Kentucky’s Willie Cauley-Stein took a break from basketball this week to go on a date with a special young lady named Olivia who asked Willie to marry her.
The 4-year old girl, who suffers from cerebral palsy, made a video that was published on social media. In the video, she asked Cauley-Stein to marry her.
Cauley-Stein discovered the video and invited the little girl for a lunch date at the Wildcat Lodge.
Here is what Olivia’s mom had to say about the visit:
“Our hearts are full today! We are so proud and excited to let you all know why the UK Wildcat visited CDCB on Monday! He came to deliver an invitation to our Olivia…. Willie Cauley-Stein requested her presence for a lunch date!”
“Yesterday Olivia got to have spaghetti with Willie at the Wildcat Lodge. She was SO charming and he made her feel SO special. Very happy for our little girl, and very proud to be a part of #BBN …. that a player of Willie’s caliber would take time out of his day on perhaps the most pressured-filled and anticipatory week of his college career speaks volumes about the outstanding character of Kentucky’s Basketball team.”
