Who is Lindsey Horan's boyfriend? Soccer star dreams of going on 'adventures' with beau
Striker-turned-midfielder and 2019 World Cup winner Lindsey Horan is all set to win hearts this Olympics season in Tokyo. Now, soccer fans want to know more about her and her dating life.
Lindsey Horan earlier made news when she switched off her position in the team from striker to a midfielder. But "a soccer player is a soccer player," she insisted on Tokyo 2020 a few months back, talking about the swap. “I studied the game so much from when I was a kid and I feel like I see the game really well,” added the 26-year-old Horan – tall and powerful and great in the air, but a creator in her bones – about the various positions she’s been asked to play for the United States since her first cap as a teenager. "I don’t really care where you put me, as long as I can get on the ball."

Who is Lindsey Horan's boyfriend?
Born on May 26, 1994, Lindsey Michelle Horan, is the player of the Portland Thorns FC of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) and the United States women's national soccer team. In 2018, she was named NWSL MVP. During the 2017 championship season, Horan was a leading player for the Thorns, scoring the winning goal in the championship game, and before that was a prolific scorer for Paris Saint-Germain FC, scoring 46 goals in 58 appearances. She was the best scorer for the United States U-17 team at the 2010 CONCACAF U-17 Women's Championship. She is the daughter of Mark and Linda Horan and has one brother named Michael Horan. Horan committed to play for the University of North Carolina in the fall of 2012 but opted to bypass college and signed professionally for Paris Saint Germain in France, becoming the first American female to sign a professional contract straight after high school.
Horan was just 5-year-old when she first showed interest in playing soccer. She wanted her mother to coach her. In fact, Linda Horan coached Lindsey for several childhood years. Horan's brother, Michael, was her childhood play buddy, who never underestimated his sister and always gave full effort to win. The brother-sister soccer rivalry contributed to building Horan's career as a tough soccer player, always willing to win. It is reported that Horan is allegedly dating a man named Tyler Heaps as she often uploads cute pictures with cheesy captions with him. In one of the pictures, which she posted on Heaps birthday, she wrote, "Happy 30th Birthday Ty!! Missing all our adventures a little more today. Whether we’re biking (very confidently) all over Chicago, hopping boulders w/ M-Raw in CO, playing makeshift soccer tennis inside in PDX or these above, everything with you is better. Can’t wait for more adventures with you/most likely beating you at everything since you’re so old now! I love you so much 😘 "
