Kilian Melloy READ TIME: 1 MIN.

Olympic medalist Yared Nuguse has come out and introduced the world to his boyfriend of a year, Julian Falco, Sportskeeda reported.

The 25-year-old middle distance runner, who claimed the bronze for the 1500 Meter at the Summer Olympics in Paris last August, took to Instagram on March 29 with photos of himself and Falco.

"Introducing my boyfriend, Julian," Nuguse, a native of Louisville, Kentucky, captioned the photos. "Can't believe we're already one year in my love 💛".

"Don't act so surprised," Nuguse added, in parentheses.

The sweet pics showed the couple posed under a romantic heart-shaped arch, smiling at the camera in a candid selfie, sharing a restaurant meal, and cozying up to each other in workout wear while flexing their muscles, among other snaps.

Fans flooded the comments section with love, many of them simply posting strings of heart emojis.

"This is the best 🥹❤️," one person responded.

"Cuuuuuute ❤️," another exclaimed.

"obsessed 🥹❤️," another declared.

Nuguse has only added to his resume of accomplishments since his win at the Paris Olympics. "In February this year, he achieved a world record for the indoor mile, completing the distance in 3:46.63 during a competition in New York, adding another milestone to his already impressive career," ViaSport noted.

Congratulations, guys!
