Could parenthood be on the cards for Tara and husband Woodhall?

The golden couple of track and field; Tara Davis-Woodhall and Hunter Woodhall have opened up about their thoughts on parenthood.

While the idea of starting a family is something they would embrace with joy, the couple made it clear that they are not actively trying to have a baby at the moment.

“If we had a baby, we’re going to celebrate it. We’re going to be super, super happy, but we’re in no way trying to have a baby,” Tara shared in an episode of the Beyond the Records podcast.

For Tara, the decision comes with considerations about her athletic career. As a long jumper aiming for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, she’s carefully weighing how parenthood might fit into her plans.

She questioned whether she would be able to or want to return to track after such a milestone especially since she had here sights set on defending her Olympic long jump golf.

The couple’s love story has captured the hearts of fans worldwide, especially their unforgettable moment at the Olympics.

After Tara won a gold medal, she rushed into Hunter’s arms. Hunter was cheering from the crowd and that moment brought to light their deep bond.

Hunter later shared the struggles behind that golden moment, revealing that he almost could not be there to watch Tara compete. However, one condition made it possible for him to attend.

“I don’t know if you all saw the video of her final jump, but that was completely impromptu. The only reason I was even there was because we were struggling to get tickets, just like everyone else. The only reason I was even on camera with a mic is because NBC said, ‘If you let us mic you up, we’ll give you tickets right up front,’ and I was like, ‘Deal’, " he recalled.

Then, during the Paralympics, Hunter had his chance to shine, securing the gold in the men’s 400-meter T62 on Friday, 6 September. And of course, Tara was right there, supporting him all the way. After his victory, he ran into Tara’s hands.

The Woodhalls met in February 2017 at a high school track meet in Pocatello, Idaho, and it seemed so destined to happen.

Hunter got a hug from Tara in school when Tara just came to him and told him that she felt the urge to hug him.

At that moment, both of them realized instant attraction and at first glance, Hunter could not help but make the move. After that, they began to message privately and then dated for a few months.

Their relationship was not all that smooth, especially because they were in different universities, and were in a long-distance relationship. But distance proved minimal for them and in October of 2022, they got married.
