In a heartwarming development that has thrilled fans across the alpine skiing world, American ski legend **Mikaela Shiffrin** has officially announced the date of her upcoming marriage to Norwegian skiing sensation **Aleksander Aamodt Kilde**. The power couple, both dominant figures on the international ski circuit, have shared their love story openly in recent years, and now they are ready to take their next big step—down the aisle.
Shiffrin made the announcement in a joint social media post on Monday, where she and Kilde were pictured hand-in-hand, beaming with joy against a snowy alpine backdrop.

**A Love Story Forged in Snow**
Shiffrin, 30, and Kilde, 32, began dating in 2021, after years of friendship on the World Cup circuit. Their relationship blossomed during the COVID-19 pandemic, a time that brought many athletes closer through shared challenges and fewer competitions. Since then, they’ve become a beloved pair in the world of winter sports—supporting each other through races, injuries, and victories.
While both have led extraordinarily successful individual careers—Shiffrin being the most decorated alpine skier in history with over 95 World Cup wins, and Kilde claiming multiple World Cup titles and Olympic medals—their bond has grown far beyond the slopes.
**A Fall Wedding in the Alps**
According to sources close to the couple, the wedding is set to take place in **late September 2025** in the scenic mountains of **Innsbruck, Austria**, a location deeply meaningful to both Shiffrin and Kilde. The ceremony will be an intimate affair, with close family, teammates, and a few notable names from the skiing community expected to attend.
In a brief interview after the announcement, Shiffrin said, *“Skiing brought us together, but it’s everything in between—traveling, recovering from setbacks, and dreaming big—that’s made us stronger. We’re really excited to celebrate our love with the people who’ve supported us on and off the slopes.”*
**Fans and Fellow Athletes Celebrate**
The news has sparked an outpouring of congratulations from fans and fellow athletes across the globe. Lindsey Vonn, former teammate and Olympic champion, commented, *“So happy for you both! Love wins—can’t wait to celebrate!”*
The International Ski Federation (FIS) also released a congratulatory statement: *“Mikaela and Aleksander have long inspired the world with their incredible talent and resilience. Now, they inspire us with their love. We wish them a beautiful journey ahead.”*
**Looking Ahead**
While the wedding plans are now underway, both Shiffrin and Kilde have made it clear that they are still focused on the upcoming 2025–2026 ski season. With Shiffrin aiming to further extend her legendary record and Kilde working hard in recovery following his recent injuries, the couple continues to push boundaries professionally even as they prepare to tie the knot.
Shiffrin concluded her announcement by saying, *“There’s no finish line when it comes to love—it’s a lifelong adventure. And I’m so lucky to be on this one with Aleks.”*
This marriage of champions not only marks a new chapter in their lives but also symbolizes unity, perseverance, and love in the high-stakes world of alpine skiing.
