Richardson and Coleman are rumoured to have started dating in mid-2023, but officially made their relationship public at the 2025 Super Bowl in February.

Since then, the lovebirds have been almost inseparable and have attended every track meet together, openly supporting each other. Considering they're both track stars with busy schedules, both have stayed true to their affection for one another, even through the rough patch of a rumoured breakup last month.

This season has been a torrid one for the pair, with Coleman yet to record a win or sub-10s time in all his races, while Richardson suffered an injury back in February, which was a major setback in her preparations to compete more consistently.

The power couple will compete in their respective 100m events at the Prefontaine Classic, aiming to finally get their season started with a win as they chase back-to-back record victories at the prestigious meet.
