Kate Upton and Justin Verlander first met in 2012, while they were working together on a commercial for the Major League Baseball 2K12 video game.

At the time, Justin Verlander was playing for the Detroit Tigers. After being spotted together in 2013 for the first time, the pair parted ways, only to reunite the following season.

The couple tied the knot in November 2017 at a hilltop church in Tuscany, Italy, surrounded by friends and family. The wedding happened mere days after Verlander's Astros defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers to win the 2017 World Series.

A three-time Cy Young Award winner, Justin Verlander, is beginning the 2024 season on the Houston Astros' injured list. Despite being 41 years old, the right-handed pitcher is still regarded as one of the league's most dominant starters.

Astros manager's eyes prompt return of Justin Verlander

After arriving at Astros spring training in February with shoulder tightness, Justin Verlander entered the 15-day IL to start the season. Despite the setback, his team seems to have full confidence in the former MVP's ability to get back on the mound. Recently, manager Joe Espada told the Houston Chronicle:

'That's his level of confidence with where he's at right now. When I see him pacing around the clubhouse, how energetic he is today, then this guy is ready to go."

It remains to be seen whether he can dial back the years.
