McColgan Agrees to Marriage Proposal on Mount Fuji
New & Spicy Version
Looks like Eilish McColgan, the 10K gold medalist at the Commonwealth Games, just got hitched! Her beau, Michael Rimmer, dropped down on one knee at the foot of Mount Fuji in Japan, and she said "yes!"
Eilish ain't shy about sharing details—she flaunted pics of the event on IG with the caption, "Japanese jet lag was totally worth this moment! Here's to forever, babe! #offthemarket".
It all went down just a few days after her debut at the London Marathon, where she placed 8th and set a new Scottish record, clocking in at 2:24:25. Talk about multitasking, am I right?
(Rumor has it that Eilish's mom, Liz Nuttall, is already on the hunt for a new wedding dress!)
Michael, a fellow Olympic athlete, is not only her partner but also her long-time coach. Seems like he's a keeper. Fujinomiya, Japan became the picturesque setting of this romantic moment, and this fairy tale starts a new chapter in their lives.(Fun fact: This heartwarming event took place in April 2025, a few days after the London Marathon.)
