"Tobin and I have always approached life with a joy for sacredness and we both really appreciate privacy," Press explained. "We both also appreciate that as public figures, there is responsibility and there is opportunity to model lifestyles and relationships and choices that can be unsafe for people or that they can be struggling with."
And Press highlighted the variety of relationships modeled by the USWNT—including ones "that are really loud and bold and those are deeply meaningful for the queer community and more traditional, like mom-dad-and-baby relationships"—as an opportunity for she and Heath to share their home life on their own terms.
"There's a space for the way that Tobin and I operate, which is a quiet and respectful and partnership," Press said, "I think that also lets us have a piece of us that is really sacred and really special."
Not that they aren't delighted by their supporters' interest in their relationship or have failed to notice the slew of excited comments about breaking the Internet every time they post about one another.
"We do love the fans," Press gushed. "We love the love and we totally get the way that everyone shows up for us and everybody feels invested in our story. It actually does touch us."
As for their dynamic as co-hosts [on The RE—CAP Show] versus teammates and life partners, Heath acknowledged that she and Press are "such different individuals, both as footballers and as people," but their differences come together for a "nice dynamic" on the show.
"We both approach our crafts very different, but we are obsessed with our crafts," she continued. "It's a special thing building something with someone that kind of has that same elite mentality."
