Zach Wilson has been the talk of the NFL the last week as he returned to the starting spot at QB1 for the New York Jets after Aaron Rodgers went down with an Achilles tear, ending his season. Since Wilson is now in charge of the Jets, one of football’s most anticipated teams heading into the season, you know his life would need to be dissected piece by piece.
That starts with his home life, and you know how the saying goes, “Behind every successful man stands a good woman.” Let’s meet Wilson’s “good woman,” girlfriend Nicolette Dellanno.
Nicolette Dellanno and Zach Wilson, Their History
Dating since June of 2022, Dellanno sure has made a splash in Wilson’s world. The two have not shied away from sharing their relationship, posting loads of stories across the many social media apps. They may have seemed to hit the ground running publicly, but it was needed for the couple.

The earliest days of their relationship were marred by rumors that Wilson was actually engaged in an ongoing sexual affair with his best friend’s mom. Dellanno has a strong faith-based background and appears to know how to react in situations that could be considered questionable.
Hailing from Colts Neck, New Jersey, 22-year-old Dellanno has graced the pages of clothing catalogs for several major companies, including Target. She attended Red Bank Catholic High School until graduation in 2020, when she enrolled in James Madison University. As a student at James Madison, she became a member of the Alpha Phi sorority and by all accounts had a successful college career.

Since college, she has become a social media star amassing more than 300k followers across her different platforms, including more than 244k followers on TikTok alone, where she shows off her skills as a former competitive dancer. Dellanno recently said she might be letting social media take a backseat to her “professional career.”
What Does The Future Hold?
Dellanno has made the most out of her life with Wilson. She has turned the explosion of her social media into a professional career as she is now one of the lead designers for the well-known dressmaker Morgan & Co. Adding dress designer to her long list of accolades looks like it should spell long-term success for Wilson’s girlfriend.

Wilson and Dellanno look to be one of the new “it” couples when it comes to celebrity athletes. Wilson even spent his early summer training with Dellanno and her family in Utah before reporting to Jets training camp, showing his dedication to their relationship. Since then, she hasn’t been far from his side, and she can always be seen sporting a gold chain with Wilson’s No. 2 on it.
