What To Know About Hallmark’s As Luck Would Have It Star JoAnna Garcia Swisher

While she is a famous actor, JoAnna Garcia Swisher’s husband Nick Swisher is famous too — he’s a retired professional baseball player who played for the Yankees. The couple met in 2009 and were married about a year later. Garcia Swisher told Us Weekly in 2018 about her great first impression of the athlete, and how he was very open with her. “He was like, ‘I’m only going to be dating you and you are the only one and until you believe that I’ll be here reminding you of that,’” Garcia Swisher told the outlet. “And that just really struck me like he’s in it to win it.” The actor and baseball player have two daughters.

Unfortunately, Garcia Swisher has suffered losses in her family. Her father passed away in November 2019, her grandmother passed away in February 2021, and her mother passed away in March 2021. She spoke with People in April 2021 about how difficult mourning can be. “It’s a gaping hole,” Garcia Swisher said. “But I really believe that it’s not what happens to you, it’s what happens for you. And even in their passing, I know that it’s not for nothing.” The “Sweet Magnolias” actor also said that she doesn’t hide how she’s feeling from her children, even on the bad days.
