‘No congratulations, nothing’ – Noah Lyles girlfriend Junelle Bromfield slams Jamaicans’ poor Olympic final reception to Kishane Thompson

Published

Junelle Bromfield has a message for Jamaicans’ poor reception to Kishane Thompson’s Olympic silver medal, instead chose to direct their frustrations on Noah Lyles.
‘No congratulations, nothing’ – Noah Lyles girlfriend Junelle Bromfield slams Jamaicans’ poor Olympic final reception to Kishane Thompson. When Noah Lyles powered to the Olympic 100m gold medal in Paris, Junelle Bromfield faced an unhealthy amount of online backlash from Jamaicans for supporting her boyfriend over her countryman Kishane Thompson.
The men’s 100m final was one of the most anticipated at the Paris Olympic Games, and Lyles defeated Thompson in a new personal best of 9.79s, edging the Jamaican champion by just five-thousandths of a second, with both clocking the same time.

Following his victory, the American speedster ran straight to celebrate with Bromfield at the stands who obviously, was rooting for his boyfriend ahead of her countryman and would later pen an Instagram post to this effect.
Her public affection for Lyles didn’t please most Jamaicans who felt she chose love over country, with some even calling her a ‘traitor’. This outrage quickly spiraled into cyberbullying, with Bromfield facing intense criticism and online harassment from her own community.

The depth of Bromfield’s distress became clear when she was approached for an interview by Jamaican journalist Simone Clarke. Initially, she agreed to an interview but only on the condition that it not take place in Jamaica, citing how much the criticism had impacted her.
With the need for an intense discussion, Clarke flew down to the US to have the talented 400m runner on her Sim Soul Sessions podcast, where Bromfield opened up on how Jamaicans focused on the wrong things trolling Lyles instead of celebrating their first sprinter to have medalled in a men’s Olympic 100m final event since Usain Bolt.
Romantic pair Noah Lyles and Junelle Bromfield’s new photos suggests they may have taken their relationship to the next level of being engaged.
“A Jamaican man has gotten a medal at the Olympic, world championship since Bolt,” said Bromfield. “Oblique is the first man to make the finals, I believe in 2022 onwards and if he’s not healthy and he doesn’t get a medal problem, she added. “Kishane came along and I watched a small clip, Kishane got a silver medal at the biggest biggest stage in any athlete’s career, the Olympics, and I saw that video and nobody was cheering.
“Everybody was at shock and they were on the internet and Noah is my boyfriend. But all I saw was Noah shouldn’t get that medal, Noah shouldn’t have got that medal and I wasn’t seeing no congratulations, they were just fighting the results and showing blames instead of appreciating the first medal they’ve gotten since Bolt.”
Bromfield also revealed how Lyles helped her get through the hate and negativities she received by sending a video clip during the period.
Speedster Noah Lyles opened up on the future of athletics, having the support from track legends Carl Lewis and Usain Bolt, and why athletes need to start thinking outside performances.
“I’m just here to probably vocalize some of the ways that I feel that you’ve shown your resilience and shown your strength and it’s hard at times I know, but you know, you’re a game changer you might not want to be, that’s what you are,” Lyles said in the video.
“Now everything that God has put in your life, has been one step forward to moving, to inspiring the next generation, and I know it’s uncomfortable, but he prepared you for this moment, and I’ve seen the way that you fought through.”

France’s greatest ever player – Kylian Mbappe has struggled…
Kylian Mbappe has struggled to make the impact expected of him at Real Madrid
Michel Platini, one of the most iconic figures in French football history, has voiced concerns about Kylian Mbappe’s form, describing the Real Madrid star as “lost on the pitch.”
PAY ATTENTION: Stay updated with the Latest Football News from Pulse Sports.
The remarks come as the 25-year-old struggles to replicate his previous heights both for club and country, sparking debate about his future at Real Madrid.
Mbappe’s form raises alarms with Platini
Platini, a pivotal figure in France’s 1984 European Championship triumph, expressed unease over Mbappe’s recent performances during an interview, saying, “A great champion must be reborn from his ashes, systematically.”

Mbappe’s output this season has been inconsistent. While he has managed seven goals in 12 La Liga matches, his Champions League record of just one goal in five appearances has drawn scrutiny.
His most recent performance against Liverpool, where he missed a penalty in a 2-0 defeat, has raised questions about his suitability for Real Madrid.

On the international stage, Mbappe’s absence from the French squad in recent windows has also been a source of concern after manager Didier Deschamps opted to omit him, citing it as a move in the best interests of all parties.
Platini hopes for Mbappe resurgence
Additionally, off-the-field controversies have added to the pressure as in October, Swedish media reported allegations of misconduct against Mbappe, claims which his legal team firmly denied as baseless.
Kylian Mbappe had a night to forget for Real Madrid at Anfield.
Despite the challenges, Platini remains hopeful that Mbappe’s current struggles will serve as a temporary setback rather than a defining period.
With Real Madrid central figure Vinicius Junior sidelined through injury, the onus is on Mbappe to lead the team in pursuit of their goals.

When Ronaldo made his high-profile move to Al-Nassr almost two years ago, the family initially stayed at the ultra-luxurious Four Seasons hotel.
They later settled into a palatial home that has since been rented out, although the price remains a mystery.
Their decision to downsize has sparked plenty of chatter online.
Fans speculate whether this move marks a shift in priorities for the power couple.

So far this season, the Portuguese legend has scored nine times, while registering two assists in 11 league games.
