Jose Fernandez: His Final Loving Words To Pregnant Girlfriend Before Tragic Death

Jose Fernandez final words to pregnant girlfriend

This is so unbelievably tragic. Jose Fernandez wrote a heartbreaking message to his pregnant girlfriend, Carla Mendoza, just days before his untimely death. See the pic and get the details, here.

Jose Fernandez, 24, penned an unbelievably sweet tribute to his pregnant girlfriend, Carla Mendoza, just five days before he died tragically in a boating accident in Florida on Sept. 25. “I’m so glad you came into my life,” the late Miami Marlins pitcher captioned a black-and-white Instagram photo of Carla standing on a beach, holding her baby bump. “I’m ready for where this journey is gonna take us together. #familyfirst”

Our hearts are seriously broken. Carla and Jose had been together for a long time. At a September 2015 Marlins game, Carla ran onto the field and embraced Jose to celebrate him becoming the first pitcher to win his first 17 career home decisions. He was also a two-time MLB All-Star and the 2013 Rookie of the Year. It’s so awful to think about how promising Jose’s future looked, both professionally and personally, as he looked forward to becoming a proud father.
