“There is someone I wanted to share this with who might not be watching today,” he explained. “Six months ago, I met the love of my life, the most beautiful and kindest person in the world. Three months ago, I made the biggest mistake of my life and was unfaithful.”
“I had the gold medal in life, and I am sure there are many people who will see things differently, but I only have eyes for her,” Laegreid added. “Sport has come second these last few days. Yes, I wish I could share this with her.”
