There have been 5 (!) Olympic athlete engagements in Paris during the games

The City of Love just got a whole lot more romantic! Throughout the Olympic Games, contenders from all over the world take centre stage to represent their countries in a series of events that are the result of years of practice. And while each competition is a showcase of athletic abilities, this year’s players also took it upon themselves to display a more intimate side. 🥺❤️ Enter: a buncha proposals that went down at the 2024 Paris Olympics and melted our hearts.

From French skiff sailors Sarah Steyaert and Charline Picon (aka “Mama Team” due to both athletes bringing their children to sporting events) getting proposed to by their respective partners after winning Olympic bronze, to Liu Yuchen getting down on one knee in the wake of Huang Ya Qiong landing the gold medal in badminton, and Team USA rower Justin Best enlisting the help of Today to pop the question to his girlfriend of nine years in a heartfelt moment (did we mention it was live?!?!), here are some of our absolute fave proposals to go down at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

And dw! Because love is c-l-e-a-r-l-y in the air, we’ll be using this gallery to keep track of every single engagement that hopefully goes down in the coming days until the Olympics officially comes to an end on *checks calendar* 11th August, so definitely come back and check this list often! Now if you’ll excuse us, we’ll be out here manifesting that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce somehow miraculously make an appearance at the competition series, the celebs get swept up by all the romance, and they end up on this very list. 🕯🕯🕯*le sigh* A girl can dream!
