23-Year-Old MLB Ace Finds the Perfect Response to Viral Margot Robbie Dating Hoax

After being signed for $5,226,500 in 2018 by the San Diego Padres, 23-year-old Ryan Weathers has quickly jumped up the ranks to make his name in the realm of MLB as a bright prospect with the Padres. However, with popularity comes chaos and rumors. And most recently, Ryan Weathers found himself on the other side of rumors, matched with Hollywood star Margot Robbie. But the rising pitcher speedily responded to these rumors, with a shout-out to his wife Thayer Hall.

The couple got engaged one year ago, in January 2022. He followed his engagement with an adorable post on Twitter, expressing his love for Thayer. He said, “A year full of excitement, love and memories. Now here’s to a lifetime of all three. I love you Thayer.”

Months after their engagement, the then-22-year-old pitcher married his wife Thayer Hall in November 2022. However, most recently, Ryan Weathers found himself at the center of rumors associated with Hollywood superstar Margot Robbie. The rumor claimed that the Padres pitcher is presently dating the two-time Academy Award nominee Margot Robbie.
