Who has Suni Lee dated?

At 21 years old, she’s already won another gold medal during the women’s artistic team all-around at the 2024 Paris Olympics, and many fans would like to know who’s supported her on the sidelines.

Jaylin Smith (2021)

According to her Team USA profile, Jaylin Smith is Suni Lee’s ex-boyfriend. The USC Trojan football player were first linked to the gold-winning gymnast in 2021.

Suni hard-launched her relationship with Jaylin in December 2021 when she posted a series of photos with the athlete, but the post was met with hate comments. Members of the Hmong community criticized Suni’s interracial relationship, but many of her fans came to the rescue to defend her and who she loves.

“I know that Sunisa will be judged by certain eyes in the Hmong Community because her man is Black,” user alixphom wrote in the caption of a TikTok video where he’s posing and putting his thumbs up in front of a picture of the couple. “LOVE is LOVE, no matter what race or gender you are. Keep doing you QUEEN.”

In a since-deleted comment on the video, Suni reportedly wrote, “This makes me so happy. I’ve received so much hate,” and claimed that many people only support her “when it’s beneficial for them, never when it comes to my happiness.”

Sunisa hasn’t posted a photo of them together since the incident, but they continue to support each other. In an Instagram photo of him wearing an Indianapolis Colts jersey, Suni was one of the first to comment on the photos when she wrote, “proud.”
