"We met at the Stockholm Diamond League in 2020. You know, at the Diamond League, you come across each other in the dining hall, and just like that, we met," Bol reflected.
"After the competition, at the airport, we were just in the departure hall, and I think it was her and Lieke (Klaver) who sat 50m away from me," Broeders remembered. "By coincidence, she at that moment started following me. From there, we kind of got to talking, and the rest is history."

Femke Bol further added that she was initially stunned by the vaulter's beauty and found him easygoing.

"He's really good-looking looking first of all, of course. But he is such a nice guy. He is easygoing. I think from the moment we met, we had easy conversation and it started to grow."

The couple bought a house together in Heelsum, Netherlands, in 2024
