Faith, Family and Football
The pair have long credited shared faith as the relationship’s cornerstone. Speaking to News Of Los Angeles in 2020, Tim called their connection “instant” and said, “I knew that she was a very special person.” He added, “I was waiting for the right person to come along … all of my dreams have come true.”
Demi-Leigh, who held the Miss Universe title in 2017, returned the praise in the same interview, calling her husband her “biggest support system” and noting, “In the two years we’ve known each other, we’ve found such a deep love.”
Since leaving professional football, Tim has focused on philanthropic work, including the annual Night to Shine prom for people with special needs-the event where the couple first crossed paths. Demi-Leigh has built a career in modeling and advocacy, frequently partnering with organizations that support widows and vulnerable children in her native South Africa.
