The 37-year-old Norwegian means, however, that her husband's prompts have been of a more joking nature, and that the decision to end the active career remains firm. But Hoff can't help but tease his wife. For Expressen, Johaug tells that the couple made pizza one day. Hoff then took the opportunity to lay out the tomatoes like Olympic Games rings.

He asked me if I could see what they represented and I just said "yes, damn it!", she says to Expressen.

Johaug won 4 Olympic Games gold, 14 World Championship gold and a further 11 championship medals during her skiing career.
