George Kittle and Claire’s relationship history
According to Bol News, George and Claire married in 2019 after meeting during their time at the University of Iowa. As he mentioned in his proposal video on Instagram, he saw Claire for the first time when he was a freshman. He was outside his dormitory with his roommate when he spotted her walking from the parking lot into the dorms. George claims he spent eight months with Claire in the “friend zone” before developing their relationship.
The 49ers receiver proposed to his girlfriend in 2018 and were married a year later. After eloping and quietly getting married in 2019, they held a reception again in 2021 for their friends. “I had always looked up to those people who ran away and eloped or just walked right up to the courthouse and left married. Thought it was so cool!” she wrote on her blog in 2019. Currently, during the off-season, they live in Nashville, Tennessee, close to their family.
The new Netflix series Receivers also features George and Claire and focuses on five of the NFL’s elite receivers for the 2023-24 season.
