Fan-tastic ... Spurs fan Paul Long with kids Fabien and Josephine
"We had been there for ten minutes. I couldn't do anything - cars were whizzing past."
Then Paul spotted Becks' Audi car pull in ahead of them.
He said: "As he got out I said to the kids, 'It's just a hoodie'.
"Then the hood slipped down to reveal him in a bobble hat.
"He had negotiated his way through the traffic on foot.
"I wound the window down and said, 'You're David Beckham!' His next words were, 'Are you OK?'
"I said, 'Yes, but can you push us over to the side?' He said, 'I'll try'."
Becks, 35, Paul and another man pushed the car clear.
The LA Galaxy midfielder is currently training with Premier League team Spurs during a break in the US season.
Spurs fan Paul, who is married to Suzy, 36, and runs the business Paul Long Photography in nearbv Ware, admitted he was overcome with relief after Becks helped them out.
He said: "The emotion of it all got to me.
"I said, 'Thank you David. I love you, mate!' I think he was slightly embarrassed. My kids were awestruck."
Becks' spokesman last night confirmed the star had stopped to help the family out.
