Pete Armstrong and Hailey Lavelle (Image via: Getty) Pete Crow-Armstrong continues to carve out his place with the Chicago Cubs, and much of the spotlight naturally follows his on-field growth. But away from stats and highlight plays, his partner Hailey Lavelle is often seen supporting the Cubs star and sharing glimpses of their life. The story centers on his relationship with Hailey Lavelle, whose presence has offered consistency as the outfielder adjusts to life in the majors. Their relationship has not been defined by constant public exposure, but by subtle appearances and supportive gestures that reflect balance during a demanding phase of his career.
How Hailey Lavelle’s steady presence has followed Crow-Armstrong from spring training to center stage
Crow-Armstrong revealed in a GQ interview that he and Lavelle first met at the wedding of Cole Tucker and Vanessa Hudgens, an unexpected meeting that eventually led to a relationship now nearing a year and a half. Since then, Lavelle has often been seen attending games, quietly cheering from the stands as Crow-Armstrong navigates the pressures of a full MLB season.Her support surfaced publicly during Cubs spring training when Crow-Armstrong explained the story behind his distinctive blue-star hairstyle. Speaking to ESPN, he said, “I was just going in to get a cleanup. I already had bleach. And my girlfriend, Hailey, her little sister, she’s a tattoo artist, but she’s a very talented artist overall, and I trusted her to paint, and she kind of egged me on and convinced me to throw some big blue stars on my head. I was just going in to clean it up and walk out of there. But a little more happened than that.”Lavelle, an esthetician by profession, has followed her own independent path, balancing education and work long before Crow-Armstrong’s national attention grew. She has also accompanied him to major milestones, including his first MLB All-Star Game red carpet, offering support during moments that signal career progression.They have been together for almost 2 years as 2025 ends and their relationship continues to reflect a sense of balance that is really rare in the fast-moving world of professional sports. As Crow looks ahead to his MLB journey, Lavelle’s presence stands as a remainder that behind every rising athlete, there is often a grounded personal life helping keep everything in perspective.
