The legendary soccer star, 49, took toInstagramon Monday, Dec. 9, to share a festive Christmas-themed video with followers that featured a split-second cameo from the lateQueen Elizabeth, whom David has an image of proudly framed on his wall.
“I know it’s early morning, I’ve literally just walked into the office,” he led off the video. “Normally my office is actually quite tidy, something has gone on during the night,” David continued as he panned past a framed image of Queen Elizabeth on his wall and down to a television stand, which notably had several Elf on the Shelf figurines strewn about.
