Beckham Wept At Her Majesty Queen’s Body Viewing Ceremony
Former England national team, Manchester United and Real Madrid football star, David Beckham could not hold his tears as he uncontrollably wept when he was walk past Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin during the viewing ceremony.
Despite being invited to skip the 13 hour queue to view Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin by an MP, Beckham refused saying his grandfather, a staunch royalist and his ‘real-life hero’, would have been disappointed.
“David could have avoided all of the queuing but he wanted to be like everyone else saying his granddad wouldn’t have [jumped the queue] so neither morning, he had been wondering all week when the best time was to go and finally he went for this morning.”
“David was brought up in an East End family who were real royalists – the kind who would stand to attention when the national anthem came on. He wanted to go to see the Queen like any other member of the public.”
