Knotten and Nawrath make no secret of their love of biathlon
The two biathlon aces got to know each other better during the season-ending party at Holmenkollen in Oslo.
The Scandinavian says about the relationship and her new boyfriend: “He's a really good guy.
We’re having fun.”
The two were already spotted together at the start of the World Cup in Östersund.
The rumor mill then churned.
The 28-year-old Knotten and Nawrath, who is two years older, have made no secret about their relationship: “We didn't hide, we just didn't market it in any way.
I got kisses and hugs at the finish area.
Those who wanted to see this noticed it." However, when asked by
nrk
whether the Füssen resident had a Norwegian girlfriend, Nawrath previously said evasively: "No comment."

Knotten and Nawrath have a typical biathlon love affair
The relationship between the two biathlon stars seems to be good for both athletes.
The professional biathlete's special lifestyle, which is not always easy to manage for a partner, poses many problems.
With Knotten and Nawrath, however, these points of contention do not exist: “I think it's great to have someone who understands that.
We're pretty similar.
“He understands my decisions and I understand his decisions,” emphasizes the Norwegian.
Due to the many trips through the Biathlon World Cup, the two professionals inevitably see each other rather irregularly.
But that's okay, "because we are focused and professional in what we do," the 28-year-old continued.
The Norwegian was also happy about her friend's podium finish in Hochfilzen.
