    I don't think she should move to another country either. Competition and training is tough, she's under much scrutiny. She should have the support of family and close friends nearby.

    Most likely she has good support of some key family and friends.

    This has nothing to do with being ashamed or "hiding". After all, whenever she competes, she will be forever scrutinized publicly more than others because of the international limelight. And probably parts of her personal life in her own country/city wherever she lives.

    I knew my comment sounded strange...many people leave a country to live permanently elsewhere in a different culture/country faraway --even often leaving behind loving, supportive family members and friends. To begin the next stage of their life in...a different, freer way, away from frequent scrutiny/nosiness even if they have done nothing wrong.


    This is all conjecture, of course.

    I hope she does whatever makes her happy and that she's happy, whatever she does.
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.
