Dustin Nippert and wife Carrie Nippert walked down the aisle in 2004. They were together for a decade till their divorce was finalized in 2014.
The bride was three years older, 26, compared to the broom, who was 23 at the time of their big day.
The former baseball pitcher was the star of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Selected in the 2002 MLB Draft, Nippert stayed with them till 2007.
In 2004, he met Carrie during one of his games. They hit it off right away, and soon they started dating. She was a beautiful and kind-hearted soul from Powhatan Point, Ohio.
The couple fell in love, and in a romantic ceremony, they got hitched. Dustin and Carrie had two children, Caden and Aubrey.
In March 2011, Dustin announced he was leaving MLB to play for the Doosan Bears in the South Korean league.
The right-handed batsman saw this as an opportunity to challenge himself and explore a new culture.
Carrie supported his decision, but the long distance took a toll on their relationship. Dustin’s career in Korea flourished as time passed, but his marriage fell apart.
Eventually, in 2014, Dustin and Carrie decided to go their separate ways.
