“Tonya has lost weight and is secretly training for a rumored surprise skating exhibition during the release of I, Tonya,” a source told Page Six. “She is not scheduled for interviews — but this highly anticipated exhibition is a possibility because she is training.”

The man hit Nancy on the leg with a police baton, attempting to break her leg. While Nancy was only bruised and could still compete, and went on to eventually beat Tonya, it ruined Tonya's career for good. Nancy most recently appeared on Dancing with the Stars.
