Former Alabama Crimson Tide legend and NFL MVP Shaun Alexander has long been celebrated for his dominance on the field. But these days, it’s his life off the field that’s capturing attention — and inspiring awe.
According to reports, Alexander and his wife Valerie, who married in 2002, have built not only a strong marriage but also a remarkably large family. Together, they are parents to 12 living children, with one infant tragically passing away at just two months old. Now, Valerie is reportedly expecting baby number 14, a milestone that has left fans both stunned and impressed.
A Family Man Beyond the Gridiron
While most remember Alexander for his dazzling runs with the Seattle Seahawks — including his 2005 NFL MVP season and Super Bowl appearance — his post-football legacy has been defined by faith, family, and fatherhood.
Friends close to Alexander say he has embraced the challenges of raising a large family with the same dedication he once brought to the game. He often credits his Christian faith as the foundation for his family life and values.
Fans React
News of the Alexanders’ growing family quickly sparked a wave of reactions from both Alabama and NFL fans:
- “Good thing Shaun got that NFL money‼ Roll Tide, legend!”
- “Fourteen kids? That man is really the GOAT in more ways than one.”
- “Shaun Alexander: MVP on the field, Hall of Fame dad off it.”
Roll Tide Forever
For Crimson Tide supporters, Alexander’s story is just another reason to celebrate one of the greatest backs to ever wear the Alabama uniform. His football accolades are cemented in history, but his legacy now shines just as brightly through his ever-growing family.
With Valerie expecting their 14th child, Shaun Alexander continues to prove that greatness isn’t only measured in touchdowns and trophies — but also in love, resilience, and family.
Roll Tide, Shaun. You’re the GOAT. 🐘🔥🐐
