Alex Morgan and Servando Carrasco are a power couple in the soccer world.
Morgan and Carrasco met in college and wed during a New Year's Eve celebration in 2014. The pair welcomed their first child, daughter Charlie, in 2020, and in March 2025, they announced the arrival of their son, Enzo.
In September 2024, Morgan announced her retirement from soccer, while Carrasco retired from the sport back in 2020.
"To me, family means everything. I wouldn’t be here without my husband and my family uplifting and motivating and encouraging and supporting me and sacrificing for me for the last 15 years as a professional athlete," she said in a video on Instagram.
So who is Alex Morgan's husband? Here's everything to know about Servando Carrasco and his relationship with the two-time Women's World Cup-winning soccer player.
Soccer was his passion from a young age

Carrasco played soccer for St. Augustine High School and San Diego Surf Soccer Club during his teenage years. He went on to train in the Olympic Development Program and the Premier Development Program.
In 2007, he received a scholarship to the University of California at Berkeley and played for their soccer team. The following year, he was named All-Pac-10 second team and Pac-10 All-Academic second team. By 2010, he was senior co-captain of the squad. Over the span of his four years in college, he scored 13 goals.

Morgan and Carrasco first crossed paths during their freshman year of college. He witnessed how Morgan's game evolved and developed through the course of her collegiate career.
"She was very raw," Carrasco told MLS Soccer of Morgan's talent. "Clearly, she had the athletic ability. She was the fastest player on the team. She had an amazing left foot. She could strike a ball on a rope. And then she started to add things to her game, brick by brick. She got better tactically, she started watching more soccer, her first touch got better."
He played professional soccer

The midfielder, who retired from soccer in 2020, played for six different teams in the MLS.
At the beginning of 2011, he was drafted in the second round by the Seattle Sounders FC. In March, he made his MLS debut on the team in a game against the New York Red Bulls. He went on to score his first MLS goal on June 8, 2013, against the Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
In 2013, he moved to the Houston Dynamo before transitioning to Sporting Kansas City in 2015. The same year, he was signed by Orlando City and later joined the Los Angeles Galaxy in 2018. Finally, for the 2020 season, he joined Fort Lauderdale CF for the year, which has since been renamed to Inter Miami CF II and is a team in the MLS Next Pro league.
He proposed to Morgan in an elaborate way

In December 2013, during an annual fireworks show, Carrasco popped the question to Morgan in Manhattan Beach, Calif.
"He was planning the proposal for that night and asked me to stand up, and then asked me to marry him," she told The Knot. "We rode our beach cruisers to my dad's house to celebrate and have champagne with our family and friends. We had spoken about what kind of engagement ring I wanted before the proposal, but I wasn't really set on a specific style. He did have it custom-designed, though."
He married Morgan in 2014

On New Year's Eve in 2014, Morgan and Carrasco tied the knot at Rancho Dos Pueblos in Santa Barbara, Calif., in front of 180 guests.
Morgan wore a gown from Berta Bridal before switching into a custom Amsale dress for the reception. Meanwhile, Carrasco opted for an Armani tuxedo.
The couple treated guests to two signature cocktails: a Moscow mule and an authentic Cadillac margarita. They celebrated into the late hours of the night with a live band and DJ, complete with a balloon drop at midnight.
"To be surrounded by our family and friends tonight in such a beautiful location, and on New Year's Eve to boot, has just been magical," Morgan told PEOPLE of the big day. "We are both so happy, grateful and excited to start our lives together as Mr. and Mrs. Carrasco. I truly married my best friend."
He has dual citizenship in America and Mexico

Carrasco was born in San Diego but grew up in Tijuana, Mexico, before returning to the United States when he was 7 years old. He also spent time in Argentina in 2006, training in soccer with other champions in the making. He is currently a citizen of both Mexico and the U.S.
During the couple's wedding, the pair had a Mexican-American fusion dinner, including a quesadilla bar and homemade churros.
He and Morgan share two children

On May 7, 2020, Carrasco and Morgan welcomed their first child together, a daughter they named Charlie Elena. In an Instagram post announcing her birth, Carrasco wrote that it was the "best day" of his life.
Ahead of the 2023 World Cup, Morgan told PEOPLE that Charlie "does already love soccer." She added, "She's just pretty athletic in general. She's very competitive, and when we get to a hotel she wants to race me down the hallway. Be the one to touch the walls first. She wants to sing and dance all day and all night. She's very active!"
Carrasco and Morgan announced the birth of their second child, son Enzo, in March 2025.
"Soaking it all up right now. Welcome to the world baby Enzo," they wrote on Instagram.
He and Morgan didn't discuss soccer

Although the couple were soccer powerhouses, they rarely discussed their games and performances with each other — especially when they had a tough time.
"I'm not going to go out of my way to tell her that she played poorly," he told MLS Soccer in 2019. "And if she did the same thing for me, well, that stuff wouldn't be good for our relationship ... [The] last thing I want is to hear it from the person I love."
