Cruz Beckham’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel poses topless to show off scar as she marks two years since extensive spinal surgery

Cruz Beckham’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel told fans to embrace their scars as she posed topless to mark two years since she had extensive spinal surgery.

The Brazilian songwriter, 30, suffers from scoliosis where the spine twists and curves – and underwent an extensive operation to stabilise her backbone.

Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Jackie turned with her back to the camera to show her scar two years on and wrote: ‘Your scars are sexy.’ 

Jackie posed in a pair of Good American high-waisted jeans and wore her hair in a chignon. 

Jackie captioned the post: ‘2 years ago today I had my full spinal fusion. never ever felt better and we love a cute scar. just a lil wear & tear.[sic]’ 

The musician shared the post while in Miami with the Beckham clan. She was seen at Inter Miami stadium on Friday night with Victoria, David, Cruz, 21, and Romeo.

Spinal fusion is a surgical procedure that joins two or more vertebrae in the spine to reduce pain, correct problems, and make the spine more stable.

During the procedure, the surgeon places a bone graft in the space between the vertebrae to prevent excessive movement.

The bone graft can come from the patient’s own body, a donor, or a synthetic material. The surgeon may also use screws and rods to secure the bones.

Last year, Jackie detailed the procedure and praised Cruz and her loved ones for helping her through the ‘crazy psychological fear’ she felt while on medication. 

She began her lengthy post: ‘1 year ago today I had my scoliosis surgery so we’re celebrating with a big dress and an ai painting . sitting here reflecting a little bit and weirdly I went into this day last year with zero fear. [sic]’ 

Jackie continued: ‘I fully pranked my mind into thinking it was no big deal. The 2 weeks after that were absolute hell but I think what really kept me going was having something to go back to.

‘I was determined to be back in the studio no more than 1 month to the day post op. 25 days later we were back. 

‘I would have never ever made it through those 2 weeks if I wasn’t surrounded by so much support and love. 

‘People go through far worse than this every day and in times where you’re physically and mentally weak you really realize what a crazy difference conversation and comfort can have on you. 

Among the images was an X-ray of her spine before and after surgery

Jackie had to relearn how to walk after the spinal surgery  

‘Having someone check on you all the time, help you, love you. A year later, most days I forget I even did it. There’s days where I feel weird in my body, but everyone does. 

‘I look a little crazy putting on shoes and getting out of cars and can’t do long high heel nights, except that, slaying.

‘Long story short, always have people around you that will really be there. [sic]’ 

Jackie went on to praise her loved ones for rallying around her, explaining: ‘The hardest part of the surgery and recovery was weirdly the mental side. 

‘For weeks later I would call people crying because I was worried I wouldn’t be able to be as productive or idk some crazy psychological fear because the medication makes u weird and sensitive especially if you’re already anxious etc. [sic]’ 

Offering advice to anyone going through a similar situation, she concluded: ‘So 1 surround yourself with love, with friendship, with genuine care. 

‘2. Have something to go back to. To look forward to. From whatever it is you’re going through. 

‘Those are my 2 humble thoughts of the day ☺️ and check in on your people always. it could be making the biggest difference and you don’t even know [sic].’
