On Instagram, the next day, Ms Rasif, 28, said: “While you can read what we shared in the news, here are the things most didn’t see”.
She added that when it was time to clear the stage, David saw the staff lifting the chairs to clear the stage. “I noticed he left the line up, and when I turned around I realised he was helping the staff move the furniture”, she wrote.
She added: “Although he was not meant to host a meet & greet, he took photos with every person in the room, and shook every hand. After the show he proceeded to walk outside the store center to greet the fans waiting outside and to thank them for their support”.
She also wrote that after the show, he came out of his holding room to look for us “& gave us the warmest hugs & smiles and a chat before he had to rush off for his fifth appointment of the day”.
