OLEKSANDRUSYK is just three weeks away from the biggest fight of the year. His wife Yekaterina will cheer from his corner.
The cat is focused on the highly anticipated clash of heavyweights with British icon Anthony Joshua.
Oleksandr Usyk and Kateryna are married since 2009.
Usyk will want to be proud of his long-term partner by dazzling AJ for a second time.
Who is the driving force behind Oleksandr's success story with Oleksandr Usyk?
Yekaterina Usyk, Oleksandr Usyk’s wife is who?
Yekaterina, also known as Kateryna, has chosen to keep her private life secret.
However, reports indicate that celebrity spouses are very popular in Ukraine, her home country.
Yekaterina, who is now the head of the foundation that belongs to the heavyweight champion, has claimed to have been close to Oleksandr Uysk for many years.
Kateryna is a rare social media presence, but she spoke out about her husband's physical condition during the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
PravdaTUT was told by Kateryna that Sasha had lost 10 kilograms within a week. He was in shock and so horrified that he was almost completely torn apart.
The reason is that Mrs Usyk holds a Russian citizenship, and the Oleksandr speaks Russian as his first language.
Are Oleksandr Usyk's wife Yekaterina and their children together?
They have three children, Kyrylo (Mykhalio), Yelizaveta (Yelizaveta), and are long-term lovers.
They were also involved in the incident at their family home, which was overrun and destroyed by Vladimir Putin's Ram Sackers.
Usyk’s children were part of the horrible family house incident during World War II
Usyk immediately moved his family from Ukraine after the incident
Every material element Usyk had worked for and earned was up in smoke and the wannabe-Hollywood-actor-turned-unified-heavyweight-king had no script to lean on.
Oleksandr stated that his children ask him: "Daddy, why are they trying to kill us?" I don't know the answer.
"My family is not in Ukraine right now, but many people I know and many of my closest friends are there.
"I keep in touch with them daily, and I ask them for updates.
"I was not ready to leave the country. I would like to stay there. "I will return to Ukraine immediately after the fight."
