Sam Kerr cut a sporty figure as she enjoyed some quality time with her pregnant fiancé Kristie Mewis in Perth on Friday.
The Matildas captain, 31, and the American football player, 33, are currently in Australia visiting Sam’s family over the Christmas period.
And the couple made the most of the balmy weather as they headed out together for a sun-filled day of shopping in Sam’s native Perth.
For the outing, Sam kept it casual in an oversized white T-shirt and black shorts, which she teamed with a pair of black slides.
The Chelsea forward shielded her eyes with a pair of blue reflective sunglasses and carried a shopping bag in one hand as they picked up some Christmas essentials, including a box of chocolates.
During the flight to Australia, Sam had worn a black compression sleeve on her right leg to care for her ACL injury, but on her latest outing she was able to forego the device.

Sam’s injury has sidelined her for Women’s Super League club Chelsea until February or March 2025.
As Sam stepped out on Friday, she was seen eagerly chatting with her partner Kristie, who showed off her blossoming baby bump in a form-fitting black unitard.
The West Ham United midfielder completed her athletic ensemble with a pair of black sandals and shielded her eyes with dark square sunglasses.
The couple looked as in love as ever and enjoyed some much-needed relaxing time off over the Christmas period.
Kristie also took to her Instagram Stories on Friday to share a photo of Sam walking on the beach as they made the most of their time in Australia.
In the photo, taken from behind, Sam wore a black tank top and orange shorts as she strolled to the golden sands on the beach.
The couple appear to be having the time of their lives in Perth since arriving for the Christmas holidays earlier this week.
Sam and Kristie have had an exciting few months after revealing last month that they are going to become first-time parents.

The couple confirmed their jovial baby news in an adorable Instagram post on Nov. 19, sharing photos of them both grinning at their ultrasound scan.
Sam and Kristie started dating during the 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo, where they were seen together on the field after a match between Australia and the United States.
It is understood the couple first met when they were both competing for clubs in the National Women’s Soccer League in the US in 2019.
They had been speaking online for almost four months during the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic, with the pair also believed to have spent two weeks together in lockdown.
They publicly confirmed their relationship in August 2021 via an Instagram post and announced their engagement in November 2023.
Just a month after getting engaged, Massachusetts native Kristie signed with West Ham United and moved to London to be closer to Sam.
But Sam has been sidelined since December last year after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury during a training camp with the south-west London club.
She was forced to undergo surgery and enter a period of rehabilitation, ruling her out of the remainder of the 2023–2024 season.
