Olympic champion Alina Zagitova spoke regarding the attitude to social networks and fans.
I almost never reply on social media. I am quite a closed person. But I’m trying to communicate somehow. Fans can come to the rink, they know where we are. I communicate calmly, everything is fine.
– Were there too obsessive fans? When was this love already frightening?
– Yes, I had such a situation. In general, some man from Kazan came to me in a large tinted car, he met me near the house all the time. I was 16 years old. I was in shock. He followed me – at that time I was without a car, I went on foot to training, I had to walk for 5 minutes.
He followed me like this, at some point my grandmother went with me. We walk, and he drives just as slowly and is like: “Listen, we need to talk to your granddaughter, I like her very much.” I’m 16.
It turned out that he was divorced, did not pay alimony, and was also a drug addict. I don’t know how he drove the car.
– How did you deal with this situation?
– Yes, in the end I have a school “Sambo-70” gave me a guard. They helped me.
– Uncle was somehow told to go farther?
– Yes, he was deported to Kazan.
Do you know his further fate?
“No, and thank God,” Zagitova said in the Daring Cooking show.
