Matt Olson Met Wife Nicole Olson At The University of Georgia
Matt Olson started dating his wife Nicole Olson on 17 January 2016. They have been in a relationship for seven years.
Matt first met Nicole Kidder Olson in 2015 for the first time at the University of Georgia. At the time, Nicole was pursuing her academics at Georgia, and Matt had already been drafted by Oakland Athletics and was playing in the minor leagues.
A couple of mutual friends of the couple introduced them to each other, and it was love at first sight. At the time, the couple couldn't immediately set up a date as Matt had to leave for a European vacation with family and friends.
Matt and Nicole then met again after he returned from the trip and soon started going on dates.
A few months had passed since the couple started seeing each other, and in 2016, the baseballer asked Nicole to be his girlfriend. The answer was an emphatic "YES" which was then followed by Nicole's trip to his spring training.
