Sam Kerr cuts a sporty figure as she joins her pregnant fiancee Kristie Mewis for sunny day out in Perth as they return to Australia for Christmas

Sam Kerr cut a sporty figure as she enjoyed some quality time with her pregnant fiancée Kristie Mewis in Perth on Friday.

The Matildas captain, 31, and the American football player, 33, are currently in Australia visiting Sam’s family over the Christmas period.

And the couple made the most of the balmy weather as they stepped out together for a sun-filled day running errands in Sam’s native Perth.

For the outing, Sam kept it casual in an oversized white T-shirt and black shorts, which she styled with a pair of black sliders.

The Chelsea striker shielded her eyes with a pair of blue reflective shades and carried a shopping bag in one hand as they picked up some Christmas essentials, including a box of chocolates.

On the flight to Australia, Sam had been sporting a black compression sleeve on her right leg to tend to her ACL injury, but she was able to ditch the aid during her latest outing.

Sam’s injury has seen her sidelined from Women’s Super League club Chelsea until February or March 2025.

Stepping out on Friday, Sam was seen avidly chatting away to her partner Kristie, who showed off her blossoming baby bump in a figure-hugging black unitard.

The West Ham United midfielder completed her athletic ensemble with a pair of black sandals and shielded her eyes with dark square sunglasses.

The couple looked as loved-up as ever as they enjoyed some much-needed relaxing time off over the Christmas period. 

Kristie also took to her Instagram Stories on Friday to share a snap of Sam heading down the beach as they made the most of their time in Australia.

In the photograph, taken from behind, Sam sported a black vest top and orange shorts as she strolled down on to the golden sands on the beach.

The couple appear to be having the time of their lives in Perth since touching down for the Christmas holidays earlier this week.

Sam and Kristie have had an exciting few months after revealing last month that they are set to become parents for the first time.

The couple confirmed their jovial baby news in an adorable Instagram post on November 19, sharing snaps of them both grinning with their ultrasound scan.  

Sam and Kristie started dating during the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, where they were seen together on the field after a match between Australia and the United States.

It is understood that the couple first met while they were both competing for clubs in the National Women’s Soccer League in the USA back in 2019. 

They had spoken online for nearly four months during the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic, with the pair also believed to have spent two weeks in lockdown together. 

They publicly confirmed their relationship in August 2021 through an Instagram post and announced their engagement in November 2023.

Just one month after getting engaged, Massachusetts-native Kristie signed with West Ham United and moved to London to be closer to Sam. 

But Sam has been sidelined since last December after she suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury during a training camp with the south-west London club.

She was forced to undergo surgery and enter a rehabilitation period, ruling her out of the remainder of the 2023-2024 season.
