Who Is Chicago Bears Quarterback Caleb Williams’ Girlfriend Alina Thyregod?
The Chicago Bears selected USC quarterback Caleb Williams with the first pick in the 2024 NFL draft.
Williams began his rookie season giving defenses fits and delivered a jolt to a Bears team that had been lacking that for some time. With so much attention on him now, fans in the Windy City and beyond want to know more about Williams and the woman in his life.
Here’s more on Alina Thyregod who you may remember embracing her man after his name was called as the No. 1 pick.
When Willliams and Thyregod met
Williams and Thyregod have been together since November 2023. They’ve been private about exactly how they met but did date for a bit when they were in high school before calling it quits.
On The Pivot Podcast Williams explained that his girlfriend is someone he’s known for several years but they haven’t dated the entire time.
“She is from Europe, Danish. She moved from D.C. because her dad had a job in D.C.,” the football player revealed. “I met her at the end of her tenure. We dated a little bit. Then we ended it. Kept in strong communication throughout four years. We’re back dating again.”
Williams teased their appearance together before the NFL Draft
Just days before the 2024 NFL Draft, Williams let fans know that he and his girlfriend were excited to showoff their outfits.
“Wait till y’all see draft day suit and my ladies dress. 1 of 1s,” he posted on X (formerly Twitter).
Williams wore a navy double-breasted suit from Chrome Hearts, while Thyregod stunned in a silver dress from the label. The signal-caller spoke to GQ about wearing a custom suit by one of his favorite designers.
“I don’t think I’ve ever seen it. The double-breasted being actually a zip-up,” he said. “I’ve never seen anybody wear it. Just the fact that I’ve been lucky enough, blessed enough to have the relationships and connection to be able to have a suit be Chrome Hearts.”
The quarterback also tried to coordinate his nail polish with Thyregod’s gown and shared: “My mom does nails … she’s done it for my whole life so it’s kinda always been around me. Nobody else does it I like to kind of do new things. I don’t really care what people have to say about it.”
What is Thyregod’s occupation?
Thyregod is reportedly a production designer. She’s done some work on HGTV as well as Elle and aspires to break into the fashion industry.
Her love for fashion was on full display when she and Williams attended the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring/Summer 2025 show in Paris during Fashion Week in June 2024. The two both wore pieces by the French luxury designer.
Williams sported a green sherpa jacket with brown leather details, while Thyredgod stunned in an LV logo miniskirt and a black button-up sweater.
Other athletes at the show included Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, Houston Texans wide receiver Stefon Diggs, and NBA star Victor Wembanyama.
