Reese stated, “I wouldn’t even be able to get a sandwich with that [income]. I wouldn’t be able to eat. I wouldn’t be able to live.”
Reese also shared that she relies on multiple streams of income – including endorsements and brand ambassador deals – to keep her lifestyle afloat. Her confession highlighted the financial reality for many female athletes, sparking conversation on the pay disparity in women’s sports.
