David Beckham and wife Victoria's colossal new net worth closing in on King Charles' fortune
@Source: walesonline.co.uk
David and Victoria Beckham are fast closing in on the net worth of King Charles III . The former Manchester United star and his pop singer spouse, who have been wed for nearly 25 years, saw their wealth increase by an impressive £45million between 2024 and 2025. As per the Sunday Times Rich List , this brings their total fortune to a whopping £500m. In comparison, King Charles , who ascended to the throne after the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II , in September 2022, experienced a financial growth of £30m during the same period. His overall wealth now stands at £640m – matching that of ex-Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his wife, Akshata Murty. Beckham , who celebrated his 50th birthday earlier this month, amassed his wealth and fame through a successful football career. The right-midfielder emerged from the youth ranks of Tottenham Hotspur and later Manchester United, before signing his first professional contract with the Red Devils in 1992. With a record of 85 goals and 121 assists in 394 appearances, six Premier League titles, four domestic trophies and a Champions League victory under Sir Alex Ferguson' s management, Beckham transferred to Real Madrid in a £25m deal in 2003. After a four-year stint at the Bernabeu, Beckham spent the latter part of his career with LA Galaxy, had loan spells with AC Milan, and concluded his playing days with a year at PSG in 2013, reports the Mirror . The football icon has not only made his mark for England on the international stage, with 115 caps to his name, but he's also carved out a lucrative career off the field, leveraging his fame from his playing days. His marriage to Spice Girl Victoria Adams further catapulted him into the limelight in 1999. In 2021, Beckham inked a decade-long deal to become Qatar's tourism ambassador, a position that reportedly earns him £11m a year. Additionally, in 2014, Beckham took up the opportunity to purchase an MLS expansion team for £18m, which led to the birth of Inter Miami CF. Inter Miami CF made its first appearance in the MLS in March 2020. In other news, earlier this month, Beckham, alongside his former Manchester United team-mate Gary Neville, business magnate Declan Kelly, and Lord Mervyn Davies, became co-owners of Salford United. Reflecting on the acquisition, he said: "I grew up in Salford... I have such fond memories of my time living there and the place and its people played such an important part in my early life in football. "Salford City is at the heart of its community... it has a rich history and I am delighted to be a part of the next chapter." Beyond these ventures, Beckham's personal brand empire, DRJB Holdings, has been a significant source of wealth over the years. Victoria, on the other hand, rose to fame as a member of the 1990s pop sensation, the Spice Girls, who have sold over 100 million records globally and remain the top-selling girl group of all time. Following her successful music career, Victoria ventured into the fashion industry, launching her own label, VB, in September 2008. She further expanded her brand with the introduction of Victoria Beckham Beauty in September 2019. Despite the Beckhams' wealth, King Charles III is still £140m richer, largely due to his Sandringham and Balmoral estates. Additionally, managing the Duchy of Cornwall – a private estate established nearly 700 years ago to financially support the heir to the throne – has significantly bolstered his wealth. However, this figure seems modest when compared to the total net worth of the Royal Family , which was estimated to be around £22billion in 2021, accumulated from various sources including the Crown Estate.
