May 10 2023, Updated 10:21 a.m. ET
It was no surprise when New York Yankees star Derek Jeter was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2020 after “3,465 hits, 1,923 runs scored, and 4,921 total bases.”
The legendary shortstop’s time-honored career spanned two decades and hasn’t slowed since retirement.
But that’s not the only thing he has going on. Along with launching his own website, The Players Tribune, Derek was also the CEO of the Miami Marlins baseball team until he stepped down in 2022.
Also, as a proud father of four with his wife, Hannah Jeter (née Davis), Derek’s personal life is thriving. Read on for details!
Who is Derek Jeter’s wife? The former MLB player tied the knot with Hannah Jeter in 2016.
In 2012, the former New York Yankees legend met his now-wife, Hannah Jeter, through mutual friends. Before the duo started dating, Derek was in a four-year relationship with Minka Kelly.
Interestingly, Hannah had never heard of the MLB star before their whirlwind romance began.
Derek and Hannah became engaged in November 2015, three years after they met. Less than one year later, on Jul. 9, 2016, the model and former shortstop tied the knot in St. Helena, Calif. at the Meadowood Napa Valley resort.
"They are extremely excited and in love!" a source told E! News at the time. "They can't wait to spend their lives together."
Do Derek and Hannah Jeter have any kids?
In February 2017, Derek and his wife, Hannah, revealed that they were expecting their first child together! Hannah shared that she and her husband were welcoming a daughter in an essay for The Players’ Tribune.
“They're going to be born into such an extraordinary situation. They're going to have to be some strong little people,” she wrote of her hopes for their future children.
"We don't want them to be defined by their dad's name — for them, we want him to just be 'Dad,'” Hannah continued. “That will be the piece of him they'll have that the rest of the world doesn't. It will be special, and it will be theirs."
Since then, Derek and Hannah have welcomed two more daughters and a son. They are now proud parents to Story Grey Jeter (2019) Bella Raine Jeter (2017), River Rose Jeter (2021), and Kaius Green (2023).
Following the announcement of his baby boy, Derek changed his Instagram bio to read "sleep-deprived father of four."
What does Hannah Jeter do for a living?
Derek isn’t the only widely-known individual in his marriage. His wife Hannah is an acclaimed American model, best known for gracing the 2015 cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.
Hailing from St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Hannah’s background exudes glitz and glamor. Her professional career has been extensive, from modeling for Ralph Lauren to Victoria’s Secret to Tommy Hilfiger. In the past, she’s graced the covers of Sports Illustrated, ELLE México, FHM, D, and more.
Aside from modeling, Hannah has also worked as a television host. From 2015 to 2017, she hosted Project Runway: Junior. She has also starred in television advertisements.
Right now, however, it seems like she and Derek are enjoying their primary full-time jobs: parents!
