David Beckham’s hospitalization details unknown

It has not been announced why Beckham, who is a co-owner of Inter Miami CF, had to be hospitalized. But his injury comes after he recently posted about his family on Father’s Day.

“Mummy thank you for doing the most important part and making me a father. There is no greater gift in life than making me a dad. Happy Father’s Day. I love you kiddies more than you could imagine,” Beckham wrote.

There have been rumors recently that their oldest, Brooklyn, and his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, have decided to go no-contact with his parents. But a source told E! News that the rumor is “another deliberate attempt to misrepresent the truth.

Despite this, Brooklyn Beckham and his wife reportedly hired a new lawyer recently, with an E! News source saying, “It’s not for reputation management, but to set the record straight, combat spread of misinformation.”
