Trevor Lawrence’s wife, Marissa Mowry, has been his biggest cheerleader since they were kids — and he wouldn’t have it any other way.
“We met in fifth grade, so I won’t say I knew [she was The One] in fifth grade,” the Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback exclusively told Us Weekly in February 2023. “We started dating seriously in 10th grade.”
Mowry has been documenting their romance from its 2016 start. After dating for two years, the couple celebrated their high school graduation together before becoming long distance in college.
The twosome’s relationship was “off and on for a while,” according to Lawrence. “Then once we got to college it got really serious,” the professional athlete told Us in February 2023.
The Heisman Trophy candidate continued to date his high school sweetheart during his three years at Clemson University in South Carolina. Mowry, meanwhile, graduated from Anderson University which is located in the same state.
Lawrence and Mowry got engaged in 2020 while they were both still in school and walked down the aisle the following year. The fellow Georgia native was by her husband’s side in April 2021 when he was drafted into the NFL and the couple have been inseparable ever since.
“That’s what I wanted to do and she felt the same way,” Lawrence gushed to Us in February 2023 of his decision to tie the knot before starting his professional career. “So that’s why we got married young and we’re just excited.”
