When it comes to high-energy baseball moments, Kiké Hernández of the Los Angeles Dodgers is known for his clutch plays and infectious enthusiasm on the field. But some of his most remarkable wins haven’t happened under stadium lights—they’ve taken place off the diamond, thanks to his wife, Mariana Vicente Hernández. Behind the Dodgers’ fan favorite, there’s a partner whose own story is as compelling as any highlight reel.

Mariana Vicente Hernández was born in Puerto Rico in 1989, and long before meeting Kiké, she had made her mark in the world. Crowned Miss Universe Puerto Rico in 2010, she went on to place in the Top 10 at the global competition. But Mariana didn’t stop at pageantry. Her passion for the arts led her to acting, where she landed roles in productions like Hot Tub Time Machine 2 and American Horror Story . Yet, beyond the spotlight, she has maintained a grounded life, sharing moments of motherhood and family on Instagram, balancing her career with love and loyalty.
The story of Kiké and Mariana’s relationship began in 2015 in a modern fairy-tale fashion. Kiké first spotted Mariana on the big screen and, realizing they shared Puerto Rican roots and lived in Los Angeles, reached out to her online. Two months later, their casual lunch blossomed into friendship, and over six months, that friendship evolved into love. They navigated busy careers—his in professional baseball, hers in acting—while building a bond that would become unshakable.
In July 2017, Kiké proposed in the scenic setting of Big Sur, California, surprising Mariana during a hotel room video shoot. She said yes, and their love story continued with a beautiful wedding on December 8, 2018, in Puerto Rico. The ceremony was designed so every guest had a perfect view of the couple, with Mariana stunning in a champagne silk-organza gown and Kiké in a custom burgundy tuxedo. Their family grew in January 2021, with the arrival of their daughter, Penélope Isabel, a new chapter filled with joy and laughter.
Even as Kiké chases victories on the field—including the pursuit of another World Series ring—Mariana plays a key role behind the scenes. Recently, she explained to her Instagram followers why she sometimes skips Dodgers’ wives photo ops during the National League Championship Series. Between following Penélope and managing family responsibilities without extra help at games, she keeps her priorities in check while still being Kiké’s anchor through the intensity of October baseball.
Looking ahead, Mariana has shared that the family plans to spend their offseason on vacation trips, while preparing for the arrival of their next child. She continues to act, model, and create content, all while nurturing a loving home. Together, Kiké and Mariana showcase a partnership where love, timing, and shared dedication matter just as much as any professional achievement. For fans, their story is a reminder that behind every big play, there’s often quiet, steadfast support—and in Kiké’s case, it’s Mariana who helps make it all possible.
