As she is rumored to be dating Samantha Kerr, aka Sam Kerr, an Australian soccer player, let’s find out the real tea between them. Keep reading!
How the Rumors Started?
Being a celebrity, it is extremely tough to keep one’s personal life out of the limelight. Saying “None of your business” to fans and media might sound wrong. Like that, the soccer woman Kristie’s personal life is not hidden.
In August 2021, USWNT competed against Australia’s Matildas at the Tokyo Olympics. Megan Rapinoe and Carli Lloyd each scored a pair of goals, and the USA had a 4-3 victory over Australia. As a result, the team claimed the Olympic bronze medal in women’s football.
The match was interesting itself, but what intrigued the fans was the photographs of Sam Kerr, Mattildas #2, and Kristie Mewis, USWNT #6, sitting on the field, smiling, chatting, and embracing one another following the game went viral. These photos sparked the romance between the two.
On top of that, fans began speculating they were a thing since Kerr broke up with her long-term partner of seven years, Nikki Staton, before the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. So, are the two football stars really dating? Let’s find out.
Were the Speculations True?
Following the Olympics, rumors of Kristie and Sam dating sparked. Then, less than a week after those photographs went viral, Aussie soccer player Kerr confirmed their relationship via an Instagram post, where she uploaded a Polaroid photo of them. In the photo, Kristie sat on her lap as they shared a passionate smooch. Kristie Mewis’ partner tagged her in the photo and added a red heart emoji.

Likewise, in January 2023, Kristie Mewis’ partner, Sam Kerr, spoke to the UK publication Gaffer, where Kerr detailed about how their relationship started. The couple learned about one another while playing for competing clubs in the NWSL in the US in 2019.
During a match against each other, Sam thought Kristie’s team was crazy. Then, she recalled the time when no matter how bad her team was playing, they managed to win the game by 1-0. Then, she actually became aware of Kristie during a free kick. Sam Kerr’s partner was trying to get the ball, and when she got it, she kicked it away.
Their Relationship Blossomed Via Online
While Kerr and Mewis learned about one another while competing against one another, their relationship was pretty much all forged online. It was during the COVID-19 pandemic when there were restrictions on travel. As a result, they began a conversation via Instagram direct messages.
As a result, the couple was “forced” to learn about one another online. It was about three or four months until they could hang out in person. During their first meeting, there was quarantine, so they had to spend two weeks together. Kerr thought the situation would be awkward if she did not like Mewis.
Sam Kerr’s partner added that they knew it would be good. As a result, the duo fell head first in love in the 2021 Olympics, the same time they were photographed together. The duo is head over heels and often shows off their love for one another on social media.
We hope their relationship lasts a lifetime. Also, we wish Kristie all the best for her USWNT career as she competes in the 2023 season with her fellow teammates, Naomi Girma, Lindsey Horan, Midge Purce, and others. On the other hand, hopefully, Kristie Mewis’ partner, who is competing for Australia, and Chelsea, will gain more success in the coming days.
