Olympian Oksana Baiul Claimed Ex-Husband ‘Harassed’ and ‘Belittled’ Her Before Settling Divorce

More details in Olympian Oksana Baiul’s tumultuous divorce from ex-husband Carlo Farina are coming to light.

According to a Wednesday, January 7, report from Us Weekly, the 48-year-old figure skater claimed that Farina violated a court order stating that they do not harass one another after he filed for divorce last summer.

The mother of one claimed her ex-husband sent her an August 22 text message in which he “harassed, demeaned, belittled, attacked and attempted to manipulate” her and demanded he be forced to appear in court, per the publication.

Baiul also claimed Farina took items from their home and moved into a Las Vegas condo. (In September, the ice skater revealed via Facebook that their home in Shreveport, Louisiana, was for sale.)

“Farina’s removal of community property from the family and matrimonial residence has been willful and deliberate, and constitutes contempt which has caused hardship and further damage to Baiul,” her lawyer wrote in court docs, per Us Weekly.

As the National Enquirer previously reported, the renowned pro figure skater who took home the Gold at the 1994 Olympics reached an agreement in her messy divorce in October.

Farina will have primary custody of their 10-year-old daughter, Sophia, according to Us Weekly. Baiul will reportedly be allowed time with Sophia when Farina sets up a visit and if their daughter agrees to it.

The athlete also agreed to enroll in anger management classes, per the outlet, and be tested for alcohol and drugs to “ensure she is remaining sober.” (Baiul was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol in 1997, but the charges were dropped after she met the terms of her probation.)

In Farina’s divorce filing, he accused Baiul of “verbal abuse” and toxic behavior. Baiul denied the allegations and made similar claims against her ex.

In August, Baiul announced on Facebook that she and Farina were divorcing.

“Dear extended fam and friends, I’m expressing myself to you this morning regarding my personal circumstances,” she wrote alongside a photo of the two of them.  “My husband and I are divorcing,” she added. “I am asking for prayers and I am praying for #sophiabaiulfarina … #sobriety 💕 In Gods hands know thank you for my lesson ❤️‍🩹.”
