Domnina: “Kostomarov and I began to attend football matches more often. This is a new stage in our life.”

Olympic bronze medalist in ice dancing Oksana Domnine said this with her husband Roman Kostomarov began to attend football matches more often.

In early 2023, Kostomarov was hospitalized due to pneumonia and complications. The 47-year-old athlete began suffering from tissue necrosis and underwent several limb amputations. Kostomarov then underwent prosthetic surgery, and in December he returned to ice skating in Ilya Averbukh’s show.

— After Roman became an ambassador for the charity program, we began to attend football matches more often. It’s a new stage in our life.

— How has your life changed?

– Of course, it has become different, but we try to balance our rhythm and make it as close as possible to what we had before. There are difficult situations in every person’s life, but the way Roman overcomes them, and the fact that he is an Olympic champion, inspires many people. And we often hear: “Why are we sitting on the couch, because Roman is holding on, fighting and moving forward,” quotes Domnina, RB Sport.

Kostomarov, together with Tatyana Navka, won gold at the 2006 Olympic Games in Turin, also became world champion twice and won the European Championships three times.
