Nadia Comăneci And Caitlyn Jenner
Nadia was not the only athlete who made celebrity status at the 1976 Olympic Games held in Montreal, Canada. Caitlyn Jenner was also making headlines as a gold medalist, competing in Track and Field. Jenner explained, “Gymnastics finished before Track and Field started, so I was already gone by the time she competed”, so the two didn’t actually meet until 2016. When they did, they immediately made a connection.

Nadia Comăneci And Arnold Schwarzenegger
Jenner was not the only athletic celebrity keen for an introduction with Nadia Comăneci. Nadia was working out at her local gym one day, when Schwarzenegger, the former California governor, came over and asked her for a snap, and posted it on social media with the following caption; “It is fantastic to get to the gym early and have an Olympic champion as your trainer – thanks Nadia Comaneci! 10 reps to honor the first perfect 10 score in the Olympics.”
