Victoria Beckham has given a subtle glimpse into her relationship with her son Cruz’s long-term girlfriend, Jackie Apostel. Singer-songwriter Jackie, 30, and Cruz, 21, put on a loved-up display over the weekend in a series of dreamy photos from a tropical getaway – and Victoria responded with the most heartwarming public message for her youngest son’s girlfriend.
Jackie stunned in a backless little black dress with her hair styled straight in a bob while posing with the ocean and palm trees as an idyllic backdrop. Cruz had his arm draped around his girlfriend in one romantic photo from their lavish holiday album, which was inundated with compliments, including two words from her boyfriend’s mum.
“So pretty,” Victoria gushed with several red heart emojis.
Victoria’s bond with Jackie
Jackie and Cruz have been romantically linked since mid-2024, and since then, Jackie has joined her boyfriend’s family for several major milestones. Earlier this month, she posed for family photos with the Beckham clan while in Miami to support David Beckham at the opening of the new Inter Miami Stadium, named the Nu Stadium. Jackie shared the group shot on her social media and personally wished her boyfriend’s dad “congratulations”.
Days after Jackie celebrated Easter in Miami with Cruz’s family, Victoria showed a subtle sign of affection for her son’s girlfriend on social media. Victoria sweetly dropped a couple of red heart emojis beneath sun-soaked photos of Jackie posing in a bikini and showing off her natural look with minimal makeup. Victoria previously told Jackie, “We love you!!!!” in a public comment on a Valentine’s Day tribute Jackie posted for her boyfriend, Cruz.
Jackie praised Victoria after joining her and the rest of the Beckhams for the premiere of Victoria’s documentary last October. “We are all so in awe of you. To me, it’s the little things, such as the fact that you wake up every morning, positive and ready to be a bright light to everyone around you that might need it, no matter what is going on with yourself,” Jackie gushed on Instagram.
“You want every single person you love to succeed and do their best and will do anything you can to help them, and gladly. On top of the unbelievably smart businesswoman that no doubt you are, that is definitely what impresses me the most every day,” she added.
“Your resilience and drive is inspiring. Glad everyone gets to see a little glimpse of the hard-working, intelligent and hilarious person you are in this doc. We love u!”

Jackie has made it clear she has nothing but love and admiration for both of her boyfriend’s parents. After David received his knighthood in November, Jackie wrote on Instagram that there was “nothing quite as beautiful as seeing deserving and truly GOOD people achieve their dreams.
“What an inspiration to everyone to always keep going and never lose your character, drive but also kindness. No matter how crazy a dream is or how long it could take,” she said, adding that “the most inspiring thing to see is how you both support each other’s ambitions.”
While Jackie appears to have established a close relationship with the Beckham brood, it’s been a turbulent year for the Beckhams after Brooklyn Beckham made several bombshell allegations about the family’s alleged treatment of his wife, Nicola Peltz, in January.
In a scathing social media post in January, Brooklyn claimed his parents had tried to “ruin” his relationship with Nicola since before their April 2022 wedding.
