Sir David Beckham has been hailed a "true gentleman" after rushing to help a British woman who suffered a head injury while skiing.

The 50-year-old football icon was on a family holiday in the French Alps when he spotted the woman fall on the slopes while skiing with two friends. 

According to an insider speaking to The Sun, Beckham immediately sprang into action.

"David saw the woman hit her head and was worried about her," the source said. 

"He took her skis off and made sure she was OK – he was a true gentleman. David was incredibly lovely, and so was the ski guide with him."

Beckham was reportedly accompanied by his 14-year-old daughter, Harper, at the time of the accident, which occurred at the exclusive Courchevel resort.

This family getaway comes just weeks after his son, Brooklyn Beckham, posted a six-slide Instagram statement expressing that he "does not want to reconcile" with his family due to tensions surrounding his marriage to Nicola Peltz. 

Brooklyn accused his parents of attempting to "ruin" his relationship with her before their wedding in 2022.

Celebrity chef and family friend Gordon Ramsay recently addressed the Beckham family feud, praising David and Victoria Beckham's parenting and expressing optimism about mending the relationship with Brooklyn.

"Brooklyn and I have messaged a little bit, our relationship is solid. I love him – his heart is incredible," Ramsay told The Sun.

"But it’s hard, isn’t it, when you’re infatuated? Love is blind. It’s easy to get up on that rollercoaster, and get carried away. But it will come back. I’ve seen first-hand just how good parents they are. David as a dad is just incredible. They’ve both put so much energy into their kids, and I know just how many times they’ve got Brooklyn out of the s***. I think it’s going to be a matter of time before Brooklyn takes a good look at himself and understands just what his parents mean to him. Time’s going to be the best healer, and David will absolutely get that relationship back on track."

Ramsay also highlighted the strong bond between Victoria Beckham and her daughter-in-law, Nicola Peltz:

"Victoria and Tana have spoken a lot. They are probably closer than ever – they’re like two peas in a pod, those two. She has offered lots of support."

Despite the family drama, Beckham’s swift and compassionate response on the slopes underscores his dedication to helping others—and shows that even amidst personal challenges, he remains a caring father and husband.
