March 6, 2025: a burning cake, a helicopter ride, an island getaway, friends, beachy vibes, jet-skiing, and a whole lot of gifts. It was Christian Coleman’s 29th birthday, and her girlfriend, Sha’carri Richardson, went all out. Her nervous excitement contrasted with his calm enjoyment—and a weekend getaway to Anna Maria Island with friends. The Parisian golden girl wished her boyfriend, saying, “Happy birthday to my person. Thank you for being you.” So, how could Coleman have stayed behind when it came to Richardson’s birthday celebrations? So what did he do?
Today, on March 25, 2025, Richardson turned 25. Christian Coleman wished Sha’Carri Richardson a happy birthday on his Instagram story today with a heartfelt message. The message said, “Happy Birthday my queen👸🏾, thankyou for life lessons and the many blessings! Thank you for being you! @itsshacarri 🐐” Coleman went on to share different moments of the whole special day the couple celebrated together as he himself called it, “A few random pics/vids.” From cutting the cake to partying together and a glimpse of Sha’Carri’s special talent that many people don’t know.
It seems the couple spent the whole day together as they went out celebrating. One of the stories showed Sha’Carri all excited as she looked at her birthday cake, which was a two-tiered white cake with the sprinters’ pictures all around and what looked like a small golden crown at the top of it. Coleman kept updating the fans about the happenings as he posted a photo of both posing before the mirror and captioned it “My Olympic twin.” Both are track stars in their own right—Richardson with her 2024 Olympic silver (100m) and gold (4x100m relay) and Coleman, the current world record holder in 60m (6.34), whose 2024 Olympic run was unfortunately cut short by a relay disqualification.

The birthday celebrations did not stop there, as both looked dressed up in black in the next story, and seemed all ready to party and celebrate. Coleman captioned it, “The flyest.” In his last few stories, he shared a photo of Sha’carri getting all comfortable in her pajamas, probably after the party. Not only do we get a glimpse of their at-home chilling moments, but we also get to see a hidden talent Richardson is seen showing in the story. The celebrations didn’t stop there!

While they’ve kept some details private, their social media breadcrumbs—candid pics, flirty captions, and joint appearances—paint
a picture of a relationship that’s both romantic and grounded in their shared world of elite sprinting. But how can we forget about the special talent shown by Sha’Carri Richardson?Christian Coleman shared Sha’Carri Richardson’s special talent
Sha’Carri Richardson, with two Olympic medals and three World Championships medals, is a sprinter to watch! But it seems she isn’t just a talented sprinter. She hosts a long list of other talents. From being a style icon to an entrepreneur, Sha’Carri seems to be everywhere. And now, her boyfriend has shared one of her other talents. And what is it?
It turns out the 2024 Olympic gold medalist can write using her legs! Yes, you heard that right! In the video shared by Christian Coleman, she can be seen lying across a table in her blue co-ord pajamas, laughing as she holds a piece of chalk in her toes. With the same care she uses on the track, she writes
“Sha’Carri” on what looks like a chalkboard. The writing turned out to be sloppy, like the handwriting of a second grader (which Coleman himself says later in the clip), with all the wonky letters and slanted lines. But before we pass judgment, hold on! We need to give credit to the spriter for even making an effort to write using her toes, which isn’t an easy task.Coleman, off-camera, likely boosted her up, perhaps with a caption such as “
Bet y’all didn’t know your favorite sprinter can write wit her feet lol @itsshacarri.” Not just that, as we can hear Coleman in the background saying, “that’s pretty good.” At that moment, Sha’Carri turns around with a big laugh, and Coleman joins her to share an even bigger laugh. Such a heartfelt moment, we must say! Then she looks over at Coleman and says, “I told you. “From training buddies to a confirmed couple, their affection blossomed in the public eye with sentimental tributes and shared experiences.
