David Beckham BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
David Beckham has been everywhere these past few days, making headlines not just for his business moves and eye-popping paydays but also for some ongoing family drama that just won’t quit. The biggest development by far—Sir David Beckham, yes he was officially knighted this year, and crowned for his services to sport and charity—just bagged a cool 26 million pounds from his sprawling media, fashion, and sports empire after another record year. According to PA Media and newly filed company accounts from DRJB Holdings, Beckham’s brand pulled in profits up 24 percent for 2024, plus fresh revenues and a big splash in supplement launches and fashion partnerships, including a new menswear collection with Boss and a cash-rich tie-in with Stella Artois.
Beckham’s company paid out a whopping 52.5 million pounds in dividends to shareholders in 2024, which means that through his personal business, Footwork Productions, David took home around 26 million of that. This follows an even bigger payout from last year and takes him closer to the kind of billionaire status that only a handful of retired athletes ever achieve. His net worth, according to Celebrity Net Worth, hovers around 450 million dollars, with some sources placing the family’s combined fortune even higher, making the Beckhams not just soccer royalty but business dynamos. The business empire reaches far: from Inter Miami’s historic Messi signing—a move David said felt like winning the World Cup all over again—to Studio 99, the production house behind the hit Beckham docuseries on Netflix, with another documentary about Victoria Beckham set to debut next week.
But off the pitch and away from boardrooms, it’s family friction grabbing as much attention as Beckham’s brand deals. During Paris Fashion Week, Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz skipped Victoria’s fashion show, once again fueling rumors of an ongoing rift that began at their 2022 wedding when Nicola chose not to wear Victoria’s designs. The rest of the Beckham clan—David, Romeo, Cruz with his girlfriend Jackie Apostel, and Harper—were photographed in full support and stylish rain-drenched solidarity for Victoria at the show. British media speculates about why Brooklyn and Nicola missed David’s lavish 50th birthday earlier this year, but sources close to the family wave away talk that Romeo’s relationship with Brooklyn’s ex is the cause.
The feud isn’t slowing David down. Strategic partnerships are rolling in—latest contracts with US giant Verizon just as the countdown to the 2026 World Cup picks up, and the group’s growth momentum continues in 2025, with more brand launches expected. On social media, Brooklyn posted a hearts-and-diamonds tribute to Nicola, while telling Daily Mail he tunes out gossip and is “happy” just playing golf. Meanwhile, the Beckhams remain a photogenic, front-row force, all business and big smiles as Sir David rides yet another wave of high-profile headlines.
