Fact Check: Did Myles Garrett Get Engaged to Chloe Kim?

Myles Garrett and Chloe Kim, one of the most talked-about sports couples at present, were first publicly linked in November. Since then, Garrett, the face of the Cleveland Browns defense, and Kim, a two-time Winter Olympics gold medalist for Team USA, have shared affectionate social media moments.

They have shown support for each other’s career pursuits and embraced the spotlight as a budding sports power couple. But has the couple taken the next step in their relationship?

The Claim: Online chatter has picked up with posts suggesting that Myles Garrett and Chloe Kim have gotten engaged.

Source of the claim: It began from a social media post which urged users to hit “LIKE to congratulate #Browns Myles Garrett on his engagement to Chloe Kim.” It implied the NFL star had proposed to Kim.

The post included an image suggesting the couple had taken the next step in their relationship. Given their high profiles, the rumored engagement quickly generated buzz.

Verdict: False. There is no credible evidence that suggests Myles Garrett and Chloe Kim are engaged. No reputable sports or entertainment outlet has reported it either.

First, the image circulating alongside the claim appears to be doctored. Online commenters quickly pointed out irregularities and questioned its authenticity.

Second, neither Garrett nor Kim has made any announcement on their verified social media accounts. Considering how openly they have shared their relationship, from Valentine’s Day tributes to playful comment exchanges, it would be highly unusual for them not to confirm their engagement.

The timeline also raises skepticism. The couple has only been publicly dating since November. While that does not rule out a proposal, there have been no hints, interviews, or reports suggesting it was coming. One X user summed up the general sentiment bluntly: “We’ve only known about them dating since November, so I’m not buying it at all.”

Recent posts from both athletes further contradict the claim. On Valentine’s Day, Kim shared photos of Garrett wearing a custom T-shirt she gifted him that read: “I [heart] my super hot, beautiful girlfriend. So please stay away from me.” She captioned the post playfully: “Blinked and suddenly I had a Valentine. And yes, I bought him the shirt.”

The engagement rumor surfaced shortly after Garrett publicly supported Kim during her recent Winter Olympics appearance. He was seen cheering her on and even went viral for wearing custom gear in support of her competition.

Their visible affection and mutual encouragement likely fueled fan excitement and made the fabricated engagement post easier to believe at first glance. However, enthusiasm does not equal confirmation.
