GEORGE Kittle is so in love with his wife that he married her twice in three years.
The San Francisco 49ers star tied the knot with his wife Claire in 2019 a year after getting engaged.

And the pair renewed their vows two years later in a romantic ceremony in their backyard.
Claire is a fitness fanatic who’s passionate about bodybuilding.
She ran her own personal training classes and is often seen keeping fit on her Instagram page.
Claire has more than 100,000 followers on social media where she documents her lavish lifestyle.

She often posts pictures from NFL games watching Kittle in action.
The couple first met back in 2012 when they were at the University of Iowa as freshmen.
They were reportedly just friends for eight months before they began dating.
George proposed to Claire in the summer of 2018 with the help of the 49ers.
He told her that the team were shooting a piece about couples and wanted their help.
The plan almost went wrong when Kittle suffered a knee injury during a preseason game.
So instead they went Twin Lakes State Beach in Santa Cruz, where they were met by 49ers media members.
Claire wrote in her blog: “The photographer finally said, ‘Now, I want you to turn around and face George.
“So, I turn around and there he is … down on one knee and looking as handsome as ever.
“I had the biggest smile on my face and I literally couldn’t believe what was happening.
“Then, he said, ‘Claire Bear, I think it’s been long enough, will you marry me?’ It was such a George thing to say, and it was absolutely perfect.”
They eloped in 2019 to tie the knot in a ceremony that came as a surprise to many, including Claire.
She recalled: “I had always looked up to those people who ran away and eloped or just walked right up to the courthouse and left married.
“Thought it was so cool!
“We knew football was starting up again and Lord knows nothing but football gets done during football season.
“So we pulled the trigger and planned this wedding in a week!”
They planned a larger wedding for Italy in 2020 but those plans were thwarted due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Instead they married for a second time in Nashville in front of family and friends in 2021.
Claire is an ever-present at George’s NFL games.
And she will be keen to see her man reach the Super Bowl in Arizona this year.
