Victoria Beckham is one of the UK's most recognisable celebrities. After starring on her first US Vogue cover in 1998, the 48-year-old has gone on to appear in countless more magazines and TV shows covers.
She’s head of Britain’s other royal Family – the Beckhams – alongside her husband, English football legend David Beckham; and the music she made as part of the Spice Girls continues to be played by millions of fans each year, despite the band going on hiatus 18 years ago.
If that’s not enough, Posh Spice also happens to be a style icon, a world-renowned fashion designer, and someone who appears to have the pick of any endorsement deal going.
Along with all of this success has come a substantial fortune, so join HELLO! as we explore Victoria's Beckham's net worth, annual earnings, and real estate.
What is Victoria Beckham's net worth?
With so many sources of income on offer, it's not really surprising to learn that Victoria Beckham is one of the wealthiest women in the UK. According to The Sunday Times' 2022 Rich List estimations, she and her husband David Beckham share a total net worth of around £380million, up £10million from what they were worth in 2021.
But how did Victoria come to earn her share of this fortune? Born in Hounslow, Essex, on the 17th April 1974 to Jacqueline Doreen and Anthony William Adams, the star – who is incredibly close to her family – is the oldest of three children and has two siblings called Louise and Christian.

Raised in Hertfordshire, the A-lister's family were able to have a comfortable upbringing after her dad founded an electronic wholesale business. They even had a Rolls Royce as a family car when Victoria was growing up – so it is perhaps little surprise that on joining the Spice Girls, Victoria was given her famous moniker 'Posh Spice'.
Victoria's journey to personal fame and fortune began when she decided she wanted to pursue a career in music. Inspired by the movie Fame, which she saw when she was six years old, Victoria joined theatre schools as a child and then auditioned for the Spice Girls in in 1994 when aged just 20.

After their debut single 'Wannabe' became a huge hit in over 35 countries, the group went on to release the albums Spice, Spiceworld and Forever. Over the years, the Spice Girls had nine number ones and sold over 100 million records worldwide, a stat which still makes them the best-selling female group of all time.
But how much did all this actually make Victoria? Short answer: a lot. According to Rolling Stone magazine, the Spice Girls each earned up to £60million per year during their 90's heyday. Their 1998 tour grossed £48million for its American leg alone and when they briefly regrouped in 2008 for a reunion tour they all banked another £50million or so.

In between stints with the Spice Girls, Victoria also dabbled in a solo career, however it didn't prove to be a huge money earner despite the singer having four top ten UK singles in her own right.
How much does Victoria Beckham earn in a year?
According to Forbes, in 2011 the Beckhams earned an estimated $45million per year. Now, both inflation and the couple's further successful extensions of 'Brand Beckham' suggest that over the past decade this number will only have increased.
Having said that, how much Victoria earns per year will likely vary a lot depending on what work she does in addition to her work on her fashion brand. In the past, Victoria has done a considerable amount of advertisements and endorsements.

In 2003, the then-singer acted as the face of RocaWear for an undisclosed sum. In 2007, she starred alongside her Spice Girls bandmates for a Christmas Tesco advert which netted them £1million each. Then in 2009 she signed a £12million deal with Armani.
Perhaps of all the star's many endorsements over the years, it was her collaboration and endorsement of beauty house Estée Lauder that was the most iconic of her partnerships. The star released two collections for the brand which flew off the shelves in the 2010s, perhaps leading to her decision to launch Victoria Beckham Beauty in 2019.
Other work which has netted Victoria more earnings over the years includes her several book deals and appearances on documentaries and reality TV shows such as Being Victoria Beckham. The designer has also been a judge on fashion shows including Germany's Next Top Model and Project Runway.

How much money does Victoria Beckham earn from her fashion label?
Despite the fact that it was her time in the Spice Girls which launched Victoria Beckham into superstardom, the Essex-born A-lister is now perhaps best known for her eponymous fashion label instead.
Victoria launched Victoria Beckham to a small presentation in 2008, then in 2011 she also launched a smaller more affordable line known as Victoria by Victoria Beckham.
The 48-year-old, who had previously worked with partners to produce accessories, perfumes, and her own denim line, took to the fashion world. And while the former girl-group member and ultimate WAG may have had a few snide comments from industry insiders when she was starting out, she has certainly gone on to quash any lingering critics with her designs. Most recently, her success was seen as she exhibited for the second time at Paris Fashion Week in 2023.
However, Victoria's fashion label is not necessarily a high earner for the star. Over the past few years, news has come out revealing that since its launch in 2008, Victoria Beckham has actually lost rather than earned money, with Victoria, David and other shareholders having to intervene during the pandemic to keep the label afloat.
However, a report from her brand's investor, David Belhassen, in March 2023 suggested that things might finally be on the up for the label.

How many homes do David and Victoria Beckham own?
Despite some issues with her fashion label, thanks to Victoria and David's many successful projects, Brand Beckham have also owned an impressive amount of real estate over the years where they have lived with their four children: Brooklyn, Cruz, Romeo, and Harper.
In 2003, when David was still a super in-demand footballer, the whole clan upped and moved to a £5million home near the Spanish capital after he was snapped up for a cool £25 million to play for the Spanish giants Real Madrid.
Then in 2007, the Beckhams cemented their A-list status with a hotly-anticipated move to Los Angeles after David had signed a contract with football team LA Galaxy. They bought their home for £8.4million, then sold it in 2018 for an incredible £25million.
However, following David's retirement from football in 2013, the couple chose to move back to the UK with their family. The couple now live together in Holland Park, London, in a stunning £31 million mansion.
The couple also own a Cotswolds-based barn conversion with added Estonian-style sauna, plunge pool, football pitch and swimming pool which is worth circa £20million, and a Miami mansion worth $24million dollars.
