Topic Reading-Vol.3812-9/18/2022

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
England football legend David Beckham queued for 13 hours to pay his respects to the Queen
David Beckham is a former English professional footballer known as one of the greatest and most recognizable midfielders of his generation. He played in Manchester United, Real Madrid, AC Milan as well as the national team of England. He is indeed a British cultural icon. He was given an OBE, Member of the Order of the British Empire, for services to football in 2003.
A few days before Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, he was spotted in a long line outside Westminster Hall to pay his respects to the last queen, whom he had the honor to meet on several occasions. He had been waiting for over 12 hours in line before then. He ate snacks and sandwiches and drank coffee with other mourners. No matter how famous and rewarded he is, he is still one of the citizens.
Enjoy reading the article and video to see how he looks in a line with the public.
