According to Vogue, Subban proposed to Vonn with an emerald ring because green is her favorite color and it’s his birthstone.

This will be Vonn's second marriage. She married former U.S. ski team member and Olympian Thomas Vonn in 2007. They divorced in 2013, though she's continued to use her married name.
