Since his selection in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL draft, tight end George Kittle has been a fixture with the San Francisco 49ers. Before his professional career, the Madison, Wisconsin native attended the University of Iowa and was a prominent figure in their football program. As of 2024, Kittle has appeared in five Pro Bowl games and has received First-team All-Pro honors twice. Because of this, people want to know more about his personal life, his wife, and how their relationship developed.
Who is George Kittle's wife? He is married to Claire Kittle!
George Kittle is married to Claire (née Till). They were college sweethearts and met while attending the University of Iowa. Like Kittle, Claire has an athletic background and played basketball for the Iowa Hawkeyes. However, her basketball career ended abruptly due to a recurring knee injury.
According to Claire's LinkedIn profile, she was the owner of Claire Till Fitness, a fitness trainer and barre instructor. She also has a blog, Lettey Set Go, though she hasn't posted updates since 2020.
In their 2018 proposal video, Kittle spoke about their first meeting, noting that he was 18 at the time and a freshman in college. "I saw her and I was like, 'Goddammit, who is that?'" he said. "He was like, 'Oh, that's Claire. Actually, one of my friends says she's a total b****.' And I was like, 'You know what, I'm going to find out for myself.'"
