In case you’ve been living under a rock and somehow missed it, the U.S. Women’s Soccer Team made history on July 7 with their second consecutive World Cup victory (and their fourth overall). The players have reached celebrity status for their amazing athleticism, as well as their fierce advocacy for equal pay in sports. Two of the most-talked-about women on the team are goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris and defender Ali Krieger, who are not only teammates, but fiancées, as well. Ashlyn Harris and Ali Krieger's relationship timeline is guaranteed to make you fall in love with them.
The two stars, who both played in the 2019 World Cup, are set to get married later this year. They’ve been playing on the national team together for almost a decade, which is how their love story began — and along the way, they’ve accumulated a fierce army of fans who have lovingly dubbed them “Krashlyn.” To celebrate their win and also their engagement, which was announced in March 2019, I’ve compiled a timeline of their entire relationship. And trust me, it’s pretty freaking cute.
Wondering how they first met and how they balance their personal lives and careers while working together? Read on for the backstory on these two sports legends.
