Cruz, the 20-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham, made headlines when he announced his romantic relationship with singer Jackie Apostel, 29, but they have remained steadfast despite age gap concerns.
Cruz Beckham’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel has hit back at concerns over her age gap with the musician as she gets close to his famous family. The 20-year-old debuted his romance with Jackie, 29, last year and the pair have looked loved up ever since.
They first stepped out together at Glastonbury following the break down of Cruz’s relationship with Norwegian music artist Viktoria Reitan, known as Bby. Cruz and singer Jackie initially turned heads with their age gap, but they have continued to brush off any doubts.
Jackie was invited to Cruz’s famous mum Victoria’s fashion show in Paris over the weekend, making her the only girlfriend to be invited to the family event. Cruz’s older brother Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz have distanced themselves from the family, while brother Romeo split from his girlfriend Kim Turnbull amid the recent dramas.

The Spice Girl shared photos of her husband David, sons Cruz, Romeo, Harper, and Jackie after Victoria’s Paris Fashion Week show. She exclaimed, “I love you all so much… Without you, I couldn’t do it. Xx”.
However, under the post one follower commented: “Why is a 29 year old dating a 20 [year old],” in reference to Cruz and Jackie. Another wrote: “That’s just weird.”
Jackie responded, “Because he’s kind, funny, smart, caring, driven, mature, talented, loyal, and also quite handsome,” after the comments.
Additionally, Jackie shared images of Cruz and Victoria’s post on her own Instagram account. Victoria gave the appearance of approbation when she said, “So pretty!! Xxx”.
The singer also shared photos of Victoria’s show and a photo of herself wearing one of her dresses, saying, “What an incredible show and in my favorite dress yet. @victoriabeckham awed to see everything come to life.
When reports of Jackie and Cruz’s age gap first emerged, a source told OK! : “Although Victoria is pleased that Cruz seems happy in his relationship, she does have some concerns about the age gap and whether her youngest son is ready for that kind of commitment.
“She really likes Jackie, and Jackie seems to get along with everyone in the family,” Victoria would be lying if she claimed that her age, which is 10 years older than Cruz, is not a concern. While Jackie is a fully mature woman at a different stage of her life and may want things Cruz isn’t quite ready for, Cruz is still a teenager.
However, it appears that Victoria and husband David have spent time with Brooklyn, their oldest son, since then. After missing David’s 50th birthday in May, he hasn’t been seen with his family in months.
Brooklyn has instead been relaxing with his wife Nicola’s family by renewing their engagement to her only with her side and taking a trip on her billionaire father’s yacht rather than her husband’s vessel.
