The Beckhams joined hundreds of thousands across the country on their doorsteps this morning to pay a fitting tribute to the war dead.
Covid restrictions put many remembrance sites strictly off-limits to most people.
So the Sunday Mirror urged households to step outside at 11am and observe the two-minute silence to honour the servicemen and women killed in the world wars and later conflicts.
David Beckham, his wife Victoria and children Cruz, 15, and Harper, nine, paid their respects.
The family uploaded a video online to support the doorstep silence, and the former England captain posted an emotional message across his social media platforms.
"Lest we forget," the superstar captioned the video.
"This week I met the amazing Chelsea Pensioners. I was so happy we were able to visit them in these especially difficult times for older people and for all charities.
"As so many of us spend today back in lockdown we remember those who gave so much for our freedom. It’s a chance to talk to our children about why we mark Remembrance Day like my grandad taught me why we wear the poppy.
"The pensioners are sad they can’t go out and sell poppies this year as usual, please support them and donate online if you can @royalbritishlegion @royalhospitalchelsea."
David wasn't the only sports star backing the campaign.
Also throwing their support behind it were England manager Gareth Southgate, Seb Coe, George Cohen, Frank Bruno, Jessica Ennis-Hill and Ben Stokes.
Cricket star Stokes – the player of the match as England won the World Cup last year for the first time – said Covid will “not stop us from honouring our brave men and women who fought and died for us”.
His team-mate Joe Root, who also took part, said: “It is a great shame many traditional gatherings on Remembrance Sunday have had to be cancelled.
“But it doesn’t mean we stop remembering those who have died for us. We must find a way to adapt.”
