Having faced multiple hardships, the two legends can connect at varying levels. Speaking fondly for Sue, Megan once quoted, “to have someone who intimately knows what it means when I say” is special. The soccer star says they are always there for each other. Sue is indeed Megan’s “greatest gift ever.”

For the unversed, the two athletes announced their engagement on October 2020 after three years of dating. Bird shared the news in a captionless post on Instagram.
