Royal Wedding: David Beckham’s last-minute OBE switch

I can’t believe he did this…

I thought everyone knew you wear your OBE Medal on you left lapel….

From the Daily Mail:

He rarely puts a step wrong in the style stakes.

But despite looking groomed to perfection and dapper in his Ralph Lauren morning suit, David Beckham had a very small slip-up today at the Royal Wedding.

The footballer arrived at Westminster Abbey this morning proudly wearing his OBE medal displayed – but unfortunately, David wore it on his right lapel.

    As well as wearing his OBE on the wrong side, he was also the only person not in uniform wearing a medal. The wedding is not the place to wear your medals when it is not a state occasion. He really did not do his research well, he should have rang the Palace and they would have advised him. But of course he may have done and been given the wrong info on purpose.
