“If You Had a Baby, You Were Done” – Days After Major Investment, JJ Watt’s Wife Proud of Alex Morgan’s Achievements by Creating Revolutionary Moms in Soccer

The impact of the USWNT team on women’s soccer is extraordinary. Stars like Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan, and Carli Lloyd were some of the famous players on the team. It paved the way for stunning success and attracted people to soccer. Out of those soccer fans, some have turned owners in various leagues globally.

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s Wrexham story gathered pace after receiving a promotion to EFL League Two. Likewise, retired NFL star JJ Watt and his wife Kealia invested in Burnley. Thus, she recently gave a heartfelt acknowledgment to Alex Morgan. 

When a person gets pregnant, fans often believe the player can no longer be a part of the team. However, Morgan crossed all the boundaries to become a sensational player even after giving birth to her daughter, Charlie. 

JJ Watt’s wife acknowledges Alex Morgan for revolutionizing the sport

In a recent interview with Daily Mail, Kealia mentioned, “But it is very cool to see globally that women don’t have to retire when they have a baby if they don’t want to. I remember at the beginning of our league in the NWSL, if you had a baby you were done, you couldn’t play anymore.” It is one of the most prevalent stereotypes in recent times. But some athletes continue to live their dreams by playing as role model moms. 

Take Allyson Felix, for example. Despite experiencing a complicated delivery while giving birth to Camryn, she performed remarkably well in the track and field events. Likewise, Morgan performed admirably well and became the all-time scoring leader as a mom in USWNT history. Kealia credited her for creating a revolution amongst the women’s soccer teams.

Kealia continued, “There just wasn’t enough support and there wasn’t really a way to figure it out. Now we have over 14 women [in the NWSL] playing that have kids. It’s really cool to see that growth and people like Alex Morgan and so many players in our league have done an incredible job in advocating for our rights.” 

Morgan is a legend of the game!

Giving birth to her daughter Charlie in 2020, she became the 13th woman to play for the USWNT and was the eighth player to score a goal. Morgan and Charlie always post pictures exciting their fans. She wants her to attend the camps and matchday, and she is officially the junior mascot for the USWNT. 

Her commitment to her national team is sensational. Determined to get better each time, Alex Morgan helped her country win World Cups and Olympic Gold medals. By the time she ends her career, she will go down as one of the best soccer players in USWNT history.
