Dennis Rodman says, “I will keep trying,” in an apology to his estranged daughter Trinity.

Dennis Rodman has publicly apologized to his estranged daughter, Trinity Rodman, after the U.S. soccer star criticized him on the Call Her Daddy podcast for being an absent father. In an emotional Instagram post, Rodman expressed his regret and reiterated his love for his children.

“I will try even when it’s difficult and if it takes a long time,” he wrote. Rodman said he often tells Trinity how proud he is, whether through calls or voicemails, and shared his wish for his kids to call or visit him. “Hopefully one day I can get that. I’m here and I’m still trying,” he added.

Trinity, an Olympic gold medalist and Washington Spirit forward, alleged that her father only makes appearances when cameras are involved. She pointed out that after Dennis attended her NWSL match in 2021—where they were photographed together—he disappeared for three years.

Rodman countered by claiming he watches Trinity play from a distance. He revealed that he once flew in to support her but stayed in his hotel because he was advised not to attend due to his company. “So I watched you from my hotel balcony just to make everybody happy,” he explained.

Trinity has yet to respond to her father’s post. The emotional exchange underscores the complexities of their relationship, with Dennis publicly reaffirming his commitment to mending their bond.
