Born on April 11, 2003, she’s a native of Georgia and has moved houses 17 times so far. She confirmed this back in January 2025 through a candid TikTok clip. She also discussed her family, revealing that her parents split when she was in sixth grade. Ayers also has an older sister who’s calmer and doesn’t match the model’s “crazy” energy. 

Further, Marissa dedicated 11 years of her life to gymnastics but gave up the sport after feeling burned out. She later transitioned to cheerleading in high school. According to her LinkedIn profile, the Instagram model studied public relations and advertising at the University of Alabama from 2021 to 2025. In her graduation post, she described Alabama as her “sweetest home.”

How did Jaxson Dart and Marissa Ayers meet? 

Jaxson Dart and Marissa Ayers were first spotted together at a Halloween party in October 2025, according to Sports Illustrated. The rumors only grew louder a few weeks later during the Giants’ road game against quarterback Drake Maye and the New England Patriots on December 1. The former gymnast not only turned up for the game, but the crowd at Gillette Stadium also saw her next to Dart’s mother, Kara. 

Additionally, their dinner date after a few days fanned the flame further, but that’s not all. Ayers soft-launched her relationship when she posted photos wearing a New York Giants jersey. The most interesting part? The picture appears to be from the quarterback’s apartment. By late December, the clues became even harder to miss.

She is famous on social media for posting “Get Ready With Me” videos and outfit looks. Besides her online success, Ayers gained more fans when she stepped into the boxing world in May 2025. She started working as a ring card girl for Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian’s company, Most Valuable Promotions.

She announced the project on TikTok, with many fans congratulating her on this new chapter in her modeling career. Two months later, in July 2025, Marissa rose to fame during the Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano fight at Madison Square Garden. The bout was broadcast on Netflix and watched by millions. Later, the model shared her disbelief online regarding her newfound success. 

“I was just on Netflix,” she said in a TikTok clip from that day. “I can’t even believe that. … Part of history for women’s boxing. It was so cool. The vibes, the energy, it was so loud. It was so much fun.”
