On Oct. 12, Lyles, the track and field star who won gold for Team USA in the 100m at the 2024 Paris Olympics, surprised Bromfield by organizing what appeared to be a proposal party, according to an Instagram video shared to the Olympian’s page.
Dressed sharply in a black blazer and black-and-gold dress pants, the 27-year-old led the 26-year-old beauty into a room adorned with candles and a stunning rose display that read, “Will you marry me?” Roses surrounded the gorgeous sign, adding to the romantic affair, as Lyles got down on one knee with a shiny engagement ring in hand.
Bromfield, who also competed in the Paris Olympics, running for Team Jamaica and winning a bronze medal at the 2020 Olympics, looked both shocked and overjoyed as she accepted Lyles’ proposal. The track and field star wore a sparkling silver dress that beautifully highlighted her rich melanin, paired with shiny silver heels. After Bromfield said, “I do,” the couple shared a sweet kiss before smiling for the camera.
Lyles captioned the heartwarming post;
”To My Future Wife I Will Love You Forever.”
A follow-up photo carousel captured the duo celebrating their exciting news with friends and family. In a joint message, the pair thanked their loved ones for celebrating their engagement.
“Thank you guys for being apart of our moment,” the lovebirds penned.

How did Lyles and Bromfield meet?
In a June interview on the Fast Lane Lifestyle podcast, Lyles and Bromfield shared the story of their initial meeting. Lyles mentioned that Bromfield first “slid” into his DMs back in 2017. However, their hectic schedules made it difficult for them to connect in person. When they initially tried dating, the romantic spark just wasn’t there, so they chose to stay friends. Several years later, they decided to give love another shot and have been inseparable ever since.
“We’re going to grow old together, and it’s going to be forever,” Lyles told the Fast Lane Lifestyle hosts during their appearance.
The couple shared the news of their relationship on Instagram in December 2022.
Aw, that’s so sweet!
Congrats to Lyles and Bromfield!
