Figure skater Adam Rippon announced his engagement to long-term boyfriend Jussi-Pekka Kajaala in an incredibly sweet Instagram post.
Rippon, who is the first openly gay man to represent the USA in the Winter Olympics, posted the news yesterday (11 February).
Rippon and Kajaala proposed to each another while they were staying in Finland this winter. The gold medallist wrote: “JP and I didn’t get to see each other for almost all of 2020 because of the pandemic.
When there was finally a chance for me to go and see him in Finland, I jumped at it. “I was there for a little over two months.
