You love to see it.

Kerr and Mewis have been officially together since 2021 and have undoubtedly become of the most famous soccer power couples in the world.

The Australian goalscorer, who has consistently placed herself in Ballon D’or contention since signing for Chelsea, has scored 99 goals in 128 matches for the Blues.

Mewis, one of the USWNT’s consistent midfielders in recent years, won the NWSL Championship with NY/NJ Gotham FC in 2023 and sealed a move to West Ham last season.

However, the pair have simultaneously suffered from injury and fitness problems since the start of the campaign, making a combined three appearances for their clubs.
