With more than 40,000 Instagram followers and counting, the New Jersey-bred Dellanno regularly shares photos of her nights out with friends, as well snapshots from modeling shoots.

In recent images, Dellanno can be seen sporting a No. 2 necklace, an apparent reference to Wilson’s Jets number.

She’s TikTok famous

In addition to her impressive Instagram following, Dellanno boasts nearly 250,000 fans on TikTok, where she frequently stars in playful dance videos with friends.

When was she first spotted with Zach Wilson?

In June 2022, when the former BYU product was preparing for his second season in New York, Wilson stepped out for a Yankees game with Dellanno.

The twosome sat next to each other as the Yankees defeated the Rays, 4-3, and even attempted the wave as it went around the stadium.

Prior to his romance with Dellanno, Wilson was in a long-term relationship with Abbey Gile, who made headlines in July 2022 after accusing the quarterback of sleeping with a friend of his mother’s.

Wilson laughed off the wild dating rumors a short time later, quipping on Instagram: “Took the boys to @gozzerranchclub in Idaho before camp! Poor cell service…what I miss?”

The former second-overall pick is now preparing for his third year with the Jets, who traded for Aaron Rodgers in April 2023.

Rodgers, who spent the first 18 seasons of his career with the Packers, stated in April 2023 how he intends to help Wilson.

“I feel like part of my role here is to help him get his confidence back,” Rodgers said. “The team believes in him. That’s one question I asked: ‘How do you feel about Zach?’ Because I care about his feelings and I care about how he’s viewed. They really believe in him. They think he can be special — and so do I.”
