The famous Russian athlete, rhythmic gymnast, two-time world champion and five-time European champion, public figure, State Duma deputy, presenter of the program on the REN-TV channel - all these titles belong to Alina Kabaeva. Today we will talk about it. So, the theme of our today's article is "The Personal Life of Alina Kabaeva"

Born athlete May 12, 1983 in Tashkent in the family of professional athletes. She studied at the 195 school in Tashkent, where she still holds a commemorative plaque of her achievements. From early childhood, at 3.5 years old, her mother gives Alina for artistic gymnastics. Yes, and the choice in the family of athletes did not stand, where to give your child. Parents planned to lead the girl either to gymnastics, or to figure skating. Since in the hot Tashkent you do not really ride, the choice was decided in favor of gymnastics. When Alina was 12 years old, her mother realized that the girl should be sent to Moscow for greater development of her potential. Irina Wiener becomes the coach of the young gymnast, which puts the girl in a condition to lose weight (Alina was inclined to fullness, judging by gymnastics standards, for which she received the nickname of "TV on legs" at a young age).

Since 1995, the young gymnast has been training with Winner, and since 1996 starts to play for the Russian national team. The career of the sportswoman is growing rapidly, because after two years of participation in the national team (Alina was 15 years old), the gymnast wins the European Championship in 1998, and subsequently wins this title four more times. In 1999, Kabaeva is at the peak of her abilities and wins the World Cup. But as all people have ups and downs, so Kabayeva has a "black streak". In 2000, at the Olympics in Sydney, she took only 3 place, and in 2001 a doping scandal broke out, for which 2 Russian athletes, Kabaeva and Chaschina, were disqualified for 2 years and deprived of the Goodwill Games awards. These two years have not passed without a trace for Alina, she is leading the program "Empire of Sports" on the TV channel "7 TV", is removed in the video of the musical group "The Game of Words", is removed in the Japanese film "Red Shadow". In 2004, at the Olympiad in Athens, the gymnast takes 1st place. Alina Kabaeva's personal life also did not give rest to the journalist. In the media, it has always been written about her numerous novels, which at that time simply could not be. the girl devoted all free time to sports. There were rumors that Alina would take part in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, but this did not happen, as in 2007 she completed her sports career. However, the end of her career was the beginning of the end for the ex-sportswoman: in the same year she graduated from the Moscow State University of Service in the specialty of "sports management", became a member of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, is part of the party "United Russia", and acts as deputy chairman of the Committee on Youth Affairs. In 2008, REN-TV started the author's Alina Kabaeva's program "Steps to success", where the newly baked TV presenter tells about the life and career of successful people.

Also in 2008, the world public was literally shocked by the news about the upcoming wedding of Kabayeva and Putin, published in the newspaper "Moscow correspondent". In connection with this event, the press secretary of the sportswoman demands that the newspaper give a refutation, and Vladimir Putin at one of the press conferences calls this story with marriage a fiction, in which there is no part of the truth. Soon after such a statement, the editor-in-chief of the Moscow correspondent newspaper was dismissed, and the publication itself was suspended allegedly because of the newspaper's unprofitable existence.

In 2009, Kabaeva graduated from St. Petersburg State University of Physical Culture named after PF Lesgaft, continues to lead the program "Steps to success." Also, the ex-gymnast was recognized as the owner of high incomes among sportsmen deputies for the last year (in the certificate of income the amount of 12.9 million rubles was indicated). It was in 2009 that the gymnast becomes the mother of her son, but her father's name is not disclosed. And in the newspaper "Reader's Digest" a survey was published, according to which the athlete was recognized as the "best" mom.

In June 2010, another scandal involving Alina Kabaeva flares up, as the Public Chamber was to publish a list of absentees who did not attend the Duma sessions, which, judging from the version of the various Internet publications, was supposed to include an athlete. But soon the Chamber itself denied this information. Also in 2010, Kabaeva falls on the cover of the Russian edition of Vogue magazine and becomes one of the few Russian "non-models" that succeeded.

In just begun 2011 Alina also succeeded - she applied to Rospatent to register her trademark under the name "Alina Doll". Manufacturers of toys in a panic: because if an athlete succeeds in patenting a product under this name, they will have to urgently remove from their production dolls with the same name. The application of the athlete is still under consideration. As stated in the press service of the ex-gymnast, the creation of "Dolls ..." should be timed to the children's festival of rhythmic gymnastics "Alina". Apparently, it is these creations that the athlete is going to give to all participants. That's it, Alina Kabaeva's personal life.
