Elaine Thompson-Herah and her better half
Amongst many career accomplishments, the track and field also introduced the sprinter to her soulmate. Elaine’s husband, Derron Herah, is also a track and field athlete and a former professional sprinter. The 39-year-old Jamaican represented his country in various track meets, and post-retirement, he also served as a coach.
The two got married on November 2, 2019, and have lived a happy life since then. Perhaps both the sprinters fell for each other while Darren was coaching Elain. Although the major part of their relationship was kept hidden from the public eye, the couple made sure their wedding gets everyone’s attention.
Words from the bride
It’s been almost three years since these two track and field soulmates are married. However, for the special day, Elaine was ready with a beautiful heart touching message for her husband. She wrote, “I have a best friend as a husband, and he is my number one supporter. He’s a family man, and he’s always giving back to God. That is what makes him a beautiful man.”
Describing how they complete each other, the Olympic champion further added, “We’re not perfect by any means, but that makes us beautiful as well. We’re not afraid to say we’re not perfect. We have our disagreements, but that comes along with marriage.”
They indeed are made for each other.
