Michelle Kwan Engaged to Clay Pell
Posted by Adam
MICHELLE Kwan is engaged.
The figure skating champion got engaged to boyfriend Clay Pell on September 3.
“It was a simple decision and it made sense, that’s what’s so exciting to me,” Kwan says of the proposal. “We are working together as a team, like in [pair skating].”
“It was amazing from the very beginning how in sync our way of thinking is, our basic values and our sense of priorities. We just both got each other,” said Pell.
Pell proposed on Block Island, off the coast of Rhode Island.
“It was hot and we were going to go into the water to cool ourselves off a little bit,” Kwan says. “I wasn’t anticipating going swimming. I said, ‘I don’t feel comfortable because I don’t have my bathing suit on.’ He’s like, ‘No, come on in,’ so I said, ‘Okay.’ ”
“I was nervous about wanting to do it right, but I wasn’t nervous about what the answer would be,” Pell explains. “We had been talking for a while about how we would like to have a family and the idea of getting married and what we wanted to do with our lives – and public service. So I think we both knew where we were relationship-wise and where we were going.”
