Rod Stewart has joked to David Beckham that his knighthood is "coming soon."
The singer, 79, made the comment while attending an event at the The King's Foundation on Tuesday.
"Penny (Lancaster) and I are so honoured to be ambassadors," he said to the audience, that included David Beckham and King Charles III.
"I'm also wonderfully honoured to be a knight and David, yours is coming soon."
David, 49, has recently started working with The King's Foundation, an education charity which aims to create better communities.
He recently told how he was "excited to be working with The King's Foundation" and looking forward to the "opportunity to help raise awareness" about the charity.
"I've always been keen to help young people to expand their horizons and I'm particularly looking forward to supporting the foundation's education programs and its efforts to ensure young people have greater access to nature," he said.
In May, the football star visited The King's Highgrove home. After the meeting, David revealed they spoke about the charity, and also exchanged beekeeping tips.
"Having developed a love for the countryside, I'm also on a personal mission to learn more about rural skills which is so central to the foundation's work," Beckham said. "It was inspiring to hear from the King about the work of His Majesty's foundation during my recent visit to Highgrove Gardens - and compare beekeeping tips!"
