The husband of boxer Natalya Ragozina, who gave birth at 46, died mysteriously

Happiness collapsed in a second: the athlete got married last fall

A sports star, world boxing champion Natalya Ragozina has a tragedy. Suddenly, her beloved husband Vadim died, whom she married only last year and gave birth to a daughter, Nastenka. Vadim flew to Moscow from Israel for a few days, where he left his wife and baby. Death came quickly. The reason is called succinctly: “the heart stopped.”

Natalya Ragozina is one of the brightest Russian athletes. Now she is 47, and at the age of seventeen, a native of Karaganda (then the family moved to Russia, to Nizhny Tagil) became the European champion in kickboxing, switched to boxing and won the title of world champion. Natalia was called the “Russian sledgehammer”: in her entire career she did not have a single defeat.

The tall beautiful blonde, with all her sports titles, was not very lucky in her personal life. The first husband, master of sports in hand-to-hand combat Mikhail Kolpakov, pestered with jealousy and forbade playing sports. As a result, the athlete raised her son Ivan alone. With her second husband, the famous lawyer Sergei Zhorin, the marriage lasted only two years. Natalya wanted more children, the couple did not agree on this issue. In addition, work took away all the time from the lawyer.

Then Ragozina met a businessman named Vadim, whom she called the man of her life. Dreaming of a child, the athlete made a pilgrimage to holy places in Jerusalem.

At 46, Natalia became pregnant, got married last summer, and last fall gave birth to a charming daughter, Nastya.

The husband took Ragozina to Israel, believing that the local climate would be useful for her and the baby. When Natalya was pregnant, her beloved father died, who constantly lived with her and raised her grandson Ivan. This was a big blow for the athlete, her husband believed that she needed a change of scenery.

Ragozina unequivocally supported the Russian special operation in Ukraine. In Israel, she prayed in Orthodox churches, on Russia Day she was at the Russian Embassy, ​​where she was photographed with our military and the Russian flag, and earlier congratulated men on Defender of the Fatherland Day. The son of an athlete last year served his military service in the Russian army.

After the birth of Nastenka, the family lived in two countries – Natalya starred on Russian TV and was engaged in sports projects. These days, Ragozina and her daughter were in Israel, and Vadim flew to Moscow on business, just for a few days.

In Moscow, the husband of the champion suddenly died. The cause of death of a 57-year-old man is described extremely sparingly: “cardiac arrest.” Other details are unknown – surrounded by a couple, they said that Vadim had no illnesses, he looked great, went in for sports …

Natalia urgently flew to Moscow. She and her husband planned to widely celebrate the first birthday of their daughter in September. Now it’s time for the funeral. The athlete says to her relatives that she cannot believe in the departure of her husband from life.
