Meet Sanya Richards, fiance of NFL star Aaron Ross. The two met in college at the University of Texas back in 2003.
After dating for 4 years, Sanya and Aaron got engaged in 2007. The couple plans to get married this year on Feb. 26, 2010 in Austin, Texas.
The wedding will be followed by a dinner for 300 and an after-party for 700, who will celebrate both the nuptials and Sanya’s birthday, which fall on the same day.
Guests will include Eli Manning, Michael Strahan, Deion Sanders, Dikembe Mutombo, and rappers The Game and Cam’ron and many more.
Peep the video below of Sanya and Aaron working out together.
Sanya Richards is a World Class Olympic track And field star, who competes internationally for the United States. She won two Olympic gold medals in the 4 × 400 metres relay at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece and the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China.
She also won an individual bronze medal at the 2008 Olympics, for the 400 m. She won a gold medal in the 2009 World Championships in Berlin in the 400 metres race.
Richards graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2006 with a degree in management information systems.
She is a singer and a dancer, regularly putting on shows for family and friends.
Aaron Ross currently plays for the NFL New York Giants. He was drafted by the Giants in the first round of the 2007 NFL Draft. He played cornerback for the University of Texas Longhorns from 2003 to 2006, winning the Jim Thorpe Award for the nation’s top defensive back in 2006. He was named the defensive “most valuable player” of the 2006 Alamo Bowl.
Wow, talk about an athletic couple. I know Aaron was out for an entire season due to injury, so I know he’ll be making his presence felt with the G-men this year.
Sanya may run for the US, but she was born and raised in Jamaica. So this will be somewhat of an intercultural marriage for them….I hope it is a lasting one.
HE GOT A WINNER! SHE IS GORGEOUS!
