Jim Harbaugh's daughter, Grace, shows love to dad with throwback moment from Michigan on Father's Day Eve

On the eve of Father’s Day, Los Angeles Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh's daughter Grace shared a touching tribute to her dad, posting a pair of images on her Instagram story.

The first is a heartwarming throwback of a much younger Grace riding a carousel horse, with her father smiling in the background. The image comes along with the message:

“Happy Father’s Day 💙”

The second image featured a heartwarming hug between Grace and her father on the football field during his time at Michigan. In the maize-and-blue surroundings, Jim is hugging his daughter tightly. Grace had a blue heart emoji placed over the moment.

When Harbaugh was the coach of the Michigan Wolverines, Grace took the coach's fandom for the program to the next level. She celebrated Harbaugh inking a bold “15‑0” tattoo, accompanied by a maize‑and‑blue “M,” to commemorate Michigan’s undefeated and national championship season.

Grace embraces the West Coast and supports dad Jim Harbaugh

After leading the Wolverines to national championship, Jim Harbaugh left the program to lead the LA Chargers in the NFL. In his very first season back, he led the Chargers to the NFL playoffs.

His departure to California led Grace to soak up the “West Coast vibe” following her graduation from Michigan. She visited Manhattan Beach during the offseason.

Grace, born on June 27, 2000, in San Diego, California, is the daughter of Jim Harbaugh and Miah Harbaugh. Her siblings include Jay (NFL special teams coordinator), James, Addison, Katherine, Jack and John.

She was a water polo standout at the University of Michigan. According to People.com, she graduated from Michigan's Ross School of Business with a Masters in business management. She works as a social media intern at Fangirl Sports Network and a marketing/brand partnerships trainee at United Talent Agency.

On social media platforms, like TikTok and Instagram, she shares glimpses from her personal life with friends and family. Some of her viral videos were surrounding Michigan, especially the “Airport Jim” video, which captures her dad’s pre-game routines in Michigan gear.
