Former Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy has achieved a lot in the last few weeks. The NFL hopeful led the Wolverines to their first national title since 1997 just under two weeks ago, and now, he has another big announcement to make that has nothing to do with football.
McCarthy’s longtime girlfriend, Katya Kuropas, took to Instagram to share some adorable snaps of the couple, revealing that the star signal-caller had popped the question to her. Of course, she said yes.
Here is what J.J McCarthy's girlfriend Katya Kuropas had to say as she got engaged with the Michigan Wolverines’ natty-winning quarterback.
“Me, You & Markley Forever & Ever.”

McCarthy has been dating Kuropas for half a decade, and she has been his support system throughout his college career. The couple has shared many adorable moments, but the latest one trumps everything.
Half a decade of togetherness for J.J. McCarthy and Katya Kuropas
J.J. McCarthy and Katya Kuropas have been together since their high school days in Illinois. But he revealed the relationship publicly after committing to the Michigan Wolverines in 2019. However, after passing out of the Nazareth Academy, the couple joined rival schools.
While the quarterback went to be a Wolverine (and a legendary one at that), his girlfriend chose to be a Spartan and joined Michigan State. But their relationship kept going forward at their pace.
Despite being a Spartan, the 20-year-old was a regular at the Wolverines games supporting her boyfriend. She was there for J.J. McCarthy’s first collegiate touchdown and attended the national championship game.
The quarterback will be heading to the NFL draft in a few months, and she is bound to cheer for him, now as a fiancée.
