Sir David Beckham leapt for cover when a firework exploded right in front of him during a Bonfire display at his home on Wednesday.
The former footballer’s wife, Victoria Beckham, captured the hilarious moment on video as Sir David got startled while trying to light a rogue firework in their small courtyard.
Victoria can be heard warning ‘careful’ and urged ‘don’t go too close’ as Sir David approached closer to the flame. ‘Are you alright babe? Are you alright? Do you not like that babe?,’ she joked as Sir David jumped out of his skin after the loud bang.
She captioned the Instagram Story: ‘That is how the Beckham’s do firework night!
The Beckham family enjoyed a quiet evening at home following a busy week of celebrations for Sir David’s knighthood.
Close friends and family had earlier gathered at Gordon Ramsay’s restaurant in Chelsea, London, to toast the football legend, 50, after he received the prestigious honour.
Sir David’s parents, Ted, 77, and Sandra, 76, were present at Windsor Castle to witness him being welcomed by King Charles.
Reflecting on the experience, Sir David admitted it had been ‘an emotional day’ marking a remarkable milestone in his life.
Victoria and their three youngest children-Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper,14-joined in the celebrations, while eldest son Brooklyn, 26, reportedly didn’t reach out to congratulate his father on achieving the lifelong honour.
