Alina Zagitova

She seems to have gained some confidence and looks more relaxed in all those new photos. :agree2:

Yeah, it's interesting how after the Olympics, the spotlight was for both her and Med, and to a certain degree more Med. The string events after Worlds, seemed to have played out to her favor like doing shows, getting her dream dog, having an apartment gifted to her parents, and Med leaving to Canada.

Without Med around, it seems like she can be herself more if that makes sense. I'm curious if the coaching staff treats her differently as well.

Yup. When Evgenia was around, too, training there, it must have been akward, especially before the OG. No matter how close you are if you‘re directly competing against each other, knowing that the other one could potentially crush your dream, there‘s bound to be some tension. That‘s happened even to Yuzuru and Javier before Pyeongchang and they‘re used to competing against each other when Evgenia and Alina were still quite new to it because of Alina just turning senior this season. So, yeah, it‘s probably only natural that she‘s feeling lighter and more confident now. No more answering questions about her greatest rival, whether they were really friends, no more tension of Eteri trying to be fair to both top skaters (which must be incredibly difficult, imo, so it‘s actually good she can only focus on one of them now) and most of all: An Olympic Gold Medal in the bag, positivity from her fans, family around and a cute dog. If she wasn‘t feeling happy now, I‘d worry about her. I really hope that all the beautiful things she experiences now will help her findher strength for the next season and show to everyone, that no, Alina Zagitova is NOT just a one season wonder. She‘s the Olympic Champion and rightfully so and she‘ll kick your ass if you ever dare to doubt this girl again❤️

So. Enough of this kitsch. I was feeling a bit sentimental today, forgive me😂
 
She is so cute here :)

P.S. Interesting, is it Daniil new girlfriend in his IG stories, on the World Cup game?

I don't know if she's Daniil's new girlfriend, but that's Alexandra Stepanova. Nobody seems to know her here lol, which is kind of funny :laugh:

No need for forgiveness - I like what you said very much!

I think I know her....

Was there a picture of her a couple of weeks ago holding Masaru?
 
Long time no content, but about the honor issue, I think at least Alina is a very honorable girl.
