Victoria Beckham’s company has made £2million in three years from the Spice Girls reunion – without her singing a note.
Her firm Moody Productions earned £703,000 in 2021 and £403,000 in 2020.
And, in 2019 – when Posh didn’t join Scary Mel B, Sporty Mel C, Baby Emma Bunton and Ginger Geri Horner for their reunion tour – it made a cool £1million.
Posh is still a band member but doesn’t have to sing for her supper because Moody Productions is entitled to a cut of the takings for endorsements, licensing deals and merchandising generated by gigs.
Accounts filed last week show it paid £140,637 in Corporation Tax for 2021 from income, meaning the firm earned £703,000 from the Spicy back catalogue.

But when they kicked off their Spice World Tour in Dublin, in May 2019, Posh was a no-show because of commitments to her fashion business – which this week posted annual losses of £6.3million.
The more lucrative Moody Productions accounts reveal Posh has had more than £5million of loans from it over the years.

Turnover more than trebled to £34,274,658 since the previous year and David and Posh – parents to Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper – paid themselves £6.3million in dividends.
Accounts for Beckham Brand Holdings Ltd, also filed last week, show a £19.1million profit, up from £11.6million.
