The former professional footballer then added, “My mum was incredibly proud and and praised the king for his long-standing dedication to helping others.”

At the same time, Beckham also shared his long-time admiration for the British royal family stating, “I’ve always been a huge royalist. I was brought up in a family that adored and loved everything with the Royal Family.”

He further went on speaking highly of King Charles, noting how he had been an inspiring figure, “The King is an incredible man he has not just been incredible for the last five or 10 years but has been incredible for decades.”
