Ali Krieger is all set for the next chapter in her life. She’s lacing up her boots and stepping onto the field of life’s next big game.
Last year was a whirlwind for this US Women’s National Team superstar. She hung up her soccer cleats, marking the end of an illustrious career. But that wasn’t all.
Her four-year marriage to fellow soccer player Ashlyn Harris also came to an end. Together, they have two kids, Sloane, who’s 2, and Ocean, a 17-month-old bundle of joy.
The divorce was a low point for Ali. It was a gut punch that brought her to her knees. But at 39, she’s not letting it keep her down.
She’s looking forward. She’s got her eyes on the horizon, filled with hope and optimism.
In a recent interview with SELF, she revealed, “I’m in a good place.” She’s still working through it all, processing the ups and downs in real time.
She admitted to meeting the most shattered version of herself this year. But now? She’s stronger than ever. She’s got this newfound resilience, this belief that she can weather any storm.
“I’m ready for this next phase,” she said. She’s eager, ready to embrace whatever life throws her way.
“I feel like the universe has sent me a gift,” she mused. And she’s ready to unwrap it, to see what’s inside.
But don’t expect her to dive headfirst into a new romance. Nah, she’s not rushing into anything like that. Instead, she’s putting herself first, taking center stage in her own life.
