David Beckham becomes Britain’s first billionaire sports star
Revenues at Victoria Beckham’s eponymous fashion line have topped £100 million
Sir David Beckham is Britain’s first billionaire sportsman after he and wife Lady Victoria doubled their wealth in the last year, according to the Sunday Times Rich List. The celebrity couple now have a combined fortune of £1. 185 billion, a significant increase to the £500 million estimated net worth they had on the 2025 list.
The major uptick in wealth is attributed to Sir David’s investments in the US, as the signing of Lionel Messi to Inter Miami until 2028 has lifted the value of his stake in the club, and a vast property development adjoining Inter’s home has provided another windfall. Meanwhile revenues at Lady Beckham’s eponymous fashion line have topped £100 million. The revelation comes amid the couple’s feud with their oldest son Brooklyn.

He also alleged his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham, the daughter of billionaire Nelson Peltz, had been “disrespected” by his family. Sir David Beckham and wife Lady Victoria, now have a combined fortune of £1.
