"No crying this year" - Freddie Freeman & wife Chelsea all smiles as couple met Santa Clause with their boys

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman had a fantastic 2024 season. Batting .282, with 22 home runs and 189 RBIs in the regular season, Freeman was a crucial piece of the puzzle for skipper Dave Roberts' as he masterminded a World Series-winning campaign.

Infinitely more important than any on-field achievement, though, are the positive developments in the health of Freeman's son, Maximus. Shortly after the All-Star break, Freeman's three-year-old was diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare neurological disorder.

Thankfully, after eight days in the intensive care unit, Max got better and returned home. He is now on the road to making a full recovery.

On Tuesday, Freddie's wife, Chelsea, took to Instagram to post a story as the whole family got themselves in the Christmas spirit, visiting Santa Claus.

According to sources, Freddie Freeman met his wife in 2011 when he was on the Atlanta Braves' books, and she was a student at the University of Central Florida. They got engaged in January 2014 after Chelsea graduated, and went on to tie the knot in November of the same year. The couple have three sons- Charlie, Brandon and Maximus.
