In ‘non traditional’ move Lindsey Vonn goes social with P.K. Subban marriage proposal

Lindsey Vonn popped the question to hockey star P.K. Subban.

«Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone!! On our 2 year anniversary, in a «non traditional» move, I asked PK to marry me and he said, Yes,» Vonn tweeted on Christmas Day. «Yes [bashful emoji]! Women aren’t the only ones who should get engagement rings!»

The former ski racer closed the tweet with the hashtags «MerryChristmas» and «equality.»

Vonn linked a picture of herself and Subban with the ring, with the couple wearing matching striped pyjamas in front of a Christmas tree with three dogs in the foreground. She also posted a close-up of Subban flashing the ring, with the words «Drip drip»and a blue teardrop.

Vonn also said on social media in August that they were engaged.

The 35-year-old Vonn recently retired from a skiing career that included three Olympic medals, four overall World Cup titles and 82 World Cup race wins, a record for a woman.

The 30-year-old Subban won the 2013 Norris Trophy with Montreal as the NHL’s top defenceman. He was traded to New Jersey from Nashville in June.

Vonn had a high-profile relationship with Tiger Woods. She previously was married to former ski racer Thomas Vonn, and kept his last name after they separated.
