Armand Duplantis breaks world records, but with his girlfriend
Twitter user’s viral reaction after Armand Duplantis’ winning kiss
This year, the Paris Olympics are all about adrenaline, victory, and a whole lot of love. ICYMI: Swedish pole vaulter Armand “Mondo” Duplantis broke the world record by winning the gold medal on August 5. And guess what the 24-year-old did after that? Armand wasted no time and ran over to his girlfriend Desire Englander, who watched the historic win from the stands. If anything, it certainly has a romance-book feel to it. In a video shared on Instagram, Armand hugged his partner tightly and then kissed her. Meanwhile, Englander was seen shedding tears of joy over his victory. Fashion model Englander also shared her boyfriend’s winning moment on Instagram.

After all, this is the city of love. And Cupid is working his way up between proposing to the winners on the podium so they don’t just win a gold medal. However, people on the internet were also impressed by Cupid and wasted no time in reacting to the incident. Twitter was flooded with tweets – some funny, some adorable.
Seeing Armand Duplantis’ move, one person joked: “When you want your friends to die of jealousy.”
