FAMILY AFFAIR
She is married to Ukrainian swimmer Mykhailo Romanchuk, and says their lifestyles as elite athletes complement one another. "In our family everything is quite simple. We never stick our nose in each other's training. Not every couple is able to understand what it is like to not be at home for three or four months of the year, due to competitions and training camps. But we are both athletes and understand how important it is what each other does." (fakty.ua, 20 Oct 2019)
