You’re Crazy”: Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone Revealed Coach Bobby’s Reaction to Her Unconventional Marriage Plans to NFL Star

“You’re Crazy”: Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone Revealed Coach Bobby’s Reaction to Her Unconventional Marriage Plans to NFL Star

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone and former NFL star Andre Levrone had what many might call a whirlwind romance. However, theirs didn’t quite fit the typical definition, as the couple is now happily married. Despite some initial doubts, they got engaged after eight months of dating. Equally unconventional was the timing of their wedding.

While Andre Levrone had pulled the curtains on his pro football career in 2020, McLaughlin-Levrone was just coming into her own. Winning gold medals and setting world records became the story of her professional life.

So it made sense that as she turned 22 on July 7, 2021, McLaughlin-Levrone was adding a second gold medal to her Tokyo Olympics tally – courtesy of the 4x400m final.

But after returning to the US and wanting to celebrate not just the Tokyo hardware but also her birthday, Sydney and her friends headed to Scottsdale, Arizona. And Andre Levrone? Well, he was in Maryland. Or so she thought. And then came the signs – knowing looks, giggles, and strange behavior. As she described in her book, watching her friends acting the way they were, McLaughlin-Levrone couldn’t help but think, “Is he close by?”

Sydney got more suspicious when a videographer showed up right before the group headed out for her birthday celebrations. As she sat in her car and drove to the destination, “I thought, I am literally driving to my proposal.” And that was exactly it.

A handwritten note by Andre and a nervous walk to the lawn later – accompanied by a few unwelcome thoughts (“He may not want to go through with it if I faceplant right now”) – she and Andre were engaged. And then came the wedding planning.
