Dmitriy Solovyov

Dmitry Solovyov - the owner of a record number of champion titles in modern Russian figure skating, in alliance with his partner Yekaterina Bobrova - is the only one of the "golden" Sochi squad who not only remained in sports, but also retained leadership positions.

Having passed the Olympics in Pyeongchang, Dmitry did not lose his desire to go on the ice.

Dima was born in the middle of the summer of 1989 into an ordinary Moscow family. The boy did not know his father. At the age of 6, my mother brought her son to the rink, thinking that he would be interested in hockey. Dmitry liked skating, but not the stick. From the 5th grade, Solovyov switched to external studies, studied not without difficulties, since outside the window the children played snowballs or kicked a ball, and he pored over the textbooks.

Until the age of 10, Soloviev practiced as a single skater, the elements were given without problems. But then the future skater received a concussion and was unable to perform a simple one-turn jump. The end of a career loomed, but the coaches decided to support the promising boy and offered to ride with the girl Katya, her last name was Bobrova.

Dima initially treated dancing as an undignified occupation, in addition, he was embarrassed to take girls by the hand. The mothers of future champions agreed among themselves, Solovyov had to be persuaded for six months. And having come to a new group, Dmitry fell in love with another young athlete and stayed.

Since 2000, Bobrova and Soloviev have been a couple, they say that they have studied each other up and down, but they rarely communicate outside the ice. But to prompt, to help - you are always welcome. Athletes themselves are surprised how they have lived next to half of their lives, never having quarreled.

Until 2012, the athletes' programs were composed by Svetlana Alekseeva and Elena Kustarova, then - Oleg Volkov and Alexander Zhulin. They decided to change the coaching team when they realized that there was no progress. As a result, we got a creative work, a wonderful, according to the skaters, team of choreographers, even an acrobat, and a generally different approach.

The first significant success in ice dancing for young people came in 2007, the youth competitions of the country and the world turned out to be gold. A little over a year later, Dmitry took part in the adult championship of Russia, won a bronze medal. The athlete got to the championship of the planet by accident - the leading Russian pair Oksana Domnina - Maxim Shabalin refused to compete. For a debutant, Solovyov skated quite well, stopping at the 13th position.

4th place in the 2009 Russian Championship knocked out a couple from the international tournament grid, Dmitry performed only at the Universiade, where he got 5th place. The athlete was rehabilitated at the national championship of 2010, having won silver. However, at the World and European Championships, Ekaterina and Dmitry entered only the top ten. In the same year, the skaters got to their first Olympics, where they got 15th place.

In the 2010/2011 season, Soloviev put gold medals of the champion of Russia and the home Cup of Russia, silver of the European Championship and the Cup of China in his treasury. Dima did not have enough to reach the podium of the Grand Prix finals, he became the sixth in the world competition.

In 2012, the skaters changed the coaching staff, as a result they won the continental championship and won a bronze medal at the World Championships in Canada. The 2012/2013 season was also remembered for the victories at the championship of Russia, Europe and Finlandia Trophy, two silver medals from the stages of the championship series.

The long-awaited Sochi Olympic Games rewarded Bobrova and Solovyov with medals of the highest standard in team competition. They were complemented by victories at the national championship (for the fourth time in a row), the Russian Cup and silver at the Grand Prix stage in China.

Preparing for the main start of the season, the tandem did not participate in the continental tournament, heeded the coach's advice. Dmitry did not get to the personal Olympic podium, despite the fact that the rental turned out to be unmistakable. When answering questions about refereeing, the athlete was very restrained, but apparently, he had something to say.

In the fall of 2014, Dmitry underwent surgery due to a meniscus injury, as a result of which he missed the 2014/2015 season. But the champion resumed his studies rather quickly, he did not hesitate to share a photo of an injured leg in a special orthosis on Instagram.

But in the new season, the skater proved that he is the best in the country, in addition, he won the NHK Trophy silver, bronze from the European competitions and the Skate Canada International tournament. Dmitry's personal and fan pages on social networks were filled with emotional greetings from fans, thanks to Katya for supporting and waiting for a partner.

The 2016/2017 season turned out to be, perhaps, the brightest in the ice biography of Solovyov. This is evidenced by 4 gold medals: from the home championship, the Nepela Memorial, the Rostelecom Cup and the Warsaw Cup, as well as the silver in the team world championship, bronze from the American Skate America and the European championship.

