Olivia Culpo gushes about fiance Christian McCaffrey after 49ers NFC win
Olivia Culpo couldn't be more proud of her fiancé, Christian McCaffreyas he prepares for his first Super Bowl.
“You deserve it all Christian ❤️ I love you so much,” Culpo, 31, captioned an Instagram video after the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Detroit Lions 34-31 in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday, January 28.
The clip showed Culpo and McCaffrey, 27, embracing on the court and bumping chests during a sweet postgame moment. The running back wore an NFC Championship hat and T-shirt, while Culpo wore a black jacket with McCaffrey's last name and jersey number on the back.
“Watching the love of your life achieve his dream is the best feeling in the world,” she added in the caption posted above the video.
Before kickoff on Sunday, Culpo gave fans a glimpse of her chic outfit as she posed in the end zone and later took a selfie from her seat. She prayed with her fellow 49ers fans in an additional Instagram Story photo.
Culpo became emotional as the game came to a close and the 49ers officially clinched their spot in Super Bowl LVIII. “NINERS WIN,” she captioned an Instagram Story video, in which she gently dabbed her eyes and clapped in the stands. “Super Bowl-bound baby!!!!!!”
As the festivities continued, Culpo joined her future mother-in-law, Lisa, on the field to support McCaffrey and his teammates. “Mom, we're going to Vegas!!!!” Culpo teased via social media.
McCaffrey and Culpo's romance began in June 2019 following her divorce from the former NFL star Danny Amendola. The couple initially kept their relationship relatively private until they attended the NFL Honors ceremony together in February 2020. McCaffrey proposed in April 2023 after nearly four years of dating.
Prior to their engagement, Culpo gave We weekly exclusive insight into what makes her relationship with McCaffrey a success. 'We both understand it very much [our] schedules and the way things have to work for now, and that definitely helps,” she shared Us in November 2022. “I think if you're on the same page with that… you can really make it work.”
Culpo wasn't the only partner celebrating the big 49ers' victory on Sunday. Kristin Juszczyk and her husband, 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk, shared a kiss in the locker room after the game. (Kristin is getting attention this season for her custom NFL gear, for which she recently designed Kansas City Chiefs jackets Taylor Swift And Brittany Mahomes.)
The 49ers will take on the Chiefs on Sunday, February 11, in a rematch of the 2020 Super Bowl, in which the Chiefs took home the Lombardi Trophy after a 31-20 victory. (The 49ers last won the Super Bowl in 1995.)
