David Beckham is currently recuperating in hospital following surgery on his wrist, which has been troubling him with pain. Victoria Beckham, his devoted wife, shared an image of David resting in bed, his arm supported by a sling.
"Get well soon, Daddy," she captioned the photo, showing David with a smile on his face, donned in a hospital gown. She also crafted a friendship bracelet for him, featuring white beads spelling out 'Get Well Soon'.
The specifics of what led to the former England captain's hospitalisation have not been disclosed by the couple.
A person close to David revealed that Sir David had discreetly undergone surgery to mend a broken wrist from an injury dating back 22 years, incurred during a friendly match against South Africa in 2003.
"It had been giving him problems recently and so he wanted to get it fixed," the source stated.
They further mentioned that David intended to leave the hospital shortly and "hoped" to make it to Atlanta in time for Inter Miami's next crucial Fifa World Cup game against his old team Paris Saint Germain on Sunday, reports the Mirror.

This health setback for David arises amidst a reported family disagreement involving his eldest son Brooklyn and Brooklyn's wife, Nicola Peltz. Brooklyn, aged 26, and Nicola, aged 30, have been at the centre of media speculation regarding a supposed 'feud' with his family, including his parents David, aged 50, and Victoria, aged 51.

Brooklyn expressed his affection for Nicola, tagging her in the post, and jokingly referred to her as his world by writing "my" alongside a globe emoji. He also added a heart emoji, describing her as "My absolute angel."
A few hours later, Brooklyn took to his page again to extend a rare display of affection towards his family, specifically his grandmother Sandra, on her birthday. He shared a photo of the two together, writing: "Happy birthday nanny xx love you so much."
This gesture is believed to be his first public outreach to his family on social media.
Meanwhile, David posted a heartfelt message to celebrate his mother's birthday, surprisingly giving a nod to Brooklyn despite the recent string of social media snubs from his son.

The post's caption also included a mention of Brooklyn, despite the reported rift between them. Notably, Brooklyn has been absent from several significant family events in recent months, including Victoria's 51st birthday and David's 50th birthday celebrations in Paris and London.
Both Brooklyn and Nicola have remained silent on David's recent knighthood achievement.
However, Brooklyn did take the time to wish Nicola's father, Nelson, a happy birthday in a touching post shared on his Stories earlier this week.

Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos ridiculed by tech giant over wedding detail
Billionaire Jeff Bezos has just tied the knot with Lauren Sanchez in a luxurious ceremony in picturesque Venice, Italy. Their long-awaited day, dubbed the 'wedding of the century,' was flooded with A-list stars and celebrity friends who journeyed to enjoy the $20 million wedding. Despite designer dresses and crisp tuxes, there was one aspect of the fabulous day that raised eyebrows - the couple's initial invitation. The invite, which was obtained by ABC News earlier this week, featured what appeared to be computer-generated designs of butterflies, doves, the Venice canals, gondolas, and feathers in purple, gray and pink. But, on Thursday, Adobe Express - a content creator tool - took to Instagram with a subtle slight to the bride and groom. After receiving mixed reviews about their 'cringe' wedding invitation, the creative tool posted a much more sophisticated-looking version. 'I know you said no gifts, but… it really only took us a couple minutes. XOXO, Adobe Express,' the post's caption read. The new design was set on a cream backdrop with one lone butterfly at the top above a sleek line and the words, 'Jeff & Lauren.' In large, swirly font, it read, 'Join us in Venice' before it mirrored the text on the newlywed's invitation. 'We're excited for you to join us! We have one early request: please, no gifts,' it read. 'Instead, we're making contributions in your honor and with gratitude to you for making the journey to celebrate with us in Venice. 'Donations on your behalf are being made to the UNESCO Venice Office to safeguard the city's irreplaceable cultural heritage, to CORILA to restore the lagoon habitats that protect Venice's future, and to Venice International University to support research and education for sustainable solutions. 'This magical place has gifted us unforgettable memories. Our hope is that through these efforts and by you joining us, Venice will continue to inspire wonder for generations to come.' Fans were quick to flood the comments, praising Adobe Express for its cleverness as it poked fun at the newlyweds. 'Jeff could have used a little help from Express,' one user stated. 'The Adobe Express social team working overtime for this masterpiece,' another wrote. 'Jeff Bezos works hard but the Adobe social team works harder,' someone else joked. 'The world is on fire, but I deeply respect the shade game of whoever is running the @AdobeExpress Instagram account. Dragging Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez on their ugly Venice wedding invites,' someone wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. Others were shocked after realizing the invitation with birds and butterflies was that which was actually sent out to celebrity guests. 'Wait... what?!? They sent the second slide? Seriously?' a comment said. 'I was so confused - I legit thought the first one *was* the invite. What in the Word Clip Art is going on in the second slide??' a user asked. Last night it was revealed Bezos, 61, and Sanchez, 55, have already married legally ahead of today's ceremony on San Giorgio Maggiore Island. Last night it was revealed Bezos and Sanchez have already married legally ahead of today's ceremony on San Giorgio Maggiore island. It came as guests including Kylie Jenner were forced to take cover from a freak thunderstorm during the couple's pre-wedding party inside the historic Madonna dell'Orto cloisters. A-listers including many of the Kardashian sisters and Kris Jenner, Oprah Winfrey and Orlando Bloom jetted in to Italy earlier this week for the nuptials which come two years after Bezos asked Sanchez to marry him on his $500 million superyacht. But preparations for the couple's big day have been far from plain sailing with protesters planning to disrupt the celebrations, even forcing a late venue change.
