Lamar Jackson, the Baltimore Ravens’ quarterback, is known for keeping his personal life private. Despite staying out of the limelight, it is known that Jackson has a long-time supporter in his life—Jamie Taylor, reportedly his “high school” sweetheart.
Jamie Taylor, who has maintained a low profile, attended Boynton Beach Community High School where Jackson was her senior. Reports suggest she has an African-American background and is a career-oriented individual exploring multiple fields. She has collaborated with major fashion and style brands such as Vogue, Esquire, Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, and GQ, and has worked with renowned photographers like Steven Klein, Annie Leibovitz, and Richard Burbridge.
Taylor graduated from Louisville University, where Jackson also played and won the Heisman Trophy in 2016. Their relationship began in 2017 while they were both in college. Taylor has kept their relationship private but gained attention in a rare interview in 2019 with Clifton Brown for the Baltimore Ravens’ website, where she shared how Jackson taught her to handle criticism. She noted, “He’s taught me how to handle criticism. I used to get mad when I’d read stuff. Then I’d look at him, and he’s just fine. He says, ‘Let them do the talking. You don’t have to say anything. Just show them.’”
Jackson and Taylor share a strong bond, though they have not yet committed to marriage. Jackson has a daughter, born in January 2021, but he has not disclosed details about her birth or her mother. When his daughter Milan turned one year old on January 4, 2022, Jackson’s birthday wish for her went viral. His Halloween post featuring Milan dressed as Pebbles from the Flintstones also garnered significant attention.
