Ali Krieger reveals girlfriend after Ashlyn Harris opened up about divorce
Ali Krieger has moved on a little more than a year after her ex-wife Ashlyn Harris filed for divorce last October.
The retired soccer player — who joined ESPN as an analyst following her final season in March — is dating Scottish soccer player Jen Beattie, according to matching posts on their Instagram Stories.
“Thankful for you,” Beattie wrote, including a snapshot of the smiling couple couple drinking red wine. “Happy Thanksgiving my love.”
Krieger reposted it and wrote, “You have no idea..” with a few red heart emojis.
It came after Krieger said in July that she was dating someone new.
Beattie, who currently plays for Bay FC, split from “Love Island: UK” star Amber Gill in December 2023 after nearly one year of dating.
Krieger and Beattie went public with their relationship a few days after Harris opened up about their divorce on the “Naked Sports with Cari Champion” podcast.
The former USWNT goalie explained that it was her decision to end their near four-year marriage after more than a decade together because she didn’t feel loved or wanted by Krieger.
Harris, who’s currently dating actress Sophia Bush, said she and Krieger weren’t intimate in their marriage for some time before they called it quits.
Harris explained that she was bothered by being labeled a cheater when the news of their split was made public.
“[The biggest lie about the breakup is] that I’m constantly pegged as a cheater, which that is so far from the truth and she knows it,” Harris added. “And it torched me.”
Harris filed for divorce on Sept. 19, 2023, citing the marriage is “irretrievably broken,” according to court documents obtained by Page Six.
Harris said she and Krieger — who share custody of their two children, Sloane, 3, and Ocean, 2 — were living separately last summer.
Krieger and Harris’ divorce proceedings are ongoing.
Bush and Harris went public with their relationship earlier this year, although they were believed to have started dating months before then.
Harris retired from professional soccer in November 2022, and Krieger called it a career at the end of the 2023 NWSL season, last playing with Gotham FC.
They were on two World Cup-winning USWNT teams together in 2015 and 2019.
