Alexandra Trusova, the silver medalist of the 2022 Winter Olympics, admitted that she is not afraid to marry Russian figure skater Makar Ignatov. Her words are quoted by the publication Mail.
“And getting married is not scary; it has nothing to do with competitions! This is not a competition, but our unforgettable day full of touching and happy moments!” – shared the skater.
The wedding ceremony took place on August 17.
Trusova won the silver medal at the Olympic Games in Beijing, losing to compatriot Shcherbakova. Japan’s Kaori Sakamoto finished in the top three. Before the award ceremony, Trusova refused to go to the ceremony and emotionally stated that she would never go on the ice again. On August 16, Evgeni Plushenko, who works under Trusova’s leadership, said that there was no talk of the figure skater returning to the sport and that she would only perform in the trial skating.
Ignatov is a silver medalist of the Russian Championship (2021), a bronze medalist of the Rostelecom Cup Grand Prix stage (2019), a two-time winner of the Russian Cup Final (2020, 2022). He became the first Russian figure skater to perform four jumps in four rotations in the same program.
Previously Trusova acceptedthat she had difficulty putting the wedding ring on Ignatov’s finger.
