ÖSV star engaged: "The most important part of my life"

Austrian ski racer and last season's giant slalom World Cup winner Julia Scheib has gotten engaged. The 28-year-old revealed the news during her appearance on "Frühstück bei mir." The interview with Claudia Stöckl will air Sunday on the Ö3 radio show.

"My dream man is my fiancé," Scheib shared with great joy. Scheib has been in a relationship with her partner, Peter, for six years. Their bond was put to the test right from the start, as Scheib explained.

"He always has an answer and a plan"

"Our relationship went through an endurance test straight away because I was battling my second cruciate ligament injury and had swelling in my knee continuously for a year. Every day was a struggle back then. But he tried to help wherever he could," the Styrian said.

The ski racer also emphasized: "Peter is the most important part of my life, he is completely grounded. He always has an answer and a plan and is an incredible enrichment to my life."

According to Scheib, a date for the wedding has not yet been set. "We'll have to look at the training and race schedule first," said the 28-year-old, who doesn't want to stress about it.
