PERTH: In the world of international football, few pairs command as much respect and attention as Sam Kerr and Kristie Mewis. On New Year’s Eve 2025, the Chelsea and West Ham stars cemented their status as the sport’s premier power couple by marrying in a private ceremony in Western Australia.

The wedding serves as the grand finale to a transformative 12 months for the pair. In May, they welcomed their first child, Jagger, a milestone that they shared with millions of fans worldwide. For Kerr, the year has been a balance of rehabilitation and family life, while Mewis has continued her professional journey in the Women’s Super League.

Held at a private estate to ensure privacy from the paparazzi, the wedding featured:

Mewis opted for a traditional elegant white gown with a flowing veil.

Kerr looked dapper in a classic black tuxedo.

The Kerr-Mewis union is more than just a celebrity wedding; it represents a modern era of visibility in sports. Since their viral moment at the Tokyo Olympics, the two have used their platforms to share their journey of professional competition and same-sex parenthood, garnering a massive international following.

What’s Next?

With the “wedding shred” behind them, both players are expected to return to their respective clubs. Fans can expect to see them back on the pitch soon, as football commitments have put any immediate honeymoon plans on hold. However, the couple has discussed a potential celebratory trip during the upcoming men’s World Cup cycle.
