Sam Kerr and Kristie Mewis announce they are expecting their first child in 2025

Chelsea striker Sam Kerr and West Ham midfielder Kristie Mewis have announced they are expecting their first child in 2025. They shared the news on social media with a collage of photos, including an ultrasound image. The couple, engaged last year, received congratulations from fellow players, including Chloe Kelly and Fran Kirby. Kerr has been sidelined since January due to an ACL injury, while Mewis has made one appearance this season. Chelsea leads the Women's Super League, having won all seven of their games so far. Kerr is also facing a trial next year related to a previous incident involving a police officer.
