Olympian Gus Kenworthy Engaged to Andrew Rigby

Olympian Gus Kenworthy Recalls Miley Cyrus Romance Rumors Before Coming Out as GayGus Kenworthy is skiing into a new chapter with Andrew Rigby. Indeed, the Olympic skier, 34, traded his usual snowy slopes for the seven seas when he proposed to his partner of two years. Taking Rigby on an excursion off the coast of Mallorca, Spain, he set up a picnic for the finance executive—fit with extra sweet margaritas “because that’s how Andrew orders them”—and popped the question on Aug. 4. “We took a private dinghy from the pier at the St. Regis where we were having a cocktail by the beach at the Mar Sea Club,” Kenworthy recalled to People in an interview published on Aug. 6. “I told Andrew I was taking him on a little adventure. Once we got to the island we climbed off the dinghy and hiked up to the top of the cliffs.” After the 43-year-old said yes, the silver medalist had another surprise waiting for his now-fiancé: An engagement party on a chartered boat with their closest pals. “Six of our friends were hiding on it,” Kenworthy detailed, “waiting to surprise Andrew and celebrate with us!”Though the couple first met over a decade ago in Sydney, where the athlete had a speaking engagement, it wasn’t until March 2024 that their slope to forever began. They were formally introduced at a mutual friend’s birthday party, leading to romance—which they hard launched five months after meeting. As for whether Rigby anticipated the proposal? He was completely surprised by the whole gesture, as they had been jet-setting across the world and needed a break from the grind.The Hapa Blonde/GC Images“We’ve talked about this a lot obviously, but I thought this was just a relaxing vacation,” the fashion executive shared with People. “To say I was shocked was an understatement. And then to see our friends there immediately after Gus proposed? Wow.” And the couple aren’t the only ones who have taken the next step in their relationship recently.
