Cruz Beckham is with singer-songwriter Jackie Apostel, and has been for around eighteen months – but who is the 29-year-old dating Posh and Beck’s youngest son?
Aside from clearing his parents’ name online and liking memes about his mum, Cruz, 20, has been busy announcing tour dates for his music and posting photo dumps on Instagram since his brother’s shock statement last week.
Brooklyn Beckham, 26, let rip on the family feud that has been ongoing for years, alleging that his parents have tried to ruin his relationship with his now-wife Nicola Peltz, and that his family ‘values public promotion and endorsements above all else’.
In his declaration, which went up on his stories, he called out his two brothers Cruz and Romeo, saying: ‘Even my brothers were sent to attack me on social media, before they ultimately blocked me out of nowhere this last Summer.’
This contradicts the narrative that Cruz claimed in December, which is that he ‘woke up blocked’ by his brother, as did his Mum and Dad.
Unlike Brooklyn and Nicola, Cruz and Jackie seem to have a good relationship with Victoria and David.
Jackie is known to wear Victoria’s label and has shouted out the fashion designer on multiple occasions via her personal Instagram posts.
Here is everything you need to know about one half of the much-talked-about age gap relationship.
Who is Jackie Apostel?
Jackie was born to German and Brazilian parents and lived in both countries before moving to London, where she now resides.
Like Cruz, she’s a musician.
Her Instagram bio reads ‘songwriter’ and if you scroll back a few years her feed is littered with demos and singing videos.
She released an EP in 2020 called The Reformation, but her Spotify and Apple Music profiles show little evidence of much else being released since then.
In a post published in 2022 of a song for the Brazilian film Me Tira da Mira, Jackie wrote on Instagram: ‘Writing for film is the real dream and passion’.
And last November she confirmed that she had ‘zero intention of being an artist and stages frighten [her] like no other’, but she has ‘about 200 songs that are just stuck in a dropbox vault’, so was exploring ways to get her music out there.
We’ve seen snippets of her and Cruz singing together, and it was their love of music which brought them together.
When did she start dating Cruz Beckham?
Jackie first met Cruz when they were ‘put into a studio by [their] managers to write some songs together’, according to a post Jackie uploaded to her Instagram upon Cruz announcing new music last year.
She told her followers: ‘I left that day knowing you were an unbelievable musician but most importantly that you loved it so much from the bottom of your heart and you would never stop, regardless of what anyone else thought.’
The couple declared their love to the online world in October 2024, after being spotted together at Glastonbury Festival that summer and attending events together in the months that followed.
Making it Instagram official, Cruz Beckham declared his love for Jackie by sharing a shot of her blowing out candles and writing ‘Happy birthday xx I love you’.
Jackie also shared a collection of photos from her celebrations, including numerous photos featuring her beau Cruz.
Has she said anything about the Beckham family?
Jackie has had nothing but good things to say about the Beckhams it seems.
She has been vocal in her adoration for Victoria and David, taking to Instagram to shower the couple in praise over the years.
The music artist congratulated Posh Spice on her runway show at Paris Fashion Week in September 2024 via Instagram: ‘The most beautiful show and the most beautiful dress. 🥺❤️ congratulations @victoriabeckham.’
Since then she’s said well done to David on his knighthood, writing: ‘There’s nothing quite as beautiful as seeing deserving and truly GOOD people achieve their dreams.’
She went on: ‘Congratulations on yet another unbelievable and well deserved milestone @davidbeckham , @victoriabeckham and the whole family 🧡.’
And in an Instagram post from today, she was seen wearing another of Victoria’s designs and tagging her boyfriend’s mum in the upload.
While she hasn’t publicly commented on the Brooklyn drama, she’s certainly been showing her support for her potential in-laws.
