The second child of rock legend Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa, a member of his E Street Band, Jessica Rae Springsteen found her path to stardom in equestrian sports.
She had her first riding lessons at five and soon had a pony of her own. The youngster spent countless hours practising on Stone Hill Farm, the Springsteen family's estate in Colts Neck, New Jersey.
After collecting several age-group prizes, she won a ride-off to take victory at the 2008 ASPCA Maclay Finals before taking the WEF Excellence in Equitation Championship a year later.
In 2010, she won individual bronze and team silver at the FEI North American Youth Championships before
The Los Angeles native quickly became one of the best riders in the United States. She earned a spot on the U.S. Jumping Team, and in March 2021, she and her horse, Don Juan van de Donkhoeve, secured victory at the FEI Jumping Nations Cup Wellington CSIO4.
Jessica's career reached its peak at Tokyo 2020 in 2021, when she contributed to the team's silver medal win in the equestrian team jumping final.
