I need a boyfriend but can’t find the right match, says China’s Olympic sweetheart Fu Yuanhui
Straight-talking swimmer also candidly mentions the unmentionable during interviews
China’s swimmer-turned-internet darling Fu Yuanhui has told a mainland TV station that she is in urgent need of a boyfriend.
Dressed in a one-piece dress, 20-year-old Fu appeared in the latest episode of Zhejiang Television’s Champion Fun programme on Tuesday.
She revealed to viewers that she’d never been in a relationship because “there’s no appropriate candidate in our [swimming] team, and even the most handsome guys have become my brothers as we train together,” she said.
Fu, 20, made a sensation online earlier this month when she told a mainland TV reporter that she had used up all of her “mystical power” with funny facial expressions after winning bronze in the 100m backstroke final at the Rio Olympics.
