In an emotional and unexpected moment that left players and staff teary-eyed, LSU women’s basketball head coach Kim Mulkey took center stage during a private team meeting to share life-changing personal news: she’s getting married — and the date and venue are officially set!
According to exclusive sources inside the program, Mulkey, known for her fiery coaching style and championship pedigree, showed a softer side as she announced the milestone. “This isn’t just about me,” Mulkey reportedly told her team. “It’s about all of us. You’ve been my family, and I wanted you to hear it from me first.”
The coach, who has led LSU to national prominence in recent years, revealed that the wedding will take place later this fall at a picturesque venue in her home state of Louisiana — a private estate that insiders describe as “storybook-perfect.”
Players were reportedly overcome with emotion, some cheering, others tearing up as Mulkey reflected on the journey that led her to this moment. “I never thought I’d find this kind of happiness again,” she shared, drawing applause and hugs from her players.
Social media erupted within minutes of the news leaking, with fans flooding platforms to offer congratulations and speculate about which LSU legends might be on the guest list.
While no details have emerged yet about the lucky groom, those close to Mulkey say she’s kept the relationship mostly under wraps — until now.
With the 2025 season on the horizon and excitement already high, Mulkey’s personal announcement has added yet another layer of emotion to an already powerful story unfolding in Baton Rouge.
