Breezy Johnson Gets Engaged at 2026 Winter Olympics: Who Is Her Future Husband?
Breezy Johnson didn’t have her best super-G race during the 2026 Winter Olympics, but she had something even better waiting for her at the bottom of the mountain! After Johnson crashed in the super giant slalom event, her boyfriend, Connor Watkins, asked her to marry him.
It was Johnson’s final event of the 2026 Games (she previously won gold in the women’s downhill and finished fourth in team alpine skiing). Watkins popped the question with a piece of wood that featured the Taylor Swift lyrics, “Honestly, who are we to fight the alchemy?”
Watkins admitted that he had been planning the proposal for a year, per NBC News. “I may have told him that I just always kind of had the dream of getting engaged at the Olympics,” Johnson teased. Scroll down for everything we know about Johnson’s relationship and more.
