The Chinese Olympian won mixed doubles gold with her player partner Zheng Siwei at the 2024 Paris Olympic on Friday (Aug 2).
But that wasn't the only highlight of the day for her.
Moments after the medal ceremony concluded, her boyfriend Liu Yuchen, who is a men's doubles Tokyo silver medallist, waited by the sidelines with a bouquet of flowers for her.
Little did the 30-year-old expect that he would pull out a proposal ring, as he got down on one knee and popped the question.
The moment Liu did so, a full house at the Porte de La Chapelle Arena erupted with joy as a shocked Huang said yes.
