Let's Hear It for the 'Girls!' Astros' Wives Throw a Fash Bash for Charity

Let's Hear It for the 'Girls!' Astros' Wives Throw a Fash Bash for Charity

Samantha Scott, Reagan Bregman and Kara McCullers

DOZENS OF SAVVY socialites and shoppers gathered at Tootsies to sip and shop during an event hosted by Kat Pressly and Janelise Maldonado, wives of Astros stars.


The afternoon benefited Girls Inc., a nonprofit that gives school-age girls enrichment opportunities such as day camps and seminars, and encourages them to be "strong, smart and bold." The Houston CEO, Treopia Cannon, stopped by to thank attendees and tell them a little more about the organization.

Dressed in summertime shades of green, pink and white — and, of course, Astros orange and blue — the fashionable femmes included Reagan Bregman, Kara McCullers, and Astros execs Paula Harris and Anita Sehgal. Raffle winner Donna Lewis received four club-level seats for an upcoming game!

Jacob Hilton, a.k.a. Travid Halton, at home in his kitchen, where he enjoys cooking as a form of therapy.

PINK FLOYD'S THE Wall. Sinatra’s In the Wee Small Hours. Beyonce’s Lemonade. Three divergent examples of the album as a cathartic, psychological, conceptual work, meant to be experienced in a single sitting. Houston singer-songwriter Jacob Hilton, 37, who records as Travid Halton, a portmanteau of his mother and father’s names, might balk at being mentioned in such company. (This is a thoroughly unpretentious man, who describes himself as an “archaeologist turned singer-songwriter.”)

How did you get to where you are today? The present moment is a combined history of my family, my time as an athlete, my passion for learning, and my desire to see the world be better. I grew up as a successful springboard and platform diver, however, an injury caused me to seek alternative treatments to heal my body. In that process, I discovered the power of yoga, exercise, meditation, mindset, and nutrition. This holistic approach eventually led me to open a Pilates and cycling studio called DEFINE body & mind. I opened studios around the nation, and after selling most of my business between 2017-2019, I was ready to explore how I could make an even greater impact on the wellbeing of our community. In 2023, I started actively working on a brand new multi-family/apartment concept called, Define Living. The idea focused on offering health and wellness services within a beautiful apartment setting to increase the wellbeing of our residents. Having a strong sense of community is the number one factor in living a happy life, so why not build a community where daily fitness, cooking classes, and social connection are the norm? We opened Define Living in March of 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with how things are being received. We are already looking at building more concepts like this in the Houston area and beyond.
