Pregnant Alex Morgan Shares Daughter's Reaction to Getting New Sibling

Pregnant Alex Morgan Shares Her Kids' Reaction to Getting a New Sibling

Alex Morgan’s squad is excited for their new team member.

As the U.S. Women’s National Team legend prepares to welcome her third baby with husband Servando Carrasco, she shared that their daughter Charlie, 6, is looking forward to stepping in as head coach.

“My daughter is so excited to have another sibling,” Morgan told E! News in an exclusive interview at the Time 100 Sports Gala in New York City July 16. “She wants to ‘rule the household,’ as she said in her words—be the big girl boss, big sister.”

But while the 37-year-old said her daughter has been “really positive” so far, she quipped, “We'll see once the baby comes out.”

And when it comes to how Morgan—also mom to son Enzo, 15 months, with Carrasco—is preparing to manage a bigger team, she noted that she’s mostly ready.

“I get a little more tired because I'm running after two other kids,” she explained. “But otherwise, it feels like you know what to expect, so you can handle it a little bit more.”

Regardless, the two-time Women’s World Cup winner added that she’s “just so excited that we're going to have a third baby.”

While Morgan is loving her position as manager of her own home team, she is just as passionate about encouraging the next generation of soccer stars with some game-winning advice.

“I would say to get into the sport because you have fun playing,” she shared. “It's really just about loving the game. If you don't love it, then there's no reason to continue playing it.”

Morgan—who retired from the sport in September 2024—added, “I loved playing soccer up until the last moment, and because I loved it, I wanted to get better. I wanted to challenge myself every day.”

So, she emphasized, “It all starts with really enjoying it.”

As Morgan prepares to welcome her newest team member this fall, keep reading to see more stars who have recently grown their squads.
