Sir David Beckham becomes UK sport's first billionaire - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
Sir David Beckham’s fortune with Victoria Beckham has risen to an estimated £1.185 billion, making him Britain’s first billionaire sportsman. The increase is among the largest on the latest rich list, with the couple more than doubling their £500 million fortune from 2025. Growth is linked to expanding US business interests, including involvement with Inter Miami CF, where Lionel Messi’s arrival increased global commercial value and stadium-related property developments boosted returns. Victoria Beckham’s fashion label continues to grow, with revenues reportedly surpassing £100 million. The milestone comes amid public family tensions involving Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham. Other entrants include Liam and Noel Gallagher, whose reunion tour reportedly generated a combined £375 million, alongside major figures such as Elton John, Mick Jagger, Brian May, J. K. Rowling, and Lewis Hamilton, with King Charles III estimated at £680 million.
"Elsewhere on the Rich List, Oasis stars Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher entered the rankings after their hugely successful reunion tour reportedly helped generate a combined fortune of £375 million. The reunion sparked controversy over dynamic ticket pricing after some standard seats surged in price during sales, prompting scrutiny from ministers and competition regulators."
