New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor is happily married to Katie Lindor. In an interview with Haute Living published on March 8, 2023, Lindor discussed the intimate details of his marital life with Katie.
Calling himself a "lonely soul" he spoke about the importance of silence in his life, including in his relationship with his wife. He said that for him spending quality time with each other means something as simple as sitting next to each other on the couch and watching a "dumbasss show".
However, he knows that it could mean something else to his wife, but added that he has learned to communicate to her when he needs "some quiet time" and she understands and gives him that space.
“My wife and I have been together for four years; I’m learning her ways, and she’s still learning mine,” he said. “It’s a fairly new relationship, but we try to grow every day. And from what I’ve seen, I’ve learned that we definitely need to put work into growing together, because if we start to grow in different ways, that’s a problem.”
"Just sitting on the couch with my wife is quality time. We can be right next to each other, watching a dumbass show, and that's quality time," he said.
"Her quality time looks different, but I have learned to be able to communicate and say, 'Hey, I need, I need some time, some quiet time, all to myself.' And she understands."
