All I need in this life of sin (is me and my boyfriend)
Summary
TMZ @TMZ
Trouble in paradise? First Husbands of Hockey, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, spotted having a tense-looking debrief in their sprinter van right after leaving a fundraising event for the Ottawa Children’s Hospital. The couple appeared strained, sitting with quite a distance between them despite giving the appearance of being all over each other earlier in the night. Fans are wondering, is this the end of their chaotic “love story.”- or -
Shane's getting really tired of people talking shit about his husband.
Notes
Aye, I finished school, so y'all can now call me bittlebarnes, PhD.
Anyway, this is partially inspired by ASAP and Rih in that car after the Met Gala, and partially by the 3-leaf endive salad I had at a charity event last year. Literally 3 leaves and some edible flowers. I wanted to kill my husband and then myself.

Photo 1:
[The photo is taken from a distance using a zoom lens: Shane and Ilya Hollander-Rozanov can be seen through the window. Both are clearly dressed for an event. Hollander is seated on one side of the sprinter van, hands in his lap with a neutral expression, mouth turned slightly down at the corners. Rozanov appears to be mid-sentence, mouth open and gesturing with his hands to a disinterested-looking Hollander.]

[Taken on the carpet outside the fundraiser hall: Shane and Ilya Hollander-Rozanov are clearly stopped for photos. Both are wearing media smiles. They’re holding hands.]

Whole TL worked up about a PR relationship btw. Yuna Hollander strikes again 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
↳Roza-Femme @itsalwaysrainy
Dating Ilya edged up Shane's image. Dating Shane cleaned up Ilya's. Made both of them more palatable to brands and gave them more opportunities. Everything is fake under capitalism
↳↳Ex Montreal Stan @imonlyhereforhollander
Dating Rozanov literally got Shane kicked off the Metros how are we rewriting history already????
↳↳Its Hole-ander actually @hollalujah
I'm begging yall to touch grass 😣😣
No It IS That Serious 🏒 @hockeyismylife46
Yeah, so Shan’es not gonna fuck you. You can bash Ilya (HIS HUSBAND) all you want. You can tell Shane to leave him. Okay. Then what? He’s not gonna pick you!

Kip: I included a lot of folks related to the Admirals. Gloria had some repeat offenders too.
Kip: The amount of people obsessed with Scott?? I think he inspired a character in a book, and the amount of sexual harassment….
Kip: Comms just wanted him to ignore it. I took his phone and blocked all of it for him. Idc if they think I’m overstepping
