Since the beginning of May, the left welterweight of the Rostov handball club has been undergoing oncology treatment. The athlete was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma – cancer of the lymphatic system. The Tokyo Olympics silver medalist and Rio de Janeiro 2016 gold medalist underwent two cycles of chemotherapy.

Vladlena talks openly about her treatment. Now she showed how she parted with her hair. Bobrovnikova published a video in which her husband shaved her head. The athlete has been married to Italian swimmer Federico since 2015. The man has Russian citizenship.

“Now I’m bald and free! Honestly, it was hard to decide on this move! It’s like jumping in the Sky Park from a height of 207 meters! After I said goodbye to handball, Fe and I returned home. I tell him, “Come today, I’m ready!” He understood everything and shaved my head with loving hands!” admitted Vladlena.
