Family members

Swisher's father, Steve Swisher, played 509 games in the major leagues with the Chicago Cubs, St. Louis Cardinals, and San Diego Padres from 1974 through 1982. [62]

Swisher was very close to his paternal grandmother, Betty Lorraine Swisher, who raised him after his parents' divorce. She died from brain cancer in 2005; he has a memorial tattoo in her honor on his chest (her initials, surrounded by angel's wings and a halo.) [5] Swisher routinely looked up to the sky to honor his parents and grandparents. He also touched his lips and pointed to the sky in his grandmother's honor after he got a hit. In addition, he inked her initials on the bottom of his bats' knobs, and kissed the letters when he came to home plate. [5] To honor her further, he let his hair grow for eleven months and donated it to Pantene Beautiful Lengths, a program that creates free wigs for cancer patients. On May 19, 2007, he cut his hair with assistance from his father. [63] His website, nickswisher.net, is also dedicated to his grandmother. [64] After his grandfather, Don, died in November 2008, Swisher began adding his initials to his bats as well. He later stated that he planned on getting another tattoo on his back in the same style as his existing one after the 2009 season to honor his grandfather. [5]

Marriage

In August 2009, People reported that Swisher was dating actress JoAnna Garcia. [65] Swisher and García became engaged in May 2010, [66] and married on December 11, 2010, at the Breakers Hotel & Resort in Palm Beach, Florida. [67] The couple has two daughters, born in May 2013 [68] and June 2016. [69]

In 2011, Swisher guest starred as himself on two episodes of his wife's sitcom, Better with You. The first episode aired February 16 and the second aired February 23. [70] He also appeared in the episode "Perfect Week" of How I Met Your Mother , [71] which aired in February 2010.

Charity album

Swisher released a children's music album titled Believe on August 9, 2011. A percentage of the proceeds was to be donated to "Swish's Wishes", a charity started by Swisher for children who are facing health crises. The 12-song album features guest appearances from Bernie Williams and Barry Zito. All of the songs recorded on the album are cover songs that were selected by Swisher. [72] The album peaked at #3 on the chart of iTunes Children's Albums. [73]
