David Beckham hospitalised as wife Victoria shares post-surgery recovery pic: ‘Get well soon daddy'
Former English footballer David Beckham is on the mend after undergoing surgery to correct a long-standing wrist injury—just weeks after being named in King Charles III's Birthday Honours list. The 50-year-old, now officially set to be knighted for his services to football and charity, was photographed in a hospital gown with his arm in a sling on Friday.

The image, shared by his wife Victoria Beckham on her Instagram Stories, showed the Inter Miami CF co-owner smiling from a hospital bed despite the fresh surgery. 'Get well soon daddy,' she wrote alongside a heart emoji. David Beckham suffered an injury during a friendly match against South Africa in 2003
According to report in People magazine, David's procedure was to finally address complications from a 2003 match injury, when he broke his wrist playing for England against South Africa. A dissolvable screw inserted during earlier treatment reportedly failed to dissolve properly over time, causing discomfort that worsened in recent months.
Victoria later shared another photo, this time of David at home, holding a handmade beaded bracelet reading 'Get well soon'—a likely gift from one of their four children, adding a sweet family touch to the recovery.
This brief hospital stay comes during an otherwise celebratory chapter in David's life. Earlier this month, it was officially announced that he would receive a knighthood, with the football icon set to become Sir David Beckham. The honour, long speculated, was met with overwhelming joy by David and his family. He reportedly took his mother Sandra out for lunch after the announcement, where she got emotional over the recognition.
On the professional front, David continues to juggle his business empire, including the soaring popularity of his Major League Soccer club, Inter Miami. The team—boosted by the global spotlight surrounding Lionel Messi—is preparing for its new $1 billion stadium, Miami Freedom Park, expected to open in time for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Despite whispers of past family tensions—especially involving their son Brooklyn and daughter-in-law Nicola Peltz—the Beckhams appear united, with recent Father's Day posts including heartfelt tributes from all of their children.

From Virat Kohli's 149 To Rishabh Pant's 146: Top 5 Indian Batting Masterclasses At Edgbaston
photoDetails english 2923508 Updated:Jun 28, 2025, 02:28 PM IST Virat Kohli – 149 (2018) 1 / 7 Kohli's epic 149 in the 1st Test of 2018 stood out as a masterclass under pressure. Coming in at 54/2, he braved a swing from Anderson and Curran to rescue India, steering the lower order late on. His innings spanned 225 balls and kept India within 13 runs of England after the first innings. Rishabh Pant – 146 (2022) 2 / 7 Pant's electrifying 146 off just 111 balls during the rescheduled 5th Test in 2022 was a game-changing knock. Coming in at 98/5, he unleashed a counter-attacking barrage, including a record-breaking ton off 89 balls, propelling India to a commanding position. Sachin Tendulkar – 122 (1996) 3 / 7 Tendulkar's 122 in 1996 marked the first Test century by an Indian at Edgbaston. Battling a strong bowling attack, he struck 19 boundaries and a six, cementing his legacy in English conditions. Ravindra Jadeja – 104 (2022) 4 / 7 Jadeja complemented Pant wonderfully with a composed 83* in 2022, and in the same match, he notched a century, scoring 104 at Edgbaston, reinforcing his value as a genuine all-rounder and toning up India's recovery effort. Mohinder Amarnath – 79 (1986) 5 / 7 While not a century, Amarnath's gritty 79 in 1986 showcased classic technique against swinging conditions, earning him the fifth spot in this list. Though less documented online, it remains a celebrated performance among Indian cricket historians. Jadeja & Pant Again At Edgbaston 6 / 7 Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh Pant will again present at the Edgbaston test against England, and the team will rely on their experience at this venue for their maiden victory at the venue. 7 / 7
