Married for nearly five years, model Kate Upton and husband Justin Verlander are proud parents of a 3-year-old daughter, Genevieve. The couple, who tied the knot in 2017 following the Astros’ World Series victory, returned to the spot of their dreamy Italian nuptials last year, this time as a family of three.

“So much has changed these last 4 years! It was so amazing to visit the exact spot we said ‘I do’ with Vivi,” the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit alum, 30, gushed on Instagram at the time.

Prior to the start of the season, Verlander —a two-time Cy Young Award winner — added the role of director to his résumé as the 39-year-old ace helped Upton bring her Celine Dion vision to life in a now-viral rendition of “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now.”

The past two years have been a whirlwind for Reagan Elizabeth Bregman and her husband, Alex Bregman. Months after Bregman, 28, popped the question in January 2020 in Aspen, Colorado, the couple wed in December of that year.

“After re-planning our wedding (twice), reducing the size, quarantining & testing our guests, we are so thankful we were able to get married,” Reagan wrote on Instagram at the time. “It’s been a crazy year, but it showed me how grateful I am for our friends & family. Manifesting an aaamazing 2021 for everyone.”

Reagan’s dreams came true as she and Bregman welcomed son Knox Samuel in August 2022.

It certainly is “ring szn” for Trey Mancini and his bride-to-be, Sara Perlman. The couple, who announced their engagement in November 2021, is expected to wed in the near future following the World Series, where the 30-year-old first baseman is hopeful to earn his first championship ring.

Mancini, who is a cancer survivor following his stage 3 colon cancer diagnosis in 2020, was traded to the Astros over the summer after six seasons with the Orioles. Perlman, a sports reporter and host of NBC Sports’ “The Daily Line,” celebrated Mancini’s new beginnings in an Instagram tribute.

“Thank you Baltimore!” Perlman wrote in August. “For giving Trey the opportunity to play for this city for so many years, for saving his life (we are so grateful for you @hopkinsmedicine !!) And of course for introducing me to the love of my life right here at Camden Yards. This city will always have such a special place in our hearts.”

Phillies superstar Bryce Harper and his wife, Kayla, are high school sweethearts. Harper proposed in 2014 when Kayla was still attending Ohio State, and the couple tied the knot in December 2016. They share two kids: son Krew Aron, who was born in August 2019, and daughter Brooklyn Elizabeth, who arrived in November 2020.

Harper and Kayla’s love story took a few turns before they ultimately said “I do,” however. In fact, the couple had split after he popped the question, and their originally-planned 2015 nuptials never happened, according to The Washington Post.

The pair eventually reconciled that same year, and Kayla announced their engagement “again” in July 2016, posting a photo of the couple attending the ESPY Awards.

Kayla apparently “blacked out” earlier this month after the Phillies clinched a World Series berth following their Game 5 win over the Padres in the NLCS.

Phillies pitcher Aaron Nola and his fiancée, Hunter Jayde Harrington, are set to tie the knot in December, a year after the 29-year-old ace popped the question during a trip to Yonah Mountain in Georgia.

Harrington celebrated her bridal shower in July. The couple, who share two dogs together, has been dating since at least 2020.

Harrington supported Nola during the NLCS, including Philadelphia’s Game 5 win over San Diego.

“Trying to let it sink in…. WE ARE GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES!” Harrington wrote on Instagram, including photos with Nola on the field at Citizens Bank Park.
