Merri Kelly Hannity Followed Her Brother’s Footsteps
Sean Hannity and Jill Rhodes’ daughter, Merri Kelly, was born in 2002 and has an elder brother, Sean Patrick Hannity. Perhaps Merri was drawn by her brother playing tennis, so she most probably followed Sean Patrick’s footsteps. Sean might be teaching his sister some tricks about tennis as well.
On Oct 18, 2015, Merri Kelly participated in the Nassau girls tennis championship at Eisenhower Park. She played a match against Hewlett’s Kseniya Zonova. The following year, in 2016, Jill and Sean’s daughter defeated Courtney Kowalsky 6-3, 1-6, 6-4, and won the Nassau County Singles Title. Merri’s family could not be more proud of her.
However, beautiful Merri is not a familiar face in the spotlight. Her parents are probably providing a subtle life for her. They are doing so that she doesn’t get disturbed by the media and have a great focus on her tennis career.
