Coming out of a toxic relationship and finding the love of your life? What more could Sha’Carri Richardson ask for? Celebrating her boyfriend’s 30th birthday on March 6 was something Sha’Carri couldn’t let pass without making it beautiful. Even though she admitted she was “nervous“, she pulled off a thoughtful celebration that left her man feeling all kinds of grateful. “Grateful for it all!!” he said, clearly touched by the effort. It all started when Sha’Carri sent a sweet shoutout filled with love and good vibes to her guy, Coleman.
On March 6, Sha’Carri Richardson went all out to celebrate her boyfriend, Christian Coleman, and she didn’t hold back. First up — a cake, two mysterious envelopes labeled “Card 1” and “Card 2,” and a secret gift that’s still under wraps. Whatever’s in that mystery package must be good! But Sha’Carri didn’t just stop at gifts. She was clearly feeling the love too, admitting, “I can keep posting all day.” And she pretty much did.
The 100m Olympic silver medalist started with a sweet Instagram story of them both wearing black outfits, simply captioned “Birthday.” Then came the fun! Her stories were full of laughs, including a hilarious clip of her World Champion boyfriend attempting (and failing) to eat a display burger through a hole in a table. Just when you thought that was it, Sha’Carri brought the feels. In one story, she wrote, “Happy Birthday to My Person, thank you for being You.” And to top it all off, she teased even bigger plans by sharing a solo pic of Coleman with the caption, “Birthday trip coming soon.” Moreover, the Texas native is just one of us when planning surprises– anxious and high strung!
