Kayla, Bryce Harper’s wife, is a devoted supporter.
After Philadelphia overcame San Diego for the opportunity to meet the Houston Astros in the 2022 World Series, Kayla joyfully leapt up and down together with a number of other wives and girlfriends of Phillies players.
Later, Kayla posted on Instagram that during the joyful celebration, she “blacked out.”
The Harpers, from Las Vegas, were high school sweethearts and have been married since 2016. They have a 3-year-old son named Krew and a 2-year-old daughter named Brooklyn. Following one of the Phillies’ postseason triumphs, the little ones appeared on the field wearing lovely matching coats.
After a high school career in which she established the Nevada state record for career assists, coached her team to a state championship win, and was a national All-American, Kayla Harper played Division I soccer at BYU and Ohio State
The Harpers briefly broke off their 2014 engagement in 2015. They reconciled and got re-engaged in 2016.
The superstar outfielder was heckled by Nationals fans in 2019 when he signed a 13-year, $330 million contract with the NL East rival Phillies. Bryce Harper later expressed regret that the heckling went too far.
Kayla came to her husband’s defense, calling the heckling fans “classless.”
“When you bring his son or family into it, yes you’re crossing a line. Stick to your overused overrated and Harper sucks chants if you’re really that loser that goes to a game to heckle someone,” she tweeted at the time. “Phillies fans might boo him but they don’t bring his 4 week old son into it. Classless.”
Additionally that year, Kayla called out another woman for attempting to slide into her husband’s direct messages on Instagram.
