‘Chased her for a month’
“I just got a girlfriend,” the young athlete said with a grin in response to the reporter’s question.
Maeder, who’s currently based in Croatia, shared that it took him a month of pursuit to win her over.
Although he was quick to confirm that his girlfriend is Singaporean, Maeder remained coy when asked for more details about her identity.
When asked if she’s a fellow athlete, he replied, “I need to ask her if I can share that”, adding that they have not discussed what they can disclose.
Maeder also mentioned that this is his second relationship and described his girlfriend as “very cheerful” with a great sense of humour, as she “understands all my jokes”.
A photograph of the couple posing in front of Universal Studios Singapore was shown in the interview, though his girlfriend’s face was blurred to protect her identity.
