Meet Steve Jobs' youngest daughter, Eve Jobs, an equestrian and model making a name for herself outside Silicon Valley
Eve Jobs, the youngest child of Steve Jobs and Laurene Powell-Jobs, was born in 1998.
Jobs, 26, has three older siblings named Reed, Erin, and Lisa.
She was 13 when their father died in October 2011.
In high school, Jobs balanced equestrian sports in Florida with applying to colleges and attending high school in California.
Jobs said her school allowed her to make up for missed classes through Upper Echelon Academy, a tutoring program based in Wellington, Florida.
"It took me a long time to figure out how to balance friends, school, and riding, but through the years I figured out the best way to make it all work is to prioritize what is most important to you," Jobs said in a 2016 interview with Upper Echelon Academy. The interview has since been removed from Upper Echelon Academy's website, but an archived version is still available online.
Jobs graduated from Stanford University in 2021, the same school where her parents met.
Jobs is an accomplished equestrian who once hoped to compete in the Olympics.
In 2016, Jobs' mother bought a $15 million ranch in Wellington, Florida, where she frequently competed and trained with Missy Clark.
The Daily Mail reported that the ranch included a barn big enough for 20 horses and a show-jumping training rink. Jobs also bought a stallion named Chill RZ in 2016.
Jobs told World of Showjumping in 2020 that competing in the Olympics and the World Equestrian Games "would be a dream." After the Tokyo Olympics were postponed due to COVID-19, she decided to pursue other avenues.
"I had done everything I wanted to achieve in the sport, and I just felt at peace," she told Vanity Fair in 2022.
In May, she returned to the sport to compete in the Royal Windsor Horse Show.
"So grateful to be back jumping at this level," she wrote on Instagram.
Jobs isn't the only famous heiress to take up equestrian sports. Other famous show jumpers include Michael Bloomberg's daughter Georgina, Bill Gates' daughter Jennifer, Bruce Springsteen's daughter Jessica, and Steven Spielberg's daughter Destry.
Jobs now works as a model represented by DNA Model Management.
Jobs made her modeling debut in 2020 in a Glossier ad campaign alongside "Euphoria" star Sydney Sweeney and "RuPaul's Drag Race" finalist Naomi Smalls.
She signed with DNA Model Management in 2022, which also represents stars such as Kaia Gerber and Emily Ratajkowski.
She has also been a regular guest at Paris Fashion Week since 2022.
She makes occasional appearances at red-carpet events such as the Met Gala and the Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
Jobs walked the Met Gala 's red carpet in 2022 wearing a Louis Vuitton gown and posed for photos at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in 2022 and 2023.
She also attended the WSJ Magazine 2023 Innovator Awards and the 2023 TIME100 Gala.
Jobs is reportedly engaged to Harry Charles, a British equestrian who won a gold medal at the Paris Olympics.
While Jobs has pursued career paths outside tech, she has occasionally weighed in on Apple product launches.
In the biography "Steve Jobs," Walter Isaacson describes Eve Jobs as growing up to become "a strong-willed, funny firecracker" who knew how to take on her famous father.
Isaacson wrote in the 2011 biography that Jobs would even call her father's assistant at work to ensure that she was "put on his calendar."
When it comes to the future, Isaacson wrote that Steve Jobs joked that he could envision her running Apple or becoming president of the United States.
"She's a pistol and has the strongest will of any kid I've ever met," her father told Isaacson.

