While much of the WWE roster was in Washington D.C. for UFC Freedom 250 on June 14, 2026, Liv Morgan had different plans. The current Women’s World Champion didn’t just skip the White House event — she planted herself in the stands at a FIFA World Cup match in Dallas, and the internet noticed everything.
Cameras caught Morgan in the crowd during the 71st minute of the Netherlands vs. Japan group-stage game, which ended in a 2-2 draw. But the WWE star wasn’t solo. Next to her sat a man fans quickly identified as Landon Hardwick, a real estate agent who has been linked to Morgan in recent weeks. The two were seen huddled close, with Morgan glued to her phone at times, sparking a fresh wave of speculation about her personal life.
Rumors, Not Confirmations
Morgan has never publicly acknowledged a relationship with Hardwick. But the pair have been spotted together multiple times recently, including during WWE’s European tour in Paris, where Hardwick posted photos with Morgan on his social media. Fans online have connected the dots, though there’s been no official comment from either side.
On WWE television, Morgan’s romantic storyline remains firmly tied to Dominik Mysterio — a on-screen pairing that has drawn heavy reactions from the crowd. Whether the real-life rumors affect that angle is still anyone’s guess.
What’s Next for Liv Morgan in the Ring?
Morgan is currently riding high after defeating Stephanie Vaquer at WrestleMania 42 to claim the Women’s Championship. That feud was put on hold when Vaquer went down with an injury. With her rival sidelined, Morgan has entered the Queen of the Ring tournament and already punched her ticket to the semifinals.
The rest of the women’s division is watching closely. Morgan’s run as champion has been marked by consistent high-profile matches, but the absence of Vaquer leaves a gap in potential challengers. As of now, WWE has not announced any plans for either Morgan’s next title defense or Vaquer’s return timeline.
World Cup Appearance Adds a New Layer
Morgan’s choice to attend the World Cup instead of the UFC event at the White House drew immediate attention from fans online. Why choose a football match over a combat sports spectacle? Some read into it as a signal of her real-life priorities — or simply a scheduling decision. Either way, the image of Morgan and Hardwick in the stands has added another chapter to the ongoing curiosity about who she’s spending time with outside the ring.
For now, the WWE star keeps her private life quiet and her in-ring work loud. The rumors will keep floating, but Morgan’s focus seems planted on the Queen of the Ring tournament — and whatever comes next.
