While there is little information about the meet-cute for the soccer star and businesswoman, People reported that they “quickly became friends” after meeting through work. “At one point, we looked at each other and I think it clicked for both of us. Like, ‘Oh, I like you! And you like me?!’ ” Kelley told the outlet in July 2023.
