Love really does make the world go round, and for Gordie Mitchard and his beau Steven Stull, it seems they’ve found their perfect orbit. The couple, who first locked eyes and hearts in Chicago back in 2018, decided that one proposal just wasn’t enough to encapsulate their love. So, they went for a double – how about that for commitment?
Gordie, a name well-respected on the ice, first as a formidable college hockey player at the University of Iowa and then as a referee, took a leap of love this time, off the rink and onto the scenic Sydney waterfront. With rings in hand, he popped the question, echoing the romantic gesture Steven made just a year before. It’s a love story that feels like it’s straight out of a movie, where every scene is more enchanting than the last (Outsports).
Their journey wasn’t just filled with roses, though. Gordie’s path to happiness and self-acceptance had its share of hurdles. Coming out in the hyper-masculine world of hockey was no small feat. It took courage, and Gordie faced it head-on, finding solace and freedom in his decision to live authentically. His story is a testament to the power of embracing one’s true self, despite the odds.

What’s next for this dynamic duo? Well, they’re taking their sweet time planning their big day, eyeing October 2025 as a potential date to tie the knot. With their families already thick as thieves and a home they call their own, it’s clear that Gordie and Steven are building a life filled with love, support, and endless possibilities.
So, here’s to Gordie and Steven, who remind us that love knows no bounds and sometimes, a single proposal just won’t do. May their story inspire others to follow their hearts, no matter where they lead.
