Inside Olympic gold medalist Tara Davis Woodhall's romance with Paralympian Hunter Woodhall

When Tara Davis Woodhall won her Olympic gold medal for Team U.S.A in the long jump, no one was happier for her than her husband Hunter Woodhall.

The moment she went to celebrate with him has gone viral on social media, as he could be seen exclaiming as he hopped with joy before she even came over, tears in his eyes as he raised his arms and cheered.

"You're the Olympic champion!" He yelled as she practically jumped into his arms and he caught her with ease. "I'm so proud of you," he added.

Clearly his wife's biggest fan, Hunter wore a white t-shirt with the words "TEAM TARA" emblazoned - and keen-eyed fans may have noticed a medallion hanging round his neck: it looked like his own bronze medal from the 2020 Summer Paralympics.

Hunter and Tara's relationship is pretty much the ultimate Olympic romance - here's everything you need to know about their adorable marriage.

Tara isn't the only athlete in their relationship, as Hunter is a track and field athlete who has won three Olympic medals. He made his Olympic debut in Rio 2016, where at aged 17 he won a bronze medal in the men's 400 meters and the silver medal in the men's 200 meters. He then won bronze at the Men's 400m T62 in the 2020 Summer Paralympics.

They were long distance high school sweethearts

Hunter and Tara met at a track meet in Pocatello, Idaho. Both had come from different states, as the Paralympian is from Utah while his wife grew up in Texas. At the time, they were high school athletes - and it was love at first sight.

She immediately approached him and gave him a hug, explaining: "I stepped onto the track and said, 'I don't know why I have to do this, but I have to give you a hug.'" That was the first time they talked.

Meanwhile, for Hunter, he remembered thinking: "I'm gonna marry that girl."

They stayed in touch over social media, and started dating that summer in June 2017. That fall, they both attended different colleges: Tara was at the University of Georgia, before she transferred to the University of Texas. Meanwhile, her future husband would attend the University of Arkansas.
