Coach-player relationships

There have been plenty of coach-player relationships in the past.
They just happened between male coaches and female athletes. Women's soccer stars Brandi Chastain, Danielle Fotopoulos and Julie Foudy all married their former college coaches.
The salient question, I think, is whether those relationships began while those players were being coached by their future husbands. In one or two of these cases, there have been whispers that they were, but nothing definite.
