Vonn, 34, a gold medalist in the 2010 Olympics and winner of 82 World Cup skiing events, made the announcement Friday on Instagram. She and Subban have been dating for at least a year, ESPN reported.
"He said YES!!" Vonn posted. "Can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with this crazy/kind/handsome/hyper/giving man."
Subban, 30, won a gold medal as a member of Canada's men's hockey team at the 2014 Olympics, ESPN reported. He was traded from the Nashville Predators to the New Jersey Devils in June.
The couple met two years ago at the Nickelodeon sports show that follows the ESPYs, Vogue reported.
The pair made their relationship official in a red carpet at the CMT Music Awards in June 2018, People reported.
"Right off the bat, I knew he was different," Vonn told Vogue. "But I'd been married before, so I was pretty hesitant to let myself think that I could find someone that I would want to be married to again. After a few months of dating, I knew he was the one I wanted to be with, though. He makes me happy, and he's so positive and energetic."
In addition to her marriage to skier Thomas Vonn, Lindsey Vonn dated golfer Tiger Woods for nearly three years until they split up in 2015, ESPN reported.
"Lindsey's the best thing that's ever happened to me," Subban told Vogue. "There are people in life that deserve to be with good people. They have that person who takes care of them and makes them smile, and she deserves to be with someone who loves her more than anything else in the world, and I do."
Vonn said the couple has not set a date for the wedding but will live in New Jersey, Vogue reported.
We’re in such a busy time right now. We’re trying to move to New Jersey,” Vonn told the magazine. “I just want to enjoy the moment and the engagement. We’re not in a big hurry to get married. It kind of depends on his playing schedule, and when we have time to sit down and go through it. I don’t want to stress him out because he has a big season coming.”
