Jay Bruce’s wife Hannah Bruce grew up with the guy his whole life. They both come from a town called Beaumont in Texas. Jay started to go out with Hannah since early high school. The couple never broke up. Hannah traveled to Cincinnati with him when he first entered the Major Leagues. I think they officially got together around 2003 or 2004 since that would make them about 16 years old at the time. They became engaged in 2011 and planned to marry on December 1, 2012. They carried out their plan flawlessly and became Mr. and Mrs. on that very date!
Hannah stayed active on social media until March of 2015. I think she just got tired of all the nonsense that comes with gabbing online. She used to love to talk about local restaurants and coffee shops in the Cincinnati area. Jay Bruce’s wife always said generous things about the places she frequented. She posted a picture of a particular barbecue joint in Cincinnati and said it was the best in town. The picture included the prices for sandwiches, and I felt instantly jealous because everything is so much cheaper outside of New York. Back in 2013, after a full year of marriage, Hannah ran her first marathon! She ran in the Houston Marathon. She finished the race with a time of two hours and ten minutes. That’s a great job!
Now, the couple moved to New York since Jay joined the Mets. It’s a little more difficult for Hannah to find places to run, but she still manages to stay in shape. Jay Bruce’s wife obviously still maintains strong ties to her family in Texas, and they visit their whenever they can. Away games to Texas provide a great opportunity to visit and catch games as well. I am curious if Hannah kept up her marathon activities. The New York Marathon can be difficult to get registered for.
