Cruz Beckham Responds to Nepotism Criticism with Bold Comments
Cruz Beckham, the 19-year-old son of Victoria and David Beckham, is no stranger to public scrutiny. Recently, he found himself at the center of a heated discussion about nepotism following the release of a teaser for his new song "For Ya Love" on Christmas Day. The teaser quickly garnered attention on social media, with some commenters accusing him of using his famous family to launch his music career. One user even remarked that he must have had "mega money and training" behind him, which Cruz swiftly responded to, stating, “Not at all. Just a guitar.”
However, as the criticism continued to flood in, Cruz took a more unexpected approach in his response, stating, “Jesus was also a nepo baby.” This bold comment stirred up more controversy, though Cruz's provocative remark was soon deleted within 12 hours. Despite this, it sparked even more conversation about the challenges he faces in building his career while being constantly associated with his famous parents.

The backlash is nothing new for the Beckham family. Cruz’s older brother Brooklyn has faced similar accusations, particularly over his attempts to establish a career in photography, which many believed was fueled by his family connections. Despite this, Cruz has tried to carve out his own path in music. He has been working with notable professionals, such as songwriter Ed Drewett and producer Fred Ball, who have worked with stars like Beyoncé and Ed Sheeran. Cruz also switched music management this year, signing with C3, the agency behind bands like The Strokes.
Beyond the music scene, Cruz’s personal life has also drawn attention. He has been in a relationship with 29-year-old Brazilian singer-songwriter Jackie Apostel, and the two have been spotted together in Rio de Janeiro, where they enjoyed the sunny beaches. Apostel even defended Cruz in the comments, pointing out that his “expensive fingers” could not be the sole reason behind his talent.
Cruz’s musical journey has been marked by several early steps, including a Christmas song release in 2016 when he was just 11. While his music career didn’t fully take off back then, he’s slowly making a name for himself with his new single. Though he’s still young and trying to make his own mark, Cruz has already shown resilience in the face of online criticism, taking every jab in stride and responding with humor and a bit of defiance.
It’s clear that Cruz Beckham has his sights set on a career in music, but it remains to be seen how he’ll navigate the complexities of his famous family’s legacy while proving his individual talent. His recent comments, while controversial, are just one example of the challenges he will continue to face as he moves forward in his professional and personal life. The world will be watching, but whether or not Cruz can shake off the "nepo baby" label is something only time will tell.
