Cardinals and MLB legend Albert Pujols found love in the form of Nicole Fernandez after going through a messy divorce with his first wife, Deidre Pujols, in 2022.
On November 10, Pujols shared a post on Instagram wishing his wife, Nicole, a happy birthday filled with heartfelt wishes and blessings.
"Happy birthday my love. I feel very grateful to God for giving me the opportunity to be with you on this special day. I hope that God continues to bless you always and that you can see all your wishes come true. I LOVE YOU. Tito," he wrote.
In 2022, not long after his tumultuous divorce was finalized, the first baseman began dating a prominent figure in the Dominican Republic, Nicole Fernandez, the daughter of former DR president Leonel Fernandez.
Pujols and Nicole have been enjoying the time of their lives together ever since they began dating, and that happiness has grown into a loving relationship and holy matrimony.
Ever since their marriage, Nicole has been a strong supporter of Pujol's choices in life, as the big man bid adieu to his playing career last year. It remains unclear as to where the couple first met, but their one-year relationship transcended into holy matrimony in September 2023.
