One is the fastest man in history with a personal fortune of more than £30million.
The other is an accounts worker from Dartford who trains part-time at an athletics club.
But that didn’t stop Usain Bolt falling for sexy 22-year-old Megan Edwards in a romance that is said to have inspired his triple gold-winning performance at London 2012, it was reported in the Sun on Sunday.
Influence: It has been reported that Megan went on a series of dates with Bolt as the 26-year-old powered his way to victories in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay
Bolt, who holds the 100m world record with a time of 9.58 seconds, swapped numbers with Megan when they appeared on the catwalk together to unveil Jamaica’s team kit earlier this year.
It is believed they went on a series of secret dates during the Games as 26-year-old Bolt powered his way to victories in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay.
Megan, a junior athlete at Dartford Harriers Athletics Club, then celebrated his unprecedented success at a party in London’s Brick Lane, where Bolt whipped the crowds into a frenzy with his DJ-ing skills.
A source told The Sun on Sunday: ‘It was crazy. Everyone was trying to get a piece of him – especially the girls. But Usain only had eyes for one girl that night and that was Megan. She was by his side all night.’
Stars in her eyes: A friend of Megan said the relationship was ‘nothing too serious’ and that they were just two adults having fun
They later went to West End club Movida along with Bolt’s teammate Yohan Blake, boxer Lennox Lewis and hip-hop artist Nas.
A friend of Megan said: ‘Megan was in her element. She’s really smitten with Usain. It’s nothing too serious at the moment as he’s jetting off all over the world – but they are two adults having fun.’
Bolt had ordered a £50,000 bottle of champagne, which apparently featured in a picture of the pair uploaded on Megan’s Facebook page.
Bolt, who earns around £13million a year in sponsorship deals and appearance fees, met Megan around three months ago at the photoshoot.
His agent told MailOnline: ‘We do not make any comments on the privates lives of our athletes.’
Megan told The Sun she was not prepared to talk about ‘us two’.
You know what caught my attention…?
Jamaica had a run-way event to launch their new gear for the olympics………I'm crying inside because Nigeria wouldn't think of such!
Someone probably got paid and went on to purchase cheap-ass gears!
The lesson: Celebrate everything ( not lavish budgets o! ), hype it all over the media, then the world will recognize it ………. + don't forget to win medals.
