On May 2, the Detroit Lions tight end and fullback Brock Wright made a life-changing decision in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. He proposed to his girlfriend (now fiancée), Carley Johnston, sharing a heartfelt moment as he gave her a beautiful ring. Brock proposed to Carley, bringing her to tears when he got down on one knee.

Carley shared a touching message to the Lions’ tight end on Instagram after the proposal. But before diving into her message and their relationship, let’s take a quick look at who Johnston is. Well, Brock’s fiancée has connections with the world of sports, that too beyond her NFL fiancé. 

Who is Brock Wright’s fiancée, Carley Johnston?

For those who don’t know, Carley Johnston is an in-arena host and NHL reporter for the Detroit Red Wings, a role she has held since 2017. Before that, she worked at WDIV as an associate producer and news intern, beginning her reporting journey there in 2015. In 2014, she briefly worked at Telescale, a commerce-related company, but her passion for journalism pulled her back to the media world after just three months. Her interest in news likely began during her high school or college years.
