Who is Kathy Leutner?
Kathy was born in Virginia USA on 13 December 1987, so under the zodiac sign of Sagittarius and holding American nationality – she is a popular model, but really came into the spotlight after she began dating National Hockey League (NHL) player Sidney Crosby.
Early life and education
Even though people wanted to know more about Kathy’s background story and her early life, she’d rather keep her personal matters to herself. She grew up with her parents John and Judith Leutner and her sister Jennifer Ann Dybsky in Virginia – Kathy had a dream of becoming a model from a very early age, so after she matriculated from a local high school, she decided to pursue her modelling career rather than to chase a college degree.
Career
Kathy’s career began at the moment she was noticed by a modelling agent at a store when she was 18 – she began shoots for numerous magazines soon afterwards, and is most popular for the work she’s done with the “Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition” magazine, while also posing for outfitters Abercrombie & Fitch.
Personal life
Just as she doesn’t share much about her early life and her childhood, Kathy is quite secretive about her love life as well. However, one cannot date a person as famous as professional Canadian hockey player Sidney Crosby without the public knowing about it.
Since neither of the two have shared much about their lives together, and they rarely go out in public together, there is not much known about them except for what the rumors say – it is speculated that they began dating in 2008 and separated in 2010, however, it seems that they couldn’t live without each other, and therefore quickly got back together – it also appears that neither them had a long relationship before they started dating.
Although they have been dating for 11 years, they haven’t married and don’t have any kids – there are rumors about the couple being engaged, however, they have no social media accounts on which they could flaunt their engagement or marriage.
Who is Sidney Crosby?
Sidney Patrick Crosby was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada on 7 August 1987, so under the zodiac sign of Leo and holding Canadian nationality, and is just half a year older than Kathy. Sidney is currently the captain of the professional hockey team the Pittsburgh Penguins which competes in the National Hockey League (NHL). He goes by the nickname “Sid the Kid” and is regarded as one of the best hockey players of all time.
He grew up with his parents Troy and Trina and his younger sister Taylor – his father Troy played in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) and one can say that his father is to be credited for Sidney’s passion towards hockey, as he began playing it when he was only two years old. He attended Astral Drive Junior High School and is said to have had all ‘A’ grades, with the vice-principal of the school describing Sidney as ‘an amazing role model, who was really kind to students in the learning center, and to special needs kids’. He switched schools when he was 15, only to be part of the Shattuck-Saint Mary’s school’s hockey program.

He first played in the NHL in the 2005-2006, season and managed to make a record of 102 points, then won the Art Ross Trophy in the next season when he scored 120 points and became the only teenager and therefore the youngest player who won the scoring title in the NHL. During the 2006-2007 season, he won the Hart Memorial Trophy and was the NHL’s most valuable player (MVP) while he also won the Lester B. Pearson Award, voted by all league players. During the next season, he got to the Finals of the Stanley Cup with his Penguins but they were defeated by the Detroit Red Wings, then faced them again in the finals next year when they managed to win, and Sidney made history by becoming the youngest captain in NHL to win the Stanley Cup. In the 2009-2010 season, he won the Mark Messier Leadership Award and the Maurice Richard Trophy for being the highest goals scorer in the NHL. Sidney had an accident in the beginning of 2011 when he suffered a concussion leading to him almost not playing during the 2011-2012 season. He subsequently won the Hart Memorial Trophy, another Art Ross Trophy for scoring 104 points, and Ted Lindsay Award all in 2014, and the Stanley Cup with his team in 2016 and 2017, and is now said to be one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players of all time.
Sidney is also playing for Canada – he led the national team to victory at the 2005 World Junior Championship, was the captain of Team Canada at the Winter Olympics in 2014 which won gold, and led Canada to gold in the 2016 world championships, as well as being named as MVP by all of his team members.
Sidney’s current net worth is said to be around $55 million, while he earns nearly $5 million per year – even though that is quite a sum of money, he is only the seventh highest earning hockey player in the NHL. He is not the kind of person to flaunt the money he has – if you could see Sidney in the street, you would think that he is just an average person and that is exactly how he wants to be thought of. Just as Andy O’Brien, his fitness trainer who worked with him for over 15 years, said – ‘He wants to be one of the guys and doesn’t really seek to separate himself or get special treatment in any way… He takes a lot of enjoyment in the regular, simple things in life and having a normal, ordinary routine.’
