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 The interview has since been removed from Upper Echelon Academy's website, but an archived version is still available online.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.

Tom Daley Gets Candid On Fame, Fatherhood And His Closeted Past In New Documentary
As a young diver, Tom Daley never imagined he'd one day feel confident enough to share specifics of his personal life with fans. That changed in 2013, when the British Olympic diver came out as gay in a YouTube video. Twelve years later, Daley gets even more candid in a new documentary, 'Tom Daley: 1.6 Seconds.' Released this month on Discovery+ and in the U.S. and on HBO Max elsewhere, the film finds the now-retired athlete reflecting on his rise to fame, his path toward living as his true self and his relationships with his husband of eight years, screenwriter and filmmaker Dustin Lance Black, and his late father, Robert Daley. 'It's weird when somebody comes to you and says, 'We want to make a documentary about your life.' I was a little bit hesitant to start with, because ... what do I even have to say? What do I want to say?' Daley told HuffPost in an interview. 'But the more I got into what was going on beneath the surface when I was growing up ... the fact that my kids are going to be able to understand a bit more about what their papa did ... it felt like therapy.' Admirers of Daley's aquatic prowess won't be disappointed by '1.6 Seconds,' the title of which alludes to his gold medal win in the men's synchronized 10-meter platform at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, held in 2021. While working on the film, director Vaughan Sivell pored through hours of archival footage showing Daley training for childhood competitions and, later, his four Olympic Games. In fact, Daley himself hadn't watched many of the videos before he sat down to provide his on-camera commentary. He can be seen tearing up after some particularly emotional clips, some of which include his father, who died of cancer in 2011 at age 40. 'If I could be half the dad my dad was to me, I feel like my life would be complete,' Daley said. 'My middle name is Robert, named after my dad. My oldest son is also a Robert ― we call him Robbie. The relationship I had with my dad is how I model being a father now.' Other emotional moments in the film include the lead-up to Daley's coming out as well as the early days of his relationship with Black, whom he refers to simply as 'Lance.' In addition to 6-year-old Robbie, Black and Daley share a 1-year-old son, Phoenix. 'When I came out, I had no idea what was going to happen on the other side of it,' Daley said. 'I was told I was going to lose sponsorships and not be able to compete in certain countries. There was a lot of fear around it [and] I didn't think I'd be able to open myself up to falling in love beyond a surface level. But when I met Lance, it felt like I'd met my forever teammate.' Black recently completed work on a documentary of his own, 'Rock Out,' which examines the LGBTQ+ community's unheralded influence on heavy metal, punk and rock music. Daley, meanwhile, has shifted his professional focus. As seen in '1.6 Seconds,' he famously took up knitting and crocheting in 2020, and has since launched the Made With Love brand dedicated to his handiwork. He continues to tout knitting as his 'superpower' and a 'mental reset,' and will further showcase his skills as the host of 'The Game of Wool,' a forthcoming television series. Sports and knitting both factor into Daley's newfound role as a mental health advocate. At the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, he was granted a re-dive after getting distracted by a large number of camera flashes from the crowd ― a chilling moment captured in '1.6 Seconds' that impacted his own mental health. 'We spend all of our life training our bodies to be able to do the thing,' he said. 'But if you don't train your brain as well, how do you know if you're going to be able to hold it together in competition? On a micro or macro level, at some point, everybody deals with a really stressful situation, and how you navigate that and perform under stress and under pressure really will play into how successful that moment might be. So I think for me, I wish I'd started those mindfulness practices slightly earlier in my career.' These days, his routine also includes 'going on walks with my husband. We drop our kids off at school, and then we go for a hike, and we just spend the first hour of our morning just talking to each other. And I know that might not necessarily be 100% mindfulness, but it's our way of talking to each other about anything and everything.' This Glam-Pop Singer Has Been Called 'Gen Z's Elton John.'

The Second Phase of the Grand Palais's Reopening Is Complete—Here's What You Can Expect
When Chanel returned to the Grand Palais for its runway show last October, there was the collective feeling that the house had come home after four years displaced. But the re-opening of the building's soaring, glass-ceilinged nave, timed to the Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games, marked only the first of two major phases of the Grand Palais's monumental restoration. As of this week, the second phase is complete enough that visitors will now arrive via the main entrance on the refurbished Square Jean Perrin, where allegorical statues adorning a fountain are gleaming white. Once inside, they will behold the splendor of the building—both its original architecture and reimagined spaces—like never before. Led by Chatillon Architectes, the project is particularly remarkable for the fact that it involved no additional building. Yet there is a vast amount of new, usable space—or, at least, space that the public is able to experience for the first time. Beyond the entrance is a 3,000-square-meter area where people can wander freely (and for free)—one that has not existed since the building was divided into three sections in 1937. Here, luminous panels running the length of the ceiling create an almost futuristic feel amidst the circa-1900 riveted steel beams painted reseda green, a shade as signature to the Grand Palais as orange is to Hermès. There is a cafeteria on the mezzanine, a modular boutique, and seating staggered throughout—all of the fixtures and furniture realized by L'Atelier Senzu, known for its ecological approach to design. The main attraction, however, is a view of the nave through three floor-to-ceiling windows. It is framed by an enormous curtain of nine suspended panels in gradient green, conceived under the direction of Studio MTX (one of the 12 houses within Chanel's artisanal network, Le19M) with additional decorative elements from six other ateliers. Conveniently and cleverly, the curtain will remain closed when Chanel is preparing for its shows. The Grand Palais was onceived by a collective of architects—Henri Deglane, Louis-Albert Louvet, Albert-Félix-Théophile Thomas, and Charles Giraud—as a stage for French patrimony and culture when Paris hosted the Universal Exhibition in 1900. It also encompassed the Palais d'Antin, which later became the Palais de la découverte, a kind of science discovery museum that remained open, albeit tired, until the renovations began in 2021.

We're Living in the Golden Age of Men's Shorts
In 2011, Tom Ford proclaimed that 'a man should never wear shorts in the city.' With all due respect to the supremely suave designer, those days are long gone. It's been two years since Pedro Pascal broke one of fashion's last commandments at the Met Gala, wearing above-the-knee shorts with boots and a red Valentino coat. Aussie Jacob Elordi—all 6 feet, 5 inches of him—followed suit at the brand's spring 2024 runway show, pairing thigh-baring shorts with a tie and leather blazer. Fashion risk-takers Chris Pine, Colman Domingo and Pharrell Williams have since worn them on the red carpet. Off duty, Paul Mescal and Donald Glover often go viral on social media with shorts that can only be described as skimpy.
