When they tied the knot on July 4, 1999, David Beckham and Victoria Adams were already well-known figures in the sports and music industries, but a quarter of a century later, they have not only sustained their fame but have also become one of the most influential power couples in the realm of celebrities.
Their joint wealth is estimated at 455 million pounds (approximately 575 million dollars) as per The Times’ list of affluent personalities. Both have successfully ventured into business endeavors, with David focusing on sports investments and Victoria dedicated to her fashion brand.
Their enduring relationship weathered even the storm of an alleged affair by David with his personal assistant, Rebecca Loos, during his time at Real Madrid from 2003 to 2004, a period that Victoria recollected as a challenging time in a documentary released on Netflix last year.
Speculations about Their Relationship Status
Despite rumors, the couple has not confirmed David’s alleged transgressions or any other scandals reported by tabloids. Recently, journalist Tom Boyer suggested in his book ‘The House of Beckham’ a theory of a possible unofficial separation, attributing it to David spending substantial time in Miami as the president of Inter Miami, while Victoria shuttles between London and New York for her business commitments.
Unfazed by the speculations, the couple commemorated Victoria’s 50th birthday last April with a lavish party in London, featuring a Spice Girls reunion where they performed their hit song ‘Stop,’ captured by David in a viral Instagram post that garnered much attention.
Describing it as the ‘Best night ever,’ Victoria frequently shares joyful moments on her social media alongside her spouse and their four children – Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper Seven.
David and Victoria’s Lavish Wedding
Their family journey commenced with the birth of Brooklyn four months before their grand nuptials.
The couple exchanged vows at Luttrellstown Castle near Dublin in a grand ceremony attended by 300 guests, with the venue’s rental alone costing nearly 800,000 dollars.
Dubbed as the ‘wedding of the year,’ the extravagant affair was extensively covered by the British media, and the exclusive coverage rights were sold to ‘OK!’ magazine for a record sum of 1.2 million dollars.
David and Victoria meticulously coordinated their attire, both sporting champagne-colored outfits – Victoria wore a design by Vera Wang – embodying the opulent aesthetics of the nineties.
“It seemed like a very good idea at the time,” shared Victoria in a 2021 interview with Jimmy Fallon, acknowledging their naivety as they ventured into fashion with a desire for enjoyment rather than expertise.
The intimate ceremony was attended by around thirty loved ones, followed by a star-studded reception graced by luminaries such as Elton John, the Spice Girls, and the entire Manchester United squad in which David played at the time.
“My children are my greatest achievements in life, thank you @victoriabeckham for blessing me with these extraordinary individuals to love,” David recently expressed on his social platforms.
