Baseball icon Derek Jeter is widely known as the greatest shortstop in the history of the sport. For his salient contribution to the game, he also got inducted into Baseball’s National Hall of Fame in New York. The captain focused on creating a family only after he bid farewell to the game in 2014.
Notably, he married the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Hannah Davis in 2016. Since then, the couple has welcomed three daughters and are living their best lives. But before marrying the baseball great, Hannah had built her own lavish world. Once, she took a step ahead in her career by scoring a humongous six-figure deal to land a massive advertisement.

Being a supermodel comes with its own perks. It means getting the chance to star with even bigger celebrities and on their own in various advertisements.
Similarly, a year before getting married to the Hall of Famer, a source from the advertisement industry told Page Six that Hannah netted a “strong six-figure deal” for two ads on the beach. The ad was for DirecTV, where she had to appear with a horse on a tropical beach. The deal was given to the supermodel after DirecTV pulled Rob Lowe from their ads. According to the same source, “Hannah was less expensive than Rob Lowe, who got a seven-figure deal.”
Before Davis’ ad appeared on television, Lowe used to end the ad by saying, “Don’t be like this me. Get rid of cable and upgrade to DirecTV.” Whereas Davis ended it by saying, “Don’t just take it from me. Take it from my horse’s mouth,” followed by her horse speaking a few lines promoting DirecTV.

They clicked instantly, and because both of them were single at that time, they started dating. After being together for three years, in 2015, Jeter popped the question. Which evidently came as a surprise to the SI’s model. Since then, the couple is enjoying their lives together while keeping it all private at the same time.
