Former Olympian Adam Rippon and his partner Jussi-Pekka “JP” Kajaala are engaged!
The 31-year-old figure skater shared the news on his Instagram, writing, “JP and I didn’t get to see each other for almost all of 2020 because of the pandemic. When there was finally a chance for me to go and see him in Finland, I jumped at it. I was there for a little over two months. While I was there, I would tell him about five million jokes that I would want to pitch during my 5 hour zoom meetings for our NBC comedy (hi, @billy4529 and @susankittenplan ). And he would drive me into the Finnish forest where I would attempt to try and “help” him shovel snow so he could keep working on the cottage he’s building. So, in between all that and binging the entire 4 seasons of The Crown, we bought ourselves some rings and said that magic word.. “duh!” We got ~*engaged*”
The couple were first linked in 2018.
Congratulations to the happy couple!
Check out some of their cute celebratory photos together that Adam posted along with the announcement!
