WNBA star Cameron Brink gets engaged to boyfriend Ben Felter after romantic Paris proposal
She said yes! WNBA star Cameron Brink is officially off the market after getting engaged to boyfriend Ben Felter during a proposal in front of the Eiffel Tower on Monday night.
Brink is in France for Paris Fashion Week and didn’t know until just before the proposal that her fiancé-to-be would be joining her in Europe.
After Brink attended the Balenciaga show, Felter met her at the Shangri-La Paris Hotel, where he got down on one knee with the illuminated Parisian monument in the background.
The Los Angeles Sparks star shared a series of romantic snaps taken by photographer Lucio Andreozzi on her Instagram, breaking the happy news to her thousands of followers.
Felter sprung the surprise by telling Brink that he had to work at Stanford as part of his graduate program in computer science.

Brink and Felter began dating in March 2021, when both were student-athletes for the Cardinal. Felter competed on the rowing team.
Brink and Felter’s love life has been largely kept secret over the years.
But 22-year-old Brink couldn’t resist gushing about her engagement.
She is part of the groundbreaking WNBA rookie class headlined by Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese.
While Reese and Clark get the majority of the headlines, it was Brink who was drafted second overall in April’s WNBA Draft by the Los Angeles Sparks. Clark was selected with the first overall pick by the Indiana Fever.
Brink’s rookie season did not go as planned as she tore her ACL in June and missed the remainder of the season.
The Sparks’ faint postseason hopes were dashed after Brink’s injury, with Los Angeles finishing last in the WNBA with an 8–32 record.
Before her engagement, Brink’s last Instagram post showed her attending the final Sparks games of the season and wearing trendy outfits.
She is expected to be healthy early next season. And she will enter her second professional season with a beautiful ring on her finger.
