Elena Dementieva to marry long-time boyfriend Maxim Afinogenov

9

Thanks to Alla Kudryavtseva and Twitter we’re learning that Elena Dementieva is getting married, according to the tweet I suppose on Saturday, July 16th. Dementieva’s husband will be her long-time boyfriend, 31-year-old Maxim Afinogenov. He is a professional ice hockey player.

This news is not a surprise at all. When Dementieva retired from tennis last October she hinted thinking about starting a family:

To be honest with you, I mean, if I would be a man I would never stop playing.  But in the age 29; I have to think about something else. I think I’m ready for the big change in my life.
