Love is in full swing at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo. From Jean-Luc Baker’s Valentine’s Day engagement to Olivia Smart, to Ukrainian skier Kateryna Kotsar’s finish-line surprise by her boyfriend, romance is stealing the spotlight. Now, USA Women’s Hockey captain Hilary Knight and speed skater Brittani Bowe have added their own headline, announcing their engagement in a touching full-circle moment of their Olympic love story.
As Knight plays in what she’s calling her final Olympic chapter, she has her loudest supporter by her side, someone who has known and lived through the same experience. Standing just off the ice rink is her fiancée, Brittani Bowe.
