In the same interview with Time, Wilson, 29, opened up about her “dreams” of starting a family. “That is always a dream. This is my life partner. Honestly, what on earth was my world before you? That’s how much he’s impacted my life, my family’s life,” Wilson said.
Dating each other for the past four years since first connecting at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, the USA basketball teams passed time together at the hotel lounge as COVID-19 restrictions prohibited them from exploring the cities.
