David Beckham posing with his Hollywood Walk of Fame star in Los Angeles in the US.

It has filled my heart with such joy to see David Beckham, my all-time favourite footballer and sports star, being honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The Manchester United legend might be retired from the beautiful game, but he is still an instrumental figure in the football world as the president and co-owner of Inter Miami CF, where football icons such as Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets currently ply their trade.

Becks, as his legions of worldwide fans refer to him, is also the co-owner of Salford City F.C., and he continues to offer his football insights on shows such as CBS Sports' UEFA Champions League coverage, where he has appeared as a pundit and guest analyst alongside some of the game’s biggest names.

And with the 2026 Fifa World Cup currently taking place across the United States, Mexico and Canada, the 51-year-old superstar has added yet another accolade to his name.
