They share an iron character and a fox look: what Alina Kabaeva’s mother looks like

Alina Kabaeva was destined to become an Olympic champion. She was born into a family of professional athletes: her father, Marat Kabaev, was a footballer and played for the USSR youth team, and her mother, Lyubov Mikhailovna, was a member of the national basketball team. from Uzbekistan.

On the web you can find a lot of archival photos of Alina Kabaeva with her mother, from which it is clear that she entered her not only with a punchy character, but also with bright features. A nose, a smile, thick and wide eyebrows, and most importantly a sly, piercing gaze – all this the sports star took from Lyubov Mikhailovna. From her father, a Tatar by nationality, Alina inherited, perhaps, a special eye shape.

By the way, at the very beginning of Kabaeva’s career, and even about 10 years ago, Lyubov Mikhailovna was quite actively published with her daughter. However, you cannot find absolutely fresh photos of the mother of the Olympic champion: she only occasionally flashes some general images on social networks.

It is known that Lyubov Mikhailovna divorced her husband many years ago and after that she remained to live next to her daughter in Moscow. Now the woman holds the post of president of the Kuntsevo sports complex and, according to rumors, lives in elite apartments in the center of the capital.
