Mondo Duplantis, the 24-year-old pole vaulter, made an indelible mark at the Paris 2024 Olympics by winning the gold medal for Sweden and setting a new record with a jump of 6.25 meters. However, his success in sports is not the only highlight of his life; his relationship with Desiré Inglander, a 22-year-old Swedish model and content creator, has also captured public attention.

Born in United Stades, Mondo’s path to success seemed almost predestined, with a father who was a former international pole vaulter and a mother who was a former heptathlete and volleyball player. However, it was his connection to Sweden, his mother's homeland, that led him to represent this nation in international competitions. At the heart of his support is Desiré, whom he met at a party in Stockholm in 2020. The attraction was immediate for Mondo, although Desiré initially showed little interest.

These details were revealed in an interview with Vogue. Despite Desiré's initial disinterest, Mondo persisted and, through conversations on Snapchat, managed to establish a relationship. Desiré, who had never been on a date and felt nervous about the language barrier, finally agreed to go out with Mondo. This first date marked the beginning of a solid relationship filled with mutual support.

Desiré never misses any of Mondo's competitions, always present in the stands, cheering him on enthusiastically. Her support goes beyond mere presence; she is the first to share Mondo's achievements on her social media, where she also openly discusses their relationship. The couple resides in Kungsholmen, an island in Stockholm, allowing them to be close to Mondo's family while he continues to train in Louisiana.

Mondo has expressed his love for Stockholm, highlighting the city's beauty compared to his native Louisiana. Additionally, he has learned Swedish to communicate better in his daily life and interviews, although he jokes that he only speaks "survival Swedish."

After his victory in Paris, Mondo thanked Desiré profusely, emphasizing the importance of her support in his life and career. "It’s wonderful to be able to come home and share this success with someone so special. She’s a great travel companion," Mondo told the media.

Desiré, on her part, has been developing her career in content marketing and plans to start her own company. Her ability to plan and manage is evident in both her professional and personal life.
