Usain Bolt’s longtime partner, Kasi Bennett, recently offered a glimpse into their romantic date night, sharing moments from their getaway in Miami. The couple, together since 2013 and parents to three children, enjoyed a night out at Queen Miami Beach, an upscale club. Bennett posted a video on her Instagram story, tagging the venue and expressing her feelings about the evening.
“Perfect date night @usianbolt.”
While the couple enjoys their time together, Bolt has also been dealing with a financial scandal. In 2023, he fell victim to an investment fraud that resulted in the loss of $12.7 million. The scam affected multiple individuals and government agencies and is currently under investigation by the FBI. Amid the controversy, Bolt shared a cryptic message on X (formerly Twitter), writing:
‘”In Jamaica when you speak your truth the syndicates & bits will come for you..”
Despite the challenges, Bennett has stood by Bolt’s side. Although they kept their relationship private for years, they went public following the sprinter’s success at the 2016 Olympics. The couple welcomed their daughter, Olympia, in May 2020, followed by twin sons, Thunder and Leo, in 2021.
Bolt’s Perspective on His Children’s Future in Sports
As one of the greatest sprinters in history, Bolt dominated the 100m and 200m events, securing Olympic gold in 2008, 2012, and 2016. While he hopes his children may follow in his footsteps, he has made it clear that he won’t pressure them into athletics. In a 2021 interview with ‘People.com’, he emphasized the importance of letting them choose their own paths.
“I’m just going to support them. That’s always the key thing just support your child in whatever they want to do. So if they don’t want to run, if they don’t want to do sports, I’m okay with it,” he said.
However, Bolt admitted that seeing at least one of his kids become an Olympian would be a dream come true.
“It would be wonderful to sit in the stands and watch any one of them compete. That’s a high level, and if they win, it would be amazing. But as I said, I won’t pressure them,” he added.
Recently, Bolt has also revealed a new passion building Legos. Bennett often shares her thoughts on his hobby through social media, giving fans another fun glimpse into their life together.
