Coldplay’s Chris Martin Helps Osteoarthritis-Stricken Fan at Big Weekend Festival
Lead singer of Coldplay, Chris Martin, assists Saundra Glenn, a fan suffering from osteoarthritis, at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Luton by offering her a lift in his vehicle and providing a special surprise during the band’s performance.
Chris Martin, the lead singer of Coldplay, assisted a fan named Saundra Glenn at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Luton. This incident occurred last week when Martin offered Glenn a lift in his vehicle after noticing her struggle to walk to the accessibility box office. Glenn, 64, suffers from osteoarthritis and has issues with her hip, knee, and ankle.
Chris Martin’s black Mercedes pulled up beside Glenn, who was resting against a fence. Initially shocked, Glenn hesitated to accept the ride, but Martin encouraged her to hop in. During the ride, Martin conversed with Glenn about her community work in Luton.
After escorting her into the festival and ensuring she got her wristband, Martin hinted at a special surprise during Coldplay’s performance. True to his word, the band performed a new song called “Orange,” in tribute to Luton Town FC. Glenn described the experience as a highlight, capturing selfies with Martin and praising his kindness.
