The hacked emails also suggested allegations surrounding his stance in the Scottish referendum and investing in loss-making companies to reduce his tax bill.David's representatives dismissed the claims at the time, stating that the emails had been 'hacked and doctored' from a private account.A spokesperson said: 'This story is based on outdated material taken out of context from hacked and doctored private emails from a third party server and gives a deliberately inaccurate picture.'David was formally knighted by King Charles III in recognition of his services to sport and charity in November 2025. Katherine and David had allegedly been at odds years earlier, when she took to Twitter in 2012 to deny she had had an affair with him, a decision which reportedly left the England star utterly furious.In 2018, Katherine claimed she was still waiting for an apology from the sports star.

You just think, ''Aw, I wasn't doing anything''. To get caught up in that wasn't pleasant. I don't know why, again, that was aimed at me.''I also don't feel the need to defend this, by the way. I know what I've done and when I got the OBE it was given to me for music, and for charity'.When asked whether she was angry with David for his alleged comments, Katherine added: 'It's obviously disappointing. I've never heard anything from them about it.'Elsewhere at Wimbledon, the stars were out in glamorous force, with Tess Daly, Maura Higgins, Amanda Holden and more glamming up.
