Former England captain David Beckham is set to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, according to reports ahead of the ceremony. Multiple outlets say Beckham is being honoured for his public profile and career, and that the event takes place in Hollywood today. The coverage also discusses Beckham’s son Brooklyn Beckham, who reportedly lives close to the ceremony venue. However, the reports state that Brooklyn will not attend the star unveiling. One report characterises Brooklyn as an “estranged” son, while another says he will miss the milestone even though he is said to be nearby. Neither account provides details on the reason for Brooklyn’s absence. The reports are consistent that Beckham is scheduled to receive the Walk of Fame star, while Brooklyn is expected not to attend the ceremony.
