King Charles III Honours Football Sensation David Beckham With The Knighthood

English Football Star David Beckham was knighted by King Charles III in a ceremony at Windsor Castle on Tuesday.

During the ceremony, the former player bent his knee like Beckham.

King Charles tapped his shoulders with a sword blade, transforming "Becks" into Sir David Beckham.

Beckham stated that this is without a doubt his finest moment following Tuesday's wedding at Windsor Castle.

In addition to his football career, Beckham has a very public presence as a fashion model, husband to Victoria "Posh" Beckham of the Spice Girls who is now Lady Beckham and Bend It Like Beckham movie muse.

The 50-year-old was honoured for his contributions to sports and charity, having worked for two decades with UNICEF, the United Nations Children's Fund and campaigned with a UK-based charity dedicated to malaria eradication.

Beckham is the only English Football Player to have scored in three World Cups and his career featured Manchester United's triple-winning campaign in 1999, when they won the Premier League, the FA Cup and the Champions League.
