Usain Bolt’s girlfriend shows her love and support for him after he gets his dream of the triple-triple

OLYMPIC champion Usain Bolt publicly shared his historic triple-triple dream win with his fans in Rio. But privately, his girlfriend has also been watching.
Bolt’s Jamaican girlfriend, Kasi Bennett, has sent the internet into a spin after posting messages of support to him on her social media accounts.
Bolt, who keeps his romantic life private, has confirmed the two have been dating for more than two years. He recently referred to them as “President and First Lady” in a photo he posted on Instagram.
Bennett is prolific on social media with her support for Bolt and her passion for fashion and selfies she takes of herself in all sorts of figure-hugging outfits.
From dresses to denim shorts and sky-high stilettos, Bennett loves sharing her wardrobe of outfits with more than 30,000 of her followers on her Instagram account.
After Bolt convincingly won his triple-triple gold medal haul, leading Jamaica to the gold medal in the men’s 4x100m relay, Bennett posted on her Instagram: “Respect the legend”.
Just days ago, she posted that Bolt’s success story at the Rio Olympics had already written. “Time to publish”, she wrote on Instagram.
On Twitter, she also described him affectionately as “My Boss” and “My babbbbbbbbbbbyyyyyyyyyyy!!!”.

As Bennett predicted, Bolt’s Olympic swansong went on pretty much as expected.
A ninth gold medal — this time with a little help from his friends — and a historic sprint triple-triple, one that will almost certainly never be repeated.
“There you go,” he said. “I am the greatest.” Not many arguments there.
The Jamaican superstar had done it all on his own until now, winning the 100m and 200m double for the third straight Games. But to claim yet another slice of Olympic history he needed the assistance of his Jamaican 4x100m relay teammates.
Asafa Powell, Yohan Blake and Nickel Ashmeade set the final up for Bolt and the greatest track and field Olympian of alltime did the rest, storming home in the anchor leg.
“I’m just happy to have done what I came here to do. I’m just proud of myself,” Bolt said.
“I have to give thanks to the guys, they really came through for me and I’m really happy about that.
“The pressure is real but I look at it as an accomplishment. “I enjoy pressure and I live for these moments.
“For me, it’s beautiful.”
