ST. LOUIS – As Albert Pujols returned to Busch Stadium this afternoon for the final chapter of his major league career, his wife Deidre took to Instagram to say she is still cheering for him despite recent news of their divorce.

Deidre, who is recovering from a surgery for brain cancer, shared a photo of a text between her and Albert showing his jersey hanging in the locker room. She also said they talked this morning about the day and prayed together to set the energy for the day.

She wrote she is excited to celebrate what will be an incredible baseball experience for our family, baseball fans and for the story of baseball as Albert is reunited with the Cardinals for the 2022 season in the place where it all began for their family years ago.

She also mentioned that despite the media attention about their personal lives, she would never miss out on an opportunity to send love, and blessings to someone who I have spent the majority of my life with and will forever be connected to.
