Is Lauren Kyle McDavid quietly outshining her husband Connor McDavid in Edmonton's spotlight?

Lauren Kyle McDavid, wife of NHL star Connor McDavid, is making her mark in Edmonton's design and fashion scene (Getty Images) While Connor McDavid dazzles on the ice, his wife Lauren Kyle McDavid is steadily becoming a powerhouse in Edmonton's design and fashion scene. Far from simply being known as the NHL superstar's partner, Lauren is building a legacy of her own — one rooted in creativity, entrepreneurship, and community. From interior design to lifestyle: how Lauren Kyle 's business vision is transforming Edmonton This spring, Kyle launched Trove Living, a high-end furniture showroom that also houses her design firm Kyle & Co, along with a chic social space, Bar Trove. Speaking about her motivation, she said, 'I've always wanted to have a brick and mortar… I wanted the general public to experience something that I created.' The showroom sits in Edmonton's historic Canada Permanent building, offering 9,000 square feet of elegant design and multifunctional spaces. For Kyle, it wasn't just about business — it was personal. 'Myself, as a person — I love hosting. I love making people feel good. I love cooking. So it was a natural extension.' Not content with just interiors, Lauren is now making waves in fashion. She founded Sports Club Atelier, a premium sportswear label that debuted by designing stylish playoff jackets for Oilers' wives and girlfriends. With limited-edition collections already a hit, Kyle is preparing for a major collaboration with Team Canada ahead of the 2026 Winter Olympics. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2 BHKs starts at ₹ 72.6 Lakh | No Floor rise | Zero PLC Mahindra Happinest Tathawade Get Quote Undo 'I really saw a gap in the market,' she explained.
