"And I'm very, very happy that you're doing it for this one, good luck girls."
The Lionesses reached the semi-final after defeating Colombia in the quarter-final.
They came from a goal behind to win the tie thanks to strikes from Lauren Hemp and Alessia Russo.
The Aussies got the better of England when the sides last met in April - but that was a friendly.
However, England are yet to lose a competitive match under Wiegman.
And the Lionesses have continued to prove that they can produce a result when it matters, no matter the circumstances even if they are facing the host nation.
Beckham never reached a semi-final with the Men's team during his playing career.
The former Manchester United, Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, AC Milan and PSG ace was part of the golden generation that never reached its full potential.
