In a move that has delighted football fans and romantics alike, US women's national team star Kristie Mewis has publicly celebrated her anniversary with Australian football sensation and Matildas captain, Sam Kerr. The heartfelt tribute, shared across social media, offers a rare and intimate glimpse into one of the sport's most beloved power couples.
A Romantic Gesture Captivates Fans
Mewis took to Instagram to post a stunning, previously unseen photograph of the pair, capturing a tender moment of affection. The image, bathed in warm light, perfectly encapsulates the deep connection between the two footballing icons. The accompanying caption, though simple, spoke volumes, dedicated to 'my favourite person ever' on their special day.
The public display of affection quickly went viral, with the post being flooded with thousands of likes and comments from adoring fans, fellow athletes, and friends from within the football community, all eager to celebrate the couple's milestone.
Football's Favourite Power Couple
The relationship between Kerr, the prolific Chelsea and Matildas striker, and Mewis, a formidable midfielder for the USWNT and West Ham United, has been a source of fascination and admiration since it became public. Their union represents a transcontinental romance, bridging two of the world's most formidable footballing nations.
Despite their incredibly demanding schedules, which involve international duty, rigorous WSL and A-League commitments, and global travel, the couple has consistently supported each other's careers from the sidelines, often being spotted cheering each other on at major tournaments and league matches.
Support On and Off the Pitch
This anniversary tribute underscores the strong foundation of mutual support that defines their relationship. Mewis has been a vocal pillar of strength for Kerr, especially during the Matildas' monumental runs in recent World Cups and other international competitions.
Similarly, Kerr's unwavering support for Mewis's career, including her club move to the English Women's Super League, highlights a partnership built on encouragement and shared ambition. Their ability to maintain a strong private life while excelling at the highest levels of professional sport continues to inspire fans worldwide.
