Jackie Apostel, 29, publicly hits back at troll’s swipe over her age-gap relationship with Cruz Beckham, 20, after clan put on a united front at Victoria’s Paris Fashion Week show

Jackie Apostel has responded to online criticism after someone made a negative comment about her relationship with Cruz Beckham, focusing on their age difference, on Saturday.

The 29-year-old shared a family photo on Friday, featuring herself and Cruz enjoying the Victoria Beckham’s Paris Fashion Week show from the front row.

Presenting a cohesive image, they sat with Romeo, 23, Harper, 14, and their father David, 50. Notably missing from the group was Brooklyn, 26.

In a heartfelt message, Jackie shared: ‘What a stunning show, and I especially loved the dress! @victoriabeckham it was such an honour to see it all happen.’

I was really upset to see one commenter, a real troll, write this: ‘Why is a 29 year old dating a 20 year old? That’s just weird. I’m talking about Jackie dating Cruz.’ It was a completely unnecessary and hurtful thing to say, and I couldn’t believe someone would actually post something like that. I’m just sharing what they wrote, but it definitely bothered me.

Responding to the comments, Jackie stated: ‘Because he’s kind, funny, smart, caring, driven, mature, talented, loyal, and also quite handsome.

I remember when Cruz and Jackie first got together – it was back in June 2024! It took a few months, but they finally confirmed they were a couple in October when they made things official on Instagram. I was so excited for them!

Just last month, the Daily Mail reported that Jackie’s number of social media followers has increased significantly – it’s actually doubled – since she started dating him. This growth has made her a more appealing choice for the marketing departments of various companies.

The songwriter has recently signed several profitable contracts to represent and advertise some of the most well-known brands globally.

I’m so excited to share that she’s now collaborating with some incredible brands! She’s working with luxury fashion houses like Dior, Burberry and Jimmy Choo. Plus, she’s partnered with the jewellery company Pandora, and amazing beauty brands like Sol De Janeiro and Summer Fridays. It’s a dream come true to see her talent recognized by such prestigious names!

These partnerships include sharing sponsored photos and videos with her 168,000 followers on social media, and experts estimate she can make over £10,000 for each post.

Meanwhile David has continued to post gushing tributes in honour of his wife following her show.

He wrote last night: ‘To say we are proud of you is an understatement, to see you bring everything together so well – in a truly elegant, professional, technically perfect, and determined way – is just incredible. You and your team should know that what you’ve accomplished is special…’

It’s truly special to see a team that genuinely loves and respects you – and it all comes down to how well you treat them. That, to me, is real leadership… Congratulations again, you’re absolutely amazing! And having Knight Rider as the opener? WOW @victoriabeckham, that’s incredible!

He later posted a photo of Victoria, calling her ‘the boss’ and also expressed his appreciation for his mother.

Standing beside two of the most important women in his life, David wrote: ‘I love you mum.’

I was so touched to see another sweet moment from David on his Instagram story! It showed his daughter, Harper, sitting right on his knee, completely captivated as she looked in the mirror. It was just a really heartwarming glimpse into their family life, and honestly, it made my day. #familylove, for sure! Such a precious moment.

The retired footballer shared: ‘Still young enough to do her makeup while sitting on daddy’s lap for the show. Love you @harperbeckham.’

Feeling incredibly proud, Victoria also posted a photo on her social media showing her family seated in the front row.

Victoria simply said: ‘I love you all so much… I couldn’t do it without you! xx’

In a social media post, Cruz, 20, shared a photo from the show, writing: ‘So proud of you mum.

Romeo posted a photo of himself with Harper, and tagged Victoria Beckham, writing: ‘Soooooo good @victoriabeckham.’

Okay, so everyone knows how much the Beckhams adore their mum, right? They *all* publicly showed her love and support. But Brooklyn? He was different. He decided to focus on himself. It’s like he needed to forge his own path, you know? It wasn’t a rejection of his mum, I swear! Just… a very independent choice. I’ve been following him for years, and it’s totally his personality!

In snaps taken on Friday, he decided to publicly promote his own business, Cloud 23.

Brooklyn was seen promoting his hot sauce company while grabbing lunch in Los Angeles on Wednesday. He was wearing a custom-made T-shirt featuring the brand’s logo.
