If you’ve been scrolling through your feed today, you might have seen a post that made your heart skip a beat: the “official” announcement that Cleveland Browns star Myles Garrett and Olympic gold medalist Chloe Kim are engaged. The post, featuring a cozy photo and a call to “LIKE to congratulate the happy couple,” spread like wildfire. But before you go buying a wedding gift, let’s hit the brakes.
It turns out the internet’s favorite new power couple isn’t headed down the aisle just yet. Here is the full story behind the facade.
The Myles Garrett & Chloe Kim “Engagement” Post is Fake—Here’s the Receipt
The rumor started on February 20, 2026, when a social media account posted a claim that Garrett had finally popped the question.
Because the two have been the “it” couple of the sports world lately especially with Myles cheering Chloe on at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy, fans were more than ready to believe it.
However, a quick “fact-check” reveals a different story. The image used in the viral post was actually fake. While it looked convincing at a glance, eagle-eyed fans and reporters quickly realized it wasn’t an official announcement from the athletes themselves.
While the chemistry between the NFL’s “Flash” and the Queen of the Halfpipe is undeniable, the timeline makes an engagement a bit of a stretch. The couple only went “Instagram official” in November 2025. Just days ago, on Valentine’s Day 2026, Chloe Kim posted a photo of Myles wearing a custom T-shirt she bought him. The shirt literally read:
If they were engaged, that shirt would have likely been retired for one that said “fiancée. ” In her own captions, Chloe has been playful about their status, even joking that she “hadn’t been asked” yet.
The reason this rumor took off so easily is that Myles and Chloe have been incredibly supportive of one another. Myles was just seen in the Italian Alps wearing custom gear to support Chloe’s silver-medal run. When you see that level of commitment, it’s easy for the internet to jump the gun and assume a ring is involved.
As of right now, Myles Garrett and Chloe Kim are still just boyfriend and girlfriend. They are clearly winning at the relationship game, but there are no wedding bells on the horizon just yet. In the world of social media, a “like” doesn’t always equal the truth sometimes it’s just a doctored photo and a lot of wishful thinking.
