In June 2003, Queen Elizabeth II gave David Beckham an OBE. In January 2005, David Beckham became a UNICEF ambassador.

When he moved from Manchester United F.C. to Real Madrid in 2003, he became the highest paid footballer in the world (this has long since been surpassed).

Early life

David Beckham was born at Whipps Cross University Hospital in London, England.[6] He was the son of Ted and Sandra Georgina West.[7] He grew up in the Manchester football youth system along with Ryan Giggs, Nicky Butt, Phil Neville, Gary Neville, and Paul Scholes who all turned out to be famous footballers. Beckham’s maternal grandfather was Jewish,[8] and he describes himself as "half-Jewish",[9] and wrote in his autobiography "I've probably had more contact with Judaism than with any other religion".[10]
