A Brazilian women’s rugby sevens player has become the first athlete to receive a marriage proposal at the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games.

Isadora Cerullo, 25, was a member of the Brazil squad that narrowly missed out on reaching the knockout rounds.

After the medal ceremony following the first women’s rugby sevens final in Olympic history on Monday had ended, Marjorie Enya, Cerullo’s girlfriend and a manager at Deodoro Stadium, asked her to marry her.

“As soon as I knew she was in the squad I thought I have to make this special,” she said. “I know rugby people are amazing and they would embrace it.”

The couple had been together for two years.

“She is the love of my life,” Enya told the BBC. “The Olympic Games can look like closure but for me it’s starting a new life with someone.

“I wanted to show people that love wins.”

Cerullo grew up in North Carolina and holds dual citizenship of Brazil and the United States.

Though she had never lived in Brazil before, she moved with Enya to São Paulo to focus on making the women’s rugby sevens squad for the Games.

According to Outsports, there are at least 45 publicly out lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex athletes at the Rio games, as well as three coaches.
Several out athletes are also taking part in the Paralympics.

No wonder the Brazilian Olympic football team has not scored any goal.... that's why...OK... Good for them but not for us.

Iranu ! Yeye fawols

it's der choice, na dem sabi.

Just imagine!

Awon werey sneh

If they can maintain their lifestyle without adopting innocent unsuspecting ignorant kids that would be great. Frankly these people aren't normal, I wouldn't give a fvck if not for the kids they will either procreate or adopt.

passyhansome:
This is appalling I do hope you get pregnant and give birth. Nonsense

The women can still get artificial inseminated and have kids, The gay couples are the worst. They have no choice but to adopt kids, Disgusting. Imagine a kid growing up with two fathers, Imagine the psychological torture.

Everything created by God obeys HIM except Man! I don't care but this is not right!!!

Yeye dey smell

STUPID MOTHERFUCKERS, IDIOT

When I saw 'asked her to marry her' I thought it was a typo. Had to pause reading to check the video/pictures

Sh*t

Now I can't just allow my children watch the Rio Olympics without some guidance.

Their life, but the moment the global media puts it on screen, it became OUR lives.

Jesus!
