Xavier Worthy, the Kansas City Chiefs’ rookie wide receiver, and his fiancée, U.S. track and field star Tia Jones, are kicking off an exciting new chapter in their lives.
Just days after a tough turn of events for Jones, who missed the chance to compete in the Paris Olympics due to an ACL injury, the couple celebrated a milestone by purchasing their first home together in Kansas.
Jones shared a heartwarming post on social media, standing beside Worthy in front of their new house, describing the experience as a wonderful moment of creating a stable foundation for their future together.
Finding Strength Through Adversity
For Tia Jones, 2024 has been a turbulent year.
Known for her speed and agility on the track, Jones was a top contender in hurdling events, and in February, she matched the indoor 60m hurdles world record of 7.67 seconds at the USATF Indoor Championships.
But her Olympic dreams were put on hold when she collided with crash pads during the same meet, resulting in a serious ACL injury.
Missing out on the Paris Olympics was a major blow, but Jones has remained resilient, focusing on recovery and her future.
Building a Life Together: A New Home
Worthy and Jones have chosen to turn their focus toward building a stable and loving environment as they plan their future.
The couple’s new Kansas home marks an important step toward establishing their life together.
The new residence represents not only a place to live but also a symbol of their commitment to one another and their dreams of starting a family.
