A Royal Hangout with Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet, and David Beckham
Monarch Charles III honors three distinguished global figures - Three-Distinguished Musicians Greet New Monarch, King Charles III
Wow, what a lineup! King Charles III (76) played host to some heavy-hitters recently. At a shindig in London's St. James's Palace, he rubbed elbows with none other than Meryl Streep (75), Kate Winslet (49), and David Beckham (50). snaps from the event—an awards bash thanks to Charles' charitable King's Foundation—show our power trio chatting it up with the royals.
The jokes from Hollywood's Golden Girl, Streep, seemed to be a hit with King Charles. There's a rare photo of the pair smirking and laughing heartily, with a delighted-looking monarch right along with her. Beckham and Winslet looked pretty tickled themselves during their chat with their king too. Add to that list of attendees Stanley Tucci (64), who threw a royal dinner party back in the year.
The King's Foundation Turns 35
Charles founded the King's Foundation way back in 1990, while he was still rockin' that Prince of Wales title. Over the years, it's gifted annual sustainability awards in various categories. Now based at Dumfries House in Scotland, it's also educating more than 14,000 students each year in traditional crafts, architecture, regenerative agriculture, and urban renewal. David Beckham has been repping the foundation for about a year as their ambassador.
Beckham and the acting legends Streep, Winslet, and Tucci passed out some of the event's awards, marking a big 3-5 for the foundation. BBC reported that Beckham is soon to be knighted, giving him the well-deserved title Sir David Beckham.
