wow, her daughter Daria is already 18... Katia looks great and has grown both as a person and a skater...

Thanks for conducting such a relaxed interview with well-informed questions! She seemed a lot more comfortable here than in a lot of other interviews I've seen. Just wish the interview was longer! :)

@mismestera Her father died in 2008 from a heart attack. I read that since then, she's been active in promoting heart-healthy lifestyles and education for heart health in honor of her father and Sergei.

she doesn't look good with this hair color. She looks rather old now in this interview. She was such a natural beauty. Looks very much so like her mother now. What happened to her father?

I love love love her

I absolutely love Katia! When I was little, G&G were my heroes. I remember when I heard Sergei had died. I was 7 or 8 and I cried myself to sleep. It's been wonderful watching the transformation and development of Katia's life and those of her girls. So happy she's been able to make a happy life for herself with a new love. Good for her! Still one of my heroes!

Немедленно поменять прическу, цвет волос ужасно не идет и меньше косметики. Самая красивая фигуристка прибавила себе лет, Катюша исправляйся

Wow, she's now 40 and she's grown even more Radiantly Beautiful than since her Olympic days

I love her.. am glad she is still around.

IMHO, it is not so much her bleached hair, which looks really unhealthy though, as it is her eyes and brows that add to her looking aged and/or tired most of the time. Something has happened to her previously gorgeous brows plus the eyes are smaller and do not have a sparkle anymore. Also too much skin around the eyes, may be due to lots of crying who knows... She looks both young being in a great shape and old because of her face.

@208327650 I know! If you are naturally pretty you don't need that much makeup and Katia is beautiful!

Maybe 'cause she seems slightly worn out, too. Looks as though she could definitely use a nap or a weekend getaway.

@kamwrites I prefer her hair brown, too.
