MLB great Derek Jeter‘s quest for finding the one in his life ended when he started dating the supermodel Hannah Davis in 2012. Little did the 5x World Series champ know that an accidental meeting at a restaurant would turn out to be one of the best things in his life. While Jeter continued to leave his mark in the baseball world, Davis was no different in the modeling industry.

Davis reached heights in the modeling industry pretty early in life. But there was something that always kept her grounded. It was the same thing that Derek Jeter always wanted for himself, i.e., being humble and caring for their families. Hence, months before marrying the love of her life, Hannah spoke about living a full life with the most important people in her life, her family.

While talking to GQ about being with family on her waterfront island house, Hannah said, “That girl in high school that spent every waking moment with the boyfriend and lost all her girlfriends?! That’s not what life’s about. You have family and friends for a reason! You can’t leave that in the dust. And your partner should agree with that and want the same things for himself.” 

Coincidentally for her, she found a partner who had the same feelings about his family. Before marrying Hannah, Derek had always longed for a big family. If the rumors are considered true, then Jeter tried his best to find the perfect woman for him. But little did he know, during the 2012 off-season, he would randomly meet a woman who would help him have a big family of his own.

How did Derek meet Hannah?

During the regular season, nothing could sway the MLB great from fulfilling his duties. However, the offseason was entirely different. Hence, one day during a party with his friends in a restaurant, he met Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit model, Hannah Davis. 

Davis was already at the restaurant having dinner with her mother when her friend from Derek’s group introduced the two. Be it fate or something else, something clicked between the two at the moment that the supermodel deliberately let Jeter know she was single at the moment. And the rest is history.
