Katie Feeney became a verified star while in a relationship with her childhood friend Sean Yamada, but their relationship eventually fizzled out due to distance. Around 2022, Feeney started posting TikTok videos and social media posts without Yamada. Feeney confirmed the split in a YouTube shorts Q&A in February that year. The influencer found a shoulder to cry on, however, and moved on with MLB player Jack Hurley in May 2022.
The same year, the content creator posed with Hurley on Instagram after his Virginia Tech Hokies won the ACC Championship that year. “Hey ACC champ,” she captioned the picture that featured the two love birds hugged up and smiling.
After playing for Virginia Tech, Hurley was drafted by the MLB in 2023. Feeney commented on an Instagram post announcing the news at the time, writing, “They got the best,” alongside a heart emoji. Hurley played for the Arizona Diamondbacks for only a week, however, before he was moved to the minor leagues for the 2023 season. Hurley played for the Visalia Rawhide and Hillsboro Hops, prepping for another try at the MLB draft in 2024.
The center fielder has been making trips to see his girlfriend while pursuing his MLB career, and Feeney posted a photo of them together at a Penn State game. “Adventures with you,” she captioned the Instagram snap in 2023.
