David Beckham has been adorned with praise and congratulations after being honoured with a knighthood this week. The 50-year-old Manchester United icon was given the prestigious title for his philanthropic work over years.

The move comes after reports that he had labelled the Honours Committee “unappreciative c****” for overlooking him in 2013. Beckham’s family have been quick to hail him up for his achievement with both his sons Romeo and Cruz taking to social media to dedicate posts to him.

While daughter Harper does not have social media, David’s eldest, Brooklyn did not mention the great honour, at least publicly.

It follows claims the 26 year old is not speaking to David and wife Victoria and he previously missed both his mum and dad’s 50th birthday celebrations, according to BirminghamLive.

Romeo, 22, shared a snap with his dad from David’s 50th birthday bash, writing “So so proud of you,” coupled with a string of four white heart emojis after the announcement was made

Cruz, aged 20, wasn’t far behind in expressing his own pride over his father’s latest accolade, also using Instagram stories as his platform of choice.

Musician Cruz chose a serene photograph of his cherished father, beaming amidst a woodland scene, to announce: “I’m so proud dad I love you” and he followed it up by hinting at bigger things with: “Sir David Beckham Has a nice ring to it”.

Brooklyn Beckham has remained silent on the matter online, choosing to carry on as normal.

His silence is telling, as the aspiring chef shared images of three packets of pretzel pita chips on his Instagram story following the news that David was being knighted by His Majesty.

Brooklyn later shared a photo on his Instagram story of a tin of caviar alongside a bottle of his own brand, Cloud 23, hot sauce, a bottle of wine and two drinking glasses.
