"The American star left Tofane with something precious anyway: an engagement ring. Johnson's longtime boyfriend, Connor Watkins, proposed to her near the finish line while surrounded by members of the U.S. Ski Team. Reciting lyrics from the Taylor Swift song The Alchemy, Watkins slipped a ring of blue and white sapphires set in white gold on the ring finger of Johnson's left hand."
"She tearfully accepted, then turned the ring toward the sea of cameras to celebrate a dream that turned into reality. It felt fitting to combine two of my loves, Johnson said. It's a special place at the Olympics. I feel like there's a lot of mystique around it. She then added with a laugh, Also you get free photography. The two"
Breezy Johnson did not win a medal in the women's super-G but received an engagement at the finish area from longtime boyfriend Connor Watkins. Watkins proposed while reciting lyrics from Taylor Swift's "The Alchemy" and placed a blue-and-white sapphire ring set in white gold on Johnson's left hand. Johnson accepted tearfully, showed the ring to cameras, and called the moment fitting because the Olympics combined two of her loves. The couple met on a dating app, and Watkins only learned of Johnson's elite skiing status during their first date. Johnson crashed earlier in the race but walked away unharmed; the proposal came about an hour later.
