Who Is Jared Goff's Girlfriend, Christen Harper?
Football fans will already be aware of Jared Goff, the Los Angeles Rams quarterback with a near spotless field record. Everybody else will note he's easy on the eyes, too. Although Goff keeps his personal life under wraps, in early 2019, details leaked out that he might be following in the footsteps of Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes with his own model girlfriend cheering him on from the sidelines. The duo was papped by TMZ and Goff notably didn't correct reporters who referred to the gorgeous Christen Harper as his "girlfriend."
A month previous, the model had seemingly confirmed reports they were dating when, as the New York Post advised, Harper posted an Instagram Story of her arriving at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in preparation for Super Bowl 53, in which Goff was playing, of course. She also happened to be donning Rams merchandise for the occasion. Sports Gossip reported the NFL superstar wanted to keep the relationship private, but we can still take a closer look at Harper herself regardless.
Christen Harper is an established model and actress
Christen Harper is an in-demand model, who's represented by Wilhelmina as per her Instagram page. She's appeared in high-profile campaigns for the likes of Guess and even auditioned for Sports Illustrated, which, as Harper explained on social media, was her dream job. She admitted how the magazine "meant so much more" to her growing up because Harper was frequently told she'd never make it as a model in the industry due to her curves. "Instead of shrinking myself down into an unrealistic standard for my own body, I chose to have faith that I was enough," she noted.
The brunette beauty is also an aspiring actress, with several credits on her IMDb page to date. Most recently, she appeared as the titular A.I. in sci-fi movie Auggie. Harper also featured prominently in Hard Knocks, HBO's docuseries that followed NFL players' home lives with their loved ones.
Jared Goff's girlfriend is no stranger to the sports world
Jared Goff's lady is proud to cheer her man on whenever he plays, frequently posting shots of her wearing the requisite merchandise, too. However, she's got previous in the sports world, with big brother Shane being drafted to the NHL in 2016. Christen Harper shared the news on Instagram at the time, gushing, "So happy to be able to watch you accomplish your dreams and do what you love." He played for the Florida Panthers in the 2016-17 season and was later signed by Swedish club Örebro HK of the SweHL, followed by Brynas IF, in 2020, as per Hockey DB.
According to a tip sent into Sports Gossip, Harper dated another athlete prior to Goff. Apparently, she was involved with Andrew Rohrbach, a former Colorado Rockies minor league prospect, for at least a couple of years. Evidently cheering from the sidelines comes naturally to Harper.