A$AP Rocky's AWGE SS26 Returns to Paris in "Obligatory Fashion"
Summary It was a big week forA$AP Rockyas he returned to Paris to present his second collection forAWGE. Following a surprise appearance atJonathan Anderson's debut Dior show, Rocky capped off his fashion week with the unveiling of the collection titled 'Obligatory Fashion,' that appeared to be set to new tracks off of Rocky's highly-anticipated new album. The show served as a compelling commentary on how necessity breeds trends, how once-stigmatized 'ghetto' styles now define luxury, and how institutional dress evolves into cultural iconography. As guests entered the show, they were greeted by masked uniform men, resembling SWAT individuals. Guests had to go through set of metal detectors which also lined the runway. Drawing from his own court house experience of his most recent public trial, the collection and set was a comment on the powerful alchemy that converts items born from practicality or social circumstance into symbols of aspirational style. This narrative unfolded through garments that challenged perceptions, blurring lines between what's considered foundational and what's deemed cutting-edge. On the runway, Rocky offered tantalizing glimpses of his forthcoming PUMA footwear collaboration, featuring the striking Mostro Gabbia and a distressed interpretation of the classic Speedcat. Further elevating the footwear, Christian Louboutin lent select silhouettes, which were then customized with bespoke AWGE charms by Pavē Niteō. Pavē Niteō, fresh from their diamond-encrusted Ray-Ban debut at the Met Gala, also supplied Rocky's personal jewelry for the evening, reinforcing the collection's high-wattage appeal. The collection was quintessentially Rocky, showcasing varying sides of the the multi-hyphenate musician. Taking inspiration from the suits he wore to the court and his everyday garb that consists of oversized bomber jackets and untucked gingham button-downs, the collection hinged on wearability for numerous occasions. From double-breasted cream and vibrant green suits to multi-layered boxers under low-riding chinos, the collection touches upon every facet of Rocky's fashion wardrobe. Explicit and implicit statements were made, including wearable bullet-proof vests and jerseys that read, 'Not Guilt, Stop Snitchin.' A family affair, front row saw the likes of Rihanna, their son, A$AP Nast and more support Rocky on his second show.

How Olympic Diver Cassidy Krug Learned To Let Go—And Start Over
Former Olympic diver Cassidy Krug shares tips for going through life changes with grace in her new ... More book. From fashion icon Vera Wang's early days as a competitive figure skater to New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's past life as the rapper Mr. Cardamom, there's no shortage of stories about youthful passions giving way to bold new careers. However, riding out that in-between time can be tough for anyone craving forward momentum—especially when faced with professional setbacks like the shock of sudden unemployment, stalled advancement due to family leave or even the disappointment of a dream job that's less fulfilling than expected. In her new book Resurface: A Guide to Navigating Life's Biggest Transitions, former Olympic diver Cassidy Krug explores these topics and more through dozens of interviews that illuminate the many ways people process major life change. Using her own journey as a backdrop, Krug takes readers from the peak of her diving career at the 2012 London Olympics to the breaking point that led to her walking away from her full-time job in New York City as a brand strategist. While Krug's family and coach primed her to think about career prospects post-diving, which helped her mentally prepare to move on after the Olympics, the realities of working in corporate America proved to be a different type of heavy lift that became more pronounced as time went on. 'I had thought that the more I put into my work, the more work would give back to me in the same way that diving did,' Krug shares over Zoom. 'I was saying no to my friends. I was saying no to my family. I didn't feel like I was getting as much back as I had hoped.' This realization eventually wore down Krug despite having all the trappings of success, including a plum assignment with a dream client that involved leading a clever, resourceful team. After seven years of grinding away in pursuit of her next promotion, Krug asked for a much-needed sabbatical to allow herself to take a beat, planting the seeds for what would eventually become a good reason why career shifts that shake our sense of identity inspire introspection and soul searching: When something we've worked at for so long has defined who we are and how we spend our time, the specter of failure raises deeper questions about purpose, direction and self-worth. For publishing veteran Susan McCulloch of West Orange, New Jersey, experiencing an unceremonious layoff after more than two decades of service that included years of commuting, missed family milestones and stepping up during restructurings and the upheaval of Covid-19 felt especially disillusioning. 'After 22 years of contributing to my last company, embracing every unasked-for role, building community and serving the bottom line, I was laid off without a single kind word,' McCulloch recalls. 'That hurt.' Global retail strategist Lisa R. Bannister, founder of the Missouri Rowe Collective in New York City, came up against similarly disappointing news two years ago. In her case, Bannister found out her role at a leading fashion and lifestyle brand would be ending due to corporate restructuring after a career-defining 19-year run that included seven years abroad in Hong Kong and leadership roles spanning multiple continents. 