What a HERO.
David Beckham is no stranger to documenting his private life on social media away from the football pitch. However it took someone else to highlight what a genuinely nice bloke he is.
The footballer was spotted pulling up to help an elderly woman who’d collapsed in the street.

In London’s SW7, the father of four was seen rolling down the window of his black car and asking the victim if she was ok, stopping cars behind him potentially running her over.
It’s said David also offered her a bottle of water and tried to calm her as much as he could.
Was helping an old lady who fell over on my lunchbreak and guess who bloody drives up to help? David Beckham. That's who. What a gentleman

In a statement, London’s Fire Brigade confirmed the news:
“At around 16.45 a fire engine was flagged down to an elderly woman who had tripped when crossing the road and fell and hit her head.
‘David Beckham was parked nearby and had already given her a bottle of water. He assisted and when the ambulance arrived was thanked and told he could move on.”
