Jamaica's new Power Couple steals spotlight as Paris 2024 Olympians.
Jamaica is known as the hub of some of the world's best sprinters. Interestingly, the Caribbean country is now turning out to be the home of track love.
The latest romantic pair that have decided to go public with their relationship are Rasheed Broadbell and Stacey-Ann Williams, who both competed at Paris 2024 Olympics.
Who is Rasheed Broadbell?
The Jamaican speed hurdler known for his remarkable achievements on the track, has become a rising star in the world of international track and field.
Broadbell has consistently captured attention since winning the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham and his latest victory was powering to the Olympic 110mH bronze medal in Paris.
He has a Personal Best (PB) of 12.94s in the event, making him the third Jamaican hurdler to dip below the sub-13s mark in history.
Meet Stacey-Ann Williams
A 400m specialist, Stacey-Ann Williams is unarguably one of the world's most beautiful track athletes.
She secured her spot on the Paris Olympic train as the 400m runner-up at the Jamaican Olympic trials for the first time as an individual competitor, after missing out for three consecutive years.
At Paris Olympics, Williams made the 400m semifinals but failed to qualify for the final. The 25-year-old is a two-time world championship silver medallist and a one-time Olympic bronze medallist in the 4x400m relays. Her PB is 50.12s set in April last year.

"I feel like it's natural in that sense for us because we're in the same group, we see each other every day, we know each other inside and out, so it just comes natural for us.

Junelle Bromfield failed to make her mark at the Paris 2024 Olympics after her boyfriend Noah Lyles suffered from COVID.
"I mean I cannot put that into words, the feeling, but it's really good because I feel like at trials she went before me and she made the team, and as I said it was my turn, and she was at the sidelines and I was like, 'alright my time now'.
"You know it's like she pushes me, I push her. So whoever goes first, we have to just set the standard and get going," he concluded.
