Eileen Gu is back in the spotlight after a successful run at the 2026 Winter Olympics. The 22-year-old athlete has reportedly surfaced on Raya, an exclusive, membership-based dating app known for its high-profile celebrity users.

Gu dominated the slopes at the Milan Cortina Games, taking home a gold medal in Halfpipe and silver medals in both Slopestyle and Big Air. While her athletic performance made her one of the biggest stories of the event, she remains a polarizing figure. Her choice to represent China rather than her birth country, the United States, continues to spark debate among sports media and politicians alike.

Now that the games have ended, Gu appears to be focusing on her life as a student and model. Her profile on the invite-only app lists her as a “Pro skier and model” at Stanford University. She also mentions her interests in the bio, which include physics, philosophy, running, and white truffle oil.

Raya is famous for its strict vetting process and a user base that has previously included stars like Ben Affleck, Olivia Rodrigo, and Lewis Hamilton. Gu’s appearance on the platform follows a massive surge in her digital footprint, with her Instagram following climbing to over 4.4 million.

Gu’s success at such a young age suggests she will be a major force in the 2030 Games in the French Alps. She made history in Italy by medaling in every event she entered, a feat that solidified her status as the most decorated freeskiing athlete.

Although the viral screenshot of her profile has circulated widely on social media, neither Gu nor her representatives have confirmed its legitimacy. Whether the profile is real or not, the interest in her personal life shows that her fame has moved well beyond the world of winter sports.
