Chelsea Teammates Jess Carter and Ann-Katrin Berger: More Than Just Soccer Stars
From the pitch to the personal, these two athletes are making headlines on and off the field.
In a world where sports often dominate the headlines, the personal lives of athletes can sometimes be overlooked. But for Chelsea teammates Jess Carter and Ann-Katrin Berger, their off-field story is just as compelling as their on-field success.
Carter, a defender, and Berger, a goalkeeper, are both openly lesbian and have been in a relationship since 2017. In May of this year, they announced their engagement. Their love story is a refreshing and inspiring example of how love can transcend boundaries, both on and off the field.
On the field, Carter and Berger are both key players for Chelsea. Carter has been with the club since 2018 and has helped them win two Women's Super League titles and one FA Cup. Berger joined Chelsea in 2019 and has also been a key part of their success, helping them win the 2020/21 Women's Super League title.
Both Carter and Berger are also members of their respective national teams. Carter plays for England, while Berger plays for Germany. They have both represented their countries at the highest level, including the World Cup and the Olympics.
Carter and Berger are not only talented soccer players, but they are also role models for LGBTQ+ youth around the world. Their story shows that it is possible to be successful in sports while also being true to yourself.
