'I've been hearing this'- Junelle Bromfield hints at an African country as next vacation destination with fiancé Noah Lyles
Junelle Bromfield has hinted at where she is considering having her next destination with her fiance Noah Lyles in Africa.
He revealed that having to be followed with cameras all over the place was a different type of feeling for him.
Hughes admitted that it kind of changed his perspective going into the 2023 World Championships in Budapest but he had to stay grounded and focus on what took him there, to perform well and win medals.
“I didn’t watch part two because of the emotions of Paris, it was just too much. It was pretty cool and it was something a bit strange to me, because I’m not accustomed to it. I had to suppress mentally and just focus on the task ahead because they were in my space a little bit,” Hughes said.
“There were so many cameras everywhere I went. Even when you’re on the starting line, you can see the guys from Netflix filming you. It’s a lot of pressure. Once it came out, I saw it on TV and I thought it was so cool.”
The Olympic 4x100m relay bronze medallist revealed that a lot has changed since then, including people recognizing him more in malls.
He has also met some people who encouraged him to keep going since he is source of motivation for their children.

'Will it be televised'- Noah Lyles & Sha'Carri Richardson fans question Grand Slam Track future
Fans have expressed disappointment over the exclusion of Noah Lyles and Sha'Carri Richardson from the Grand Slam Track roster.
“The interactions I’ve gotten with so many people from that documentary has been so cool and made me feel humble. It made me smile a lot because I couldn’t go anywhere without people calling me out,” he revealed.
“For instance, when I was going through airports, parents would come up to me with their children and tell me I am an inspiration and their child wants to try track and field because of me. Things like that inspire you and it makes you want to see how much more you can impact people.”
