Not super connected to the baseball scene, Hannah Jeter admits that she wasn’t familiar with Derek Jeter when they first met through a friend. “I thought he was a pitcher. I know it sounds strange that I didn’t know he was a shortstop. I can just imagine all of the New Yorkers reading this right now thinking, ‘Oh, come aawwnn.’ They probably don’t believe me. You probably don’t believe me. But it’s true,” she wrote in a guest post for The Players’ Tribune. She went on to say that she thought that Derek Jeter was “the nicest guy” and she chose to get the know him on a personal level. “We met at the right time. To me, what matters in a relationship is being at the same place in your lives. And right from the start, I could tell that the timing of Derek’s life and mine were aligned,” Hannah wrote.

Although Derek was never one to flaunt his romances, his relationship with Hannah seemed different from the start — and fans noticed. Derek seemed smitten with the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model. And, in 2015, he casually referred to Hannah as his fiancee in a blog post he wrote for The Players’ Tribune. Their wedding was up next. According to People, Derek and Hannah exchanged vows at Meadowood Napa Valley Resort in St. Helena, California in July 2016.
