and might represent opposing countries on the Olympic track, but they are one another’s biggest supporters.

“My girlfriend’s on [a] team as well, so we are training together and we’re competing most of the same day,” Lyles exclusively told Us Weekly in July 2024 ahead of his events at the Paris Olympics. “We have that mental space to be able to share with each other and continuously feed to each other.”

Lyles is a sprinter for Team USA, while Bromfield runs for Jamaica’s track and field squad. They have been together since 2022 and Lyles makes sure their relationship is a top priority over any type of notoriety.

“I’m learning on the fly. I already have my set rules: I don’t take pictures while I eat, and I don’t take pictures when I’m with my girlfriend and I don’t take pictures when I work out,” he told Us. “Other than that, everything is pretty free game, you know, I don’t have a problem with that, but when I am trying to duck my head low, I find myself now wearing a COVID mask. Sunglasses, a hat and a COVID mask gets the job done for a good amount [of fans].”

Sure enough, romantic feelings started to surface.

“We both knew that we liked each other, but she could never get a day off from MVP [Track Club] to come visit,” Lyles said during the episode. “I couldn’t come visit because I’d get what? A few hours? Then I’d have to jump back on a plane to get to Monday practice.”

Neither Lyles nor Bromfield wanted to skip training sessions, but they ultimately planned a date in 2018. The vibe “just didn’t click” and the pair decided to keep their bond platonic.

Bromfield expressed her appreciation in the comments section, writing, “Thank you baby For always supporting [me] long before we even started dating.”
