Eileen Gu’s alleged Raya dating profile sparks online buzz after winter olympics

The viral post on X showed a photo of what appeared to be Eileen Gu’s profile on Raya. Raya is a members-only dating app that is mostly used by celebrities, influencers, and people from the entertainment and sports world.

The image shared online showed a glamorous picture of Gu looking over her shoulder. The bio on the profile read: “Pro skier and model, Stanford university. 2x Olympic gold medalist & model w IMG. I like cats & philosophy & white truffle oil & running & physics.”


However, it is important to note that the authenticity of the profile has not been confirmed. There has been no official statement from Eileen Gu or her representatives about whether the account is real.

Gu has been a major name in international skiing since the Beijing Winter Olympics. The American-born athlete chose to compete for China, the country of her mother’s birth, which created debate at the time. Some critics questioned her decision, but Gu explained her reasons openly.

In a message she shared on Instagram, Gu wrote, “When I was 15, I announced my decision to compete for China. I am forever grateful for that season, and continue to maintain a close relationship with the team.”

She also explained her goal behind the decision. Gu wrote, “Skiing for Team China meant the opportunity to uplift others through the universal culture of sport, and to introduce freeskiing to hundreds of millions of people who had never heard of it.”

Looking back at her journey, she added, “I can look back now, at 22, and tell 12-year-old Eileen that there are now terrain parks full of little girls, who will never doubt their place in the sport.”

For now, the viral Raya profile remains only an online mystery. But one thing is clear, whether it is on the slopes or on social media, Eileen Gu continues to capture the internet’s attention.
