Desiré in Paris: Follow Mondo Duplantis' girlfriend for a day at the 2024 Olympics

By Clare McInerney

When she isn't cheering on boyfriend Mondo Duplantis from the Parisian stadium stands, the Swedish model and content creator has been cruising the Seine, visiting her favourite pastry spots, and juggling multiple outfit changes a day. Here, Desiré Inglander gives us a glimpse into a day in her life at the 2024 Olympics

In their Vogue debut in our latest issue, 22-year-old Desiré Inglander described travelling with boyfriend and world champion pole vaulter (amidst her own busy schedule of modelling and social media work commitments) as "a privilege". To which Duplantis lovingly responded that Inglander is a "great travel buddy."

Now, their jet-setting lifestyle is in full swing yet again as Duplantis has taken on the crossbar at the Stade de France – triumphantly scooping both a gold model and a new world record – with Inglander by his side. Here, Inglander snaps an exclusive diary for us, chronicling a day in her life at the 2024 Games.
