This year’s Olympics has brought out all the romantics in sport, and the crowds are loving it.
We’ve already witnessed one proposal during the women’s rugby competition, and now a second one has occurred.
Chinese diver He Zi won a silver medal in the women’s three-metre springboard at the Rio Olympics on Sunday when she received more good news, the pleasant surprise of a proposal from her boyfriend.
Qin Kai went onto the stage after the end of the ceremony, and proposed to his girlfriend, in front of the massive crowd and the global tv audience.
“We’ve been dating for six years, but I didn’t expect him to propose today,” Zi said.
“He said a lot of things, made a lot of promises, but I think the thing that touched me the most is I think this is the guy I can trust for the rest of my life.”
With an Olympic medal and a proposal in one day, Zi is pretty much living the life.
