Olympic ice dance champion Gabriella Papadakis says she lost her commentary job with NBC for the upcoming Winter Olympics because of how her former skating partner responded to the claims she made in her new book.
In an interview with sports daily L’Équipe, the retired French skater said the decision came after Guillaume Cizeron publicly pushed back against what she wrote in “So as Not to Disappear,” which was released this week. Cizeron asked his lawyers on Tuesday to formally put all parties involved on notice to stop the “ dissemination of defamatory statements” about him.
