Vancouver Canucks captain Quinn Hughes has finally addressed the swirling rumors surrounding his relationship with longtime partner Olivia Bonn — and his response leaves no room for interpretation.
After weeks of online speculation suggesting the couple was secretly engaged — or even already married — Hughes took a moment during an off-season media appearance to set the record straight. The 24-year-old defenseman, known for keeping his personal life extremely private, made a rare public comment that directly responded to the growing buzz.
“I’ve seen the headlines and the speculation. Look, Olivia and I are happy — but no, we are not married,” Hughes said firmly. “People need to stop running with assumptions. When there’s something to share, I’ll be the one to say it.”
The rumors gained traction after a photo of Hughes and Bonn at a private family event circulated on social media, showing Olivia wearing what appeared to be a ring on her left hand. Fans quickly jumped to conclusions, and hockey gossip sites began reporting that a “secret wedding” might have already happened.
However, Hughes’ recent statement firmly debunks those reports and emphasizes his desire for privacy.
“We’ve been together for a while. She’s an amazing person,” he added. “But people should respect that not everything needs to be public.”
Hughes is coming off a breakout season where he not only wore the “C” for Vancouver but also established himself as one of the NHL’s premier defensemen. His on-ice maturity has been matched by his leadership off the ice — and this measured response to media speculation shows just that.
As the Canucks gear up for a pivotal offseason, Hughes made it clear that his focus remains on hockey, not gossip.
“This team is building something special, and that’s where my energy is,” he said. “The rest is just noise.”
With his statement, Hughes sent a strong message — both to fans who’ve followed his relationship and to media outlets speculating on his personal life: he’s in control of his own narrative.
While it’s clear that he and Olivia Bonn are very much a couple, any talk of wedding bells remains purely speculative — for now.
Quinn Hughes isn’t married, and he’s not here for the rumors.
Until there’s something official, he wants the world to stay focused on what really matters: the game, the team, and the journey ahead.
