Vanessa Hudgens and husband Cole Tucker<\/h2>\n

The High School Musical<\/em> star, 35, may have another baseball player on her hands when she gives birth to her first baby<\/a> with the professional baseball shortstop and outfielder, 27. Three months after she and Tucker tied the knot<\/a> during a beachside wedding in Tulum in December 2023, the singer and actress debuted her baby bump on the Oscars red carpet in March. \u201cOscars 2024!\u201d she captioned several Instagram photos<\/a> from the evening. \u201cOne for the books.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Princess Switch<\/em> star has been linked to the former Pittsburgh Pirates player since late 2020 and went Instagram official with their relationship in February 2021. \u201cHe\u2019s just kind of perfect for me,\u201d Hudgens told Entertainment Tonight<\/em><\/a> in April of that year. \u201cI am [happy]. I really am. I think that it\u2019s also so important to stay grateful for everything that you have in life. I\u2019ve been making that a priority, and I feel like it\u2019s just been making magic happen all the more.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Kate Upton and husband Justin Verlander<\/h2>\n

The Houston Astros pitcher had two major wins in 2017. Just days after the baseball pro<\/a>, 41, came out on top of the World Series in a matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers, he and the 31-year-old model tied the knot at a medieval church in Tuscany, Italy.<\/p>\n

Upton met the baseball star in 2012, and after a few years of dating, they were engaged in 2016. The couple welcomed their daughter, Genevieve \u201cVivi\u201d Upton Verlander, in 2018 \u2014 and Verlander has said that his little girl keeps him motivated to stay in shape and perform at his very best. \u201cI would like to be able to play long enough that my daughter can see me and remember me playing baseball when she grows older,\u201d he told People<\/em><\/a> in 2019. \u201cMaybe if anything, it\u2019s going to push me to stay in shape and stay healthy, and be a good pitcher as long as I possibly can. I want her to be able to remember me on the field.\u201d Last Father\u2019s Day, Upton celebrated her husband with a sweet Instagram post<\/a>, writing, \u201cI love watching you be the most incredible #GirlDad\u2026 Vivi and I are so lucky to have you @justinverlander. \u2764\ufe0f.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Misty May-Treanor and husband Matt Treanor<\/h2>\n

No matter which parent they take after, it wouldn\u2019t be a surprise if all three Treanor children became athletes. The former pro baseball catcher, who retired from the sport in May 2014, met the volleyball star at a sports therapy facility in California in late 2003 \u2014 and both are extremely talented in their respective sports. Misty is a three-time Olympic gold medalist<\/a> and was inducted into the Volleyball Hall of Fame in 2016 while her husband has played for numerous professional teams, including the Florida Marlins, Detroit Tigers, Texas Rangers, Kansas City Royals and Los Angeles Dodgers.<\/p>\n

Though they\u2019re both retired, Matt, 48, has gushed over his 46-year-old wife\u2019s celebrity status. \u201cIn California it\u2019s ridiculous. She gets stopped all the time,\u201d he previously told Sports Illustrated<\/em><\/a>. \u201cEven on our honeymoon in Tahiti, we were trying to rent Jet Skis and you could hear people on the dock saying in broken English, \u2018Olympic volleyball\u2019 and pointing to her. Then they started chanting her name. It\u2019s wild.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Jamie-Lynn Sigler and husband Cutter Dykstra<\/h2>\n

After eight years of marriage, the Sopranos<\/em> star, 42, still calls the former Washington Nationals baseman her \u201cfavorite.\u201d In celebration of his 34th birthday last June, Sigler shared a sweet photo of the pair on Instagram<\/a>, writing, \u201cYou\u2019re just the best. I posted this for you on your bday with one hour left in the day to spare you any birthday texts because you don\u2019t love attention, even though you deserve it all. You\u2019re my favorite person and you don\u2019t have an instagram so you need my phone to see this. I love you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The pair tied the knot in a candlelit wedding in 2016 and share two children, sons Beau and Jack. These days, Sigler \u2014 who lives with Multiple Sclerosis after being diagnosed with the autoimmune disease when she was 20 years old \u2014 said she often leans on Dykstra for support. \u201cI don\u2019t know if there\u2019s enough ways that I can describe my gratitude for him,\u201d she told People<\/em><\/a> last year of her husband. \u201cHe\u2019s made himself available to me in every way that I\u2019ve needed support.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hannah Jeter and husband Derek Jeter<\/h2>\n

One of the greatest shortstops of all time, the former New York Yankees player quietly started dating the Sports Illustrated<\/em> model in 2012 before getting engaged in 2015. And while Derek is a five-time World Series champion with the Yankees, his wife actually thought he was a pitcher when they first met. \u201cI know it sounds strange that I didn\u2019t know he was a shortstop,\u201d Hannah wrote in a 2017 blog post for The Players\u2019 Tribune<\/em><\/a>, which was founded by Derek. \u201cI can just imagine all of the New Yorkers reading this right now thinking, \u2018Oh, come aawwnn.\u2019 They probably don\u2019t believe me. You probably don\u2019t believe me. But it\u2019s true.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since tying the knot in July 2016 at Meadowood Napa Valley resort in St. Helena, California, the Jeters have welcomed four children. Being a father, Derek has said, is \u201cthe most gratifying thing\u201d he\u2019s ever done. During an interview with CBS This Morning<\/em>\u2018s Jeff Glor<\/strong><\/a> in 2018, he added, \u201cRegardless of how your day went at work, when you get home and you see a smile on your daughter\u2019s face, it makes it all worthwhile.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
