Olympian Gabby Thomas is adding some sparkle beyond the medals!
The Olympic sprinter’s longtime boyfriend Spencer McMane popped the big question! The two began dating in the fall of 2022, according to Vogue.
The proposal was intimate and a complete surprise for Gabby, who hadn’t caught onto the signs leading up to the big moment. It all took place at an Airbnb they’d rented in Travis Heights for a staycation before Gabby got back into action.
Their love story has a sweet and a tad bit of savory beginning. Thomas, who followed McMane for his quality pizza coverage, was immediately met with a DM by McMane.
I was like, ‘That’s crazy! Gabby Thomas?” he says. “I immediately DM’d her and asked, ‘What did I do to earn a follow?” Spencer confirmed with Vogue.
The connection between the two was fresh and exciting, and they grew close. McMane even recounts getting ready to become a supportive partner as Gabby prepared for her competitions and the Olympics.
“We grew closer through it,” says Spencer. “Last season helped us solidify our relationship and work well as a team through the ups and downs.”
