The future of US soccer is in safe hands. Be it in men’s or women’s soccer, thousands of American teenagers work hard to become the next Christian Pulisic or Alex Morgan. Even at this year’s FIFA World Cup, there were some amazing talents with the likes of Tim Weah, Josh Sargent, and Sergino Dest. Furthermore, the team was led by Leeds United starlet Tyler Adams.
Coming into women’s soccer, one doesn’t need to prove how good the ladies are. While the men might have struggled to lift the cup, the Gals have been terrific in the past. They have been in five finals and won four of them.

Nevertheless, now the USWNT will be looking to lift yet another trophy for the 2023 FIFA World Cup. Head coach Vlatko Andonovski will be looking to build a talented squad for his side. And in that dexterous squad, is a skilled forward, Trinity Rodman, daughter of former NBA superstar Dennis Rodman. She has caught the eye of soccer fans and is touted to become one of the best players in the US.
Trinity Rodman’s relationship with his father Dennis Rodman
Everyone knows about the scathing off-court life of Dennis Rodman. The former Bulls rebounder had weird rumors back in the day. The worm had three divorces with Carmen Electra, Michelle Moyer, and Annie Bakes.

Dennis has two children with Michelle Moyer, DJ Rodman, and Trinity. He also has another daughter Alexis with Annie Bakes. He may have given divorce to all his wives, but he still has a relationship with his kids. Trinity Rodman has revealed the truth about her relationship with her father.
“Growing up people always thought that me and my dad had a close relationship and like we never did. Living in Newport beach, my dad was a little bit around but was still in the party NBA phase. He wasn’t in our lives and I was with my mom and we were living separately but we were still seeing him,” said Trinity to ESPN.

In the interview, her mother, Michelle Moyer also revealed the hardships the family endured. She denied that even though people knew whose daughter Trinity is, they never got anything served on a silver platter.
“It’s hard and there are a lot of comments that you know go into you live in a mansion and your dad’s taking care of you and blah blah blah you know it wasn’t like that at all,” said Moyer.
The conditions were so rough that they had to live in a motel and sometimes in a car.
Trinity Rodman following her father’s footsteps
Perhaps it was something that was meant to happen, those difficult circumstances made Trinity what she is today. Dennis must be proud of his kid’s achievements. Both his kids are following in his father’s footsteps to become the best in the history of American sports.

It’s great that players like Trinity are becoming an inspiration for thousands of Americans. Perhaps this might be the best example of ending Nepotism. Whatever Trinity is today, she and her mother deserve all the credit. We hope she makes everyone proud in the upcoming World Cup and writes Rodman’s family name in the history books.
