David Beckham has officially become Britain's first billionaire sportsman after he and his wife Victoria doubled their wealth in the last year.

The couple, who have been married since 1999, shared a combined fortune of £1.185 billion, according to the Sunday Times Rich List. It is an increase of £500 million from their estimated net worth in 2025.

Former Spice Girls star, Victoria Beckham has seen revenues from her eponymous fashion line reach more than £100 million, while David's investments in the US, including the signing of Lionel Messi to Inter Miami until 2028, has lifted the value of his stake in the club.

It was also reported that a huge property development near Inter's home has contributed to another huge windfall for Beckham.

This list is once again topped by the billionaire Hinduja family, who top the annual list for the fourth year running, following the death of patriarch, Gopichand Hinduka last year. His children, Sanjay and Dheeraj Hinduja and their family boast a wealth of £38 billion, an increase of almost £3 million from last year.

Other newcomers on the list include Oasis pair, Noel and Liam Gallagher, who are reportedly both worth a joint wealth of £375 million, following their sold out reunion tour between July and November last year.

Elsewhere, Glastonbury organiser, Emily Eavis and her family are also new to the list, with an estimated wealth at £400 million.

Other household names featuring on the list include Keith Richards, Mick Jagger, Elton John and Brian May, along with theatre legend, Andrew Lloyd Webber, author JK Rowling, F1 star Lewis Hamilton, make up guru, Charlotte Tilbury.

Musicians, Ed Sheeram (£410 million), Harry Styles (235 million), Adele (£172 million), and Dua Lipa (£150 million).

Boxer Tyson Fury also makes the list, debuting in the 40 under 40 list with an estimated wealth of £162 million0, while Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe finds himself in 39th place with £103 million.

Speaking of the Beckhams, Victoria recently said that being a mother is "never about being pushy", months after her son Brooklyn Peltz Beckham accused his parents of controlling narratives in the press about his family, and trying to "ruin" his relationship with his wife Nicola.
