The biathlon star, who shocked the world by suddenly confessing to his affair shortly after winning an Olympic medal, caused another accident. Sturla Holm Regrade (29, Norway) won an additional medal and was at the center of the topic again.

According to "NBC News" and "AP News" reports on the 14th (Korea Standard Time), Legrade ranked third with a time of 23:09 in the men's 10km sprint event at the 2026 Milan-Cortina D'Ampezzo Winter Olympics at the Biathlon Arena in Anterselva, Italy. It is the second bronze medal of this competition after the bronze medal he won in the men's 20km individual event on the 11th.

After winning her first bronze medal last Tuesday, Legrade caused a stir in a live interview when she broke down in tears and made an unprecedented confession that "I met my girlfriend, my best love of my life, six months ago, but I betrayed her and cheated on her three months ago." At the time, Regrade said, "I decided to make this known to the world because I wanted to take her back with everything I had."

He even damaged his colleagues with his absurd remarks.. Regrade also apologized in a team statement on Wednesday, saying, "I deeply regret revealing my personal history on the festival day of Norwegian biathlon," after criticism that he had determined the performance of his gold-medal teammate Johan Olav Borton (Norway).

Despite the psychological pressure caused by the privacy controversy, Legrade's performance did not falter. In this 10km sprint, he once again stood on the podium, displaying his concentration to not miss a single shooting target. After the game, Legrade said: "This is something I've been doing all my life. I've been trying to focus on training for a long time, and it's coming to fruition," he said, adding, "I'm trying to focus on one shot step at a time despite the controversy I've created myself."

But his obsession with his ex-girlfriend did not stop. "A lot of people will see me differently now, but I'm only looking at her," Regrade told Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK), adding, "The sport has taken a bit of a back seat over the past few days. I want to share this moment with her," he confessed again.

Regrade also told reporters, "I thought I might have an opportunity to know how precious she is to me by letting the world know what I've done. I don't want to leave any regrets that I didn't do everything I could to get her back," he added.

Despite Legrade's public courtship, the response of his ex-girlfriend, who is the party, is cold. In an interview with Norwegian media 'VG', she clarified her intention to break up, saying, "It's painful that I'm in this situation, and even if I confessed my love in front of the world, it's hard to forgive his behavior."

She then refused to disclose her name, saying, "I am grateful for the support of my family and friends, and I am grateful to everyone who sympathized and supported me without knowing me."

Even during the game, Legrade was controversial. She won the bronze medal in the 10km sprint in 22 minutes and 53.1 seconds, followed by Cantain Piñon Maier of France, who won the second place, and Betlé Shostad Christiansen of Norway, who was criticized for her sarcastic attitude toward fourth-place finisher Emilien Jaquelin of France after the race.

It was a rather absurd remark. Legrade pointed out, "Did Jacqueline miss the medal because she was late talking with the crowd on the last lap?" Angered by this, Jaquelin said, "I ended up losing to a conman. I will definitely beat him in Sunday's game," he responded harshly.
