  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Some 12 months on and the pair are now preparing to welcome a new arrival into their family. Mewis has previously spoken of Kerr being “everything” to her, adding that the 31-year-old Chelsea star is her “biggest supporter, always listening to me nag and complain, all of my crazy antics”.

  • WHAT KERR & MEWIS SAID

    Kerr and Mewis have spoken of their desire to normalise “being two girls in love”, with the lid often being lifted on their private lives. They have now revealed that there is a “baby coming”, with a collage of images on Instagram seeing them share a kiss and a picture of Mewis’ swollen stomach.

  • WHAT NEXT?

    News of the “Mewis-Kerr baby coming 2025!” has given Australian superstar Kerr something to smile about, as she has been stuck on the sidelines since suffering knee ligament damage in January 2024. Said injury prevented her from gracing the 2024 Olympic Games, while West Ham midfielder Mewis did not form part of the USWNT’s gold medal-winning squad and remains on 53 senior caps for her country.
