“They May Not Believe Me When I Tell Them” – When MLB Great Derek Jeter Revealed the True Reason for Partaking in HBO Documentary

In the last few years of his historic baseball career, Jeter became a part of HBO’s documentary about him, Derek Jeter 3K, after having 3000 hits in his career as a New York Yankees player. Shortly after the release of 3K, Jeter revealed the real reason he made that documentary with HBO.

Jeter reveals the reason for making his documentary

When Jeter participated in his HBO documentary in 2011, he still hadn’t met his now wife, Hannah Jeter (formerly Davis). But that does not mean that he didn’t want to have a family of his own. Hence, while giving an interview about his documentary showing his journey to reach the milestone of 3000 hits, Jeter also revealed the actual reason behind being a part of it.

What did Jeter say?

“I was approached about the opportunity to do this documentary. And it’s not that I’ve done this before, and I don’t know if I’m comfortable with it. But I’m always jealous of other players when their kids come down and in the clubhouse and on the field. If and when I have kids, they won’t be a part of this experience. They won’t ever have the opportunity to see it, so at least I’ll have it for my kids because they may not believe me when I tell them.”

Jeter wants to give his girls a normal life

Jeter has talked before that the girls know parts about his career. But he still wants them to look at him only as their father and not as a baseball legend. Jeter’s daughters, Bella, River, and Story, all got the taste of the charm their father spread when they went to the Yankee Stadium together. Although, even then, his daughters cared about the promised ice cream to them and nothing else.
