Cruz Beckham's girlfriend channels inner Victoria with bob and black dress
Cruz Beckham's girlfriend, Jackie Apostel, looked shockingly similar to matriarch Victoria Beckham as she showcased her slicked-back bob and form-fitting black dress
Cruz Beckham's girlfriend, Jackie Apostel, channelled her inner Victoria Beckham as she shared snaps of herself rocking a bob and a stunning black dress. She bore a striking resemblance to Posh Spice in her heyday in an off-the-shoulder form-fitting black dress with a slicked back bob.
In one snap, the 29-year-old gave the camera a pout as she leaned on the wall behind her. Another showed her looking off-screen as she gave a sly smile. The star, who captioned the carousel of snaps with an anatomically correct heart emoji, also showed fans a polaroid of Cruz, 20, giving her a kiss on the cheek.
In recent months, fans have noticed her rocking similar looks to ones Victoria has rocked over the years, including modern versions of her iconic little black dress, leisurewear and a gorgeous satin dress.
Earlier this month, while the Beckham family feud was still fresh, Jackie seemingly took a swipe at Cruz's older brother Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz.
Jackie appeared alongside him at several of David Beckham 's 50th birthday events. While the rest of the Beckham clan gathered to toast the milestone, one pair was noticeably absent - his eldest son Brooklyn and his wife, actress Nicola.
Jackie, who is said to have grown close to Victoria, subtly added fuel to the fire with a seemingly heartfelt Instagram post from the festivities.
One photo showed Cruz cheekily holding a knife toward her in a joking manner, while Jackie captioned the collection: 'I wish you could feel how much love was in the room these days through the phone.' A sweet sentiment on the surface - but fans had speculated that it was also a quiet dig at those who chose not to show up.
In December last year, an insider told The Mirror Victoria was concerned about the age gap in Cruz's relationship with the Brazilian singer.
They told the Mirror: "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.
"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 is still a teenager whereas Jackie is a fully grown woman who is at a different stage in her life and may want things that Cruz is not quite ready for.
"Victoria knows her kids have had to grow up quicker than 'normal' kids but she wants them to have as much fun as possible before they settle down.
"She is conscious of being seen as the interfering 'mother-in-law' but she has to protect her children and she's also joked that she doesn't want it to be Cruz who is the first one to make her a grandma!"

'Prince Harry's fallen short with unexpected move - the irony is hard to ignore'
Prince Harry's surprise appearance in China appeared to fall short with the 'irony' of the trip hard to ignore, according to an expert. The Duke of Sussex jetted all the way to Shanghai to be at a global travel and tourism conference in the city, where he gave a keynote speech urging the travel industry to support sustainable travel and tourism and shared climate goals. Harry is the co-founder of the not-for-profit organisation Travalyst, which promotes sustainable travel. However, the timing of the visit came just as his estranged father King Charles was arriving in Canada for a historic visit, where he gave a speech in parliament. But despite Harry's trip to China also marking a first, as it was his first trip to the country, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond believes it didn't make the waves Harry might have been hoping. She told the Mirror: "Fortunately it seems not to have overshadowed Charles and Camilla's trip to Canada. In fact, it seems to have made very little news at all. If the idea was to garner as much publicity for the cause as possible, it would seem to have fallen rather short. "There was no advance information about it and not much of a splash when he was there. But he is clearly employed by Travalyst to make keynote speeches like this, and I'm sure he made a good job of it. The timing of the conference would have been coincidental to the King's trip to Canada, certainly not deliberate. "However, the irony of flying across the world to promote sustainable, environmentally friendly travel is hard to ignore. Surely a video speech would have been more ethical? The same criticism could be lobbed at William flying around the world to host the Earthshot Awards but sometimes it just raises the profile in a way nothing else could. I'm not sure that Harry's presence did the same." Harry's trip came amid reports that have suggested that all that could be set to change as he attempts to find a 'new purpose'. It is reported that Harry could be launching his own commercial venture in the next few months, while also concentrating on his Invictus Games Foundation. There are no details so far on what the venture could be, which will be one of the first tasks for the Sussex's newly formed team of advisors. But Jennie said: "Personally, I think this commercial route opens him up to all sorts of accusations of trading on his royal status which would make him an even angrier young man than at present. "I think Harry is still trying to figure out where he goes from here. By normal standards, he's a very rich man, but life in Montecito doesn't come cheap, especially with all the security costs he deems necessary. "So is he content for his wife to be the breadwinner while he concentrates on the children and charity work? There's nothing wrong with that but he might feel he needs to pursue commercial ventures too." Prince Harry's recent appearances have seen him promote his charitable and non-profit causes. And Jennie added: "There's nothing wrong with being a stay-at-home dad and using his influence to help charities around the world. He's brilliant at interacting with people and at just being Harry. He should perhaps stick to what he's born to, trained for and truly good at."
