Former football star David Beckham recently shared a remarkable encounter he had with Queen Elizabeth II back in 2002 that left him speechless.
Reflecting on the moment, Beckham recounted how the Queen's inquiry about his family left him in awe, considering his deep-rooted respect for the monarch.
The ex-England international, known for his illustrious career with Manchester United, was rendered speechless during a celebratory event following his sixth Premier League victory.
Recalling the incident, Beckham reminisced about the Queen's question regarding his wife Victoria and their children, to which he found himself unable to respond due to the overwhelming nature of the encounter.
The football icon admitted to being completely taken aback by the interaction, describing it as an unforgettable moment that highlighted the Queen's grace and presence.
Tragically, after a reign of 70 years, Queen Elizabeth II passed away at Balmoral Castle in Scotland on September 8, at the age of 96.
In a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, Beckham expressed his deep sorrow over the Queen's demise, emphasizing her profound impact on the nation and the world.
He praised her unwavering dedication and leadership, acknowledging the comfort and inspiration she provided during challenging times.
Amidst the mourning for the late Queen, Beckham paid homage to her earlier this year during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations, underscoring her unparalleled service and national leadership over seven decades.
The football club owner urged for a grand British celebration to honor her remarkable reign, highlighting the enduring legacy she leaves behind.
Following the news of Queen Elizabeth II's passing, a wave of tributes poured in from prominent figures worldwide, including Beckham.
Elton John, who had a close relationship with the royal family, lauded Princess Diana's enduring influence and warmth, expressing sorrow over her absence.
Meanwhile, Prince William broke his silence in a poignant video message, reminiscing about his beloved grandmother and her passion for environmental conservation.
Prince William, who was set to attend the Earthshot Innovation Summit in New York, expressed regret at being unable to join the event in person due to the Queen's passing.
Despite the somber circumstances, he commended the summit's focus on addressing environmental challenges and emphasized the urgent need for sustainable solutions.
The Earthshot Prize, initiated by Prince William in 2020, has evolved into a standalone non-profit organization dedicated to promoting environmental innovation and conservation efforts.
In his message, Prince William urged global collaboration in championing eco-friendly initiatives and fostering positive change for the planet.
Emphasizing the critical role of innovation in combating environmental crises, he called for collective action to accelerate the transition to sustainable practices.
As the president of the Earthshot Prize, Prince William remains committed to advancing environmental causes and inspiring transformative solutions for a greener future.
