What is I, Tonya about?

I, Tonya is based on figure-skater Tonya Harding, who became the first American woman to complete a triple axel during a competition in 1991.

However, in 1994 her ex-husband Jeff Gillooly plots to injure Nancy Kerrigan, who is Tonya’s Olympic rival.

Kerrigan is forced to withdraw from the national championship and Harding’s career and legacy are instantly tarnished as she is linked to the attack through her ex-husband.

In fact, Allison wanted to become an Olympic figure skater herself, but she ran through a sliding glass window aged 17, cutting tendons and losing arteries.

She keeps her private life private, but is dating IATSE production coordinator Philip Joncas, who at 38 is 20 years her junior.

Allison’s net worth is estimated at being $4million (£2.8m).
