Wayne’s fortune was swelled by huge paydays as a player with Man Utd.
Boot deals with Adidas, various other sponsorships, and now a manager’s income has supplemented his net worth.
But in recent times it’s Coleen who is making a packet – through Disney with a documentary about her infamous Wagatha Christie trial.
And previously, with her autobiography and children’s books.

It’s fair to say the majority of their shared wealth stems from Messi.
The Argentinian is currently earning around £16million-per-year in the MLS playing for Inter Miami.
Antonella trained as a dentist.
But, thanks to her good looks she signed as a model with designer Ricky Sarkany and has designed her own threads too.

A surprise, perhaps, to not see them top of the tree. Although, their time will come.
Ronaldo is the highest paid playing sports star on the planet.
His contract with Al-Nassr is said to be worth £173million-per-year.
Gorgeous Georgina, a former shop assistant with Gucci, is making her own money though – starring in her own Netflix documentary I Am Georgina – think Kardashians but with football.
Instagram1. David and Victoria Beckham, £412m
Spice Girl legend Victoria is THE original Wag and her fortune helps her and Becks take top spot by a mere £1million.
She was part of the Baden-Baden crew at the 2006 World Cup, although she was clearly queen.
Not only is she a pop superstar, the glamorous singer has conquered the fashion world with her high-end line.
David, still, holds ambassador roles for various fashion and lifestyle brands, while ‘Brand Beckham’ itself got a shot in the arm with a recent Netflix series about his life.
That’s on top of the millions he made as a footballer, of course.
