Jimmy Garoppolo's Girlfriend: Is The 49ers' Quarterback Dating Anyone?
Whether you're a die-hard football fan or you're favorite part of the Super Bowl is the snacks, there's one name you can't miss: Jimmy Garoppolo. He's the 28-year-old quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers who led his team to Super Bowl LIV versus the Kansas City Chiefs. You may be curious about Garoppolo's stats on the field — or you may be curious if he's playing the field in his love life, especially after seeing him flash that eye-catching smile. Well, if you're wondering about the latter, don't worry, we've got you covered.
Sure, trying to track down details about Garoppolo's personal life may seem like a sport in itself (hey, the guy likes his privacy), but there are still enough details out there that are worth sifting through. Ready, set, let's go.
Yes, Jimmy Garoppolo knows he's good-looking
First things first, Jimmy Garoppolo knows he's good-looking. He joked to Bleacher Report in 2018: "I thank my parents for the good looks. It's the Italian tan, I guess." Garoppolo also widely smiled when asked if former teammate Tom Brady gave him any dating tips, responding, "I can't tell you that. That's top-secret stuff." Can you imagine the advice that Brady may (or may not) have given the younger guy, especially since ol' Brady has been married to supermodel Gisele Bundchen for more than a decade.
Despite being well-aware of his pleasant appearance, Garoppolo still gets caught off-guard by all the attention — because yes, he's only human. "The comments are the weirdest part," he told Bleacher Report. "The DMs are even crazier." Oh, to be a fly on the wall of that Instagram inbox.
Jimmy Garoppolo tries to protect his privacy
Since Jimmy Garoppolo is catching fans' attention on the field and off, there's an increased spotlight on his love life. In summer 2018, the athlete was spotted out with Kiara Maria, an adult film actress, according to TMZ. The photos blew up, and Garoppolo later addressed the situation — while simultaneously deflecting the press. "Life is different now," he told reporters, per the New York Post. "My life off the field, I've never really been big on being very public with things. Even social media, I'm not out there a ton. My life's looked at differently. I'm under a microscope."
While the football player kept pretty mum, Maria opened up to TMZ about their time together. "Jimmy and I had an amazing dinner. And he treated me with so much respect and class, and honestly, we're friends," she said. But wait, she also dished out some serious intrigue: "Let me tell you this much, I've never been a fan of football," she said, but after spending time with Garoppolo? "I'm officially a fan of football, and I can promise the 49ers that they will make Super Bowl and win because everything I touch turns to gold."
Is it possible that this year's Super Bowl run for the 49ers is the result of that dinner date with Maria a year and a half ago? We'll let you be the judge.
Jimmy Garoppolo may have dated model Alexandra King
In addition to being spotted out on a date with adult film star Kiara Maria in 2018, there was another woman Jimmy Garoppolo made headlines with that year. According to the New York Post, the San Francisco 49ers quarterback dated model Alexandra King from about February to April 2018, although he never confirmed it himself. "It was news to me," he told Bleacher Report, after reading about his alleged romance with King.
Even so, TMZ snagged photos of the pair holding hands at Disneyland, and King reportedly shared a pic of Garoppolo on Valentine's Day. However, things might not have ended the best between these two, considering King allegedly posted an Instagram Story on a since-deleted IG account that read, "Karma" along with a smiley face, when Garoppolo was carted off the field with an injury during a game in September 2018, per the Post. Yikes! Maybe that was just a coincidence. We'll let you decide that one, too.
Jimmy Garoppolo keeps dodging girlfriend questions
Although Jimmy Garoppolo has not publicly confirmed his relationship status at this time, a recent interview may be the biggest clue yet. As seen on NBC Sports' 49ers' Twitter, a female reporter decided to pop the question to the football player at a press conference. Garoppolo seemingly got flustered, laughed, and responded, "I'll get back to you." Hmm... Does that mean he's still playing the field? Don't you think if he was in a relationship, he would have politely just mentioned that he's taken? That would certainly be a gentlemanly response.
Maybe the star quarterback is justs continuing his trend of keeping any and every detail about his personal life to himself. Suffice to say, Garoppolo's love life is as top-secret as the 49ers' playcalling.
