Ben Shelton's girlfriend Trinity Rodman sends sweet message to young 'twin' fan during USWNT duty

Ben Shelton's girlfriend Trinity Rodman was in duty for the United States Women's National Team (USWNT) when she met her 'twin' Malia. The young fan had a similar hairstyle as Rodman and the pair expressed their happiness upon meeting.

A young fan named Malia, whose Instagram account is @malia_twinrodman, jointly shared a Reel on Instagram with Rodman of the Washington Spirits star meeting her and gifting her a signed shirt. The 23-year-old highlighted her young fans' hair which was braided and pink just like hers.

Malia, who also plays soccer at the junior level, captioned the post:

"Plot twist: I met a superhero in cleats today. Name’s Trinity Rodman. This wasn’t just a meet and greet… it was fuel for the dream. Still processing…"

Rodman was grateful for the love shown by the young fan and commented:

"This is what I live for 🤭🤭 so happy to have met you ❤️❤️"

Rodman was on USWNT duty in the past weeks as they took on Brazil for two friendlies. In the first match, the Washington Spirits forward was off to a flyer with an early goal that eventually helped the USA win 2-0. However, Brazil earned the spoils in the next match, 2-1.

Trinity is the daughter of former NBA star Dennis Rodman. She plays soccer in the NWSL and is now also connected to the tennis world via her boyfriend. Shelton and Rodman shared cryptic videos on TikTok in March that led fans to believe they had something brewing, and the tennis star then made their relationship Instagram official.
