Former skiing star Lindsey Vonn announced on Christmas that she had proposed to her fiancé, New Jersey Devils defenseman P.K. Subban, in a “non traditional" move so that each of them could have an engagement ring.

Subban proposed in August with an emerald ring because it is his birthstone and her favorite color, according to an interview with Vogue.

But the Olympic gold medalist on Wednesday wrote that “women aren’t the only ones who should get engagement rings!”

Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone!! On our 2 year anniversary, in a “non traditional” move, I asked PK to marry me and he said, Yes ☺️!

On Instagram, 35-year-old Vonn elaborated on her proposal and said she “returned the favor” on their second anniversary as a couple.

“We talk about equality but actions speak louder than words,” she added. “Men should get engagement rings too and this is what PK deserves. Can’t wait to marry you babe.”

The couple told Vogue in August that they weren’t rushing to make wedding plans.

“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,” Vonn said at the time.

Vonn retired earlier this year from competitive skating after winning three Olympic medals and four World Cup titles.
