Meet Sturla Holm Lægreid, the Olympian who admitted to cheating on his girlfriend

The 2026 Winter Olympics keep going viral for the wrong reasons. American athletes Breezy Johnson and Alysa Liu, who won gold in women’s downhill and figure skating respectively, broke their medals soon after clinching their big wins. Elsewhere, Czech ice dancers Kateřina Mrázková and Daniel Mrázek have been facing criticism for using an AI-generated track in their Olympic rhythm dance routine, per People magazine. There are also reports of a norovirus outbreak in the Olympic Village, notes CNN. But the latest in this line-up of chaotic stories is a man begging for a second chance.
