The most poignant love on the ice altar! At the age of 18, he fell in love with countless figure skaters, and at the age of 28, he fell into her arms
She is the former Soviet figure skater Catherine Godieva
I started to figure skating at the age of 11
She has since formed an indissoluble relationship with figure skating
His name was Sergei Greenkov
He is a talented teenager famous in the figure skating world
On the field, they "glided together"
It is the best partner in everyone's mouth
Off the field, they are an enviable pair of green plum bamboo horses
What brought the fairy couple together?
And what happened to make the couple end in tragedy?
This issue is a legend of the world's children's fun
Let's get to know this pair of figure skaters from the former Soviet Union
Catherine was born in Moscow in 1971
With the support of parents
Catherine chose to study figure skating with her sister
As a teenager, Catherine was small in stature
Compared to peers
Slightly deficient in bouncing power
You can't hold up a single-player event on your own
The coach decided to move her to the pair skating event
It so happened that Sergey, who was 4 years older than her at this time, also encountered obstacles in sliding alone
Maybe it's God's favor
Catherine, 11, and Sergey, 15
From then on, they became an extremely important part of each other's lives
The initial run-in was not all smooth sailing
In 1983, a year after the two became partners
For the first time, he participated in the Youth Championship held in Japan as a group
Only 5th place was achieved
This competition left a strong mark on Catherine's life
Once, Catherine's father came home from a business trip
Bring back a pistol keychain for your well-behaved eldest daughter
Catherine gave the key chain to Sergey
The tacit understanding between the two can be seen
After the figure skating competition, Catherine celebrated her 14th birthday
She invited Sergey to her birthday party
At the birthday party, Sergey brought Catherine a dog doll
Since then, the doll has become an indispensable companion for Catherine when she sleeps
That ignorant feeling gradually sprouted
After returning to Moscow
The slightly older Sergey was in a hormonal boom
No longer obey the coach's arrangement
Annoyed the coach, almost replaced by the coach
Fortunately, Catherine stepped forward in time to block it
Make it clear that he is not Arky and not cooperating
That's not going to break up the figure skating duo
The industry calls the two of them a "dream G&G combination."
From the former Soviet Union National Championships, European Championships, Canada Cup
Then to the World Championships, the two joined forces to win multiple championships
Created a myth of the record of the figure skating duo
The 1988 Olympics are just around the corner
The former Soviet Union has a record for several consecutive pair skating championships
It brought a lot of pressure to the two
For this reason, we have maintained high-intensity training
In 1987, on the eve of Christmas Eve
The two were practicing the final torsion
A mistake caused Catherine to be injured accidentally
Frustrated, Sergei came to the hospital with flowers to visit Catherine
Stay outside the ward day and night and refuse to leave
At the Venue of the Winter Olympics, the G&G Dream Group appeared on the Olympic stage for the first time
Completed a masterpiece performance
Throw, jump
The two used their bodies to interpret the visual artistic beauty brought by sports
In that competition, the two managed to win a gold medal
At the end of the game, the two men embraced each other excitedly
Convey each other's excited mood
In 1989, the beginning of the new year
Sergey kissed Catherine under the pretext of delivering wine
In a panic, he found an excuse to go to a friend's invitation
I want to use this to cover up my inner uneasiness
Repeated thoughts made Sergei's desire to express his inner feelings stronger
On that day, the snow covered the forest
Sergei, who was standing in front of Catherine again, looked a little nervous
He took Catherine to a nearby sauna
"How about we kiss"
Sergey finally plucked up the courage to say this to Catherine
A first kiss, a certainty
From this moment on, they decided never to be apart again in this life
The European Championships in Paris after the confession also went very well
The two winners took the opportunity to embark on a romantic journey in Paris
Feelings heat up quickly
Romeo and Juliet at the European Championships
It became the most acclaimed masterpiece of the two
Catherine grew older
Lost the childish feeling of belonging to a young girl
Coupled with a major mistake at the World Championships
Let their careers reach a bottleneck
In March of the same year, they decided to suspend the competition
Continue your career as a commercial performance
In April 1991, Sergey formally proposed to Catherine
The two had a wedding
24-year-old boy and 20-year-old girl
This is just the beginning of ordinary people's lives
They have accompanied each other for nearly half the time of their lives
Later, they left footprints in more countries
For example, the most famous "Daydream"
It's like a show tailored for two people
After the two got married, they had a beautiful little princess in April
Named Dasha
Look at the well-behaved daughter and thoughtful husband
Catherine felt incredibly satisfied
It was November 28, 1995
As usual, the two prepare for rehearsals at an ice rink in New York
He had just lifted his hand into the air
Suddenly he put it down again, covered his chest and fell on the ice
Wait until the ambulance arrives
Sergey had stopped breathing and was only 28 years old
Based on the final autopsy results
He died of a heart attack caused by a severe blockage in his coronary arteries
After a long period of psychological construction
Only then was Catherine willing to reminisce about that day
She said I held him and looked him in the eye and said
I will always love you, I will always love you
After Sergei's death, Catherine sank for a long time
She turned down all figure skating competitions
Instead, he continued his career in the form of commercial performances
In her opinion
Figure skating has been left in his memory with Sergey's death
Years passed, and Catherine had her own family and children again
But she insisted on mourning Sergey every year
Every time I think about that time, it is always sweet and accompanied by tears
The "G&G Fantasy Combo" has forever become a myth in people's mouths
