Why does David Beckham need to be seen everywhere?

Like the Chelsea flower show, collaborating with Alan Titchmarsh ffs He's just absolutely and utterly desperate for attention

The David Austin rose is a licensing deal. They pay % sales for the use of the David Beckham name.

It’s also worth flagging up that David Beckham does not own the Beckham brand. It is 55% owned by a separate entity (Authentic Brands Group). All this is explained in the superlative BBC podcast ‘When it hits the fan’ - ep link below www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002qj6d?partner=uk.co.bbc&origin=share-mobile

I don’t mind him. He’s a bit dopey, was obviously great at football back in the day, has made a huge success of himself… I laughed at the PP who said he’s been quietly squirrelling away trying to make himself into a national treasure for years! Can’t get worked up by the family tbh. Obviously really sad with Brooklyn, I hope they make up eventually. They’re imperfect, I have no doubt he cheated over the years … But who is perfect I guess.

And as I said before, I’d rather see him than someone from a reality TV show. At least he has some form of talent.

They must be hedging all their bets in the daughter now. Poor girl.

They are billionaires. How much attention and money does he need??

Does he still advertise pants ? I went in a lift the doors closed and a there was a bloody poster of him in his pants ! .his crotch was face height.

I didn't realise how much I had come to dislike him until I saw him on tv at Chelsea and I shuddered.

It's gross they are still selling their kids for views... both them and the Royal Family- haven't learned have they.

All of them completely devoid of integrity.

Agree. Why was the King meeting him?

Because they are involved with the same charity.

It's quite nauseating. And spectacularly uncool.

FabulousFreshias · 19/05/2026 21:03

I agree, and does his daughter never go to school??

Stay off social media. I haven't seen him for donkeys years.

It was the BBC I saw him on.

David Austin said ‘It added it was asked by Harper Beckham to reflect her father's "love for the British countryside and the hours they share together in the family garden".

Why does David Beckham need to be seen everywhere?

TonTonMacoute · 19/05/2026 20:36

I was wondering that too. I'm sick and tired of seeing his gurning mug everywhere.Why is he suddenly the worlds expert on gardening? It's like fucking Marie Antoinette and her primped up lambs, with poncey ribbons round their necks at Le Petit Trianon.

Made in Chelsea is still on?

I didn’t know he advertised for most of those things.

The tv network most watched in our house is CBeebies. DH mainly watches sport on the tv. The times I have watched the tv, I’m usually checking something on my phone during adverts.

Haha, no I meant the Chelsea flower show.

Think most are definitely exaggerating unless they have gone out of their way or clicked something about him or something connected to him and now are part of an algorithm where they get more of him.

Trouble is I don't have to click anything to see him on my telly advertising crisps, alcohol, air fryers, soft drinks and the like. Then I pop Chelsea on the beeb and there he is again. I don't even watch that much telly but without even trying I seem to see more of Mr Beckham on there than almost anyone else.

Edited

Don’t forget his sunglasses, watches and liquor and his wife with her kajal bloody eyeliners 😝

Works hard for charity to get a K. That was his motive. Now he seems to be angling for to be a royal the amount of sucking up he does to the royals. Perhaps he can be the new Duke of York now there is a vacancy. He is probably trying to get Harper hitched to one of William’s lads.

Oh christ dont give him ideas

Exactly that @VanquishedColston

There are so many people in the public eye worthy of opprobrium. Long lines of them. And the OP and others are choosing David Beckham? I will never understand it. Nobody gives a shit if you like him or you don't but to get this exercised about him? Nope.

I think some of this is manufactured or people forgetting that algorithms exist.

I’m on several social media platforms and other forums and this is the first one even mentioning Sir David Beckham. Heck, I hear nothing about him out and about. No talks about him while standing in the pick-up line, nothing.

Like I said upthread, I’ve only seen him mentioned recently because I’m on the David Austin Roses emails. Before that it was once again on here when it came to his son. I don’t follow him or his family like that to claim he’s everywhere.

I see him mentioned here more than anywhere else, twice this is entire year.

What is it on here with running people down?

Another awful thread of jealousy.

DB worked hard to be a talented footballer supported by his dad, works hard for charity and has worked hard with his wife to create financial security.

A billionaire - not bad for a working class, state educated kid, from Leytonstone.

People just like to hate.

They do. We build them up and then want to tear them down once they’re famous.

OP what do you expect him to do? Hide at home? Why can’t he get involved if he wants to?

Lomonald · 19/05/2026 15:02

IcedPurple · 19/05/2026 15:00

How many faces is it now? Are he and his wife in competition?

He's starting to look vaguely ferretlike in middle age.

He now looks like Gordon Ramsey i am assuming the same surgeon or procedures! He looks ridiculous.
