One look at Sasha Lee Dindayal and you’re in love. At least that what happened when San Diego Chargers’ tight end Antonio Gates met Sasha in 2007. Dindayal, now a model and musician, was born in Trinidad and Tobago but grew up in Canada. The ebony beauty started modeling in 2004 and made a name for herself appearing in videos with some of the hottest urban acts in the game. David Banner Jay-Z, and Usher all featured Sasha in videos for some of their biggest hits. If you’re not a hip-hop fan, you may know Dindayal by her married name. Four years after meeting Antonio Gates, the handsome couple got married. Sasha Lee Dindayal became Sasha Gates, another beautiful WAG from the NFL.
Got Lucky in Love
Mrs. Gates was unlucky in love before meeting her future hall of fame tight end. She was rumored to be dating director and screenwriter Hype Williams and was engaged to the current host of ESPN’s SportsNation Marcellus Wiley. For Antonio Gates, it must have been awkward to be teammates on the Chargers with someone who was engaged to your wife, but Antonio and Sasha made it work. The couple has started a family and welcome their first child earlier this year. Congratulations on the new addition.
Sasha and Antonio Gates have some advice for keeping a marriage fresh under the pressure of starting a family and being in the spotlight. They try to keep it simple. Sasha Gates told Haute Living, “Remember the things you used to do when you first started dating, and how it made each of you feel. Put on a nice outfit, do your makeup, and feel sexy for your man. When you’re confident and feel good, he will too!” Antonio told the magazine, it’s important to Improve together and learn new things together. He added that seeing each other grow is “so romantic.”
