Ex-England and Man United footballer David Beckham has splashed out on a lavish £5m super yacht, which he helped design! The multi-millionaire, 46, has enjoyed many sea-bound adventures with music legend Sir Elton John - so it’s no surprise he’s coughed up the cash to treat Victoria and the kids.

It’s a whopping 100ft vessel which sources told the Sun: “It’s pretty plush by anyone’s standards. He helped design the boat himself, and has been incredibly hands-on with everything.” Apparently David plans to sail it around the Florida Keys in the New Year - lush!

Since the pandemic hit, there’s been a record-breaking rise in super yacht sales as the super-rich escape to sea, but what’s the appeal of these maritime giants?
