New York Mets star Pete Alonso found a home-run love story with his wife, Haley Alonso.
“I just couldn’t get enough of her,” Pete gushed to ESPN in 2020. “For me, this was The One.”
Pete and Haley met five years earlier during summer break from college when he went to a baseball camp in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Haley, who attended Michigan State University at the time, was also visiting the island.
At the end of the summer, Pete and Haley continued dating from afar. While Haley was in Michigan, the baseball first baseman attended the University of Florida. Their long-distance romance even inspired jokes from Pete’s roommates.
“It got bad to where they were totally tearing into me about it,” Pete recalled to ESPN. “And then I was really upset.”
Pete and Haley refused to give into the peer pressure of a long-distance relationship and stayed together, with the pro athlete even sending daily hand-written letters to his future wife. Pete proposed in 2018 and they wed three years later.
