Mets star Francisco Lindor’s podcaster wife is on Zohran Mamdani’s inaugural committee

Katia Reguero Lindor, the talented violinist wife of New York Mets’ standout shortstop Francisco Lindor, has recently made headlines for her involvement in Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s inaugural committee. Despite flying under the radar initially, Katia’s role as the host of “The Unaparent Podcast” on the committee has not gone unnoticed.

A vocal advocate for social justice and progressive causes, Katia supported Mamdani during the election, emphasizing the importance of politicians who fight for immigrants, artists, and workers. She made it clear that supporting such causes aligns with her values, even though she comes from a different economic background. Her message resonated with many, highlighting the need for a more equitable society.

Katia’s inclusion in Mamdani’s inaugural committee, alongside notable figures like Cynthia Nixon and John Turturro, signifies a diverse and inclusive approach to the transition of power in New York City. Mamdani expressed his gratitude for the committee members, describing them as some of the most creative minds in the city, dedicated to creating an inauguration that truly represents the people of New York.

A classically trained violinist, Katia met her husband Francisco, affectionately known as “Mr. Smile,” when he reached out to her on Instagram. Their relationship blossomed, leading to a marriage in 2021, the same year Francisco signed a lucrative $341 million, 10-year deal with the Mets. The couple now has three children, inspiring Katia to start a parenting podcast where she shares her experiences and insights.

Despite their busy schedules, both Katia and Francisco remain committed to their respective passions and causes. While Lindor’s agent and the Mets’ spokesperson declined to comment on Katia’s involvement with Mamdani’s committee, the significance of her presence cannot be overlooked. As New York prepares for a new era under Mamdani’s leadership, Katia’s voice and advocacy continue to make a difference in the community.
