Aaron Judge was grinning from ear to ear on Sunday after watching wife Samantha complete the 2025 New York City Marathon.
The Yankees superstar, 33, was photographed embracing Samantha, a veteran marathoner who finished the 26.2-mile run across the five boroughs at 12:43 p.m. with an unofficial time of 3:32:34.
Judge, fresh off his 10th season in The Bronx, has supported Samantha during the NYC Marathon in recent years.
The two-time AL MVP cheered on Samantha in 2022 and 2023 — the same year she offered advice to first-time NYC marathoner Emily Rizzo, the wife of Judge’s former Yankees teammate, Anthony Rizzo.
“I have gone to her throughout this entire process and asked her a gazillion questions about what the day [of] looks like, what I should be wearing, what headphones, what her training looks like,” Emily told The Post in 2023.
“We’ve ran together as well, and she’s really been a support system for me and given me a lot of good experience advice.”
Rizzo and Judge were teammates one last time in 2024 when the Yankees clinched a World Series berth. The Bombers lost to the Dodgers in five.
Although the Yankees reached the postseason in October, they were swept by the Blue Jays in the ALDS. Toronto reached the Fall Classic before falling to the Dodgers early Sunday in Game 7.
This year was a special one for Judge and Samantha as they became first-time parents in January to daughter Nora Rose.
Ahead of his first Father’s Day in June, Judge spoke about what being a dad has meant to him.
“I want to be able to teach my daughter important life lessons, always be there for her and show her the importance of hard work and little things like that. It’s probably the biggest title I got, getting a chance to be my daughter’s dad; that’s special,” he said.
Judge and Samantha have been married since 2021 and will celebrate their fourth wedding anniversary in December.
