Pablo Simonet proposes Maria Compoy at Paris Olympics 2024

WATCH: Marriage proposal steals spotlight at Paris Olympics 2024 as Argentine handball star Pablo Simonet asks for hockey player Maria Campoy's hand

Paris Olympics 2024 saw its first romantic tale as the two-time Pan American Games gold medalist handball player from Argentina, Pablo Simonet proposed to his long-time girlfriend, Maria Campoy, a hockey player from the Argentinian Women's hockey team. This came during a photo shoot of their combined teams before the official start of the Olympic games.

It was a heartwarming moment for both Simonet and Campoy in this beautiful city of Paris with their teammates and friends cheering for them as they stepped towards a wholesome phase of their lives.

Simonet took to her official Instagram handle to share the video of the proposal with a heartwarming caption. He wrote:

"The woman of my life gave me the yes 🤩 ❤️ In the dream place, where everything came from and where we fought so much to be. Happiness is total, thank you friends, and few accomplices for making this special and being able to keep this forever. Paris is always a good idea."

Simonet and Campoy have been romantically involved for the last eight years and have also played together in the Olympics during the 2016 Rio Olympics.

Pablo Simonet and Maria Campoy eye maiden medal glory at Paris Olympics 2024

Both Pablo Simonet and Maria Campoy are prominent players of their respective handball and hockey teams. However, both the players are still to win an Olympic medal in their careers.

Even though the Argentine Women's hockey team won the silver medal last time around in Tokyo, Campoy wasn't a part of that team. Thus, both Simonet and Campoy will strive hard to drive their team towards an Olympic medal this time around.

However, the path that lies ahead of them will be quite challenging as some of the top teams of the world will fair up with the Argentine side in the coming days of the Paris Olympics.
