- Giancarlo Stanton has taken Asian Jayd Hung-Barnes to away games with him

Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton is reportedly involved in an “entangled” romance with a hospitality worker who has been “hanging around” with him since the start of the baseball season.
Page Six says Stanton34, has been dating Asian Jayd Hung-Barnes, from New Jersey, since 2022.
The 27-year-old recently deleted her TikTok and Instagram, but the publication claims she previously posted numerous snaps hinting at a “sneaky link” to Stanton, a slang term for a “situation.”
Apparently she is “accompanying him during baseball season, staying in elegant hotel suites that he discreetly reserves for her.”
Page Six says Hung-Barnes stayed at the Four Seasons in Baltimore in April, booked by Stanton, while the Yankees played the Orioles, a four-game series that the team lost 3-1.

Stanton reportedly paid him to stay at the Four Seasons in Baltimore for the Yankees vs. Orioles.
Hung-Barnes, pictured in 2020, reportedly referred to her relationship with Stanton as a “situation” before on social media; She recently deleted all of her platforms.
Stanton was poor in that stretch, like the rest of his team, but has otherwise played very well for the Yankees this season after struggling last year.
He has hit 13 home runs so far – ninth most in MLB – and has a .230 average with his RBI count at 29 in a rejuvenated offensive lineup following the arrival of Juan Soto in the offseason.
Hung-Barnes was also apparently in Florida in February, where the Yankees held spring training in preparation for the 2024 season.
Page Six also quotes a source as saying Stanton may have been uncomfortable with how much Hung-Barnes has been sharing their romance on social media before deleting two of her platforms.
“Giancarlo doesn’t like his business being out there, but AJ is reckless on social media,” a second source was quoted as saying by Page Six.
The report also claims that Stanton prefers to use Snapchat to talk to romantic interests “because it’s a very private app.”
Before Hung-Barnes, Stanton was last linked to actress Priscilla Quintana.
Stanton, the Yankees’ designated hitter, earns about $32 million a year after signing a 13-year, $325 million contract with the Miami Marlins in 2014.
Stanton and the Yankees will be next in action Thursday night in Los Angeles against the Angels.
