"It was an absolute pleasure to be at Buckingham Palace today. I'm proud to be British, honoured and humbled to receive my OBE from the Duke of Cambridge," Beckham told the BBC. "If you dream big and work hard you can accomplish great things. I'm so happy to share this very special occasion with my parents and husband; without their love and support, none of this would be possible.”
Also honoured at the investiture ceremony was former heptathlete Jessica Ennis-Hill who was made a Dame, and actor Mark Rylance received a knighthood.
