They are known to be close friends, with the director even giving the footballer a small part in his most recent film.
And David Beckham and Guy Ritchie proved their bromance was stronger than ever on Monday, as they headed out together in Notting Hill.
The former Real Madrid star, 42, was casually cool in head-to-toe sportswear as he enjoyed a stroll with the 49-year-old filmmaker – before they parted ways with a warm hug.

The former footballer was his trendy self in a casual Adidas hoodie and matching cropped tracksuit bottoms, as he stepped out in his London stomping ground.
Maintaining the sporty feel with white athletics trainers, David then tied his look together with one of his trademark grey beanies, which kept his long, messy hair in place.
Meanwhile Guy opted for a more formal look – heading out with his pal in a black bomber jacket and jeans combo, which he smartened up with leather brogues.

The former midfielder was then seen snapping a quick selfie with a fan on the street, before he got into his car and headed to his next destination.
David and Guy have been friends for years – often enjoying drinks and workouts in London together, and with the former Manchester United star attending Guy’s summer wedding to model Jacqui Ainsley, 34, in 2015.
Proving their close bond, the director even gave David a small part in his flick King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword earlier this year.

David made a brief appearance as battleguard Trigger, and was fixed with a number of elaborate prosthetics to transform into his character.
Yet, while the footballer’s role in the film was widely panned, Guy was quick to defend his pal’s appearance against the backlash – and called the star a ‘talent actor’.
Speaking to Good Morning Britain at the London premiere back in May, the director gushed: ‘He’s a talented actor, very confident on camera’, before adding in jest: ‘He was quite a tasty footballer wasn’t he?’
It is not just the men who are close friends however – but also their sons Brooklyn, 18, and Rocco, 17.
The oldest of the Beckham clan recently moved to New York to attend university, and new reports now claim his pal Rocco is planning on doing the same.
A source told The Sun last week that the youngster was keen to move back in with his pop star mother in the Big Apple, with an insider claiming: ‘Madonna is desperate to have Rocco home.’
