David and Victoria Beckham’s staggering net worth unveiled

The Beckhams are raking it in.

David and Victoria Beckham’s combined net worth is an estimated $1.58 billion (£1.18 billion), according to The Sunday Times’ Rich List 2026 released Friday.

The couple, who have four children, reportedly doubled their net worth from last year, when they were worth an estimated $666 million (£500 million).

The outlet also confirmed David, 51, is the first British billionaire athlete.

David and Victoria, 52, are the second-richest sportspeople on the list, behind Formula One founder Bernie Ecclestone, who is worth $2.66 billion (£2 billion).

The soccer star’s huge profit over the last year mostly comes from his role as an investor in the MLS team Inter Miami CF.

His 26 percent stake of the team is worth close to $400 million, a number that shot up after Lionel Messi signed with the team in 2023, according to the Sunday Times.

David and Victoria have made earnings from their real estate investments, which includes their nearly $80 million home in Miami, $66 million residence in Holland Park, London and $26 million estate in Great Tew, a village close to the Cotswold Hills in England.

The couple also own a £26 million yacht, the outlet noted.

In addition, David has multiple businesses like his wellness brand IM8 and healthy kids’ snacks brand Beeup.

When he was younger, David made hundreds of millions from his two-decade playing career in soccer and partnerships with brands like Adidas and H&M.

Victoria, meanwhile, got rich from being in the Spice Girls and her growing eponymous fashion empire that she founded in 2008.

Reuters reported last year that the fashion label was valued at around $700 million.

Author and media consultant Andy Milligan, who wrote the 2024 book “Bend It Like Beckham” that analyzed David’s cultural impact, told the Sunday Times that the couple “always had a long-term ambitious strategy” beyond David’s soccer career and Victoria’s music career.

“They had identified those areas where they were going to develop over time,” said Milligan. “But what they were also really savvy about was getting the commercial structures in place to monetize them.”

Milligan also commended the Beckhams for dominating in business by “getting exceptionally good advice along the way and being really savvy enough to take it.”

“These are two people both from backgrounds where hard work was valued, who have been determined to make the most of the talents they were given,” Milligan stated.
