Trinity Rodman has her loved ones celebrating her every step. Last week, Rodman was nominated for the 2025 ESPYs, one of the biggest awards for athletes worldwide. To commemorate the occasion, her boyfriend Ben Shelton shared a sweet reaction on Instagram.
Shelton celebrated Rodman’s nomination on his Instagram stories, sharing a photo of the news while adding a starstruck emoji.
Rodman was nominated for Best Play for her goal against Japan at the 2024 Paris Olympics, which quickly became one of the most discussed moments of the historic occasion.
Her goal came in the 106th minute and resulted in the US winning the match 1 – 0, winning a spot at the Olympics’ semi-finals. The win paved the way for the team’s gold medal.

“That’s the best moment of my career. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.”
