Gabby Thomas got engaged to her boyfriend, Spencer McManes, in a private setting on the rooftop of an Airbnb they had rented just before the start of her 2025 track season. Following the proposal, she shared glimpses of this in a joint post, where prominent figures like Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian, Suni Lee, Masai Russell, and Junelle Bromfield congratulated her on this special milestone.
Thomas and McManes began their relationship in the fall of 2022 and kept it low-key, not being too public about it on social media. After the conclusion of the Paris Olympics, the two vacationed in the Maldives, where they stayed at Joali Being Resort.
In a joint Instagram post first shared by Vogue Weddings, Thomas could be seen posing for an adorable picture with fiancé Spencer McManes, the founder of the non-alcoholic seltzer brand Kaviva, as they wore matching white outfits. The multiple-time World Championships medalist could also be seen flaunting a diamond ring.
