Hall's Girlfriend Shares Viral Olympic Fame Fun

Team USA freestyle skier Alex Hall captured attention at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina, winning a silver medal in men's freeski slopestyle. His dashing looks also led to him going viral on social media, a phenomenon his girlfriend, Emma, humorously shared with him. She would send him screenshots of posts, finding the attention ridiculous and funny.

Emma, who is in medical school, was able to visit Hall for five days during the Games. Unfortunately, she had to miss him medaling in slopestyle as she was taking exams. She later expressed immense pride in his achievements and growing recognition.

This marked Hall's third Olympic appearance, having previously won gold in Beijing in 2022. He also noted significant improvements in the Olympic Village food, particularly enjoying the diverse and fresh options available daily, a contrast to his previous Beijing experience.

Back home, Hall has partnered with Rao's Homemade, a brand that aligns with his Italian heritage and culinary interests. He describes his own cooking skills as above mid-tier, often making pasta but expanding to include salads and vegetables, and he enjoys being the 'pasta sauce plug' for his friends.
