Olympic Medalist Chloe Kim Shares Funny Story of Mistaking Myles Garrett for Martin Garrix

Chloe Kim Mistakes Myles Garrett for Martin Garrix

Olympic snowboarding champion Chloe Kim recently appeared on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' and shared a hilarious anecdote about how she met her current boyfriend, Cleveland Browns star defensive end Myles Garrett. Kim admitted that she is not a huge football fan and was invited to a game by a mutual friend who told her, 'Our client's playing.' Kim misheard this as 'Martin Garrix,' expecting to attend an electronic dance music (EDM) concert.

Instead of a concert, she witnessed Garrett making significant plays on the field. Kim joked that she was cheering for the Los Angeles Rams, waiting for the DJ to appear at halftime. As she later found out, Garrett was having a standout game, putting pressure on quarterbacks and eventually winning the NFL Defensive Player of the Year award.

Kim and Garrett eventually met and started talking, leading to a strong connection. Garrett has since been supportive of Kim, attending major events like the Winter Olympics. When asked if Garrett has tried snowboarding, Kim jokingly replied, 'No. He's not allowed to,' hinting at the Browns' preference to keep their star player healthy on the football field.

The couple also addressed recent engagement rumors sparked by an AI-generated image showing Garrett proposing to Kim during the Winter Games. Kim clarified that the image was fake, pointing out inconsistencies such as her already wearing a ring and Garrett wearing sunglasses during the 'proposal.'
