David Beckham Reaches Out to Support Tom Brady After Comedy Roast
David Beckham is standing by his good friend in a time of need.
Checking in on Tom Brady
After a recent comedy roast of Tom Brady, featuring appearances from A-list stars like Kim Kardashian, Ben Affleck, and Peyton Manning, as well as professional comedians taking jabs at the former New England Patriots quarterback, David Beckham shared that he reached out to Brady to see how he was handling the situation.
Expressing Concern
“I know Tom quite well, and I must admit, I did fire him a message just to check he was OK,” David revealed during an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on May 8. “He’s more than OK, but yeah, it was hard to watch.”
Finding Humor in the Situation
Despite the discomfort, the 49-year-old retired soccer star, who has four children with his wife Victoria Beckham, including Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 19, and Harper, 12, confessed that he found the Netflix special to be quite humorous.
Appreciating the Comedy
In Beckham’s words, “It was very funny.”
Sensitive Topics at the Roast
However, some of the jokes made during the show touched on sensitive subjects, such as mentions of Tom’s former teammate Aaron Hernandez and not-safe-for-work (NSFW) humor involving his ex-partners, Bridget Moynahan and Gisele Bündchen, both of whom have history with the football player.
