On Track To Say “I Do”
Track and field stars Noah Lyles and Junelle Bromfield are officially on the run to forever, and they’re letting the world in on their journey to the altar with a stunning pre-wedding photoshoot for Essence. The couple, who have been going strong both on and off the track, seemingly served elegance in the shoot. From candid moments to perfectly styled poses, their chemistry appeared undeniable, and fans are here for all of it.
Noah, a world champion sprinter, and Junelle, a Jamaican 400m Olympian, first connected through their shared passion for track, but their relationship quickly blossomed beyond the sport. In their Essence feature, they opened up about balancing love and career, and how they’ve built a foundation rooted in friendship. They’ve both conquered the podium, and another victory will be saying “I do.”
When asked about their relationship, Lyles said, “I was afraid of losing our friendship because a lot of people date as friends, and that ruined their friendship, but I knew we had chemistry, so I was willing to take a risk.”

No details have been revealed yet about the location or guest list, but one thing’s clear—this wedding will be nothing short of iconic.
