In a meeting with King Charles where they "compared beekeeping tips", former England football legend David Beckham was honoured as an ambassador for The King's Foundation.
Joy-filled photos released to celebrate Saturday's announcement showed the pair sharing a laugh at Highgrove's doorstep, while other snaps showed 49-year-old David testing his carpentry skills amongst foundation students participating in woodworking courses at the Snowdon School of Furniture.
Speaking about their meeting, David said: “Having developed a love for the countryside I’m also on a personal mission to learn more about rural skills which is so central to the foundation’s work. “It was inspiring to hear from the King about the work of His Majesty’s foundation during my recent visit to Highgrove Gardens – and compare beekeeping tips!” Since reportedly buying a converted barn in the Cotswolds, Beckham has posted on social media about his bee keeping.
He uploaded an Instagram video on World Bee Day last year showing him working on a beehive and in another post he is pictured next to a hive with the words “Be kind & they will be calm”.The football icon met King Charles in the verdant Royal gardens of Highgrove, the private country residence of His Majesty, to gain deeper insights into the charity's operations.The former England captain also had a chat with students from the Metiers d'art Embroidery Fellowship, a programme run in partnership with CHANEL and Le19M.
