According to sources close to the couple, the proposal took place at a quiet lakeside resort in Iowaâone of Caitlinâs favorite places to escape the spotlight. What was meant to be a simple weekend getaway turned into the beginning of forever. Clarkâs boyfriend reportedly spent months planning every detail, working with her family and closest friends to craft a moment as thoughtful and meaningful as the basketball star herself.
âI didnât want it to be flashyâI wanted it to be her,â he shared in a heartfelt social media post that instantly went viral. âCaitlinâs the most down-to-earth person I know. She deserves a proposal thatâs intimate, personal, and rooted in everything weâve built together.â
The proposal included a custom floral arrangement using her favorite flowersâwhite peonies and lavenderâand a candlelit path lined with handwritten letters recounting their most memorable moments. The final note, waiting at the end of the path, simply read:Â âItâs always been you. Will you marry me?â
Witnesses say Clark was visibly emotional, wiping tears from her eyes before saying a resounding âyesââa moment caught on camera and already making waves online. Fans flooded the coupleâs announcement with messages of congratulations, calling the moment âpure magicâ and âthe love story we didnât know we needed.â

Teammates and fellow athletes quickly joined in on the celebration. Angel Reese reposted the announcement with a message that read, âBig love for you, sis! You deserve all the happiness đâ while Sabrina Ionescu added, âThis made me cry and I donât even cry. Congratulations, Queen đ.â
While Caitlin has not yet issued an official statement, she did post a single emoji to her Instagram Storyâa sparkling diamond ringâover a photo of the sunset where the proposal took place.
As Clark continues to take the WNBA by storm, breaking records and reshaping the landscape of womenâs sports, fans now have another reason to cheerânot just for the player, but for the woman whose love story just took its most beautiful turn yet.
