However, she was not ready to have a relationship with the Yankees legend. And they never become a serious couple. The report also suggests that Lara was rather a friend for Jeter.
“They were just friends—he tried to date her, but Lara wasn’t into it,” said someone familiar with Lara.
Currently, Jeter is a father of his two lovely daughters with his supermodel wife, Hannah Jeter. Lara Dutta, on the other hand, also married the Indian tennis star, Mahesh Bhupathi, in 2011.
