On the surface, Utah Jazz shooting guard Gordon Hayward seems like he belongs in Utah. The nice white kid from the small school (Butler), who loves shooting threes. For his sake, we hope that Gordon Hayward's girlfriend, who is soon to be Gordon Hayward's wife Robin Van Vliet likes Salt Lake City, because she'll be sticking around for a while.
The last we knew, Gordon Hayward's girlfriend Kolbi Killingback, was in the picture having dated since college. In the time that's passed, Hayward and Van Vliet have begun dating, and proudly took to Twitter and Instagram to announce the news on Christmas Day:
Merry Christmas to everyone out there! Hope it's a good one! Mine was especially good bc SHE SAID YES!!!! So thrilled I get to marry my best friend and such an amazing person @robynvanvliet! I love you!!! - @gdhayward - Instagram
Soo happy I get to marry this babe .. Finally engaged to the love of my life - @robynvanvliet - Instagram
Hayward isn't shy about going public with his relationship, often posting pictures of Van Vliet and telling the world how much he's missing her while on the road. Not much else is known about Van Vliet, but Hayward is certainly proud to be marrying her. Congratulations to the newly engaged couple.
