Brea Beal’s Boyfriend: Jaycee Horn
Brea Beal is presently seeing Jaycee Horn of the Panthers. In 2019 and 2020, the two were students at South Carolina, where Horn played football for the Gamecocks for two seasons. Horn shifted his focus after Will Muschamp was fired, choosing to forego the rest of the NCAA season to focus on getting ready for the 2021 NFL Draft. In his season 3 as a cornerback for the Carolina Panthers, he was chosen with the 8th overall pick that year. His performance on the field increased in 2022 when he had 53 tackles for the Panthers, who finished the season 7-10.
Brea Beal’s Relationship status
In 2022, after defeating Geno Auriemma’s dominant UConn team to win the NCAA title, Beal shared a photo of Horn with the trophy and dubbed him a “4Lifer” in the comment. According to reports, the South Carolina alumni began a relationship in 2021. On December 26 of that year, precisely 1 month following Horn’s 22nd birthday, Beal announced their love to the world on Instagram. Beal is seen in the black-and-white photo cleaning Horn’s hair in the washbasin. On their individual Instagram profiles, Beal and Horn each have highlights of photos they’ve taken of one another and together; however, while Beal has posts about her and Horn, he has only postings about his sports career. Moreover, Beal seems to be wearing a diamond chain around her neck engraved with the initials J.H., which Horn referred to be his in a comment.
Brea Beal’s Early Life
Kevin Beal & Nicole Adamson welcomed Beal into the world on November 8, 2000. She trained for basketball as a child under the direction of her dad, who competed for UTEP in college and was motivated by Maya Moore. Before concentrating on basketball, she also participated in swimming and gymnastics. Beal entered the Midwest Elite Amateur Athletic Union program in the eighth grade. She gained local notoriety as being one of the best eighth-graders in the nation.
Brea Beal’s Career
Beal is anticipated to go in the first round of the 2019 WNBA Draft. She will be selected No. 7 overall by the Indiana Fever, who will also likely select Aliyah Boston at No. 1 overall. During her four years there, she aggregated 6.1 points, five rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game. In her senior year, she also set a career-high for three-point shooting, making 38% of her attempts from beyond the arc. She’s a fantastic defender whenever it comes to avoiding perimeter players from scoring to the fullest of their abilities, but as ESPN made clear, she doesn’t naturally fit into a defined position like her colleagues do.
