Noah Lyles has won titles and fan hearts simultaneously, with his stellar performances in 2023. A year earlier, he had already captured the heart of someone who goes beyond worldly wins. Junelle Bromfield, the Jamaican sprinter who nabbed the 4x100m relay bronze at the 2020 Summer Games, is Lyles’ girlfriend. This newsbreak may have shattered millions of hearts but it didn’t stop making its way to fans’ social feeds.

In August 2023, the couple celebrated their one-year partnership. The social caption of Bromfield was “Cheers to 7 years of friendship, 6 months of dating, 1 year of being your partner. And to forever loving you. #1yearanniversary”. 7 months into their 2nd year of partnership, the couple made fairytale headlines again. But theirs’ is not the usual Prince Charming and Stranded Princess kind of story.

Did Noah Lyles and his girlfriend break standards?

It’s not the princess in the passenger’s seat like what happens in the conventional folk tales. The 2020 Tokyo Olympics 200m bronze medalist resorted to his Instagram stories to celebrate his ‘passenger prince’ moment. Capping off the story as “Passenger prince that’s me”, the Olympian captured his girlfriend, gearing up to start the car, but her face shows that she was unprepared for the sudden camera pan.

But from her boyfriend’s voice, the excitement shone through. Last year, after celebrating their anniversary, the couple went on a trip to Jamaica. Fresh off the vacation, she has also proven herself as Lyles’ biggest cheerleader at the 2023 WAC, Hungary. Amid a tight schedule and training for the marquee event, the 26-year-old never skips family time. Especially when it comes to making his pillar of strength feel loved at every opportunity he gets. The couple surfaced on the Valentine’s week for a reason very close to their hearts.

Lyles left a love note for his love

“Happy Birthday to my amazing Girlfriend @junellebromfield 🎉🎉🎉I love you and you are so loved”, Noah Lyles capped off on Instagram. Donning funky clothes, the duo posed for the camera in style. Despite nabbing wins at major championships, Bromfield’s headline appearances skyrocketed after going public about her relationship with track star Lyles.

Usually competing in the 4x100m relay at the Olympic Games, whether she will be a part of the Olympic roster isn’t known. But coming to her boyfriend, he already eyes 4 golds at the Olympics. The 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay are the common in his purse. But his stint also has a new category this time, the 60m flat race.
