David Beckham failed to get a knighthood for yet another year as King Charles’s Birthday Honours list was announced tonight ahead of Trooping the Colour on Saturday.
More than 1,000 people from across the UK received honours in this year’s list including Post Office campaigner Alan Bates, former prime minister Gordon Brown and artist Tracey Emin.
The highest award went to Mr Brown who was made a Companion of Honour, while Sir Alan was knighted in recognition of his campaigning work which highlighted the Post Office Horizon scandal.
Artist Tracy Emin, actress Imelda Staunton and fashion accessories designer Anya Hindmarch were all made dames in the list, while writer Armando Iannucci was made a CBE and cyclist Mark Cavendish was knighted.
Showbiz names included singer Rebecca Ferguson, Duran Duran frontman Simon Le Bon, Countdown’s Susie Dent and Strictly Come Dancing’s Amy Dowden.

In the sporting world, former cyclist Chris Boardman and former Liverpool midfielder Graeme Souness were made CBEs, while former England footballer Karen Carney was made an OBE.
But Mr Beckham’s name was nowhere to be found in Friday’s list just days after rumours were swirling around his knighthood following the announcement he’s been made a new ambassador of the King’s Foundation charity.
On Tuesday, Charles and the ex-football legend were all smiles as they celebrated the work of the charity alongside other celebrity ambassadors including Sir Rod Stewart and Naomi Campbell at its inaugural awards ceremony which showcased the work of students, teachers, alumni and partners who have contributed to the organisation’s charitable efforts.
Charles and former Manchester United midfielder Beckham were both seen laughing and heard discussing England’s chances in the Euro 2024 championships.
Meanwhile, Sir Rod shared a joke with Beckham as he took to the stage to present an award and teased the former footballer that his knighthood was “coming soon”

David Beckham is the newest ambassador for the King’s Foundation
Of his joke at Beckham’s expense, Sir Rod told reporters at the event: “Someone has to lighten the atmosphere in the room you know – he’s a good sport.”
Out of the 1,077 people honoured in the 2024 King’s Birthday Honours list, 509 were women – representing 48 percent of the total – and 10 percent of all successful candidates were from an ethnic minority background.
At the CBE level and above, 40 percent of recipients were women.
The youngest recipient in the list was 20-year-old Shamza Butt who received a British Empire Medal for her work at the voluntary development programme National Citizen Service on behalf of young people.
