He's had a dramatic week celebrating his 50th birthday, which saw numerous lavish events and a family feud erupt over the absence of his son Brooklyn from all of them.
But David Beckham got back to work on Thursday as he opened Nespresso's new flagship boutique in London with some celebrity pals.
The former footballer donned a smart navy suit with thin blue pinstripes, adding a black t-shirt to his slick look.
He accessorised with a dark brown belt and sported some tan trainers with a white sole.
The event was held at the coffee brand's new location in Covent Garden and David was joined by a host of celebrities and internet personalities.
It comes after the former England captain shared a sweet tribute to his wife Victoria for 'always making him laugh' as he shared even more snaps from his star-studded birthday bash.
The footballer celebrated the occasion with a glitzy party at London's Core restaurant in Notting Hill, with A-List pals Tom Cruise, Eva Longoria and Guy Ritchie among those in attendance.
Taking to Instagram to share a gallery of black and white images, David couldn't contain his smile as wife Victoria gave an incredible speech.
Sharing the same snap to his Story, David gushed over the fashion mogul, 51, he penned: 'Thank you for always laughing with me and at me'.
Meanwhile in the sweet snap, daughter Harper, 13, joined the couple at the top of the table and was seen beaming as her mum spoke.
During the night Harper also stood up to share some 'special words' about David while youngest son Cruz, 20, performed a 'special surprise' song on his guitar.
Second oldest son Romeo, 22, cut a dapper figure in a tuxedo as he carried over David's favourite lemon drizzle cake, which was covered in candles.
It was exclusively reported over the weekend that David and Victoria's oldest son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, failed to attend any of his dads birthday events, with the reason behind their fallout revealed here by Mail+.
Brooklyn missed out on David's early celebrations in Miami last month as well as parties in the Cotswolds, France, London and a boys fishing trip in Scotland last week.
Victoria also shared a number of the snaps from the bash including a stunning one with daughter Harper and another with longtime best pal Eva.
She penned: 'So wonderful to round off an amazing week celebrating @davidbeckham at 50 with incredible friends.
'Still laughing and dancing after all these years!! We love you all so much xxxx'
But as the party continued at the restaurant into the early hours, neighbours complained leading to a visit from two council officers at 3:35am.
An onlooker told The Sun: 'David's party really went off and the longer time went on, the louder the music seemed to get.
'Some neighbours weren't very happy when it was still so loud at 2am and leaned out windows to see where the racket was from.'
Kensington and Chelsea Council told MailOnline that advice was given to minimise disruption and onlookers revealed that the music stopped immediately.

They said: 'We have a very responsive and professional team who investigate noise complaints and take action where necessary.
'Usually, and in this case, that means issuing some advice at a location, so disruption is kept to a minimum for residents living nearby.'
Representatives for the Beckhams have been contacted by MailOnline for comment.
Another celebration saw David enjoy a 'boys' fishing trip with sons Romeo and Cruz but Brooklyn had declined the invitation by his father.
The Mail can reveal that David invited his eldest son on short break six months ago when he began planning, yet the 26-year-old failed to go despite arriving in the UK the day they went.
Sources suggest that Brooklyn's decision was influenced by his wife Nicola Peltz.
'Brooklyn was asked to join them ages ago,' said one.
'Then he came to London in time but he didn't go. Once again David made the best of things and had a great time with Cruz and Romeo.'
Meanwhile, claims that Brooklyn and Nicola were rebuffed when they asked David and Victoria to celebrate David's birthday privately but were said to be untrue.
Sources close to Nicola, 30, told US website TMZ that they wanted 'to get together privately' to avoid Romeo's girlfriend Kim Turnbull as the couple are said to 'have a problem' with her.
However, Kim didn't attend the family party in the Cotswolds last Wednesday Brooklyn and Nicola could have gone to that and avoided her.
Despite the snub, David still offered an olive branch to his son as he shared snaps from the trip, as he captioned one of his posts: 'You were missed @brooklynbeckham.'
