Relationship with Jessica Mendoza
Adam Burks and Jessica Mendoza have a rather interesting love story. The first time the couple met was in 2004 which is the same year that Mendoza helped the US Women’s Softball team to clinch the Gold Medal at the Olympics in Athens. They met at a wedding and almost instantly, they fell for each other.
Because of their different engagements and the softball career of Jessica, their relationship at the time was mostly long distance, but that did not change a thing for the lovers. Two years into dating, they decided they wanted to share the rest of their lives together and so they tied the knot in 2006.
In 2009, the two welcome their first son, Caleb Ashton. At the time Mendoza was still playing softball and she was just offered a professional softball deal in Florida. She wanted to drop it for the sake of their kid but Adam who was an engineer encouraged her to take it while he became a stay-at-home dad. This did not only help her with her career as a player, but it also helped her to get a job in the media after she had retired from playing.
Their union was later blessed with another son, Caden Adam.
