Megan Rapinoe has got engaged to Seattle Storm basketball player, Sue Bird, after four-years together.
The USA World Cup winner , 35, was pictured getting down on one knee, in a cute snap on Bird's Instagram page.
The post did not include a caption, but just a picture of Rapinoe proposing to the basketball ace, poolside.
The snap has sent fans into meltdown, and one Twitter user said: "Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe getting engaged is the one and only bright spot of 2020."
Another added: "Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe are engaged, which means I’m going to spend the evening crying into ~several~ glasses of wine."
The duo, who became an item in 2016, are the ultimate couple goals given their glittering trophy cabinets.
Bird won her fourth WNBA title earlier this summer as the Storm defeated Las Vegas Aces.
Rapinoe has an equally impressive resume, considering she is a back-to-back Women's World Cup champion with t he United States Women's National Team.
In 2019 she won the second ever Ballon d'Or Feminin - awarded to the best female player of the year.
In her acceptance speech she called out Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic for not speaking out against sexism.
