Wambach, 33, married longtime girlfriend and fellow soccer star Sarah Huffman, 29, on Oct. 5 at the Villas at Po’ipu Kai on the island of Kauai in Hawaii, TMZ reports.
Wambach later Tweeted, “Sarah and I wanted to thank everyone for all the love and support. We couldn’t be happier. What an amazing week it’s been.” She added the hashtag “honeymoon.”
The intimate wedding was held on the beach at sunset in front of the couple’s family and closest friends, according to TMZ.
