"The girls go through the back-door entrance in the Trump World Tower to avoid the paparazzi” - Derek Jeter silences rumors that he shielded his hookups from the limelight during his time with Yankees
Hall of Famer and former New York Yankees legend Derek Jeter has not been limelight-friendly throughout his life. He has purposely steered clear of the spotlight and maintained a safe distance from controversies. Among all the Jeter-related controversies that have occurred over the past 20 years, the one that garnered the most attention was the one involving his one-night hookups.
In 2011, a "New York Post" piece was published claiming Derek sent autographed items to his one-night stands. Furthermore, it was revealed that Derek took additional measures to keep his hookups out of the spotlight by sneaking them in and out of Trump Tower through the back entrance to evade the media personnel.
Per the news outlet, one of Jeter's friends opened up, saying:
"Derek has girls stay with him at his apartment in New York, and then he gets them a car to take them home the next day. Waiting in his car is a gift basket containing signed Jeter memorabilia, usually a signed baseball.”
He added:
"He’ll occasionally take girls to a restaurant. He has a couple of restaurants that he goes to that aren’t trendy."
"I know he’s been dating multiple girls. He likes a hole in the wall, or he likes a place that his friends own. He’s very cautious. He’ll only go out on off-nights."
"The girls go through the back-door entrance in the Trump World Tower to avoid the paparazzi."

"It’s a story that became larger than life. People keep regurgitating this story that never happened. Never happened."
