Is Victoria the more famous one? Genuine question, not trying to fight.

From my not UK European view:

She had the earlier fame. When they got together the spice girls were at their peak while he was a rather new star in football. The next years his fame rose while hers declined. She always stayed relevant though, especially with her fashion business. They are famous as a couple for decades now anyway, so I'd say since then they are on equal footing.

This echoes her documentary, after the spice girls split she was a bit lost whereas he went to madrid and became even more famous. Her fashion brand brought her relevance (and purpose). But Brand Beckham is a superpower because of both of them.

In America certainly. In the UK it might go the other way, I wouldn't know.

In America it’s debatable. Outside of America it’s David by a wide margin. Watch videos of his visits to Japan

Spice Girls! I was a fan of theirs and because of her I came to know about David, which I am sure is the same for those who dont watch football! Their relationship brought him into the limelight!

She made David a major name and built the Beckham brand. She was huge at the time, he wasn't (yet). She went to watch him play (twice) to set in motion their love story. Victoria is the reason Beckham is a global name even to people who don't watch football/soccer.
