From supermodel Giselle Bündchen and actress Gabrielle Union to high school sweetheart Brittany Matthews and TV host Melanie Collins, these wives and girlfriends have captured the hearts of athletes from all different playing fields.
Dustin Johnson and Paulina Gretzky
Many people will recognize the last name of Paulina Gretzky. Her father is one of the greatest hockey players of all time and the man who allowed professional golfer Dustin Johnson to ask his daughter’s hand in marriage.
While Gretzky didn’t take to the ice like her father, she found her footing in modeling and singing.
Dwayne Wade and Gabrielle Union
Actress Gabrielle Union is no stranger to the spotlight. So after meeting former Miami Heat shooting guard Dwyane Wade at a Super Bowl party in 2009, the two decided to keep their relationship to themselves (for two years!).
As of 2014, Union and Wade are happily married. The best part is that Wade is very supportive of Union’s career, joining her for more than one red carpet appearance to promote her various projects.
Lionel Messi and Antonella Roccuzzo
Antonella Roccuzzo and professional soccer player Lionel Messi have known each other since they were five years old. Childhood sweethearts, the couple fell in love and got married in 2017. As of 2022, they have three sons together.
Roccuzzo’s story is interesting, as she went to university to study dentistry before switching over to social communications. As of 2016, she has a modeling contract with the Argentine fashion label Ricky Sarkany. Talk about a shift in career paths!
Derek Jeter and Hannah Jeter
Hannah Jeter might be the wife of former New York Yankee shortstop Derek Jeter, but the gorgeous lady is known for more than her 2016 marriage in Napa Valley. In 2015, Hannah was featured on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition cover.
She also hosted Project Runway: Junior for three years, from 2015 until 2017.
A.J. McCaroon and Katherine Webb
After dating NFL quarterback A.J. McCarron, Katherine Webb hit the jackpot and married him in 2014. A former beauty pageant contestant, Webb was corned Miss Alabama in 2012 before making it to the Top 10 of the Miss USA competition that same year.
When she’s not cheering on her star husband, Webb is a devout mother, taking care of their three children.
Andy Roddick and Brooklyn Decker
Brooklyn Decker has made quite a career for herself aside from being married to former professional tennis player Andy Roddick since 2009. She is not only a model, having appeared in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, but she also made her way to the silver screen.
Decker has appeared in movies such as Battleship and Just Go With It and TV shows, including Ugly Betty and The League.
Wes Welker and Anna Burns
In 2012, Anna Burns married former NFL wide receiver Wes Welker, known for playing on the San Diego Chargers, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, Denver Broncos, and St. Louis Rams.
Burns is a former swimsuit model and Miss Hooter pageant winner, securing the crown for the competition back in 2005.
