Jackie Apostel, the girlfriend of Cruz Beckham, captured the public's attention when she was seen with the Beckham family at Paris Fashion Week on Sept. 27.

Jackie, who is 9 years older than Cruz, was first linked to David Beckham’s youngest son in reports from The Sun in April, following their close interaction at the Glastonbury music festival in June.

Despite their age difference, Jackie appears to be well-received by the Beckham family, having even been gifted a £900 dress from Victoria's Secret for her appearance at the fashion event. She was also seen socializing with Cruz’s brother, Romeo, and friends at the Everyman Cinema in London.

Jackie, a 28-year-old pop singer and songwriter from Brazil, blends her Brazilian and German roots in her music. She writes songs in both English and Portuguese and is signed with Warner Chappell Brazil. Jackie started playing the piano at two and later developed interests in acting and poetry.

She briefly performed with the Brazilian girl group Schutz at 26 before leaving to focus on her solo songwriting career, according to Hello! magazine.

Her music draws inspiration from iconic artists like Queen, Elton John, and The Weeknd. She has written songs for artists such as Shy Smith, Girli, and Cleo, as noted by the South China Morning Post.

Despite having 100,000 followers on Instagram, Jackie hasn't achieved widespread fame, leading some to speculate that her relationship with 19-year-old Cruz Beckham is a strategy to boost her visibility.

The couple's presence at Paris Fashion Week stirred discussions about their age gap, with opinions dividedaccording to The New York Post.

"At an older age, the difference of a decade starts to make less difference, however, someone around twenty years old will be at a very different stage of development. Bit cringe really," one person claimed.

Another argued: "The age gap isn’t the problem."

Amidst the buzz around Victoria Beckham's Paris show, Cruz faced allegations of infidelity from his ex-girlfriend Bby Ivy, known as Viktorial Reitan. She posted a TikTok video featuring the two of them together, captioned: "This is how we were together and he still cheated," suggesting his infidelity.

This claim was further circulated by another ex-girlfriend, Issey Moloney, intensifying the scrutiny on Cruz’s personal life.
