OLYMPIC COUPLE
She met her husband, Russian wrestler Roman Vlasov, at the Ball of Russian Olympians that was held for the athletes who had competed in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The couple got married in 2019. "He is very confident. I believe that he is an outstanding athlete. And the matter is not in his titles. I see how hard he trains. It seems to me that no one else works like that. This approach to work and life attracted my attention as a lady. Every woman wants to have a confident man who could stand up for both you and himself, to have a reliable shoulder nearby." (rusfencing.ru, 04 Mar 2020)