In December 2017, the Russian Figure Skating Championship was held in St. Petersburg. The free program of Ekaterina Bobrova and Dmitry Solovyov simply stunned the audience and literally brought their mentor Alexander Zhulin to tears. But competition was added to the team of the eminent figure skater and no less successful coach: Victoria Sinitsina and Nikita Katsalapov came, until recently they shared one ice with the champions, who were two steps below, Tiffany Zagorski and Jonathan Gureiro.

In an interview behind the scenes of the competition, Bobrova said that after the Korean Olympics she would like to quit professional sports, while Dmitry is only planning a short break.

Dmitry married early, at the age of 17, to Ekaterina Lobanova, who competed in women's single skating. The girl has just turned 16. As the skater said in an interview, if love comes, nothing, including age, matters.

In 2010, his wife gave Dima a son and left the sport. A few years later, the couple separated, but they are raising the child together. Soloviev is silent about the reason for the divorce, but according to rumors, it was an affair with teammate Ksenia Stolbova, partner of Fedor Klimov.

A passionate romance, accompanied by generous gifts, a joint vacation on overseas beaches, quickly ended. But such a charming, handsome man with an excellent sense of humor (Dmitry's height is 183 cm, weight - 69 kg) simply cannot remain alone for long.

Soon Solovyov confirmed that he was in a relationship with Anna Sidorova. Anya is a silver medalist and four-time bronze medalist of the world curling championship, leads the national team of the country. The athlete has known the girl for a long time, since Anna began with figure skating, the guys attended the same rink. Then, due to the injury, Sidorova, although she remained on the ice, changed the sport.

How his personal life will turn out, Dmitry does not think. In a pair, both are performing athletes, maximalists in life. Ani's team did not qualify for the Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, but the girl went there as a commentator. Young people do not show feelings in public, but they do not make secrets either. In social networks, lovers periodically have posts with touching declarations of love.

Dmitry is a lover of sleep and frankly admits that he recently learned to overcome himself. The skater has many hobbies: cars, football, table tennis, hockey, cinema and music. Trying not to take risks, she goes snowboarding. How a fan can watch everything on TV.

Since childhood, Solovyov has 4 close friends. The relationship between men did not change at all after the athlete achieved fame and world recognition.

The 2018 European Championship in Moscow was a success for the Russian team. Katya and Dima won silver, losing to their constant rivals - the French Guillaume Sizeron and Gabriele Papadakis. The third place went to the Russian couple Ivan Bukin and Alexandra Stepanova.

At the Olympics in Korea, the personal pedestal for the Bobrova-Solovyov pair did not conquer, but the skaters received silver medals in team competitions. Dmitry then told reporters that he felt hurt, but not disappointed. Athletes skated all season, sparing no effort and not succumbing to circumstances. Soloviev did not rant about the fairness of refereeing, he believed that the main thing for a skater is to do his job well, to live the program on the ice, "the rest does not concern us."

Katya and Dima missed the World Championship, which followed less than a month later. Neither physical nor emotional strength remained for another serious tournament. Bobrova confirmed that she was going for family happiness, and articles appeared in the press, reflections on the topic of who would become Solovyov's partner.

The first on the list was the name of Elena Ilinykh, whose partner Ruslan Zhiganshin ended his career, and the tandem with Anton Shibnev did not cause optimism. However, the rumors were never confirmed.

While Catherine was resting, Dmitry had a good time. In the summer, the champion gave master classes for the children of Izhevsk. For a skater, this is one of the favorite activities. After the Olympics in Sochi, Soloviev graduated from the coaching department of the Moscow Academy of Physical Culture, but I'm not yet sure whether he wants to stand at the side and worry about the students.

In June 2018, the Russian Figure Skating Federation published a list of candidates for the national team for the upcoming season, including Ekaterina Bobrova and Dmitry Soloviev. Later, figure skating coach Alexander Zhulin confirmed that the return of the pair to the ice is quite possible. True, the athletes will gradually join the competitive process and the spectators will not see them at the Grand Prix. And now the champions delight the audience in the show "Ruslan and Lyudmila", directed by Tatiana Navka.

The show will show if Katya and Dima want to plunge into the competitive atmosphere again. The master of Soviet and Russian figure skating, Tatyana Tarasova, has already positively assessed the way the pair skates. And the music for future programs has also been selected.
