Sharing the post on her Instagram story, Lexi dedicated a heartfelt message to her husband, J.T. Realmuto.

"No words will ever do justice to what this man has gone through with me," she wrote. "When I look at him, I hear the words 'a real man,' not because he provides financially or because he shows up for his kids, not because he works hard at his craft. Because he has sat in my emotions, took what other people have destroyed in me and sat in the restoration process to build something new."

"When I'm incredibly unlovable, he tells me how easy it is to love me. He truly dies to himself and his desires daily to honor me. He isn't perfect but his obedience to Christ and his devotion to me has changed the trajectory of my life👏," she added.

IJM is an organization that works to combat human trafficking and other forms of exploitation of vulnerable individuals all over the world.

At the "Faith and Baseball Night" on Sunday, J.T. Realmuto was asked about his partnership with the organization. He said (via Philly Sports Network):

“I think just with having our kids and seeing how innocent they are and how fortunate our kids are to be in the situation they are. Not every kid is that lucky. So we’re passionate about that and trying to make a change in the world for that.”
