Throughout his life, Derek Jeter has been fortunate to have the hand of fate on his shoulder. While his legendary baseball career was built on a foundation of hard work and dedication, there’s no denying the role that luck also played in his success. Because along the way, he also found his soulmate, and together they built a beautiful family.
When it comes to his family, Jeter is a captain of a different kind – one who prioritizes love and devotion above all else. Despite retiring from the sport he loves nearly a decade ago, Jeter remains a devoted husband to Hannah and a doting father to his three daughters. One might imagine that his girls must be made of the same stuff as their father – they won’t be wrong. Captain Clutch has made it his mission to raise strong, independent daughters who can take on the world with the same tenacity as he did on the field.
