Sarah Palin recently appeared in a rare photo with her boyfriend, NHL legend Ron Duguay, as the couple shared a glimpse of their Thanksgiving celebration.
Both Palin and Duguay shared the picture of them celebrating the holiday on their Instagram stories.
Joining them were Duguay’s son, Noah Duguay, and daughter, Meaghan McDonald, gathered around the dinner table for the holiday festivities.
‘Happy thanksgiving, much to be thankful,’ Duguay said in a text box on the story.
‘On this Thanksgiving day, so grateful for home… and a place to go,’ Palin wrote at the top of a video compilation, which included snapshots of her holiday travels from Alaska to Chicago, Illinois.
Palin, 57, and Duguay, 64, have been in a relationship since 2022 but largely keep their romance out of the public eye.
The hockey phenom confirmed that he was in fact dating the presidential candidate after they were spotted enjoying a romantic dinner in Little Italy in February 2022.

Recently, Palin made headlines for her appearance on NewsNation’s Cuomo, where she joined political commentator Bill O’Reilly and sports analyst Stephen A. Smith during a town hall hosted by Chris Cuomo.
While the event focused on discussions about the upcoming election, much of the attention shifted to Palin’s outfit—a black mini-dress—which sparked online backlash.
Critics labeled her look a “disgrace” and “horrifying,” prompting Palin to respond on social media with a post full of laughing emojis and hashtags like #getalife.
She pointed out that she had worn the same dress in the past without controversy, highlighting the inconsistency in reactions.
Palin, who divorced her high-school sweetheart Todd in 2020 after 32 years of marriage, shares five children with him, including Dancing with the Stars contestant Bristol, 31.
Duguay, a former professional hockey player from Canada, spent 12 seasons in the NHL from 1977 to 1989.
Known for his flashy style and long hair, he played for several teams, starting with the New York Rangers, where he spent his first six seasons.
Duguay was married to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Kim Alexis from 1993 until their divorce in 2016.

He also briefly dated Charlie’s Angels star Farrah Fawcett in the 1980s, and famously claimed that paparazzi photos of the couple led to his trade from the Rangers.
Palin rose to national prominence in 2008 when she was selected as Senator John McCain’s running mate in the presidential election, which they lost to Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
She served as governor of Alaska from 2006 until resigning in 2009.
