No doubt the 66-year-old will join his son at his extravagant bash in Marrakech, Morocco when he turns 40 years old on Saturday.
The athlete, who retired two years ago, will be feted by his family and famous friends at the lavish Amanjena resort, The Sun On Sunday's Dan Wootton reports.
And it is the birthday boy who is flying them out.
Some of the guests include Tom Cruise, Gordon Ramsay, director Guy Ritchie, and Liv Tyler and her beau Dave Gardner - who is David's best friend.

'He'll only turn 40 once so he wants to do it in style. Morocco is a place close to his heart,' a source also told the paper.
The five-star resort is special to David, as it believed to be the location that he and wife Victoria renewed their vows during a romantic getaway in 2004.
The Spice Girl and heartthrob wed in 1999 and have four children together: Brooklyn, 15, Romeo, 12, Cruz, nine and three-year-old Harper.

Posh Spice and their brood are currently in London - where a day earlier David, Victoria, Brooklyn and Cruz watched Romeo run in the London Marathon three-mile mini-marathon course.
They all wore T-shirts emblazoned with 'Team Romeo.'
The 12-year-old's participation supported the Joint United Nations Programme On HIV/AIDS and the '7' fund, which provides assistance to children in danger zones.
'We r so proud!! Romeo ran London mini Marathon for UNAIDS and 7 Fund x vb,' Victoria captioned an Instagram photo of posters.
The 41-year-old fashion designer also added a snap of her boy with a medal around his neck, writing, 'Well done Romeo!! We r all so proud!!'
Ahead of the race, the family was on an extended break in L.A. where Victoria celebrated her birthday on April 17.
However, with his wife and children staying behind in London now, David will likely use his short window of free time back in L.A. to wrap up any last-minute party planning.
It is good then that his father Ted is with him to provide support.

In his 2000 memoir Beckham: My World, David revealed that he shares many traits with his father - including his short fuse.
'If something is said about me, he'll want to punch whoever said it, but if my mum hears it she'll just want to cry,' he explained.
'The quality I like least in myself is my short temper. I think I get it from my dad.'
David's father Ted and mother Sandra divorced in 2002 after 32 years of marriage. He also has sisters Joanne and Lynne.
