In the glamorous world of celebrities, the spotlight never dims, not even when facing the hurdles of recovery from injuries. Recently, knee scooters have emerged as the go-to mobility aid for many stars, blending functionality with a dash of style. We had a look at some of the famous faces who've turned to knee walkers during their healing process, highlighting how these devices have become a preferred choice for those in the limelight.
Victoria Beckham's "Best Gift Ever"
Fashion icon and singer Victoria Beckham recently shared how a mobility scooter became her "best gift ever," courtesy of her husband, David Beckham. Following a foot injury, Victoria was presented with a customised green knee walker, complete with a bell, cup holder, and a basket - which she humorously noted could hold wine. This thoughtful gesture by David not only aided Victoria in her recovery but also added a touch of elegance to her mobility. It's important to note, this isn't one of our knee scooters, but it certainly highlights the versatility and personalisation available in today’s market.
