While no romantic interest has waited at the altar to become Aly Raisman's husband, the acclaimed gymnast has an active social life. She had a high-profile boyfriend in her early twenties.
Aly Raisman's dating life has been a subject of interest since she became a global public figure in 2012. That year, she led the US gymnastics team to a historic Olympic gold at the London Games.
Although she has only publically confirmed one boyfriend, she has admitted to a famous crush and spoke about a very close guy friend. Her social media habits have provided clues about who she might be linked to.

As an 18-year-old in mid-2012, Raisman told a tabloid that she does not have time for boyfriends or the drama that comes with them. She had gone to prom a few months earlier with her friend, Jamie McGill. She elaborated on the 'promposal:'
"He wrote 'Prom?' in Christmas lights and gave me pink roses. It was really cute."

Colton Underwood
Before he became known as a contestant on Becca Kufrin's season of "The Bachelorette" and during his own time on "The Bachelor," Colton Underwood got his first taste of public dating when he asked out Raisman over a live video Q&A.
Aly Riesman's then-NFL boyfriend went public with their relationship in December 2016 and walked the red carpet of the Golden Globes the following year. She gushed about how he randomly sent her gifts like a fruit basket:
"He's just a very thoughtful person."

The sporty couple said at the start of their liaison that their schedules and distance were not a deterrent in their relationship. Six months later, Underwood admitted that the "travel had been a nightmare" when he confirmed their split.
One such person was Joe Jonas, who tweeted her by name.

On Thursday, December 14, 2017, Raisman and hockey player Tim Schaller were seen dining at the Empire Asian Restaurant and Lounge in Seaport, Boston. They enjoyed a feast of spicy tuna rolls, dragon rolls, Empire House maki, and sashimi rolls.
There was no indication from the athlete's camp if it was a date. A tabloid reported that following April, they had been interacting with each other's social media. The gymnast, a known Bruins supporter, went to see a few games at TD Garden during that time.

Joe Jonas
Raisman was in the unique position as a teenager that her accomplishments, notably winning three medals at her debut Olympics, drew the attention of people she admired.
One such person was Joe Jonas, who tweeted her by name and mentioned the rest of the gymnastics team in an adoring message, calling them "incredible" on August 4, 2012.
She was "flattered" by the "Burnin' Up" singer's compliment. "I'm excited to get to know him," she told a magazine a few days later. "I would go on a date with him." There is no evidence to suggest Aly Raisman and Jonas, then 22, ever linked up.
