Is Anthony Volpe romantically involved?

Anthony Volpe has become a crucial part of the Yankees’ future, despite the struggle, and fans are just as interested in his personal life as they are in his baseball career. The right-handed shortstop, who made his debut in 2023 and became the first Yankees rookie to hit 20 home runs and steal 20 bases in a season, has mostly kept things private.

But his recent public appearance with Elle Jowett at the Willow Gala has changed the spotlight, suggesting that the Volpedo might be brewing a new romantic love story.

Who is Elle Jowett? Everything to know about the social media influencer

Elle Jowett is a wellness-focused lifestyle creator in New York City. She’s quite a star, with over 70,000 TikTok followers and more than 15.7K Instagram followers. Her content? Workout plans, time spent in the sauna, and running music with a touch of city life.

She moved from Maine to New York in the fall of 2023. She lightly mentioned this in a December TikTok video, which quickly became a minor news story among influencers. That move gave her credibility as a city dweller and a way to combine regular wellness with the energy of the city.

Her growing popularity wasn’t just seen on her posts; it also caught the attention of people in Yankee homes. On one of her photos in June, Cody Bellinger’s wife wrote “Gorgeousssss,” which was a hint that she’s more than just a face in the feed.
