Background

Tim Hasselbeck was born on April 6, 1978, in Norfolk, MA. Tim hailed from an NFL family and followed in the footsteps of his father and older brother. In the case of his brother Matt, he followed him into the NFL and attended the same college and eventually earned the same starting position of the quarterback during his collegiate career.

Relationships

Tim is married to the TV personality Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who was his girlfriend at Boston College. They had their first date in 1997, which they claim lasted for about 14 hours. They had an instant spark and didn't want their date to end. They had dinner at a local restaurant and had their first kiss at the college football stadium. She thought her first date with her husband was fate. They got married in her hometown with a lovely ceremony for 200 guests.

His wife, Elisabeth, is famous for being a contestant on Survivor and for her traditionalist views as co-host of the Emmy-winning ABC show The View. The show has a cast of all females. They try to have females from different walks of life to provide viewers with different viewpoints. Rumors started popping up that Elisabeth's conservative outlook was becoming more and more unpopular with viewers, allegedly resulting in her termination from the show. Elisabeth joined Fox and Friends' right-wing morning news talk show more in line with her political beliefs. The couple has three kids, one daughter and two sons. On November 23, 2015, Elisabeth made a teary-eyed announcement that she was leaving television to focus on her family.

Career

Tim's tenure in the NFL lasted from 2002 to 2007, with six seasons on five different teams. Tim's net worth is 12 million dollars, an impressive number, though not as high as his brother Matt's 18 million. Tim's brotherly loyalty was put into question when he publicly doubted his brother's ability to carry the Colts to victory as the back-up quarterback when their starting player was injured. Though Tim respects Matt as a player and loves him as a brother, he cited his older brother's age as a significant hurdle to the team's success.

Before their marriage, when he was asked whether Elizabeth would win Survivor, he said that he had many hopes and that she would be a millionaire when he married her. The Hasselbecks seem to have a great sense of humor. Tim has said that he is better known as "the boyfriend of Elisabeth from Survivor" than as an NFL quarterback. He often comes across as having a quiet and reserved demeanor. Elisabeth, on the other hand, is a person who is always up to something. In 2010, the Hasselbecks performed a "job swap," requiring Elisabeth to provide live NFL commentary and Tim to improvise on the morning talk show with the rest of the bubbly, all-female panel of The View.
