Boston Red Sox third baseman, Kevin Youkilis, is engaged to marry New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's sister, Julie Brady. 

Youkilis first met Julie Brady, who is one of three Brady sisters, at a Patriots party after the team was knocked out of the 2010 playoffs, according to the Boston Herald, which first reported the story. 


Brady is a schoolteacher with a 5-year-old daughter and has never been married, according to The Boston Herald. In 2008, Youkilis had a marriage ceremony with Enza Sambataro, who had dated Ben Affleck, but the pair reportedly never filed the necessary paperwork to make the union legal. They split up two years later. 


Youkilis was seen on the field with the Brady family during the Patriots' Saturday team photo session prior to their Super Bowl XLVI loss to the Giants. 


Surprisingly, this wouldn't be the first time that high-profile athletes have married into each other's families. Green Bay Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk is married to the sister of Denver Broncos backup quarterback Brady Quinn, Laura (who's famous for wearing a split jersey of the two when Hawk played for Ohio State and Quinn was at Notre Dame).
