Who is Bruce Springsteen’s daughter?
On December 30, 1991, in Los Angeles, Jessica Rae Springsteen was born where Springsteen & Scialfa once lived before turning to their New Jersey roots to upbring their kids in the Garden State; especially, they relocated to a horse farm found in the aptly named New Jersey township of Colts Neck (right under the road from the town of Freehold where father Bruce grew up).
Growing up on a horse ranch, Jessica began her equestrian journey at the full, old age of 4!
“I always had to ride to focus on and have something a slight bit for myself,” Jessica earlier told CNN about how horses assisted her to have a more grounded childhood. “I think that helped me grow and become who I am now. And it taught me to work vigorously and to commit myself to something.”
She proceeded to train while tending Duke University in North Carolina. In addition to riding, she’s served as a model and in 2014, she was designated an ambassador for Gucci, with an exceptional riding collection designed by Gucci artistic director Frida Giannini in her honor.
“Riding in the collection that Frida has designed for me is an honor & great fun – it combines the best of sport & style,” Springsteen told Vogue at the time, while Giannini continued, “Jessica brings the beautiful, dynamic spirit of Gucci alive, & I have guaranteed that the design of this new wardrobe presents her with pieces that guide to be both technically correct & stylish.”
Did Jessica Springsteen make the Olympic team?
Jessica fell just short of making Team USA in 2016 & getting to go to Rio, but now she’s able to head to Tokyo—furthermore could come home with some valued hardware!
“Springsteen has a vast chance at a medal: The United States won a side gold in 2004 & 2008 7 silver in 2016,” The New York Times published this week. Individually, Springsteen is currently rated 27th in the world & has already won various major competitions, plus a 2016 Grand Prix win in Saugerties, New York.
How old is Jessica Springsteen?
The chances of a top-notch profession look even better for Springsteen, considering how young she is for her competition! She’s currently 29 years old, while her colleague show jumpers on Team USA—Kent Farrington, Laura Kraut & McLain Ward—are all in their 40s & 50s.
Is Jessica Springsteen married?
By all reports, Jessica is still unattached. Her last long-term passion was apparently with different athlete-slash-model, polo pro-Nic Roldan. The two kept their involvement on the down-low, although seldom, Roldan—who was born in Argentina but is presently considered one of America’s best polo pros—made appearances on Springsteen’s social media.
Who is Bruce Springsteen married to?
Springsteen & Scialfa both brought up as true-blue Jersey kids; she even finished from Asbury Park High School, the very town that gave Springsteen’s Greetings From Asbury Park record its name. They met each other at an Asbury Park bar in the mid-01980s, and in 1984, he asked her to accompany his E Street Band. Soon after Springsteen departed from his first wife, former actress Julianne Phillips, in 1988, he & Scialfa fell in love and walked in together. They welcomed more adult son Evan James Springsteen in mid-1990 while living in L.A. & got married in 1991, with daughter Jessica arriving next that year. Son Samuel Ryan Springsteen (who’s presently a Jersey City firefighter!) was born in 1994, & soon after, the Springsteen-Scialfa clan moved to New Jersey to live a extra low-key
