Video: Olympic Gold Medalist Lilly King Gets Engaged at US Swimming Trials

U.S. Olympic swimmer Lilly King got engaged Thursday during the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials.

King's fiancé proposed after she qualified to represent Team USA in the 200-meter breaststroke at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

King already qualified for her first Olympic event, the 100-meter breaststroke, during an earlier race at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.

She is now become the first U.S. swimmer to swim both the 100- and 200-meter breaststroke at three consecutive Olympic Games.

King heads to Paris already having won five Olympic medals, including golds in the 100-meter breaststroke and 4x100 medley relay at the 2016 Rio Olympics.

She also claimed silver medals in the relay and the 200-meter breaststroke at the 2020 Tokyo Games, where she also won bronze in the 100-meter breaststroke.

King recorded the all-time record for the 100-meter breaststroke with a time of 1:04.13, a standard set in 2017 that still stands today.

The former Indiana swimmer has stated that she does not plan to compete in the 2028 Los Angeles Games, David Woods reported for IndyStar. If that holds true, King has made her final Olympic trials a memorable one.
