In one of the most spectacular sports, he managed to show internal artistry, combined with the clarity of the implementation of individual elements. Duet programs are struck by the whole picture and consistency of partner movements.Childhood and youth
Guide Sizeron was born on November 12, 1994 in Montbrizon (Loire). Parents taught physical culture, and all children in the family Sieron began to play sports in childhood. At first, the boy studied judo and jumped on a trampoline, and in 2001, after the older sister came in figure skating.
Parents did not plan to raise the champion, but quickly noticed that the son is a born dancer.
"Dancing all your life, ice skates - this is a need," says the skater.Soon he was offered to work as a pair with Gabriella Papadakis. The teenager was embarrassed and refused under the pretext of the fact that he and one nicely riding. In 2004, an attempt was repeated, and this time the guys quickly felt the support of each other. Now the athlete is pleased that everything so happened:
"I believe in fate and that I had no reason to meet Gabriella. We are associated forever. To be together interesting, even if the choice is not yours. "Father recalls that when the whole family was fond of Canyoning, Guillaume needed a permanent supervision, because he always sought to go beyond the permissible. It is trying to expand them on ice, but the rules interfere:
"Figure skating is not exactly art: there are no rules in art. It is interesting that the artistic part of our sport affecting people "is interesting.Personal life
The athlete-greenhouse perceive as half a duet, but each of them is individual. Despite the fact that since childhood he spent a lot of time with a partner, the personality was formed outside the rink. Sport is not superficial, and hobby, it is not chained to figure skating. From Mother Guillaume received a subtle artistic taste, which expressed in love for dancing and music, talent to drawing. She showed her son and the basics of working with a cloth.Sieron believes that after the end of the sports career, his biography will become a history of man's art. In "Instagram", the skater lay out not only a photo from the competition, but also its own pencil drawings. More often, these are portraits of harmoniously folded people, but bright flowers and lung butterflies also admire the novice artist.
After a secondary school, the young man stood before the choice: learn drawing at school of fine arts in Lyon or continue to ride Gabriella. However, the partner went with him, and the problem disappeared. Since childhood, they laughed perfectly, laughed at one jokes and accustomed to understand each other without words. But figure skaters respect the distance between personal life and the connection on the ice. They know what happens in the life of everyone, but do not discuss the details.
In 2018, rumors appeared on the network about the non-traditional orientation of Sieron. The reason to talk about it appeared after the French figure skater shared a snapshot on social networks, which was captured in an embrace with an unknown man. There were no signatures under publication. After some time, he reappeared in the company of this man, but now in the "Instagram" Canadian Eric Redford, who does not hide what is gay.
And not only Guillaume's followers had guesses on this. Earlier, the Olympic champion Roman Kostomarov called the skating Papadakis and Sieron "Blue", stating that he did not see the human figure skaters. The french dancer replied to this discooling that it was not his problems and he doesn't care what the Russian colleague is thinking about his speeches.
And in May 2020, Sieron confirmed the guesses of the network users, making a caumbling out. He posted a photo with a guy in "Instagram" and wished everyone "happy international day against homophobia, transfobia and bipobia." They do not plan to play a wedding yet, but in the future they do not exclude such an opportunity.
This news was upset by some followers of the figure, and about 300 people even unsubscribed from his page, others supported idols. It is worth noting that the female part of the fans of Sieron also painfully perceived this news, since a prominent guy with an increase in 185 cm and weighing 78 kg was the object of adoration.
