Meet Jackie Apostel, the “music manager” behind Cruz Beckham — and, as it turns out, his girlfriend!
From music mentor to girlfriend
Jackie, now 30, is a Brazilian-German musician and model who was brought in to help Cruz, 20, develop his debut sound. The Beckhams had paid her to guide him through songwriting, recording, and performances. But somewhere between studio sessions and late-night rehearsals, the two fell in love.
According to a Daily Mail source:
“Jackie was there for every part of the process — writing, filming, performing. Without her, Cruz’s album wouldn’t exist.”
And it worked — Cruz just dropped his first EP Optics/Lick The Toad last week, with Jackie by his side in every step.
Love in the studio
Jackie once shared on Instagram:
“I walked into the studio just to work. But that day, I realized he was a real artist — one who loves music from the heart.”
Their bond grew stronger, and she became both his creative partner and emotional support. David and Victoria are said to be very fond of her — even publicly wishing her a happy birthday and calling her “a beautiful person inside and out.”
A 10-year age gap, but no secrets
Despite criticism over their 10-year age difference, Jackie clapped back:
“He’s kind, smart, funny, talented, and loyal — and yes, also very handsome.”
The pair went public in October last year after being spotted together at Glastonbury Festival. Recently, Jackie has been seen cheering Cruz on backstage at gigs with his band, Cruz Beckham & The Breakers.
“Mini Victoria”?
Fans can’t help but notice Jackie’s resemblance to Victoria Beckham — slim figure, brunette hair, and a polished fashion sense. Some even say she’s helped Cruz shape his image the same way Victoria once guided David during their early years together.
A source revealed:
“Jackie is smart, creative, and incredibly kind. The whole Beckham family adores her.”
From “hired mentor” to “official girlfriend,” Jackie Apostel hasn’t just helped Cruz Beckham grow as an artist — she’s also turned their “mentor-student romance” into one of the most talked-about stories in British showbiz.
