Alpine skiing star Lindsey Vonn is filing for divorce from her husband Thomas, according to Yahoo.
The two have been married for four years, and Thomas serves as her chief adviser and schedule organizer.
"This is an extremely difficult time in my personal life and I hope the media and my fans can respect my need for privacy on this matter," she said, according to the report.
Lindsey adds that she will continue to be coached by the United States team, and looks forward to competing the rest of the season. She missed the season-opening World Cup slalom race in Aspen with a back injury.
She won the gold medal in the women's downhill event at the 2010 Winter Olympics. She has also won gold in world championships in the downhill and super-G events.
