Soccer star Ali Krieger recently discussed her divorce from former teammate and wife, Ashlyn Harris.
The couple ended their four-year marriage in September, citing irretrievable breakdown.
Krieger revealed that she learned about the divorce during a practice session and expressed gratitude for the support of her teammates and friends.
Kreiger said, “My entire team came over for a dance party the night the news broke. And I will never forget that moment.”
“I found out at training. I was on the field. And I came off the field, in the locker room, and I was obviously devastated,” she continued.
“Through these past five months, my friends have shown up in ways that I will cherish and remember forever,” shared the athlete.
“They are my true people. It’s been so rewarding to see that, because you don’t know how much of an impact you have, even on your personal friends, and when they show up for you, you’re just like, ‘Whoa — thank God,’” she exlcaimed.
Rumors of infidelity surfaced, which Harris denied.
“Several weeks ago, a process that had been ongoing privately for some time became public. Ending a relationship after almost 13 years of friendship, teammate-ship, marriage and coparenting (many of them good years) is a decision that was not made lightly,” she explained.
“We agreed to center our children, continue therapy, separate and to move forward with our lives,’ said Kreiger.
“Not all marriages last forever. Ours did not. For many reasons. Let me be clear: I did not step out on my marriage. I was always faithful in my marriage, if not always totally happy,” explained Kreiger.
The pair, who won World Cup titles together, acknowledged the challenges of being married teammates.
Krieger emphasized her focus on self-care in 2024.
