Victoria Beckham may be dismissed by many as less talented than her superstar footballer husband David Beckham, but behind the big sunglasses lies a cute business brain.
As global power couple Posh and Becks, have a combined net worth of £165m according to 2011 Sunday Times Rich List.Victoria's net worth is valued at $450 million.
Wag no more, Victoria Beckham is firmly out from under husband David's shadow. Her fashion collections have won critical acclaim, along with a devoted celebrity following. Stars from Kate Winslet and Gwyneth Paltrow to Oprah Winfrey have worn her sharply tailored dresses, which carry four-figure price tags, and she may soon be able to add "by royal appointment" to her eponymous brand – the new Duchess of Cambridge viewed samples for her honeymoon wardrobe. Handbags were recently added to Mrs. Beckham's range and you'd need a Premier League player picking up the tab for one called the Victoria, a snip at £18,000.
Victoria, 37, made £10m from her Spice Girl days and while her fashion business so far funds itself without being a real money-spinner, it is set to be the source of her future earnings. Her autobiography and two other bestselling fashion and style books will have added to her fortune.
