Cruz Beckham, 19, has fallen head over heels for Brazillian singer Jackie Apostel, 29, as he told his social media followers he was in love.

David and Victoria Beckham’s youngest son made his feelings for his new girlfriend perfectly clear while celebrating her 29th birthday on Friday.

In an Instagram story, Cruz showed Jackie sitting in front of a large cake waiting to blow out the candles with the caption: ‘Happy Birthday xx I love you.’

Meanwhile, on Jackie’s Instagram, she shared a mirror selfie with Cruz that was accompanied by a few kissy emojis.

The pair, who have a ten-year age gap, seem more loved up together and have previously been seen out and about in Beverley Hills putting on passionate PDA and attending high-profile events together.

The loved-up couple were first linked in April after Cruz ended things with the Norwegian music artist Bby Ivy, Viktoria Reitan.

Dating rumours picked up in June when they were spotted at Glastonbury Festival and shortly after that, what appeared to be a date night.

Since then she has been embraced by the whole Beckham clan, sitting with them on their front row at Victoria’s presentation at Paris Fashion Week and even wearing a dress designed by Posh Spice herself.

The latest relationship comes after he was accused of cheating on Viktoria in a TikTok video she posted last month that was re-shared by another romantic interest, Issey Moloney.

Cruz has not responded to the rumours.

He also split from his long-term girlfriend, Tana Holding last year. A source told MailOnline at the time: ‘Cruz and Tana quietly split over the summer. They’re very private. It was a teenage romance, but sadly it just didn’t work out.’

Outside of his romantic life, Cruz has decided he wants to pursue a music career and follow in the footsteps of his mother who is a Spice Gurls alum.

Earlier this year reports in The Sun suggested his family was backing his dream and had supposedly spent ‘a fortune’ on ‘getting him in rooms with some of the best brains in the business’ such as songwriter Ed Drewett (behind hits such as Little Mix’s Black Magic).

He initially launched his music career in 2016, aged 13, with a Christmas single, If Every Day Was Christmas, but hasn’t done much since then.

In 2022, he spoke more about his ambitions, and process, to i-D, admitting he was self-teaching himself various instruments.

He added: ‘I even learnt how to play the mandolin for a song that I wrote. I don’t think you ever stop learning, but I’m taking my time seeing what happens [and focusing on] just making the music I love.’

Cruz’s new relationship is not the only Beckham romance in the air. His brother Romeo, 22, has also debuted his new girlfriend, Gray Sorrenti. She is the daughter of fashion photographer Mario Sorrenti, a profession she has entered too.

Victoria and Mario have worked together since 2019, meaning it is very likely Romeo and Gray have crossed paths more than once. And Victoria also follows Gray on Instagram.
