J.J. McCarthy—the comeback winner of the Minnesota Vikings’ 27-24 victory over the Chicago Bears—has a loving and supportive fiancée in Katya Kuropas. According to People.com, she has been a steady presence and a rock throughout his career. Kuropas, in turn, also expressed her love and admiration for him. Now, where did she do that? The mutual admiration was evident during a segment for The Bleacher Talk Podcast on August 11, held at the U. S. Bank Stadium. Host Emma Gerges asked Kuropas, “If you could call one person on the Vikings right now, who would you call?” J.J. McCarthy's pregnant fiancée replied, “Probably, my fiancé, J.J.
He’s super responsible. Good guy.”
J.J. McCarthy and fiancée Katya Kuropas are soon going to be a family of five
On August 11, at the U.S. Bank Stadium, Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy’s fiancée described him as “super responsible” and a “good guy.” Ten days prior—on August 1—the pregnant couple shared five monochrome snapshots from their maternity photoshoot on their collaborative Instagram post. The post, which featured McCarthy, Kuropas, and their two dogs, was captioned: “Soon to be family of 5 🩶.”
As for why they chose a monochromatic theme, perhaps the adorable couple views it as a symbol of patient anticipation—waiting for their baby boy to add color to their lives.
With the Week 1 win secured, J.J. McCarthy is undoubtedly even more excited to welcome his baby boy in September. The adorable couple shared eight Instagram snapshots from their pregnancy announcement on May 22nd. Their collaborative caption, posted then, read: “The best surprises come when you least expect them.
Our sweet baby boy is arriving in September and we couldn’t be happier🩵🍼.”
