Paris Olympics bronze medalist Yared Nuguse officially came out by sharing several photos with his boyfriend, Julian, on Instagram—and fans couldn't be happier for him.

Olympic bronze medalist Yared Nuguse officially came out of the closet with a sweet Instagram post introducing his boyfriend.

Nuguse, a middle-distance runner, is renowned for his achievements in the 1500-meter event and securing the bronze medal in the men’s 1500 meters at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.


Over the weekend, Nuguse shared a photo of himself and his beau and wrote in the caption:

"Introducing my boyfriend, Julian. Can’t believe we’re already one year in my love."

He cheekily added in parentheses:

"Don’t act so surprised."


The athletic community and fans widely embraced Nuguse's post celebrating the first anniversary with his love.

In March 2025, Nuguse set a new indoor mile world record, clocking 3:46.63 at the Millrose Games in New York and surpassing the previous record held since 2019.

In June 2024, Nuguse signed with Grand Slam Track (GST), Olympic gold champion Michael Johnson's innovative track league designed to maintain the sport's momentum beyond the Olympics.

Nuguse was born in Louisville, Kentucky, to Ethiopian parents. The 25-year-old is the fourth of six children.

With aspirations of becoming an orthodontist, Nuguse graduated in 2021 with a bachelor's in biochemistry and in 2022 with a master's degree in management.

He ultimately put aside his dental career to focus on professional running and has been winning at life ever since.

Welcome to the community, Yared! And happy one-year anniversary to you and your adorable Julian.❤️

MTG has promoted some antisemitic conspiracy theories in the past, like Jewish space lasers that control the weather or start wildfires, but this time people are calling Cruz out for reaching in an attempt to discredit the Georgia Republican and protect Trump from what's being concealed in FBI, Department of Justice, and court records relating to the indictment of Jeffrey Epstein on charges of sex trafficking of minors.
