Caitlin Clark's relationship timeline with boyfriend Connor McCaffery

Caitlin Clark, an American basketball star, is dating Connor McCaffery, who is a fellow basketball player as well as a former Hawkeye himself.

In April 2023, the couple started their relationship but they didn't make it public until four months later when Clark revealed her involvement with Connor via a picture on her social media. "Best end to summer," she captioned a series of images, which showed the couple cuddling each other on a boat.

Moreover, Connor also wrote a tribute to Clark on her 22nd birthday. “Happy Birthday 22. Wish I was there to celebrate with you – you deserve the best day. Golden Bday/T Swift year will be the best yet,” he wrote in a post in January 2024.

“With all that you’ve already accomplished, there is so much more in store for you and your special self. I admire you in every way and I love you,” he added.

Connor's prediction about Clark that there would be "so much more in store" for her was right as after a month, the basketball star was the all-time leading scorer in NCAA women's basketball history when she beat Kelsey Plum’s 3,527 points, according to People.
