Weir, 29, and Voronov, a lawyer, married in a New York civil ceremony in December 2011. Both men took on new surnames, Weir-Voronov, but Weir continued to go by his old name professionally.

Earlier this year, Weir was back in the limelight thanks to his dazzling outfits and delightful chemistry with fellow ex-figure skater Tara Lipinski. In addition to providing commentary together for the 2014 Winter Olympics, the duo covered the Oscars red carpet for Access Hollywood .

However, RadarOnline.com reported that Weir and his husband were involved in a domestic dispute shortly before Weir went to Sochi. Voronov allegedly filed a police report claiming that Weir bit him, but the couple later requested that the case be dismissed. The dismissal was granted.
