Mookie Betts, a 26-year-old Major League Baseball (MLB) outfielder, has a devoted career. With his difficult yet dazzling career, the footballer is well-known for his eagerness to add another graceful accomplishment with his long-term girlfriend.
Mookie has been dating the same lady since he was in middle school. They had their first kid in 2018 after navigating numerous thorny and petal-filled routes.
Engaged, Soon-To-Be-Married?
The Major League Baseball outfielder resisted opening his romantic chapters until he was on the field and concentrating on his career; his decade-long fairytale-like love story couldn’t remain hidden beneath the shed.
In August 2013, the 26-year-old shed light on his eight-year-long difficult journey with his sweetheart by sharing a beautiful photo with her on Instagram.
He met his girlfriend Brianna Hammonds in 2005, and the two have been together since.
The pair has been together for more than a decade, battling in times of sadness and celebrating in times of delight. They are supposed to march from their dating life to an engagement after more than a decade together.
Though they never confirmed their relationship, a wedding registration established in their names suggests their wedding may be imminent.
Despite a few glimpses into their ‘newly engaged’ lives, the couple has not spoken about their engagement or wedding plans—yet!
Welcoming Infant Prior to Wedding; 2018 His ‘Most Excellent’
With wedding rumors circulating, Mookie Betts shocked the world by announcing the birth of ‘Baby Betts.’ Similar to his low-key dating life, he kept his girlfriend, Brianna’s, pregnancy a secret until she was six months pregnant.
The father-to-be announced via Twitter on 8 August 2018 that his partner is pregnant with their first child. He revealed – via an edited newspaper effect termed “The Betts Chronicle” – that the baby’s due date will be November 19, 2018.
And, through their well-wishes and congratulatory tweets, his followers have pondered him.
Since announcing their first kid with his fiancée on his Instagram, the happiest father-to-be has been gushing about the baby Betts.
The Boston Red Sox player and his partner are both excited to become parents, as are his parents, who are constantly cheering him on during his games. Willis Betts, a veteran of the United States Air Force, and his mother, Diana Benedict, have always been his primary sources of support throughout his career.
With a grandson on the way, his mother reflected on Mookie’s early years as a toddler, praising him as a naturally skilled athlete, stating that ‘a gene of athletes was already awakening inside him.’
Mookie received the greatest present of his life on 6 November 2018 when he became the father of a lovely baby girl.
Mookie Betts’ Salary
Mookie had agreed to a contract with the Boston Red Sox worth an average of $10,500,000 each year. The young professional baseball players have a net worth of $2 million due to their lucrative salaries.
Mookie’s best season came in 2018 when he won the American League MVP. The gifted athlete became only the second player in baseball history to win the World Series, the Gold Glove, the Silver Slugger, and the MVP all in the same season. It was the first time in the American League’s history. Additionally, he won the Gold Glove three consecutive years.
Due to his outstanding success as a member of the Boston Red Sox, he obtained a wage increase.
While Mookie had been receiving an increase in compensation since 2017, his outstanding success in 2018 convinced his team’s managers. As a result, they agreed to enhance his salary by $9.5 million. As of 2019, he began earning a whopping $20 million a year.
Fans can’t wait for him to top himself in 2019.
