Damn.

 

[caseyedwards]

Very disappointing for Canada!

 

[skategal]

Wow. Sad news.

I hope Juliane's health is okay. I know she suffered from many effects from multiple concussions.

I can't help but think that may have played a role in the breakup.

 

[chantilly]

This sucks!
Totally shocked.
What a bummer of a day for FS.
What with Denis too!

 

[oleada]

I’m not super surprised, based on all their setbacks. It’s disappointing for Canadian Pairs.

 

[Frau Muller]

Huh?

 

[Habs]

 

[Catherine M]

That's a shame that they never really reached their full potential.

Best of luck as they both figure out what their next step will be. Wish them both well!

 

[Foolhardy Ham Lint]

So sad. I really loved seeing them skate live and in person in Shanghai when they first appeared on the senior scene.

 

[Rafter]

Not that surprised given her concussion history.

 

[kirkbiggestfan]

He is so good. They will all line-up to skate with him.
My secret dream was to have a Canadian dream team of KTM/ Bilodeau.

[kittysk8ts]

Nooooooooo. They just freaking announced their music too. UGH.

??? how you dare even to say this?

 

[pat c]

Well, dayum. (sigh) Good luck to both of them in future endeavors whatever they decide to do. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement, but it's understandable.

What a terrible day for news from the skating world today. This makes me so sad. Their spark and joy together will be very much missed.

[Katta]

I wish Lubov hadn't signed on with Cirque......

 

[Finnice]

Dang. I really liked them and especially their Grand Budapest Hotel SP.

This was my thoughts during OG.
I like SB so much, but last two seasons somethimg went wrong and maybe they coulsn't fix it, wich is sad.

Wishing all the best to Julianne and Charlie in their future! I'm selfishly disappointed as they were ne of my personal favorite teams to watch for their spontaneous joy and connection. I had so much hope for this next quad! Their performances were one of my highlights at the JGPF and GPFs.

 

[victoriajh]

Wow .... three top pairs done.... our pairs are dropping like flies.... the comment "end their partnership" is interesting. they are not retiring but splitting? They are an off ice couple too are they not?

 

[Catherine M]

They are an off ice couple too are they not?

No they are not an off ice couple. Julianne has a boyfriend that is another skater.

 

[barbarafan]

Wow. Sad news.

I hope Juliane's health is okay. I know she suffered from many effects from multiple concussions.

I can't help but think that may have played a role in the breakup.

I am really surprised. They were entered in Quebec summer championships starting Aug 9th and Meagan Duhamel was supposed to help with the coaching.

 

[Rock2]

No they are not an off ice couple. Julianne has a boyfriend that is another skater.

Matthieu Ostiguy

He's only 5/10 but wonder if there will be an announcement on that since he could use an upgrade in partner.....

 

[peibeck]

Wow, this has been a shocking day for sad skating news. I wish the best in their future endeavors.

 

[BittyBug]

They were so much fun and I loved their energy and style. Definitely a loss for the sport.
