There is an interview where Foy goes into more details, and I find it particularely heartbreaking because her reasons for not coming forward remind me a lot of why someone I know who got sexually assaulted (and had many people who had both witnessed it and were willing to testify) didn't report it to the police.
The person who alleges to have been sexually assaulted by Nikolaj Sørensen has come forward publicly.

After all, Trento is the capital of Alto Adige... For me personally Trento is nicer places than Bolzano, but I haven't been there for many years, so maybe I would have a different opinion now.
A comeback would absolutely be doable - Joe Pavey, Mara Yamauci & Georgia Hunter Bell all rejoined the sport very successfully after many years out with careers or family.
This is not a full retirement, but kind of a break/sabbatical due to...reasons.
For those who have been following @brunamoura's journey towards and last February eventually, finally, at the Olympics, this might be an interesting update. The 2030 Olympics are still in her sight, but next year's world championships in February seem...unlikely.
She still needs to do at least two surgeries, one on her nasal cavities due to a chronic inflammation that has been bothering her for years, and one on her legs. In the Olympic season she struggled immensely with pain in her legs, which in the freestyle technique made her sometimes just not even able to move and therefore finish or even start the races. The Olympic 10k freestyle was hard and painful, but she managed to get through it. We knew she was dealing with compartment syndrome, which is quite serious and certainly needs to be dealt with surgically, but the recovery time for that meant that doing so during the season would likely jeopardize the Olympics - again.
The plan was to do the surgeries this year, but that's unlikely to happen now...
