Seeing a woman wearing a full Sagan cycling kit, the journalist approached her with hopes of a great fan footage material. When she states she’s originally from Slovakia, he gets excited and asks her right away: “What do you make of Peter Sagan?” That’s the exact moment of realization and you can see in Katarina Sagan’s face that she becomes aware that he has no idea to whom is he talking to, and she laughs and sportily continues that he’s “pretty cool” and a real hero, especially for her. But eventually, the truth comes to light as Somolaris asks her if she lives in Australia, to which she swiftly replies: “No, I live with Peter.”
After outbursts of laughter from both sides and the obligatory sorry-I-didn’t-recognize-you response the interview continues with a few curious questions about how Peter handles attention and fame – amidst all the mess we must admit that Somolaris is a true professional.
And you thought your work screw-ups were awkward.
