We all remember when Raiders tight end Colton Underwood sent gymnast Aly Raisman a video asking her out on a date. Underwood congratulated her on winning one gold and two silver medals, and casually expressed his interest on taking her out. No one really thought much would come of it, and that it would end up being more of something for Underwood’s teammates to poke fun at him for than anything.
But that wasn’t the case.
The two walked the red carpet at the Sports Illustrated Sportsperson of the Year ceremony on Monday, and announced that they have been dating for five months.

The magic started in Denver, where their first date happened. They look like a happy couple, and this is a pretty great story. And in case you haven’t seen it, here’s the original video which started it all.
