The 2026 World Cup is fast approaching, which means United States soccer star Christian Pulisic is about to be in the spotlight in a big way. While the U.S. doesn’t play its first game until June 12, the official roster announcement already has fans buzzing about the team members, particularly Pulisic.
Of course, at Swooon, we have to know more about Pulisic’s love life, and we have rounded up everything important below. From a recent breakup to dating rumors with a famous actress, scroll down for more.
Does Christian Pulisic have a girlfriend?
No, Pulisic is not currently believed to be in a relationship. He previously dated Alexa Melton, a professional golfer, but she confirmed their split in a scathing Instagram comment in April (more on that below).
What happened between Christian Pulisic and Alexa Melton?
Pulisic met Melton in 2024 after sliding into her DMs. She didn’t know who he was at the time.
The two eventually began dating and were together for about two years before she revealed that they had broken up. She subtly made the confession in the comments section of her Instagram page. In response to a fan that wrote, “This generational fumble will be studied for years to come,” Melton replied, “Mans was on Raya before it even ended.” She later added, “Guess not fearing God enough. How many likes to post his Raya profile?”

Days later, Melton took to her Instagram Story to take back the allegations, writing, “I’ve made some comments on a private matter and it’s been taken out of context. I received false info. He is not a cheater. Any narrative beyond that is not mine. Out of respect for Christian’s and my privacy, I will not speak further regarding the matter.”
The following month, Time published an interview with Pulisic that was conducted in February 2026. During the Q&A, he said that he and Melton were already broken up at the time of the interview.
“I only look at her in the most positive way,” Pulisic shared. “She was a lot of fun, and she supported me in every way. She wanted to push me to enjoy my life a little bit more and do things with her and do things just in general. And I was grateful for that.”
Did Christian Pulisic date Sydney Sweeney?
No, Pulisic did not date Sydney Sweeney. Rumors of a relationship between the two first surfaced via Italian news outlets at the end of 2025, and Pulisic denied them.
“Please stop with the made up stories about my personal life,” he wrote on his Instagram Story. “Need to hold sources accountable it can affect people’s lives.”
He also responded directly to an Instagram post about the rumored romance, writing, “Fake news guys let’s stop with the silly rumor.”
