David Beckham likely to receive knighthood soon. What will be his title?
Former England football star David Beckham is reportedly set to receive a knighthood in the upcoming King's Birthday Honours list, marking a major milestone for the global sports icon. The former England captain, who already holds an OBE awarded in 2003, will be named a knight in the official list expected next week, according to The Sun. David Beckham, who recently turned 50, has long been tipped for the honour over his football career and extensive charity work, particularly as a UNICEF goodwill ambassador. Should the honour be confirmed, he would formally become 'Sir David', while his wife, fashion designer and former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, would assume the courtesy title of 'Lady Beckham.' His path to knighthood was reportedly delayed after HMRC flagged concerns over an alleged tax avoidance scheme, which halted a planned honour in 2014. Speculation around the accolade reignited after Beckham's 2013 retirement and reached new highs following the success of the Emmy-winning Beckham Netflix documentary. During a conversation at the Chelsea Flower Show last month, King Charles appeared to make a cryptic reference to the upcoming honour, asking Beckham if he had 'received his 50th birthday present,' to which the former footballer replied: 'It was incredible, thank you, it was very kind.' The Queen added, 'I'm glad you got the roses.' Beckham, who earned 115 caps and captained England 59 times, is the only Englishman to score in three separate World Cups. His club career highlights include Manchester United's legendary treble-winning season in 1999. After stints at Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, and AC Milan, he co-founded US team Inter Miami, helping bring international football stars stateside.

Needless to mention, her concert ensemble for Day 1 has once again grabbed our attention. Beyoncé was the perfect Versace woman for the musical extravaganza.

A white belt, equipped with spiky embellishments, amped up the drama. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Donatella Versace (@donatella_versace) The standout element of her body-hugging silhouette were the white faux fur chaps. The unique overlays were attached to her belt as they plunged in length, skimming her feet. Frilly details and fringe patterns covered the chaps like tassels in equal measure, which added some oomph to the fit. A pair of white opera gloves sealed her feminine-chic cowboy avatar. For accessories, Beyoncé went with stacked golden bands secured around her waist on the belt. A multi-layered golden choker around her neck, contributing to a fierce twist. Jewel-encrusted sunglasses matched the sparkly vibe of her bodysuit. Meanwhile, the enormous white cowboy hat was a nod to the concert theme.
