A sprinter named Keula Nidreia Pereira Semedo got a surprise marriage proposal from guide after her Tokyo Paralympics 2020 Women’s 200m T11 Heat 4 event.
Keula Nidreia Pereira Semedo missed out on a semi-final qualification in the Tokyo Paralympics 2020 Women’s 200m T11 Heat 4 event on Thursday but this race turned out to be the race of a lifetime for this athlete from Cape Verde in a rather surprising turn of events.
Keula Nidreia Pereira finished last in her heat and after she finished her race, her guide Manuel Antonio Vaz da Vega took the centre stage as he got down to his knees, presented Semedo with a ring and proposed to her. However, things did not end there as Keula Nidreia said ‘Yes’ which made the occasion even more special as the other athletes around them were seen clapping happily.
The adorable gesture was also posted by the Paralympic Games on their official Twitter handle.