'The thought of idle hands or a restless mind was unbearable to me,' Bannister says. 'In transition, there are so many unknowns.' Dallas-based AI marketing professional Leah Wright agrees with this sentiment. For her, career disruption came not from a layoff, but from a cross-country move prompted by her spouse's line of work. Last year, Wright resigned from a position she loved with a team she thrived with, a decision that left her feeling both disappointed and apprehensive about the changes ahead. 'It was also exciting,' Wright explains, 'because of the possibilities of what can come next.'Krug says she learned to make room "for multiple things that matter" during her transition. For Krug, transitioning enabled her to explore possibilities that have given her life new purpose. Now based in Los Angeles, she divides her time between writing, working on freelance brand strategy projects and teaching trapeze while also balancing family time with her husband and their 2-year-old daughter. Since leaving her full-time position five years ago, Krug says she has 'expanded and made room for multiple things that matter,' a move that has brought more fulfillment, joy and connection to her life. In Resurface, Krug outlines key takeaways and provides exercises for making progress while navigating the unknown. Highlights from the book include:Krug's book includes exercises at the end of each chapter to help with processing major life ... More transitions. These days, McCulloch stays grounded through her love of reading and expressing gratitude for her network. She's embracing the murk by redirecting the energy and care that she poured into her former employer to herself, allowing her the space to recharge. Her to-do list now includes 'having this time to breathe, to sleep a little later, to take a day off and not feel like I'm playing hooky, to schedule lunches without watching the clock until my next meeting, to take my son on college visits midweek.' It's a welcome change of pace that's changed her mindset and helped with connecting her dots, opening her up to considering work with nonprofits and educational organizations where she can apply the community-minded leadership skills she honed working for Big Five publishers. 'The world feels like my oyster again,' she says. For Bannister, asking for help and building community came naturally through her regular practice of reflection and faith. In addition to immediately pivoting to create her consultancy, Bannister also reached out to her alma mater to explore teaching opportunities. 'Since returning from Hong Kong, I've remained actively involved with the school—mentoring students, participating in panel discussions and organizing field trips. Teaching felt like a natural next step,' she says, viewing it as a meaningful way to give back to the next generation. 'Not only do I have the opportunity to help students shape their career paths, but their energy and curiosity continuously offer me fresh perspectives. I find myself constantly learning,' she says, citing the ongoing exchange as inspiration for expanding her consulting business. As for Wright, upskilling has been her go-to work during transitions, whether it's earning new certifications, going through media training or brushing up on Excel shortcuts. 'Be open to possibilities and just stay adaptable,' Wright advises, 'and celebrate the wins.' In Wright's case, that includes being able to support her family during the move and helping her teenage daughter get settled into her routines—an achievement that resonates with Krug's message about making space for more things that matter. 'Know that transitions are an opportunity to expand your heart past its former boundaries,' she writes. 'There's always something to grieve and something to gain.'

Rihanna Wears Sheer Blue Chanel Gown to ‘The Smurfs' World Premiere
THE RUNDOWN On Saturday, Rihanna attended the world premiere of Smurfs in Brussels wearing a custom Chanel ensemble in baby blue. Rihanna voices the character of Smurfette in the new animated movie. Her chiffon top was constructed with layers of sheer fabric that swung lightly over her torso—she and her partner, A$AP Rocky, revealed they were expecting their third child at the Met Gala in May this year. Under the top, which was hung with dangling crystals and feathers, she wore a long silk skirt in the same delicate shade with embroidery along the hem. She had her hair half up and wore several pieces of delicate jewelry around her neck and wrists. By her side, A$AP Rocky was wearing a striped red-and-white button-down shirt and a red and blue tie. He was wearing wide-legged slacks and a pair of dark sunglasses. Both stars have been in Paris the last few days, first making an appearance at a show for the Dior menswear collection. Rihanna wore an embroidered cape-style coat over a mint green vest and button-down, while the rapper wore a brightly striped Dior tie. They then appeared at Rocky's show for AWGE as part of Paris Fashion Week. They were joined by their son, Riot Rose, making his fashion show debut. Rihanna was wearing a loose button-down shirt in a blue and red stripe pattern that opened over her belly, paired it with a pleated black miniskirt. She accessorized with white pointed-toe heels with criss-crossed laces over tall gray socks. She left her long hair down in gentle waves and wore a number of different chains and pendants of different lengths. Riot was also styled for the night, wearing purple pants, Vans, and a cute denim jacket over a white T-shirt.
