Thierry Henry was supposed to be analyzing France vs Spain at the Dallas Stadium on Tuesday. Instead, he became the story — at least for NBA analyst Ashley Nicole Moss, who went public on X with her interest in the $130 million man.
Henry, 46, is part of the FOX broadcast team for the World Cup, working pre- and post-game coverage alongside Zlatan Ibrahimović and Rebecca Lowe. Moss, who covers the NBA for CBS Sports, was clearly paying attention to more than the football.
Henry's not exactly available
One small detail: Henry has been in a relationship with Andrea Rajacic for 16 years. They have three children together. Moss may have known that, or she may not have — either way, she posted, and the internet did the rest.
It's a lighthearted moment in the middle of a World Cup that has genuinely gripped the United States. Spain edged France in a match that had real stakes — France's exit ends what was expected to be a deep run for one of the tournament favorites, and Henry had a front-row seat in the worst possible role: pundit, not player.
For what it's worth, Moss has been making the most of the football summer. She was recently in France on vacation before returning to New York to catch the Knicks' championship parade — their first title in 53 years, sealed over the Spurs in five games. She also co-hosted the '106 and Sports' podcast with Cam Newton on BET, though the show was axed after eight episodes.
Henry, meanwhile, built a playing career serious enough that a $130 million net worth barely scratches the surface of his legacy — 51 goals for France, two league titles at Arsenal, a Champions League with Barcelona. Now he breaks down the game he once dominated, and apparently still turns heads doing it.
