Christian Pulisic’s girlfriend is a stunning professional golfer whom he met after “sliding into her DMs.”
The former Chelsea star, 27, first sparked rumors he was dating Alexa Melton last summer, and the pair have since made their relationship official on Instagram.
Former Chelsea star Christian Pulisic has been dating Alexa Melton for over a year.
The stunning pro golfer has 137,000 followers on Instagram.
The USMNT forward, who plays for AC Milan, frequently appears in Melton’s social media posts as she shares glimpses of her glamorous life with her 137,000 followers.
Melton turned professional in 2023 and is rarely seen without a golf club in her Instagram photos. She is reported to have earned around $13,700 in prize money so far in her career.
Melton competes on the Epson Tour but currently holds an overall ranking of 1578 on the women’s golf leaderboard.
She has posted a number of striking photos, including a recent series showcasing her impressive figure while practicing yoga.
Earlier this year, the couple revealed how they first got together after Pulisic tried his luck by messaging Melton online.
In a documentary aired on Paramount Plus, Pulisic said: “I slid into the DMs, as they call it.”
Melton added: “I got the DM and I was like, ‘Who is this guy with 8 million followers, and why is he DMing me?’
“Then I scrolled through his Instagram and was like, ‘Oh, he’s a big-time soccer player.’”
Later in the program, Pulisic described Melton as “a really special girl” and opened up about the impact she has had on his life.
He added: “I guess I never reached a point where I felt ready for this before, and that’s something I’ve really changed my mindset about—along with my faith. In many ways, that’s what led me to her.”
While Pulisic has been happy in his new relationship, he has had to dismiss rumors linking him to Hollywood superstar Sydney Sweeney.
Pulisic has been forced to dismiss rumors he is dating Hollywood actress Sydney Sweeney.
On Sunday, he posted on his Instagram story, writing: “Please stop with the made-up stories about my personal life.
“Sources need to be held accountable—this can affect people’s lives.”
He then shared another report spreading the story and added: “Fake news, guys. Let’s stop with the silly rumors.”
Blonde star Sweeney has been dating talent manager Scooter Braun since rumors about their relationship began this summer.
The two were seen cozying up to each other at the premiere of Sweeney’s latest movie, The Housemaid, earlier this month.
SunSport revealed in August that Sweeney, who split from fiancé Jonathan Davino in March, has received a flood of messages from several Premier League stars.
However, she has not been photographed with Pulisic, who is now in his third season with Serie A side AC Milan.
The American star began his career with Borussia Dortmund in 2015 before joining Chelsea for the 2019–20 season.
He spent four years at Stamford Bridge, scoring 26 goals in 145 appearances, before joining the Italian club in a £20 million deal in 2023.
