Torri Huske, a Team USA swimmer, has confirmed that dating apps are being used in the Olympic Village during the 2024 Paris Games. On August 6, Huske shared this information exclusively with *Us Weekly*.
What happened?
Huske, 21, revealed that she and her suitemates tried to get others to download dating apps so they could see who was on them. However, Huske didn't add any apps to her phone because she's dating a swimmer from Stanford University.
Why it matters for Torri Huske
Huske likes to look at who's on the apps and if her fellow athletes found anyone special. She mentioned that there were people from different countries on the apps, but it was also funny to find someone from the same team.
What comes next?
With serious training commitments and jam-packed schedules, some may question if it's hard for Olympians to be in relationships. From Huske's perspective, support and encouragement from a partner go a long way when life gets busy.
Huske's boyfriend couldn't make it to Paris to see her win three medals, but he has been able to watch her race in the middle of work. They actually planned some of their business meetings around her swims, and they would watch them in the office.
In just one week, Huske won gold in both the 100-meter butterfly and 4×100-meter medley relay. She also earned a silver medal in the 100-meter freestyle on August 6.
Huske said it's also the small things — like having a close shave — that could make all the difference in what medal you can take home. She recommended Gillette Venus' Deluxe Smooth Sensitive Razor, saying that shaving is really important in swimming.
Everyone does it for race day just because every hundredth of a second counts. Huske thinks that every little thing that you can do to control outside of the actual race will help.
Huske's boyfriend has been super supportive, and she thinks that's what makes their relationship work despite the time difference and his internship. They just have to figure out what times work for them.
And Huske's hard work paid off, as she won three medals in the 2024 Paris Games. Her boyfriend's support and her own dedication to training made it possible for her to achieve this success.
So Huske will continue to focus on her swimming career, and her relationship will likely remain a priority for her. With her medals and her partnership with Gillette Venus, Huske is sure to remain in the spotlight.
Huske's experience in the Olympic Village is just one example of how athletes can balance their personal and professional lives. And for Huske, it's clear that her relationship and her swimming career are both important to her.
But Huske's success is not just about her relationship or her medals. It's also about the hard work and dedication she puts into her training every day. This is what makes her a successful athlete, and it's what will continue to drive her success in the future.
Huske's story is an inspiration to many, and it shows that with the right support and dedication, anything is possible. And for Torri Huske, the future is bright, both in and out of the pool.
