Who doesn’t love such a high-profile love connection?
In February, star running back Christian McCaffrey nearly clinched a Super Bowl victory with the San Francisco 49ers, but they were narrowly defeated 25-22 in an overtime battle against the Kansas City Chiefs. However, in a joyful twist, McCaffrey celebrated a different kind of milestone recently.

This past weekend, the NFL standout married Olivia Culpo, a former Miss Universe, in a festive ceremony in Rhode Island—a place Culpo affectionately refers to as the “best state in the world.” The couple, who began their romance in 2019 and got engaged in April of the previous year, also chose Rhode Island for their engagement celebration last summer.
McCaffrey’s personal achievements this year paralleled his professional successes. He was not only a crucial player in his team’s journey to the Super Bowl, where he made history by being the first to record 75 rushing and 75 receiving yards in the Super Bowl, but he also earned several accolades. Last season, he was named NFL Offensive Player of the Year, a first-team All-Pro selection, and led the NFL in rushing yards. Additionally, he graced the cover of “Madden NFL 25.”

The wedding itself was a spectacle of elegance and joy. Culpo chose a long-sleeve Dolce & Gabbana ball gown for the occasion, describing it as embodying timelessness and elegance—qualities she felt resonated with McCaffrey’s perceptions of beauty. Frequently seen supporting McCaffrey from the sidelines, Culpo’s presence at his games has been a testament to their supportive partnership.
