After Breezy Johnson got engaged at the 2026 Winter Olympics using a Taylor Swift lyric, the Life of a Showgirl singer celebrated the proposal.
Breezy Johnson Gets Engaged to Connor Watkins at Olympics 2026 Finish Line
Taylor Swift is enchanted by one Olympian’s love story.
The “Opalite” singer celebrated the engagement of Team USA’s Breezy Johnson and her fiancé Connor Watkins, who proposed at the 2026 Milano Cortina Games using lyrics from Taylor’s song “The Alchemy.”
Indeed, moments after the alpine skier crashed during the super-G event Feb. 12, Connor met her at the finish line where he popped the question with a ring box engraved with the final line of the chorus, “Honestly, who are we to fight the alchemy?”
“Hey guys... meet Connor! My ex boyfriend! And current fiancé!!!” Breezy wrote on Instagram alongside pictures of the moment. “Thank you to everyone who made this moment possible. It was everything I ever dreamed of. Kind of like Connor!”
And Taylor seemed to like Connor’s style, as she chimed in with more apt lyrics from the track inspired by Travis Kelce, writing in the comments section, “‘Where’s the trophy? He just comes running over to me’ CONGRATULATIONS!!!”
Of course, Breezy—who won Team USA’s first Olympic gold of this year’s Games earlier in the week—was down bad after getting noticed by the “All Too Well” singer.
“I don't know what's better Olympic gold or this comment,” the 30-year-old responded before referencing one of Taylor’s favorite activities. “Sourdough engagement gift please???? would love to teach you to ski.”

While it remains to be seen if Breezy and Taylor have scheduled some ski lessons, it’s clear that the 14-time Grammy winner is a big supporter of the Olympic Games. In fact, she gave a special shoutout to the U.S. athletes during the kickoff to the Opening Ceremony.
"I just wanted to say thank you," the 36-year-old said in a pre-recorded video. “Getting to learn your stories and see everything that you’ve sacrificed and all your determination and hard work and passion and everything that's gotten you to this point where you’re so excellent at something, it’s just really inspiring.”

Taylor concluded, “I am very grateful for everything you’ve done to get to this point in your life and grateful that you’ve brought us all along with you on this journey so we get to watch you do this."
