Megan Moroney, who is currently dating soccer player Christian Pulisic, confirmed the relationship publicly. Pulisic, a star player for the U.S. men’s national team and A.C. Milan, has captured the attention of fans ever since news of the couple broke. Meanwhile, Eiza González has been in a relationship with Bulgarian tennis player Grigor Dimitrov since at least April 2025. Their connection was also highlighted at the glamorous gala, where the two women enjoyed discussing their special men.
Moroney’s romance has garnered considerable media attention. Just a week prior to the gala, fans noticed something that hinted at their relationship — during her performance at the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, images circulated showing her phone background featuring a photo of herself with Pulisic. This revelation offered additional validation of their relationship status, much to the delight of their supporters.
Speculation regarding Moroney and Pulisic’s relationship has been rife. Earlier in July, the couple was reportedly seen together in a Nashville bar, and a particular photo taken at one of Moroney’s concerts showcased Pulisic’s attendance alongside his cousin. Such public appearances have led fans to eagerly track their relationship developments.
Recently, Moroney’s posts on social media added fuel to the fire. A trip to Italy featured glimpses that suggested she was using her time there to support Pulisic, who plays his club football in Milan. Notably, she was seen wearing a jersey from Pulisic’s PUMA collection, further linking her to the football star and hinting at their budding romance.
On the other hand, González and Dimitrov officially acknowledged their relationship earlier this year. The couple was first spotted together in April, walking hand-in-hand through the streets of Madrid, and by summer, González celebrated Dimitrov’s birthday with a heartfelt Instagram message, lovingly declaring him her “absolutely favorite human.” Such public expressions of affection have often provided insight into their relationship dynamics.
At the premiere for her latest film, “Fountain of Youth,” González spoke favourably about Dimitrov, expressing how supportive he has been. “He’s so sweet. It’s so nice. He’s always so supportive of me and he’s very excited,” she shared with the press. Her remarks not only highlighted her personal happiness but also reflected a growing trend of WAGs actively participating in their partners’ professional lives.
The emergence of this new generation of WAGs, represented by Moroney and González, underscores a shift in how these relationships are perceived. With both women finding ways to align their careers with their personal lives, they are setting examples for others in similar situations. The idea that these modern “WAGs” can maintain their identities while supporting their athletic partners is an inspiring narrative in the world of sports and entertainment.
As both couples continue to gain media attention, it will be intriguing to see how their relationships evolve. For now, Moroney and González embody a refreshing take on the traditional WAG image, relishing in their successes while celebrating the athletes they love. Their light-hearted camaraderie is a testament to the changing dynamics of sport-related relationships, bridging the gap between competitive careers and personal fulfilment.
