In December, Vonn split from her fiancé, hockey pro P.K. Subban, after three years together.
"Over the past 3 years PK and I have had some incredible times together. He is a kind, good man, and someone I respect a great deal," Vonn announced in the caption of the now-deleted post. "However, after much consideration we have decided to move forward separately. We will always remain friends and love each other immensely."
Following her split from Subban, Vonn revealed "what’s important" to her and what makes her "happy" amid quarantining during the coronavirus pandemic.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"During this crazy time, I realized that working out helps me a lot mentally," Vonn told People magazine in January. "It was kind of what kept me on a good path and was something that motivated me every day."

"Sometimes you take things for granted and, because I've done it my whole life, I kind of didn't value it as much as I do now," she explained.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"I think with the pandemic, you realize a lot of things — not just about working out, but generally speaking in life — of what's important and what makes you happy and keeps you motivated," Vonn stated.
