A lush green archway, surrounded by foliage in the background, and who was posing beneath it? Track and field athlete Christania Williams and track and field coach Philipp Unfried. The man was in a dark blue suit with a light blue shirt and a creamish tie. Williams had donned a satin white gown with a sleek neckpiece, wearing a big smile on her face. What you are thinking was further confirmed by two more pictures in the Instagram carousel posted today, and Noah Lyles’s Fiancée was ecstatic about it.

One was them posing on stone steps outside a grand villa with blue shutters; Williams holding a bouquet. And another one at the same spot as the two of them shared a kiss. The caption read, “Whatever may come your heart I will choose Forever I’m yours forever I do ♾️ ❤️6.11.25 👰🏾🤵🏼‍♂️🤍.” Philipp Unfried and Christania Williams have been husband and wife for almost 3 months now.  And with this announcement, Noah Lyles’ Fiancée, Junelle Bromfield, came in the comment section.

“Congratulations wifeeeey.”

Christania and Philipp have been working together as coach and athlete for quite some time. A notable instance includes him trying to get her back to her 100m PB. Her PB is 10.96s in 100m, which came in the 100m semis of the Rio Olympics. Williams was peak in 2016. She opened the leg for Jamaica in the Rio Olympics, handing the baton to Elaine Thompson, from where it went to Veronica Campbell-Brown, and finally Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce.

Jamaica finished second in 41.36s. But after that, Williams’ career was marked by injuries. Yet, her now husband and she tried to get back in 2024. The plan for 2024 is to get close to where she was, close to her PB or maybe around PB,” Unfried stated back in 2024. “She is going to do some more races now in preparation for trials, and training went really well so far.”

Well, Junelle Bromfield could probably relate to @cheetahbaby99‘s (Williams) post the most because, just in October 2024, she got engaged to Noah Lyles. But Junelle is not the only Jamaican and Olympian to congratulate the Olympic silver medalist today.

Congratulations pour in for Christania Williams

A lot of track and field enthusiasts jumped in, sending their best wishes to the couple. One of them was track and field journalist, Owen, who commented, “Congratulations 🥳🫶🏽.” He also announced the news of their wedding via his X account and did not forget to send his congrats there as well. Then, there were comments in German, too.

One fan’s comment meant, “Congratulations!!!! 😃 Welcome to the club of ring bearers! All the best to both of you! 😁”

While one other was translated to a simple yet heartwarming, “Congratulations 😍😍😍.” This might have been because Philipp Unfried was a 100m Hurdler for Austria back in the day, his last race being in 2003. But there could be one more reason.

Christina Williams made headlines in 2025 when she changed her sporting discipline to bobsleigh and her national allegiance from Jamaica to Austria. Perhaps that is why Jamaican Bobsleigh Pilot, Mica Moore, was also there in the comments saying, “Congratulations ❤️.” Moore shifted from track to bobsleigh, representing Great Britain at the 2018 Winter Olympics, and starting in 2025, she began competing for Jamaica.

Noah Lyles‘ compatriot,  Kristi Castlin, also sent her wishes. “Congrats 🍾 ♥️.”
