David Beckham has been dominating headlines ever since his new Netflix documentary, titled Beckham, was released on 4 October.
The four-part series sees the former professional footballer, 48, open up about his life and career, including his 24-year marriage to wife Victoria, 49, and his battles with the media.
Beckham has proven to be immensely popular with Netflix viewers, with millions tuning in to find out more about David's life and football career.

The documentary marks the first time he and ex-Spice Girls star Victoria have spoke out about certain topics, such as David's alleged affair with Rebecca Loos in 2003 and his famous red card at the 1998 World Cup.
Viewers have got to see a whole new side to dad-of-four David and many have been taking to social media to share their opinions on both him and Victoria.
With the spotlight currently shining on David, much of his past has been dug back up by fans online and they're currently obsessing over his behaviour at the Queen's lying-in-state last year.
The ex-footballer queued for over 12 hours with the general public to see Her Majesty's coffin in Westminster Hall, despite other famous faces 'skipping' the queue.
Clips of David queueing have since resurfaced and fans have been quick to praise David, with some even calling for him to receive a knighthood.
"David Beckham earned immense respect in my eyes when he queued for hours, with the 'normal' folk to pay his respects to the late Queen," one person wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
A second viewer wrote: "David Beckham loved our late Queen and loves his country! yes he needs to be knighted."
A third fan agreed, saying: "David Beckham stood in line with the rest of the nation for 13 hours to see the Queen's lying in state. He didn't ask for a VIP section. What we gotta do to get this man his knighthood? #SirDavid".
David had said it was "special" to attend the Queen's lying-in-state and spoke about paying tribute to her while on the football pitch back in 2022.
He told ITV News at the time: "Every time that we stood there when we wore those three lions shirts and I had my armband and we sang God Save the Queen, that was something that meant so much to us. Every time that we did it, it was something special."
He added: “Because it’s special to be here, to celebrate, and to hear the different stories that people have to say.”
