Kate Upton and Justin Verlander were seen out and about in public again. Upton and Verlander were included in the celebrity nude photo-hacking scandal that has hit Hollywood, recently. The couple reportedly visited Ground Zero, the site that was destroyed in the September 11 attacks.

According to the Daily Mail, the Sports Illustrated model and her Detroit Tigers' boyfriend paid tribute to the victims of the September 11 attacks in New York. They went to see Ground Zero on October 7. "Looking solemn, the pair walked around the site through a still in construction section," the website wrote. Following the Tigers' defeat to Baltimore Orioles in the third game of the American League Division Series (ALDS), Upton and Verlander apparently flew to New York.

Upton donned a white three-quarter sleeve shirt and a pair of black skinny pants. Her hair was pinned back. She carried a small shoulder bag. Upton completed her getup with a pair of sunglasses. Verlander, on the other hand, sported a gray collared sweatshirt rolled to the elbow and a pair of trousers. He was also wearing sunglasses.

Upton and Verlander have kept a low profile after their personal and intimate moments were leaked online by an iCloud hacker. Upton and Verlander were just two of the many celebrities, which include Jennifer Lawrence, Victoria Justice, Rihanna, Amber Heard and Kirsten Dunst among others, whose private pictures were shared online by hackers in the online forum 4chan.

For a while, Upton and Verlander went discreet and became lethargic on social media. Upton has declined to comment on the scandal and simply authorised her lawyer to speak on her behalf. Upton's lawyer spoke to BuzzFeed and said that they will go after anyone who will share the racy images of the Sports Illustrated model. Verlander also refused to say anything about the nude photo leak and has said that his focus was mainly for the Tigers. He added that he had no intentions to talk about his personal life via USA Today.

However, Upton and Verlander have remained strong in the wake of the photo-hacking scandal. Recently, the pair were also spotted shopping at Lululemon. Upton has also been constant supporter of Verlander during the ALDS finals series.
