Justin Turner is an American professional baseball third baseman for the Boston Red Sox of Major League Baseball (MLB).
Justin Turner sister, Jillian Turner, is a baker hailing from California. Jillian is the younger sister of the MLB star.
The former Dodgers star, Justin Turner, was raised by a father who was a part-time baseball coach. So, the love for baseball was instilled in Justin from childhood.
With teammate Cody Bellinger, Turner had lifted the World Series Title in 2020, and in 2023, both players bid their goodbyes to the Dodgers. A fan favorite, Turner signed a one-year contract with the Red Sox earlier this year.
Recently, the first baseman was recognized at the L.A. Sports Award event for his charitable contributions.
The 38 year old won the 2022 Community Athlete of The Year honor, adding to the list of many awards he has won throughout his career.
Justin Turner Sister Jillian Turner Runs Online Bakery Shop
Justin Turner’s sister, Jillian Turner, runs her bakery shop named “Jilly’s Sweets & Treats.”
Before becoming a baker, Jillian worked at Legacy Group, which represents her brother. The two siblings shared a tight-knit bond since their childhood days.
Unlike her brother, Jillian was never caught by the sports bug. Instead, the younger sister of the baseball star would find amusement in her brother getting all the baseball predictions correct.
Once the TV would turn on, the sibling duo would spend their day watching baseball games, and Justin would lock in his predictions for the game, making Jillian think he was some sort of psychic.
