My proudest skate of these games was the short program in the team event. That moment was indescribable. Our best this year. I am so grateful to share this experience with my teammates who made this victory attainable. We've created a bond that will never be broken! Thanks team!
Headed home! ✈️It’s been a glorious time filled with countless memories that I will hold dear to my heart forever! Now it’s time to be reunited with my hubby!

They asked me, “How did you know you had what it took to become an Olympian?”
My answer: “My mom always told me I had it within me. And ‘mom is always right’. She never let me NOT believe it.”
Happiest of Birthdays to you Momma! May this week of skating be our gift to you.
Would you say the same thing if it was your daughter competing? Its ok Philly Poo.... i know shame tweeting is your thing. Looks like you got the gold medal tonight! Congrats!!!! ✌💋

May the hearts of those who are mourning the loss of victims in the shooting today be lifted up. You are on my mind and on my heart. God bless you all.
It was a pleasure to debut our new material for the season here in Boston! I’m eager to see what strides we can make as we continue putting in the work. Thank you to everyone for your love and kindness! It means so much to us! 🖤

The love for Todd is endless. His kindness and light shine brighter than any other. Due to the severity of Todd’s condition we are asking everyone to come together to help Todd, Jenni, and the boys. We will continue to do whatever it takes to support them.

When I won Regionals as an Intermediate lady my Nana promised me a year supply of fudgsicles. She stocked our freezer every two weeks. I got mad when my dad ate one. One.

In the end, the depths of his depravity were surpassed only by the heights of courage & leadership on display by the women in that courtroom.

Does anyone else binge watch YouTube videos of skating when they can’t sleep? My go to is always programs from Aljona and Robin. I’ve seen them all. At least 100x. At least.

When you’re married and skate together, you may share the same jet lag problems.... which can lead skating at the crack of dawn because you’ve been up together since 2am!
