Posh’s worries over Cruz’s 10-year age gap with Jackie Apostel – ‘She wants to protect her children’
With Cruz Beckham’s older girlfriend looking like she’s got her feet firmly under the Beckham table, a source tells OK! that their 10-year age gap has raised a few eyebrows – including mum Victoria’s. Cruz, who was born in February 2005 in Madrid, has been photographed packing on the PDA with Brazilian singer Jackie Apostel, who at 29 is a decade older than her teenage musician beau.
And things certainly seem to be getting serious for the couple, with the youngest Beckham boy declaring “I love u” on a romantic birthday post for Jackie recently, and Jackie being gifted a very sexy and revealing dress by her potential Spice Girl mother-in-law-to-be. According to our source, while Victoria is fully aware that her four kids – including Cruz’s siblings Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, and 13-year-old Harper – have had to “grow up quicker” than non-celebrity children, she’s also very keen for them to make the most of their young, single days and not rush into anything too serious.
“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,” they claimed. “She really likes Jackie, and Jackie seems to get on with all the family but Victoria would be lying if she said that her being 10 years older than Cruz isn’t a worry.
Cruz, who is believed to putting the final touches on his first solo album, and stunning singer-songwriter Jackie started dating in April after he split from Norwegian musician Bby Ivy, whose real name is Viktoria Reitan.
They’ve been photographed together on numerous occasions, including at a cosy celebratory lunch with Victoria after her successful Paris Fashion Week show a few weeks ago. And earlier this month Cruz took Jackie along to join his mum and little sister watch Inter Miami, which David co-owns, play the New England Revolution at the Chase Stadium in Florida.
