Derek Jeter’s Wife, Hannah Jeter, Once Willingly Stepped Into the Spotlight to Share a Unique Perspective on Her Husband

Privacy is always important to every person, no matter how much of an open book they are otherwise. But it’s especially important to individuals in the spotlight. People often think they’re owed every piece of information regarding a celebrity’s life. But that’s something every famous personality struggles with, especially in the age of social media. Derek Jeter, who is even now famous for his years in baseball, still goes through this.

Whenever he walked into the stadium, hordes of crowds screamed his name from the stands, with big slogans declaring their love for him. Some even asked for his hand in marriage. But the woman who ultimately tied the knot with him didn’t come from the baseball world. Hannah Davis was a supermodel that came into the former Yankee’s life at the right time. And while she knew why the need for privacy was important, Mrs. Jeter once shared a unique outlook on their lives together.

Hannah Jeter once shared her personal perspective on Derek Jeter

The former Yankees captain launched a new media website called The Player’s Tribune in 2014. The platform focuses on first-perspective stories from professional athletes that don’t always get told. And Hannah Jeter wrote her piece on their relationship sometime before the couple was due to have their first daughter.

The supermodel focused on how important it was to own one’s narrative. She wanted to give the pro baseballer’s fans an insight into what he was like off the field, just this once. “We’ve been private for a reason. But I kind of wanted to give maybe his fans, I guess, a little insight into why we did it that way,” she told Sports Illustrated. She went on to say she didn’t want to deal with speculation and rumors and wanted to say something on her own terms.

The story was Hannah’s way of introducing the former Yankee to their kids

The Jeters are well aware of the circumstances their kids will grow up in. Their dad’s fame will no doubt affect their upbringing but the parents want it to be a positive thing. Hannah Jeter went on to say in her talk with SI that she was trying to work through their story, figuring out what she wanted to tell her children one day.
