David Beckham's new documentary - aptly named Beckham - is quite possibly the world's most talked about latest TV offering right now. Streaming on Netflix on 4 October, it features "never-before-seen footage" that "follows David Beckham's meteoric rise from humble beginnings to global football stardom." And after last night's star studded premiere, where David, his wife Victoria and their four kids, Brooklyn, 24, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 18, and Harper, 12, hit the red carpet in London's Mayfair, it shows just how far the family has come.
They are, in fact, cultural icons.
But while the Beckham's enjoy the wave of the doc, let's take a look at some of its biggest bombshell moments. From Brooklyn's dramatic birth 24 years ago to David opening up about his mental health, here's everything you need to know before settling down on your sofa to watch it...
David opens up about his mental health struggles The documentary sees the footballing icon open up about his mental health and his struggle with depression over the years - especially when recalling England’s 1998 World Cup exit, when he was red-carded for kicking Argentinian player, Diego Simone. Speaking candidly about the event, he confessed that he's never actually "talked about it, just because [he] can't." "I find it hard to talk through what I went through because it was so extreme," he continued, adding that wherever he went, he was "abused every single day." "To walk down the street and to see people look at you in a certain way, spit at you, abuse you, come up to your face and say some of the things they said, that is difficult," the 48 year old reflected, going on to admit that he wasn't able to eat or sleep during that period.
