Eric Lamaze has surprised his long-time girlfriend Alexis Stein by finally popping the question. The 2008 Canadian Olympic Champion got down on bended knee and proposed on Sunday, October 20, in Wellington, Florida. Alexis, a 24-year-old musician and equestrian from New York City, said “yes!”. “She’s meant something to me for a long time, but it took a while for me to realize what I really had,” said Eric. “I’ve known Alexis for many years, and it was time to act on my feelings.” Eric made the decision to propose following a long discussion with his great friend and owner, Carlene Ziegler of Artisan Farms, who encouraged him to follow his heart. While wedding plans are still in the works, Eric is very much looking forward to the future, saying, “I will support her in anything that she does, just as she will support me in everything that I do. She is truly an incredible person.” © Press release
