It looks like soccer star Christian Pulisic and his girlfriend, golfer Alexa Melton, have broken up, and the split looks pretty ugly.
Late last year, the star striker, captain of the US men’s national team, had to shut down rumors that he was dating Sydney Sweeney, but apparently not everything can be fixed.
In fact, Melton seemed to imply that Pulisic wasn’t exactly faithful before retracting the claim.

“Mans was on Raya before it even ended,” Melton said in an Instagram comment, according to the New York Post. Raya is a subscription-based celebrity dating app.
“How many like to post their Raya profile,” Melton said in another comment, the outlet noted.
However, Melton seemed to back off a bit.
“I made some comments about a private matter and they were taken out of context. I received false information. He is not a cheater. Any narrative beyond that is not mine,” Melton said in a recent Instagram Story. “Out of respect for Christian’s and my privacy, I will not speak further on this matter.”

USA’S WORLD CUP HOPES TURN HIT AFTER STAR PLAYER BROKES ACHILLES
Pulisic had been dating Melton since at least the summer of 2024. Melton played college golf at USC and competed in the 2024 US Women’s Open. She has primarily competed on the women’s Epson Tour, but not since 2024.
Meanwhile, Sweeney has been linked to music manager Scooter Braun, who has worked with Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift.
Pulisic will don the Stars and Stripes this summer at the 2026 World Cup, which will be played across North America. The final will take place on July 19 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, home of the New York Giants and Jets.
It will be Pulisic’s second appearance at the World Cup, as he also played in 2022 in Qatar. That team advanced to the knockout stage, but was eliminated by the Netherlands, who lost to eventual champion Argentina in the round of 16.
