David and Victoria Beckham have finally joined the billionaire club

After years of the A-listers' business ventures, Brand Beckham is now officially worth an eye-watering one billion dollars – meaning Posh and Becks aren’t just everyone's couple goals, but everyone's life goals. (And the good news comes just before they celebrate their 20th anniversary in July. Yay!)

According to the Mirror, the billion - which converts to around £7000,000 - includes around £100m from Victoria’s namesake fashion empire, but the figure also includes heaps of money from David’s football career and numerous lucrative endorsement deals with the likes of Adidas, Pepsi, Samsung and H&M (oh, and before we forget, he also has his own brand of whiskey.)

And while Victoria might not be participating in the upcoming Spice Girls reunion tour, she still has a cool £10m in the bank from Moody Productions, which was accumulated from her time in the band.

When Geri wore THAT iconic dress

Geri's Union Jack dress has become synonymous with the Spice Girls and girl power in general. The dress came to be at the 1997 BRIT Awards because Geri didn't want to wear the black Gucci dress her stylist had given her...so she glued a Union Jack tea towel to the front of it. She later sold it at auction for £40,000.

When they got the royal treatment

The Spice Girls never held back - even when meeting the monarchy. Mel C broke royal protocol by kissing Prince Charles on the cheek when she met him at a Prince's Trust concert in 1997. Meanwhile Geri went in for the kill with a pinch of the bum...

In the words of Regina George's mum 'I'm not a regular mom, I'm a cool mom'. If this photo isn't proof that Fergie is the COOLEST mum, then we don't know what is. Princess Eugenie and Beatrice look beyond thrilled to meet their idols.

When they made a film

Released in December 1997, Spiceworld: The Movie, is arguably the film of our generation. So it's no surprise that names such as Roger Moore, Stephen Fry, Elton John, Jennifer Saunders and Richard E. Grant all wanted to get involved.

When they finally reunited

In 2008, the Spice Girls gave us EXACTLY what we'd been dreaming of since they split in 1998 - when they announced their reunion tour. The girls even brought their babies on stage. Verdict: definitely worth the wait.

When they showed us the true meaning of "Sporty" Spice

The Spice Girls were undoubtedly the main event at the 2012 Olympics closing ceremony in London. When they popped out of their black cabs, it's fair to say that it was the best surprise we've ever had.

We didn't think it was possible to fall even more in love with the Spice Girls until we found out VB isn't so POSH after all - besides, who doesn't take part in a last minute TESCO dash at Christmas?

AND when she showed her humour AND flexibility

Don't mind V.B, just adopting a casual pose whilst she reads through emails on her lush sofa... seriously Posh, you are one funny woman. We're already practicing the same leg-pose for when we eventually reply to work emails.

When Geri met Charles...

Who can forget when Geri met Prince Charles at the 1st anniversary concert for the Princes' Trust in 1997? Ginger spice certainly wasn't shy in THAT outfit - she even enjoyed a cheeky flirt with the prince.

A much more sophisticated meeting this time. The pair looked like good old friends catching up as they chatted all things spice at another Princes' Trust event over two decades later.

When four of the band announced a 2019 reunion... and Posh showed her support

When four of the band announced a 2019 reunion, Posh still showed her support. Victoria took to Instagram to support her former bandmates. She said, "Today marks a special day for the girls as they announce the first tour dates since we performed together in 2012! I won't be joining my girls on stage again but being in the Spice Girls was a hugely important part of my life and I wish them so much love and fun as they go back on tour next year. I know they will put on an amazing show and the fantastic fans past and present are going to have a wonderful time! "

Plus, Posh is expected to make even more cash from the comeback (and she still continues to make money from the group’s back catalogue.) Finally adding to the grand total are the couple’s many properties, including their £35.1m West London home and a £6m Cotswolds retreat.

It might have taken a long time to reach the landmark, but one person who predicted the rise (and rise) of Brand Beckham is Spice Girls manager Simon Fuller.

When the pair signed with him all the way back in 1995, he said: “Victoria’s glamour and David’s sex appeal and sporting prowess could over the long-term create a $1billion brand.”

Now, with the Beckhams’ four kids, it looks like the family name will become even more valuable; Brooklyn is already making his name as a photographer– despite his book of photography What I See being critically panned – and Romeo, at the age of 16, has already been the face of Burberry’s Christmas campaign.

Somehow we think the money is going to continue rolling in for one of Britain’s most famous families.
