New York Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton is dating a hospitality worker with a history of imprudent social media activity, sources tell Page Six exclusively.
We’re told Stanton has been “tangled up” with Asiana Jayd “AJ” Hung-Barnes since 2022 following his breakup from actress Priscilla Quintana.
One insider says the New Jersey native “crashes” at the MLB player’s Midtown East apartment and is “tagging along during the baseball season, staying in fancy hotel suites that he discreetly books for her,” including the Four Seasons in Baltimore in April when the Yankees played the Orioles.

Page Six obtained a screenshot of a photo from Hung-Barnes’ now-deleted TikTok account showing her inside what we’re told is Stanton’s luxe Manhattan pad in April.
Later that month, she posted a picture of a handwritten note that read, “Aj ♥’s G” on a JW Marriott notepad, which she captioned, “That I do.”

“Giancarlo doesn’t like his business being out there,” a second source tells Page Six, “but AJ is reckless on social media.”
The pair notably do not follow each other on Instagram, but our first insider says they talk “on Snapchat daily when they’re apart,” and the designated hitter “can’t wait to check her Snaps after his games.”
The second source tells us that Stanton, who joined the Yanks in 2018 from the Miami Marlins, has long “used Snapchat as his primary method of communication with dating prospects because it’s such a private app.”
