Pole vault superstar Armand Duplantis has secretly married fiancé Desire Inglander at Stockholm City Hall with reports suggesting that the Swedish-American is planning a proper reception in France in June.
According to British tabloid The Sun, the news of Duplantis’s marriage was inadvertently revealed by a Bislett Games (annual track and field meet in Oslo, Norway) organiser, who said that the 26-year-old would not be able to take part in this year’s tournament since he will be busy with his wedding celebration in Cannes, France. Following the leak, the two-time Olympic gold medallist told Swedish newspaper Sport Bladet: “I wish he did not say anything, but that’s how it is. We’re going to have the real ceremony and wedding during the summer. I feel half-married. But I don’t have the ring on. Not until the real ceremony in June.”
