Evan Lysacek, USA's first man to win firgure skating gold at the Olympics in 22 years has again hit the headlines. The gold medalist, Lysacek has been dating another Olympic gold medal winner, gymnast Nastia Liukin. The couple has confirmed that they met in October 2008 in Rapid City, S.D. while performing on the NBC special skating & Gynamstics spectacular and have been dating since last summer. Since then, people have been searching the net for Nastia Liukin pictures, Evan Lysacek's girlfriend photographs etc.

Lysacek said that they became good friends and have become very close since then. They added that both of them attended the ESPYs together last July and since then their relationship ha grown and developed into a strong bond.

Lysacek had been to Dallas in August to cheer his girlfriend Liukin during the gynmast's comeback at the U.S. nationals. He said,"It was cool but nerve-racking watching her compete — to be on the balance beam like that? For me, it's easier to do it then watch it."

Liukin 20, came to Vancouver Olympics 2010 to cheer Lysacek. She said,"To see his dreams come true was amazing," Liukin says. "Even though we're not in the same sport, we got to connect at the same level because there's nothing like the Olympics. It was nice to be on other side of things and be the support system, but I was nervous."

Lysacek and Liukin have been going non stop in Vancouver and even helped host a small gathering at the Procter and Gamble Family Home in Vancouver, which put up a birthday party for Don, Lysacek's father and his uncle, Tate, who are twins.
