Cruz Beckham, the youngest son of Victoria and David Beckham, has been making headlines after being spotted with his girlfriend, Jackie Apostel, at Paris Fashion Week. The couple’s stylish appearance, hand-in-hand at the event, quickly caught the attention of onlookers and sparked discussions online.
Jackie Apostel, a 28-year-old German-Brazilian singer-songwriter, is nearly nine years older than Cruz, who recently turned 19. Apostel, a former member of the Brazilian girl band Schutz, has been romantically linked to the young Beckham since April 2023, with rumours of their relationship gaining momentum as they were seen strolling through the streets of Paris.
Despite the glamorous backdrop of the fashion event, their age gap has become a point of discussion for many fans, with some expressing surprise and concern over their eight-year difference.

Adding to the drama, the sighting comes just days after Cruz was accused of cheating by a Norwegian singer, stirring even more attention to his personal life. Jackie is set to celebrate her 29th birthday on October 18, making their age gap a central topic of ongoing conversation.
Here’s What Netizens Had to Say
The public reaction to Cruz and Jackie’s relationship has been a mix of intrigue and scepticism, with many taking to social media to share their thoughts. One user on Reddit commented, “The age difference is huge in my book, but what is even more unsettling is that she looks like his mother.” This sentiment was echoed by another, who said, *”Omg I didn’t notice the age difference but I immediately thought she looks like his mom too!”*
While some found the pairing odd, others were quick to defend the couple. One user expressed confusion, stating, “I will be honest, I don’t see it at all,”* while another added, *”They’re skinny brunettes, and that seems to be the extent of it. I’m not sure what other people are seeing.”
However, concerns went beyond just appearances, with one commenter reflecting on the maturity gap: “Their appearance is jarring in itself, but when you add in the developmental milestones and maturity levels between a 19-year-old and a 28-year-old, this whole thing seems creepy as hell.”
Another user voiced their surprise at how the relationship has been allowed to unfold so publicly, saying, “Like none of this makes sense, and I’m surprised his parents are letting him ‘explore’ like this. What do they possibly have in common?”
While the debate continues, it’s clear that Cruz and Jackie’s relationship has become a hot topic, leaving fans curious about what’s next for the young Beckham.
