30 Surprising Olympic Couples You Might Not Know About

Tim Price and Jonelle Richards

Another couple gearing up to compete together in Tokyo are New Zealand equestrians Tim and Jonelle Price. The duo represented their country at the 2016 Rio Olympics, and Jonelle had previously won a bronze medal at the London 2012 Games.

Married since 2013, this Olympic couple has the rare experience of competing against one another. Their sport stands out as the only one in the Olympics where all genders play together. Jonelle reflected, “From the start, we’ve always ridden and competed side by side, so it’s what we’re used to.”
