Lindsey Vonn Shares Heartbreak Over Attending Milan Olympics Without Her Beloved Dog Lucy: “She Was Always By My Side”

Lindsey Vonn shared an emotional sentiment ahead of the Milan 2026 Olympics, revealing how difficult it will feel attending without her beloved dog, Lucy. The loyal companion traveled the world with Vonn throughout her decorated skiing career.

Lucy wasn’t just a pet; she was a constant presence during Vonn’s competitive highs and personal challenges. Whether on snowy slopes or global tours, Lucy remained by her side, offering comfort and companionship. Her absence, Vonn says, will leave a significant void during the Olympic Games.

In an exclusive interview, Vonn described how Lucy helped her navigate the intense pressure of elite sports. “She calmed me, she grounded me,” Vonn recalled. Losing Lucy has made Vonn more reflective, especially as she returns to major events in a different role.

As the Milan Olympics draw nearer, Vonn prepares to participate as a commentator and ambassador. While excited for Italy’s spotlight, she admits the experience will feel incomplete. “Lucy traveled the world,” she said softly. “It’ll be hard without her.”
