Subsequently, thanks to their participation, both daughters from the Bobrov family began to engage in professional sports. Katya's sister has made a good career in the field of acrobatic rock and roll. And Catherine herself chose figure skating for herself.

Our heroine today had a chance to appear in the sports section for the first time in 1994, when four-year-old Katya Bobrova first appeared on the ice. At first, the girl practiced ice dancing as an independent athlete, but later the coaches advised her to pay attention to pair skating. So, already in 2000, at the suggestion of Svetlana Alekseeva and Elena Kustarova, Ekaterina Bobrova met her future partner Dmitry Solovyov.

The pair of skaters began appearing together at sports competitions the following year, but real success for a long time passed the athletes by. Due to constant failures, Ekaterina and Dmitry changed coaches several times, and as a result, a long search for optimal options bore fruit. The Moscow couple began training under the guidance of Alexander Zhulin, and he, in turn, very soon helped the skaters reach a fundamentally different level.

It is worth noting that the guys were not able to achieve success right away, partly due to the significant difference in height, because Ekaterina is only 166 centimeters tall, while Dmitry is 183 centimeters tall.

At that time, Andrei was still competing in the junior group, but managed to attract Katya’s attention with his performance and very attractive appearance.

After that first meeting, the young people did not see each other for some time, but then they met again on May 9, at the traditional athletes’ outing. Then they had a chance to communicate in an informal setting and get to know each other better. The guys fell in love with each other and soon began dating. However, due to the busy schedule of training and competitions, they did not see each other as often as they wanted.

The couple invited not only their relatives and friends, but also many colleagues, including their figure skating partners, to the wedding celebration. In total, about a hundred guests were present at the ceremony, and the young people decided to celebrate this event on the territory of the Orlovsky park and hotel complex. Catherine’s mentor, Alexander Zhulin, who was present at the celebration, expressed the hope that his ward would not rush into heirs and would wait at least until the end of the 2018 Olympics in Korea. And Zhulin wished Andrei to take care of such a treasure as Katya, and “forbade” him to get a divorce.

By the way, the figure skater refused to participate in the world championship in Milan, citing the fact that the past Olympic Games took a lot of mental and physical strength from her, and now she needs to rest and take a break. By the way, Ekaterina and her husband prefer to relax by the sea, because such a vacation contributes to the healing and restoration of joints, which is a very important aspect for athletes.
