David Beckham surprises family with $100,000 on emotional and tearful first episode of Ryan Seacrest's new TV show Knock Knock Live

               

The 40-year-old was the final 'door knock' on Ryan Seacrest's new TV show Knock Knock Live, which as the name suggests, surprises unsuspecting American families with a live camera crew and a chance to win a tonne of money... and usually there's no chance involved, they just hand over the cash.

In the closing segment of Tuesday night's premiere episode, the host explained that the soccer icon was en rout to the home of the Gonzales family; the father had been a professional soccer player in Mexico but had to give it up and take a job in construction to support his family - and thus only got to see them once a month. see photo after the cut..

Seacrest revealed that Beckham, who himself came from a working class background, wanted to recognize a hard working family similar to his own.
