Who is Yohan Blake's girlfriend Laura Pearson? Jamaican beauty is 'happiest girl in the world'
Yohan Blake might have suffered a disappointing loss to Australia's Rohan Browning in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics men's 100m semifinal heat, but the Jamaican sprinter sure is winning big when it comes to his personal life. In a solid relationship with the love of his life, Laura Pearson, for at least the last two years, Blake never shies away from showing off his lady love. Just six days ago, in a lengthy Instagram message, Blake declared how smitten he is with Pearson, giving his followers and practically everyone else some major boyfriend goals through the sweetest birthday post.
Blake is generally considered the fastest man alive after the legendary Usain Bolt. At the Tokyo Olympics, the second-fastest sprinter on the planet was left shocked and stunned after being beaten by the significantly lesser known Australian Browning. The moment of shock for Blake became etched in the memory of countless viewers, as the 23-year-old law student from Sydney won everybody's hearts. But that's alright with Blake, whose own heart has been stolen by the Jamaican beauty.

In that order. Her Instagram account is an array of beautiful scenic paradises captured during the many vacations she and her boyfriend Blake seem to go on.

"Happy birthday to the love of my life," Pearson writes in the caption with red heart emojis, adding: "Words can’t even begin to describe what you mean to me. You are my EVERYTHING. I love you with all my heart. Thank you for making me the happiest girl in the world."

Earlier on her 25th birthday in 2019, Blake had reportedly gushed about his lady love with an Instagram post just as romantic. “She gives me love, love, love, love, crazy love. She’s got a fine sense of humor when I’m feeling low down. And I’m coming to her when the sun goes down,” Blake quoted a Van Morrison song for his girlfriend, adding: “Take away my troubles, take away my grief. Take away my heartaches in the night like a thief. Happy birthday baby girl Laura Pearson."
