“The ISU is shocked by the news of Ekaterinas passing,” stated ISU President Jan Dijkema in a statement on the companys website. “She was a gifted pair skater and the Figure Skating neighborhood will miss her. We provide our deepest compassions to her family, good friends and teammates and mourn this tragic loss.”
Details of her death were not immediately known.
Alexandrovskaya teamed up with Harley Windsor of Australia in 2016.
Windsor published an image of the pair on Instagram and composed: “Words can not describe how I feel today, I am devastated and sick to my core about the abrupt and sad passing of Katia.
They announced completion of their skating career as a pair in early 2020.
” Due to health issues, Katia and I are not able to continue,” Windsor wrote on Instagram in February. “I desire to take this opportunity to wish Katia all the very best in the future and a fast recovery.”
The quantity we had achieved throughout our partnership is something I can never forget and will always hold near to my heart. This news is something you can never get ready for. Rest In Peace Katia.”
The set represented Australia in global competitors, winning the World Junior title in 2017, the ISU states.
” They went on to make history as the very first Australian skaters to win an ISU Championship title,” the ISU states. The set won ISU Junior Grand Prix Final title in 2017 and completed at the 2018 Olympic Winter Games.
