POLL: Should King Charles give David Beckham a knighthood? Vote now

Prince William delighted fans on Tuesday with a royal engagement at RAF Northolt, joined by a rather famous face.

David Beckham joined the Prince to mark the end of the London Air Ambulance’s ‘Up Against Time’ appeal, which has raised £16m for two new helicopters.

Prince William and David’s appearance amazed fans, with some calling for the former footballer to be knighted.

X user @chrisjordanqpr said: “David Beckham is such a lovely man. I really hope he gets his Knighthood soon. It will be very well deserved – a credit to this country and shows time and again what a kind and decent person he is.”

While @tomkoczian wrote: “Give David Beckham a knighthood. About time it happened.”

David is England’s best-known footballer and is thought to be close friends with Prince William.

The Prince of Wales personally asked the decorated athlete to become the public face of Omaze house draw – which has raised £4million for Up Against Time’s helicopter appeal.

Speaking at the event this week David said: “I’m an East End boy so every time we saw them in the air it made us very proud.

“As soon as I was asked to be involved by Prince William it was something I was very honoured (to do) in all honesty.”

In 2003 David received an OBE, and fans are calling for the former England captain to be given another honour.
