Bobby Witt Jr.’s wife Maggie shares an emotional anniversary message as their high school love hits a special milestone

Not every meaningful moment in Bobby Witt Jr.’s life plays out in front of a crowd. Some happen quietly, away from the noise that usually follows his name. Sunday was one of those moments.

The Kansas City Royals shortstop marked his first wedding anniversary with his wife Maggie, a milestone that carried more history than headlines.Their relationship did not begin with fame or expectations. It started years earlier in Colleyville, Texas, when they were still in high school. Long before contracts and seasons shaped their calendar, they were simply growing up together. Nearly nine years later, that same relationship reached its first year of marriage, grounded in time spent side by side rather than moments captured for attention.
