted as part of King Charles III's upcoming birthday honors.

David Beckham, the former England soccer captain who has been an ambassador for the U.N. children’s fund, is to receive a knighthood in next week’s honors list from King Charles III, according to U.K.

David Beckham is set to be awarded a knighthood in King Charles's annual birthday honors, which will be revealed next week. BBC Sport first reported the news, though a government spokesperson declined to comment on “speculation on honours.” After he is knighted, he will be Sir David, and his wife Victoria will become “Lady Victoria.”
