"There was still so much I didn’t understand about God or the Bible. So we started reading the Bible together when we’d talk. Andre would stop from time to time and explain what we were reading. I was afraid to say the wrong thing, so I let him do most of the talking while I just listened."
She continued:
"It was refreshing, having a guy lead in such a strong way. I’d never dated a guy who was so passionate about something beyond me or himself. It was clear that Andre’s [Levrone] first priority was not me; it was his relationship with Jesus Christ. That made him all the more attractive to me."
Apart from her Olympic feats, McLaughlin-Levrone has three gold medals and one silver medal from the World Championships. She also has a gold medal from the 2015 World Youth Championships.
