Ilia Malinin and Tara Lipinski's Daughter Share a Sweet Moment
Tara Lipinski posted an Instagram carousel on February 17 showing her two-year-old daughter, Georgie, spending time with 21-year-old Ilia Malinin, who was just over a week removed from earning a gold medal in the team figure skating event at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics.
After Malinin placed his gold medal around Georgie's neck, the toddler sat on his lap and took in the sights and sounds of the Winter Games. Lipinski, a former competitive skater who now works as a commentator, gushed over the candid moment in her caption: "This moment," Lipinski wrote.
"You can tell Ilia is a great big brother, he was just so sweet with Georgie." She is also competing in The Traitors Season 4 on Peacock alongside fellow former Olympian Johnny Weir and has served in the broadcast booth for multiple figure skating events during the 2026 Games.
