J.J. Watt has been dating Kealia Ohai for four years. The 30-year-old Houston Texans defensive end got married to the 27-year-old soccer star in February 2020.

Is Kealia Ohai blind?

Ohai has achieved success on the soccer field despite being blind in one eye (she was diagnosed with severe astigmatism in her right eye when she was 6 years old).

She was teased at school because she wore a patch over her left eye to help strengthen the right one, though it never regained strength.

Throughout their relationship, Watt and Ohai have been extremely supportive of each other’s professional careers.

Watt could often be spotted at Ohai’s games in Houston wearing her jersey.

Ohai plays for the Chicago Red Stars of the National Women’s Soccer League and has also played for the United States women’s national team.
