Here are the details.
Aaron Judge and wife Samantha Bracksieck are expecting a baby
In a heartfelt pre-recorded video, Judge revealed that he and Samantha Bracksieck are expecting their first child.
The announcement came as he accepted the 2024 AL MVP Award. Apologizing for his absence at the ceremony, Judge explained, “My wife Samantha and I, are expecting our first child any day and unfortunately could not make it,” Judge said. Here, he also thanked his peers, coaches, trainers, the New York Yankees, and his family for their support in his career.
While Judge did not disclose the baby’s gender in the video, reports have previously confirmed that the couple is expecting a girl. Last month, Page Six broke the news of Samantha Bracksieck’s pregnancy, fueling excitement among fans and followers.
Aaron Judge and Samantha Bracksieck tied the knot in December 2021 during an intimate ceremony in Hawaii. They kept their relationship largely private, even opting not to formally announce their engagement prior to their wedding. They had first met each other when they attended Linden High School. Judge and Bracksieck later attended college together at Fresno State University.
Despite Judge’s celebrity status, he has consistently kept his personal life with Bracksieck away from the public eye. He rarely shares glimpses of their relationship on social media and has maintained a low profile about their private moments. However, he had credited his wife in an appearance on the Casa De Klub podcast for being instrumental in securing his contract with the Yankees in 2022. Here, he mentioned that his wife had pushed him to contact Hal Steinbrenner for the same.
