Athletistic/ Figure skating. One of the famous Russian figure skaters is Alexandra Trusova. She trained for a long time in Eteri Tutberidze’s group. Under his leadership, Trusova won a bronze medal at the 2020 European Championships in Graz.
Later, the skater joined Evgeni Plushenko’s group. With him she also managed to win an important medal. Trusova won bronze at the 2021 World Championships in Stockholm. She failed in the short program, but had the best result in the free program and rose to third place.
Before the 2021/2022 season, Alexandra Trusova returned to Eteri Tutberidze’s group. She successfully performed at the European Championships in Tallinn. Initially, she won bronze, but after Kamila Valieva’s disqualification, she received silver. At the 2022 Beijing Olympics, Trusova also became a silver medalist.
In the first season of absence from international competitions, Alexandra Trusova still took part in competitions. However, it did not show serious results. The skater missed last season. At the same time, she continues to appear on the ice in various shows.
In recent years, information about the personal life of Alexandra Trusova has also appeared in the media. For a long time she dated the European champion Mark Kondratyuk. However, in the fall of 2023, it became known about their separation. Figure skater Makar Ignatov became Alexandra Trusova’s new lover. Today, June 17, the athletes announced their engagement. They are getting ready to get married.
Foreigners reacted to the skaters’ good news. They left their comments on the English forum Reddit. Many congratulated Trusova and Ignatov. At the same time, some were surprised to have decided to marry quite young (19 years old).

– A big congratulations, but wait, do Russians get married so early? Oh my God, I feel old and I’m only four years older than her?
spicy pear-1:
– For your information, teenage marriages in Russia are completely normal. Divorces too. I’m not commenting on anyone, but I’m giving context because I had no idea until last year. That is why Medvedeva said that her mother was so worried that at the age of 23 she was not yet married. (So young !!!!). I remember a few Russian figure skaters who got married and divorced before they were 20 years old.

“I’m so shocked, it’s like I didn’t even know they were dating.” But I’m happy for her.
Anonymousprettychick:
“Honestly, I congratulate them and wish them all the best.”
Vanderwaals_:
– I did not expect that. But Makar seems like a good guy, much better than Mark. Congratulations!!!
bored with the tee:
– Wow! They’ve only just started coming together, but it’s great. If they are happy, I am happy for them.
Fluffy-Cresson-99:
– Congratulations to the couple! We have a famous Russian figure skater who is engaged or married two years in a row. Who will be next in 2025? This seems to be a trend currently. What is happening to the older generation of Russian figure skaters, like Zagitova, Medvedeva or Tuktamysheva? They are in no hurry.
