Retired footballer David Beckham says he is an 'emotional wreck' and cries during most films and TV shows including 'The Office' and 'Friends'.
The 38-year-old Brit, who has four children with his fashion designer wife, Victoria Beckham, has said he even tears up while watching Disney's 'Aladdin', reported Contactmusic.
"I'm kind of an emotional wreck with movies. I can't get through some movies without shedding a tear, I can't lie. I'm the same when I'm watching 'The Office' or when I'm watching 'Friends.' I just can't get through it," Beckham said.
The 'Class of '92' star said he also 'choked up' while showing the trailer for the new documentary to his sons, but managed to keep his composure while filming it with his former Manchester United teammates, Phil Neville, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs and Nicky Butt.
"I got emotional, I got really emotional throughout, obviously not in front of the lads because they'd have killed me. You can't do that. We're men! But I got emotional filming it," he said.
