Wambach was previously married to former professional soccer player Sarah Huffman, until they split in September. Melton had been married to Craig Melton for 14 years before she announced their separation in August.

Melton has three children from her first marriage.

"We are a modern, beautiful family," she wrote last year. "Our children are loved. So loved. And because of all of that love, they are brave. When Craig and I sat them down to tell them about Abby I started by saying: 'In our family, we live and tell the truth about who we are no matter what, and then love each other through it -- and I’m about to show you how that’s done.'"
