JACKSON Holliday has had quite the year both professionally and personally, including getting married to his high school sweetheart and making his MLB debut.
After the Baltimore Orioles optioned Holliday to the Norfolk Tides, their AAA affiliate team, fans were curious to see what was in store for the newlywed and his wife, Chloe Cox Holliday.
Who is Jackson Holliday’s wife, Chloe Cox?
Chloe Cox is best known as Jackson Holliday’s longtime girlfriend-turned-wife.
She was born on April 27, though the exact year – 2002, 2003, or 2004 – is unknown.
Chloe and Jackson first met when they were teenagers.
The duo both attended Stillwater High School in Stillwater, Oklahoma.
Not much is known about Chloe, beyond the fact that she is extremely supportive of Jackson and his baseball career.
Her social media page, primarily her Instagram, could double as her baseball beau’s fan page, as the majority of the pictures are of him or with him.
Both Chloe and Jackson are Christian, and Chloe even has the following passage in her Instagram biography: “Thessalonians 5:16-18.”
The passage reads “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
Beyond being glued to her husband’s side at baseball games and beyond, Chloe seems to enjoy spending time on the beach, tanning, and taking selfies.
She also appeared to have a brief stint as a model, represented by the Linda Layman Agency, as evidenced by an old Instagram post from April 3, 2020.
It is unclear whether Chloe has decided to pursue a college education, or what she has been doing for a living, since leaving high school.
However, back in December 2023, she did go on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic with Jackson and Compassion International, a nonprofit organization “releasing children from poverty in Jesus’ name.”
On March 16, 2024, Chloe also announced that her and Jackson’s family had a new member – a dog named Coconut.
When did they get married?
Jackson Holliday and Chloe Cox got married on January 6, 2024, at the Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa in Manalapan, Florida.
Chloe posted a series of photos from the couple’s big day on her social media page.
“1/6/2024 Forever,” she captioned the post.
Just a few days later, both Chloe and Jackson also shared additional photos of themselves at their wedding, including their first kiss.
“Mr. & Mrs. Holliday,” they captioned the post, alongside a red heart emoji.
The duo go engaged in December 2022 in Punta de Mita, Nayarit, Mexico.
“We are engaged !!!” Chloe captioned the post, showing off her new bling as the couple posed on the beach during their proposal photos.
Despite their relatively young ages, both Chloe and Jackson have been in a relationship for quite some time.
The duo, who originally met in high school, have been dating since 2019.
They most recently celebrated their four-year dating anniversary on August 26, 2023.
“x4 and forever to go,” Chloe captioned the post, alongside a red heart emoji.
What is Jackson Holliday’s net worth?
Jackson Holliday may be young, but he’s already amassed an impressive net worth.
His net worth is estimated to be around $8 million, and almost all of it is due to a hefty signing bonus.
Jackson was selected first overall by the Baltimore Orioles in the 2022 MLB draft, and finally made his MLB debut in 2024.
On July 27, 2022, he signed a contract with the Baltimore Orioles with an $8.19 million signing bonus.
His contract also included $740,000, up-front, guaranteed, along with an annual salary of the same amount.
That brings Jackson’s career earnings to $8,253,638, as reported by Spotrac.
Jackson was promoted from the Orioles’ Triple-A team, the Norfolk Tides, on April 10, 2024.
After managing only two hits – both singles – in ten games, the Orioles decided to send him back to Norfolk.
“We decided to call him up and see how the translation to the major leagues would go on a short-term basis,” general manager Mike Elias said, as reported by Yahoo News.
“What we have seen here led me to the evaluation and opinion that he would benefit from going back and adjusting there rather than doing it here in real time.”
It remains unclear how this impacts his contract, or his signing bonus.
Still, Jackson isn’t exactly hurting for cash, and if he does ever run low, he can likely call up his famous father for some help.
The professional baseball infielder is the son of former MLB All-Star Matt Holliday, a World Series champion and NLCS MVP.
Matt, a former professional baseball left infielder, has a reported net worth of $60 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
