Cruz Beckham’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel has shared a shocking photo of her post-surgery scar on Sunday as she revealed three months ago she had to relearn how to walk after a mystery ordeal.
The songwriter, 29 – who is 10 years older than Cruz, 19 – took to her Instagram Story as she posted a picture of an extensive scar down the centre of her back.
While Jackie didn’t reveal the details of her surgery she revealed that earlier this year the debilitating surgery meant she could barely stand.
Reflecting on her recovery she penned: ‘Random thought. Wild to think 3 months ago I was relearning to walk and couldn’t get up.
‘Physically and mentally I had a hard time, took forever to be ok with myself again especially work and writing wise.’

Jackie then added: ‘Also, check in on ur friends. Sending everyone health hugs and love!’
MailOnline have contacted the Beckham’s representatives for comment.
Since her operation and recovery Jackie has been putting on a loved up display with Cruz who is a decade younger than the star.
The pair looked absolutely smitten over the weekend as he twirled her around during a stroll in Miami, before driving her to the airport – where the duo shared a goodbye kiss.
The couple are believed to have been dating since June, and she joined him last month to support Victoria at her Paris Fashion Week show.
Following the catwalk presentation, she took to Instagram to gush: ‘the most beautiful show and the most beautiful dress. Congratulations @victoriabeckham’.

Jackie and Victoria appear to be getting on well, with the Brazilian showing a remarkable resemblance to the Spice Girl on numerous occasions.
Sporting similar looks, hairstyles, and dresses it seems Victoria could be one of Jackie’s style icons.
And it looks like Victoria herself has given Jackie her stamp of approval after the singer recently posed for a mirror photo on Instagram in a sexy, black lace dress that was seemingly given to her by Victoria.
‘Hot sauce and hotter outfits. thank u for the laciest dream piece @victoriabeckham,’ Apostel wrote in the caption of the Instagram post.
She also included a few other snaps of herself in the stunning, curve-hugging, cut-out outfit in the post, showing herself laughing and smiling while sitting outdoors.
The dress doesn’t currently seem to be available as a part of Victoria Beckham’s clothing collection, so it appears that Beckham may have picked it out just for Apostel.
