It’s no secret that David Beckham makes a lot of money as a football icon and heartthrob, but his firm also pays well.
While he previously admitted to being ‘jealous’ of wife Victoria, we’re jealous of whatever employee received the eye-watering amount of £10,000,000.
DB Ventures, one of Becks’ many enterprises, paid the cool multimillion-pound sum to an unidentified mystery individual in 2022.
‘Golden Balls’ is worth $450 million (£370 million) with his Spice Girl wife, however it is unclear whether he received this large amount.
The records, obtained by The Mirror, show that the highest-paid director of DB Ventures received the remuneration – but the firm failed to identify who that is.
Along with the Manchester United legend, Jamie Salter and Nick Woodhouse are directors in the company, thus one of these three guys won the award.
‘I’m afraid we won’t be disclosing who the highest-paid director is,’ a spokesperson for the 48-year-old legend told the publication.
The enormous bonus was allegedly five times the total earnings of the company’s other 23 employees.
This is just one firm in Beckham’s DRJB Holdings Limited empire, which is a ‘full-service global brand management operation’.
Whoever the lucky director is, he or she will not get this on an annual basis, since the compensation increased 384% from the previous year, while the company’s turnover quadrupled to £72 million in 2022.
The same year, Beckham allegedly sold a 55% ownership in the company to Authentic Brands for £200 million.
For any business outside of DB Ventures, the former England captain owns Seven Global, which produced an £8.4 million profit through agreements with Adidas, Tudor, and Safilo.
Victoria is also enjoying a successful year with her businesses, as one £30 product has actually captured TikTok’s attention.
The Satin Kajal Liner, which is available in 16 shades, is selling so quickly that the manufacturer is straining to keep up with demand.
Her fashion line has been losing money since its inception in 2008, although her major financial supporter, David Belhassen, predicted that the brand will generate a profit.
Accounts are due this month, but it is estimated Posh’s sales has increased by nearly 50% to £58 million, thanks in part to the success of the cosmetics brand, which debuted in 2019.
With all of these firms, we’re confident the Beckhams were able to restore Storm Henk’s damage to their £12 million house in the Cotswolds last month.
