Audrey Soape's church just announced a father-daughter dance event. Unfortunately, the 11-year-old can't attend the event as she lost her father and grandfather last year. But her mother, Holly, was determined to find a way for her grieving daughter to attend the event. And so, the mom reached out to Philadelphia Eagles safety Anthony Harris. Harris was Audrey's favorite football player, and her family had built a friendship with him through social media way back when he was a member of the Minnesota Vikings. Surprisingly, the football player agreed to Holly's request to escort her daughter. "Not only will I come, but I want to make sure she feels like a princess," he replied, according to Holly. And that he did.
Harris's kind gesture has gone viral, but he just humbly replied that he "was just trying to be human."
