Los Angeles Dodgers followers have fallen in love with SportsNet LA sideline reporter Kirsten Watson. But it seems that Watson’s romantic love is elsewhere.

Watson, who has been on the Dodgers’ broadcast staff as a reporter and host since 2021, made an Instagram submit on Monday that included a mirror selfie video of her being held from behind by a man in a hat. At the finish of the video, Watson breaks out in a large smile, indicating how comfortable she is to be displaying her man to the world.

“one lucky girl 🦋,” the submit was captioned.

It’s unclear who this man is, but Watson had been soft-launching him (including not-so-subtle photographs of them collectively with out displaying his face) for some time. But the couple seems to now have made their relationship official.

Watson has impressed both within the Dodgers’ group and among Los Angeles followers since beginning the broadcasting position. She has a prestigious background, including being awarded the Stuart Scott Internship-Scholarship from the National Association of Black Journalists.

She went viral earlier this yr for delivering a no-look fist bump to a member of the Dodgers during a dwell report from the dugout, as viewers were amazed at how the distraction didn’t influence Watson’s supply.

She also has a secret handshake with Mookie Betts, and followers have observed that she can elicit a uncommon smile out of outfielder Kyle Tucker.

There were certainly some Dodgers followers that were hopeful about a potential romance with Watson who don’t like seeing this onerous launch. But the relaxation of Los Angeles’ trustworthy fan base will be comfortable for her.
