Okay, so I kept seeing Caitlin Clark’s name everywhere. Amazing player, breaking records left and right. You know how it is, when someone gets that famous, you start wondering about their personal life. It’s just natural curiosity, I guess. So, I decided to do a little digging myself to see who her boyfriend was.

How I Started Looking
First thing I did, pretty simple really, was just go to my usual search engine. I typed in something basic like “caitlin clark boyfriend”. Didn’t need anything fancy. Hit enter and waited for the results to pop up.
Right away, a ton of stuff came back. News articles, sports blogs, even some celebrity gossip type sites. You gotta sift through it sometimes, you know? But one name kept showing up consistently across different places: Connor McCaffery.
Confirming the Details
Seeing the same name over and over is usually a good sign. So, my next step was to focus the search a bit. I then searched specifically for “caitlin clark connor mccaffery”. This helped narrow things down.
I started clicking on some of the more reliable-looking sources. Sports news outlets, articles from places I recognized. They all pretty much said the same thing. They met at the University of Iowa, where they were both athletes. That made sense. He played basketball there too, and his dad was the coach, Fran McCaffery. I remembered that name.
I looked for pictures, and sure enough, found plenty of them together – at games, just hanging out. Looked pretty official. A lot of articles mentioned they’d been dating for a good while, maybe over a year?

The final confirmation for me usually comes from social media, if you can find it. I saw mentions of them posting about each other on their Instagram accounts. Like anniversary posts or birthday wishes. When you see the people themselves acknowledging the relationship publicly like that, it’s pretty much confirmed.
So, That’s the Story
So yeah, that was my process. Started broad, saw a name pop up repeatedly (Connor McCaffery), then narrowed the search to confirm. Looked at news sources, photos, and saw mentions of their own social media posts. Pretty straightforward stuff, really. It wasn’t some big secret, just took a few minutes of searching around online to get the answer. That’s usually how I go about checking these things out when I get curious.
