Rhys McClenaghan flew the flag for Ireland at the 2024 Paris Olympics, impressively clinching the gold medal in the pommel horse event.
And just a few short months later, Rhys waltzed his way to Glitterball glory on the 2025 series of Dancing with the Stars, scooping the top prize wth his pro partner Laura Nolan.
After gaining recognition as not only an Olympic champion, but world, European and Commonwealth champion, fans have been curious to know everything about him, especially his love life and who he's dating.

Though he frequently shares photos with his long-term girlfriend Emilee Corr, Rhys has remained rather quiet about giving any further information about their romance away.
His girlfriend of approximately five years is also a gymnast, which doesn't come as a huge surprise. As the couple take a big step in their relationship, here's everything to know about Emilee...

Who is Emilee?
Rhys' girlfriend Emilee hails from Bangor, Co Down. She's an acrobatic gymnast for Ireland, an Irish champion and a Northern Ireland champion.
Emilee works as a gymnastics coach at Rathgael Gymnastics and Tumbling Club.

Rhys and Emilee enjoy downtime together when they're not focused on their respective gymnastics careers.
Support in Paris

The Down native jetted over to Paris to support her boyfriend. No doubt the lovebirds have been celebrating since Rhys' victory.
Speaking after his win at the weekend and being reunited with his family, Rhys said: 'It was so great just to see everybody.
'I haven't seen them in three weeks so it was good just to hug my parents, hug my girlfriend and celebrate together.'
Cheering on Rhys during DWTS

Emilee was Rhys number one supporter during his time on Dancing With The Stars, with Emilee trying to make it to every show she could.
He told EVOKE: '[Emilee's] been in as well [as Laura's fiancé Matthew MacNabb] for a couple of the rehearsal sessions and she's been on every live show as well.
'She loves coming to the live shows so she’s on board as well and I think that's important, to have your loved ones back home because this is quite a commitment.
‘I'm now based in Dublin for the next however long I'm on the show and to get up and go [relocate] like that it's a big deal, so you need to have that support system back home.'
Moving in together

In March 2025, just weeks after his DWTS win, Rhys revealed that he and Emilee had taken a big step in their relationship and moved in together.
Sharing a life update, Rhys wrote: 'March 2025 was a month I’ll remember. Won the Glitterball, moved in with my favourite person, I still do gymnastics for a living.'
