Cody Bellinger earns "best husband" tag from wife, Chase, for mouth watering birthday gift

New York Yankees slugger Cody Bellinger's wife Chase celebrated her 27th birthday on June 10. The Yankees star had a perfect gift for his better half on her special day.

Cody Bellinger started dating Chase, a model for Sports Illustrated, in 2020 and the duo has been together since then, sharing two daughters. Bellinger celebrated his wife's birthday by sending a special cake.

Chase shared pictures of the cake on Instagram, praising the Yankees star for his gesture.

"I can't get over it, I have the best husband," Chase wrote in one of her stories.

"Coming in with my FAVORITE CAKE," she wrote in another story with heart emojis.

Cody Bellinger and Chase Carter started dating in July 2020. The duo welcomed their first child, a daughter, Caiden, in November 2021. They added another family member, their second daughter in April 2023.

The duo got engaged in June of the same year and reportedly tied the knot in December 2023. They also share a dog, Junior, their "first born son," according to the Yankees star.

Cody Bellinger started his MLB journey with the Los Angeles Dodgers and won the World Series title with the NL West team in 2020. Although he moved to the Chicago Cubs in 2023, he shares a strong bond with former Dodgers teammate Corey Seager, now with the Texas Rangers.

Corey Seager's wife, Madisyn, and Bellinger's wife, Chase, also share a strong friendship, and the duo are often seen spending time together with other friends.

Last week, Chase posted a picture with Madisyn on Instagram. The post was captioned: "Biggggg dump," with pictures of her friends and family.

While Chase is enjoying her time off the field, the former World Series winner has flown under the radar since his trade to New York from Chicago in the offseason.

Bellinger is batting .261 with nine home runs and 35 RBI. He went 1-for-4 in his last outing against the Boston Red Sox in an 11-7 loss in Sunday's series decider.
