The Kentucky Derby weekend was certainly one to remember, and Jackson Dart along with Marissa Ayers made a striking impression.
At Louisville’s Churchill Downs on Saturday, the Giants quarterback sported a white Dolce & Gabbana suit featuring black pinstripes, complemented by a matching Bellissimo hat.
His girlfriend, Ayers, dazzled in a light blue dress from Nordstrom, accessorized with Prada pieces. She also mentioned to Sports Illustrated that she had a white and black hat acquired from a local store in New York.
The couple is in town to enjoy a significant weekend, highlighted by Friday’s Longines Kentucky Oaks event.
This Oaks race is celebrated as Japan’s top racing affair for 3-year-old mares and promotes breast cancer awareness with its “Pink Out” fashion theme.
Ayers, who models and serves as a ring girl for Most Valuable Promotions, shared an Instagram photo featuring her in a pink dress, complete with matching accessories for the occasion.
Dart and Ayers publicly confirmed their relationship in January, following a period of speculation. They’ve spent a busy offseason together since then.
They’ve made several public appearances already, including the NFL Honors Ceremony back in February, which marked their debut on the red carpet together. Dart was nominated for the 2025 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award, though it ultimately went to Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan, with Dart finishing fourth in the voting.
In April, Ayers reflected on Dart’s “transformational year” in a TikTok video for his 23rd birthday, expressing her gratitude. “I started sobbing yesterday while looking back and contemplating how much has changed in my life,” she said. “I’m really happy with who I am now and excited for what’s ahead this year.”
Dart is gearing up for his second season in the NFL as the Giants embrace the John Harbaugh era.
