Los Angeles Dodgers star Freddie Freeman and his wife Chelsea had a brush with pop superstardom on Sunday night!
The couple, who attended the 2024 Golden Globe Awards at the Beverly Hills Hotel, were seated “6 ft.” away from Taylor Swift (and her date for the evening, bestie Keleigh Sperry) — and they have the photobombing proof of it.
On her Instagram Story, the mother of three couldn’t hold back her excitement related to where they were seated and shared a few photos from the night.
“I keep getting tagged in this. Of course Freddie makes the Taylor pic and I’m blocked,” Chelsea wrote with a laughing-crying emoji alongside one image, which featured Swift posing in the forefront and her husband looking on in the background.

In another snap, she couldn’t contain her glee at nearly appearing in a picture of Swift with Selena Gomez.
“You guys …. This is the back of my head,” the Oscar de la Renta-clad Freeman wrote, with an arrow pointing to a spot in the shot. “We were sitting 6 ft from Taylor & Selena and I was too shy to ask for a pic. They were gorgeous in person.”

The Freemans are seemingly enjoying their time in Los Angeles, nearly two years after the All-Star first baseman — and Orange County native — was traded to the Dodgers after 12 seasons with the Atlanta Braves.

After signing with the Dodgers in March 2022, Freddie posted a thoughtful message to the organization and to fans on Instagram, writing, “A special day. Thank you to the Dodgers for welcoming my family in with open arms! #Home.”
Freeman had a .331 batting average — which was the third-best in the National League — and 29 home runs last season.
And Freeman wasn’t the only Dodger at the Golden Globes — his teammate Mookie Betts, who owns One Media/Marketing Group (OMG) production company, was also mingling with the Hollywood crowd that night (though, it seems, not with Swift).
