Ali Krieger is a defender on the USWNT and two-time World Cup winner and plays professionally for the Orlando Pride. She married USWNT and Pride goalie Ashlyn Harris in December 2019 after being together for nine years, and the couple adopted a daughter in 2020.
Krieger and Harris didn't confirm they were in a relationship until announcing their engagement, a decision Krieger said simply felt right. "Up until now, we were a bit hesitant, but that was more from a privacy perspective rather than a hiding perspective," she told Her in January 2020. Their friends, family, and organizations knew the two were dating, but Krieger and Harris worried about the sponsorship consequences if they came out publicly. Eventually, she said, "it was like f*ck it, and if they don't like us that's their prerogative and that's their loss. We just want to be our authentic selves, live our lives to the fullest and not feel that in this day and age we have to hide from being ourselves and being happy."
