Ona Carbonell: A boyfriend in the 'shadow', family therapies and fashion addict

Neither the very Poseidon would have been capable of such feats. Ona Carbonell Ballestero (31) is an unprecedented social revolution. The best swimmer in history. She eye on data: 23 world medals, 10 hours per day of training and 16 years under pressure. The participation of it at the Gwangju World Cup (South Korea) and at the Tokyo Olympic Games, where she had to travel without her son, Kai, have become a legend. She already belongs to Olympus as the dreaded God of Greek mythology.

Your parents are doctors. Jordi is rheumatologist and Montse, traumatologist. The older brother of her, Max, is her confessor. She five years ago she was a doctorate in synthetic biology with a thesis in English. There are few like him and almost none like her.

Her friend and companion Gemma Mengual (44) describes it exclusively to Loc as "very ambitious, if you get something in your head seek all the means to get it and know how to do it." They were aquatic duo. Among his hobbies is fashion. In fact, she has finished the design career and two years ago she released her bikinis collection 'Be You' by Taymory. Some of the lucid batteries in competitions have been created by it.

Mengual confesses one of his maniah: "When we were at the airports at two o'clock our eyes were going to the stores and in the end we had just buying something. Ona has a very peculiar taste, it looks a lot about the quality of the garments and not It is to buy fashion for use. " She loves attending events and posing in the photocalls, where she avoids meeting with the also swimmer Mireia Belmonte (31). "They are competition, they do not swallow and both love to pose before the photographers," says a Catalan journalist Breada on sports issues. In the Saraos she tends to wear long and, if possible, brand.

It is laughing, flirtatious and reserved. For more than ten years the heart of her beats through Elite's Gymnast Pablo Ibáñez. Even much more reserved than her. In fact, they officially posted for the first time five years ago in the world childhood gala and its appearances are very scarce. The last time they posted together was at the premiere of the good patron, in Madrid, on October 14. She with him has had her son Kai -mar in Japanese - and in a few months they will welcome the second child of her. Although she hates the spotlights, she did not miss Masterchef Celebrity set to encourage her girlfriend, who ended up winning the edition. The family lives with two reception dogs in Viladecans (Barcelona).

It is aware of the environment, it supports the LGTBI causes, it is solidarity to the marrow, it loves the sun, enjoys with the crowded terraces of people and loves to do family therapy to motivate. She in a multitude of occasions she cried while she was driving and, when she got home, her mother always comforted him. "I put ice on my legs ..." she admits. For her, her father is a hero, although he does not wear a cloak. Friendship is another of her great pillars. Mengual explains that "our circle of friendships are athletes, former swimmers and a friend who leaves this circle."

Its values and concerns transmits them through its collection of books Elena Sirena. The sport of her is macho and without visibility for women. Only two stunning men are ahead of her, Michael Phelps (36), with 33 medals, and Ryan Lochte (36), with 27. Nothing bad for someone who started doing rhythmic gymnastics and that as a child was scared to drown.
