SUMMARY
- Jimmy Butler, a top gun in the NBA has been linked to several women in the past.
- Right now, it seems as though the Heat forward is in a relationship with Kaitlin Nowak.
Jimmy Butler has emerged as one of the biggest superstars in the NBA over the years. His excellence on the court has garnered a lot of attention and the 6x NBA All-Star is somehow one of the hottest topics consistently. While his on-court life had been on full display, his personal life has been quite private. Little do people know that Butler may not be single since he is associated with Kaitlin Nowak.
Before her, the Miami Heat star dated Charmaine Piula, a former player for the Southern Utah Thunderbirds who was last known to be a commercial line underwriting administrator. He was also linked to Shay Mitchell, popularly known for her work on the hit television series Pretty Little Liars. He has also been associated with Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus as well.
It seems like Jimmy Butler met Kaitlin Nowak in 2019, however, their romance was a mere rumor back then. But in 2020, the two of them made an appearance at Super Bowl LIV along with family and friends. This voided the speculations and gave some sort of confirmation that they were an item. Unfortunately, the exact timeline of their relationship remains unknown.
Kaitlin Nowak is a budding influencer and model
Kaitlin Nowak came into this world on December 13, 1990, to entrepreneur Natalie Nowak and Michael Nowak, who was known as a businessman. She was born in Nebraska and she also has Polish roots. Kaitlin was brought up as a believer in the Christian faith, but it is unclear if she still follows it. Just like the NBA star, she also found success in her own ways. Nowak is known for being an entrepreneur, blogger, social media influencer, and model as well.
The 34-year-old attended Omaha High School which is based in Nebraska before she went on to pursue an undergraduate degree. Kaitlin enrolled herself at the University of Nebraska. There she completed courses in advertising, public relationships, and applied communication, as per various sources. There isn’t much information available other than that since she chooses to stay private on social media and away from the limelight.
Jimmy Butler and Kaitlin Nowak welcomed their only child in 2019
While news surrounding Jimmy Butler’s relationship with Kaitlin Nowak came out in 2019, they also had their only child that year. Rylee was born in October 2019 and Butler was the first to reveal this to the public. It was during the start of the 2019-20 season when the Heat star took some time away from the game to witness her birth.
Jimmy and Kaitlin have been extremely protective of their child. He has stated that it is hard being a celebrity parent as well. During an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Butler said, “I think one of the hardest things about being a celebrity is that you can’t go be a parent from time to time. I hate that I can’t take my daughter to the zoo because everyone wants to talk basketball or take a photo. To my daughter, I’m just her dad, she doesn’t know any different.”
“Ahh. The things you do for your kids!”

Butler has never posted anything about Rylee on either of his social media accounts. This is mainly because he chooses to keep her away from the limelight, especially to avoid any sort of potential drama from affecting her. The same goes with Kaitlin as sources claim. Nowak has a private Instagram account that is only accessible to close ones.
