David Beckham's Triumphant Week: Inter Miami's MLS Cup Glory and Knighthood Ceremony

David Beckham BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

David Beckham’s life has been a whirlwind lately and the past few days have been some of the most significant in his post-playing career. The big story is Inter Miami winning the 2025 MLS Cup by beating the Vancouver Whitecaps 3-1 at Chase Stadium. Beckham as co-owner lifted the trophy in Miami style and made history becoming the first person to win the MLS Cup both as a player and as an owner. He won it twice with LA Galaxy in 2011 and 2012 and now adds this as an executive. Major League Soccer coverage shows Beckham emotional after the final whistle saying it’s one of the greatest moments of his career and that his dream was to bring a club to Miami and be successful and bring the best player in the world. That player of course is Lionel Messi who played a key role in the final with two assists. Beckham called it surreal and said this is the icing on the cake and the cherry on top after more than a decade of work to launch and build Inter Miami.

Beckham’s knighthood is also back in the spotlight. Buckingham Palace has confirmed his official knighthood ceremony will take place next week at Windsor Castle. This formal investiture follows his appointment as a Knight Bachelor earlier this year for services to football and charity. The ceremony is expected to be a major public appearance with family and football dignitaries likely in attendance.

On the business side Inter Miami’s MLS Cup win is being framed as the culmination of a long-term project that began when Beckham secured expansion rights for Miami in his original MLS deal. Sports Business Journal notes that Beckham and the Mas brothers are already looking ahead to the 2026 Concacaf Champions Cup as the next target. There’s also fresh attention on Beckham’s financial situation after Radar Online published claims that he didn’t have the cash to save Victoria Beckham’s struggling fashion business. That report is more tabloid in nature and hasn’t been independently verified but it’s sparked discussion about the couple’s finances and business pressures behind the scenes.
