Sabrina Ionescu and Hroniss Grasu's relationship timeline

Ionescu and Grasu have Romanian heritage in common. They attended the same college, the University of Oregon, and met as alumni.

“It’s a great love story. A little Oregon Ducks love story,” Ionescu said on the CBS morning show.
“He played football at the University of Oregon. He’s a little older than me, but we met as alumni and we’re now getting married in a couple of months.”

The first public sign of their relationship came in August 2021, when Sabrina shared a photo of them on Instagram as a birthday wish for Grasu.

“Happy Birthday to my person! Always smiling with you🤍,” Ionescu captioned the post.

The couple engaged on Jan. 20, 2023, with Ionescu sharing the news on Instagram with a series of photos.

Ionescu later revealed that she was surprised by the proposal. She said she was under the impression that she was going to a GQ photo shoot.

“I was completely shocked and caught off guard because he played it off so well,” Ionescu said on TikTok. “I couldn’t stop taking pictures with my ring."

The cross-sport power couple finally married on March 10, 2024, in a beautiful ceremony.
