Soccer star David Beckham played the good samaritan by rescuing a family whose car broke down in the midst of busy traffic near his house.
A grey Nissan Primera, owned by Paul Long, was stranded at the busy roundabout near Beckham’s house in Sawbridgeworth, Herts. The 35-year-old sportsman came
to the rescue of Long and his two children to help push the motor to safety, reported the online version of the Sun. “David had negotiated his way through the traffic on foot. I wound the window down and said, ‘You’re David Beckham!’ His next words were, ‘Are you OK?’ I said, ‘Yes, but can you push us over to the side?’ He said, ‘I’ll try’,” said Long, 47. Long was taking his son Fabien, eight, and daughter Josephine, six, to school when his gearbox failed and they got stuck.
The LA Galaxy midfielder’s helpful gesture overwhelmed Long, who said, “The emotion of it all got to me. I said, ‘Thank you David. I love you, mate!’ I think he was slightly embarrassed. My kids were awestruck.”
Meanwhile, former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham has a very special screen saver on her custom-made gold iPhone, a shirtless photo of husband, footballer David Beckham. The popstar-turned-fashion designer has the ultimate gadget which costs a staggering $35,000, reported Daily Mail online.
