With a nickname like “Jimmy Handsome”, you’d expect the list of Jimmy Garoppolo’s girlfriends to be long and detailed. Turns out, he’s really good at keeping his private life, well, private. Born on November 2, 1991, and raised in Arlington Heights, Illinois, Garoppolo is the quarterback for the Las Vegas Raiders.
He didn’t actually start out wanting to be a quarterback, though. Standing at 6”2’ in the sixth grade, Jimmy G started as a tight end and linebacker, soon to become a running back. Every time his coach Bob Viti asked him to take on the QB role, Garoppolo refused. “He never told me why,” Viti told Bleacher Report in 2018. As it turns out, Garoppolo didn’t want to take the position off of his best friend, Dan Lowry. “I didn’t know about quarterbacking,” he told Bleacher Report. “Nobody in my family had ever done it.”
A linebacker up until 2008, he pivoted to quarterback and watched tapes of then-Patriots legend Tom Brady slinging passes and was instantly inspired. Garoppolo finished high school with 3,136 passing yards and 25 touchdowns in 19 games at quarterback.
He played college football at Eastern Illinois University and during his time there, Garoppolo set numerous school records and won the Walter Payton Award, which is given to the most outstanding offensive player in the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS). “And, obviously, he got the girl attraction,” John Wurm, an EIU linebacker and Jimmy’s current best friend, told Bleacher Report. “It was ridiculous. Jim never led a girl on, though, or dated a girl.”
He was selected by the New England Patriots in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft (62nd overall) and served as the backup to Tom Brady for several seasons, earning him another nickname: Baby Brady. But Brady was suspended by the league for four games for Deflategate (the allegation that Brady ordered the deliberate deflation of footballs used in the Patriots’ victory against the Indianapolis Colts during the 2014 AFC Championship Game on January 18, 2015), and head coach Bill Belichick named Garoppolo the starting quarterback for the first game of the 2016 season, and he was expected to stand in for Brady for all four games
In exchange for a second-round draft pick, Garoppolo was traded to the San Francisco 49ers in 2017 but a year later, he sustained a season-ending ACL tear, and his career in SF was checkered after he returned. One of his exes commented “karma” at the news of his injury. Eeep.
Then, in 2023, Jimmy G signed a three-year, $72.5 million contract with the Las Vegas Raiders. With his sports successes and devastating good looks, he gets a lot of thirsty comments on Instagram, which he makes his friends read. “You’re not even sure if it’s a real person,” Jimmy said of the fans that contact him. “You just pretend they aren’t. … The comments are the weirdest part. The DMs are even crazier.”
Upon joining the Raiders, Caitlin Bell and Alice Little from the Chicken Ranch brothel in Vegas offered Jimmy “free sex for life“, according to TMZ. “He deserves free sex just for joining our team,” Bell said. “But he gets free sex for life from us just because he’s such a legit babe!” With all that said, here’s what we know about Jimmy Garoppolo’s girlfriends.
Jimmy Garoppolo’s girlfriends
As mentioned, the identity of Jimmy Garoppolo’s girlfriends is quite a mystery—unlike many star athletes, for example, his Wikipedia page does not contain a Personal Life section. But here’s what we can gather.
Kiara Mia (2018)
The most recent rumors of romance date back to 2018 when Jimmy Garoppolo and adult film star Kiara Mia were photographed by TMZ leaving Ava Restaurant in Beverly Hills, “where they walked in arm-in-arm and toasted with wine together at the dinner table,” the tabloid reported at the time. “At the end of the date, the two walked to a waiting car together—Jimmy had a big smile on his face.”
It didn’t seem like their romance, if there was one, lasted that long at all. She was even accused by some of “cursing” Jimmy’s career at SF, to which she told TMZ: “I’m impressed that people look at me as a God,” she said. “Like, only God has the power to, like, control someone’s journey in life. So, I’m flattered people think I have that much power in my life to control somebody’s life!”
Alexandra King (2017-2018)
In 2017, Jimmy Garoppolo was with the New England Patriots when he was said to be involved with social media model Alexandra King but he never confirmed it. In February 2018, King called Garoppolo her “Valentine,” confirming the rumors, but the post was deleted. In June 2018, the NFL star was photographed by TMZ holding hands with King in Disneyland, but during the interview with Bleacher Report, Garoppolo said their relationship was “news to me.”
