This was made clear after the Manchester United icon once lost his wallet and was almost held for ransom as a result.<\/p>\n<p>Beckham, 50, and his wife Victoria attended Windsor Castle on Tuesday after the former footballer was awarded one of Britain&#8217;s highest honors. The England legend has finally been knighted for his services to football and charity, after pursuing the honor for more than a decade.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Many would argue that this assessment is well-deserved given the influence Beckham has wielded on behalf of Britain over the past 25 years. Nevertheless, Vex once found himself having to provide a reward of his own just to get his wallet back.<\/p>\n<p>Basketball icon Shaquille O&#8217;Neal once discovered Beckham&#8217;s wallet and couldn&#8217;t resist pranking the football star. But it was perfectly casual, considering the two have been friends since Beckham&#8217;s time with the LA Galaxy.<\/p>\n<p>Lakers legend Shaq previously joked that he considered keeping the cash he found, but had second thoughts when he found out who owned the wallet. One of the NBA&#8217;s most famous figures isn&#8217;t short on a bob or two.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was walking around Beverly Hills one day and I found a wallet,&#8221; O&#8217;Neal revealed on The Late Late Show with James Corden. &#8220;Usually when I find a wallet, I take all the money out and throw it away, but this was a nice wallet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After discovering Beckham&#8217;s ID, he jokingly demands a large sum back and they decide to have some fun together.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At first I was joking,&#8221; the American admitted. &#8220;I said, &#8216;I have your wallet, and it&#8217;s going to cost a million dollars to get it back.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;But he knew it was me. (Beckham said), &#8216;Shaq, stop playing.&#8217; I was like, &#8216;Dave, I found your wallet.&#8217; The funny thing is, he said, &#8216;There&#8217;s money in this wallet. You know what happened?'&#8221; And I was like, &#8216;No.&#8217; \u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shaq, who retired in 2012, is considered one of the all-time greats in basketball. An impressive center, he won four NBA championships. He won three of those championships with the Lakers alongside Kobe Bryant and one with the Miami Heat.<\/p>\n<p>He won the NBA MVP title in 2000 and appeared in 15 All-Star Games during an illustrious career representing the Orlando Magic, Phoenix Suns, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Boston Celtics.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Beckham has represented elite clubs such as United, Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, AC Milan and PSG, before making his debut in the league in 2013, following O&#8217;Neill in 2013. He also won 115 caps for England, serving as captain for six years.<\/p>\n<p>Despite currently living in the UK with his wife Victoria, Beckham&#8217;s ownership role at MLS club Inter Miami means he is a regular transatlantic traveler.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2129776\/David-Beckham-wallet-found-Shaquille-O-Neal\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David Beckham was knighted after years of failure, but even knights can be forgetful.
