WATCH: David Beckham is "Sexiest Man Alive"
Updated | By MornéJK
David Beckham has admitted he was shocked when he was crowned this year's Sexiest Man Alive by PEOPLE magazine because he thought he was "past his sell by date."
The retired soccer superstar, 40, can't believe he was awarded this year's accolade by PEOPLE magazine as he thought his age would shrink his chances of winning.
Taking to his Facebook account, he wrote: "I thought I was past my sell by date but thanks to People.com for the accolade and the compliment! I always feel a little shy when receiving these Awards, though it will make my Mum happy.(sic)"
However, the handsome star is convinced his children Brooklyn, 16, Romeo, 13, Cruz, 10, and four-year-old Harper will chuckle at his magazine cover shoot when they see it because, he believes, he looks vastly different in comparison to when he first wakes up in the mornings.
Meanwhile, David has admitted his wife Victoria "wasn't a fan" when he sported a ponytail, while the fashion designer insisted she thinks he always makes great wardrobe choices.
She told the magazine: "David has good taste. I like the way he dresses. He's naturally very stylish."
And the former Spice Girls singer thinks her spouse has "fantastic abs" and that "all of his tattoos are beautiful."
