Shane Hollander-Rozanov ✅ @shanehollander 8:56 a.m. [Paris]
🙂
I have been asked many times what it’s like being married to Ilya Rozanov. I’ll give you all a snippet of the texts he sends me.
|
↳@hollanovnationHQ: im so glad i stayed up late to see this in time
|
↳@2481forever: uhhh king, i mean we’re glad ‘cos it’s like past breakfast time where i am but are you ok over there?
↳↳@shanehollander: Yeah. It’s about 9 a.m. here in Paris, and my flight’s delayed by at least two hours, and I haven’t had any sleep. Ilya’s back in Ottawa, and it’s only 3 a.m. over there.
↳↳↳@2481forever: and you are missing your big bad Russian? (❤️ by Shane)
↳↳↳↳@CensCensCens: alright Mr Hollander-Rozanov the floor is yours.
|
↳@hdrover: I jolted awake ‘cos my soul felt a disturbance in the air. Immediately went online and this is what I see…
↳↳@hollanovnationHQ: made this for you Harris

↳↳↳@hdrover: Thanks. I’m printing this out.
Ilya Hollander-Rozanov ✅ @rozy81 7:28 a.m. [Ottawa]
I wake up to find that my husband, @shanehollander, caused some mild chaos online? Whaaaaaat? 🫨
|
↳@hdrover: I want to blame you but I know for a fact that you and Shane are on the same brain frequency. (❤️ by Ilya)
Shane Hollander-Rozanov ✅ @shanehollander 9:02 a.m. [Paris]
Being married to Ilya means you get reports like this in the morning. Even when you’re just in a different part of the house…

|
↳@AnyaRozanovaFanClub: omg hi Anya!!!
|
↳@2481forever: lmao sending @ScottHunter a chirp before lunch time is very on brand for Ilya
↳↳@ot7and105: i wonder if he has an alarm though or like a to-do list
↳↳↳@2481forever: Ilya Rozanov’s to-do list: 1. Shane. 2. Cuddle with Anya. 3. Chirp Hunter and others.
|
↳@BethMay: he was so proud of his morning report
|
↳@hollanovnationHQ: our duality king!!!
|
↳@CensCensCens: different parts of the house? Where was he? Where were you?
↳↳@shanehollander: He was in the living room, and I was just upstairs…
|
↳@81baby: oh wow that contact photo of Roz...can we have the HD version? 👀
↳↳@shanehollander: No.
|
↳@shanesfreckles: need me someone who can’t go a minute without talking to me

|
↳@hdrover:

Scott Hunter ✅ @ScottHunter 7:31 a.m. [New York]
[QT: lmao sending @ScottHunter a chirp before lunch time is very on brand for Ilya]
For anyone curious, this was the chirp…

|
↳@shanesfreckles: lmao the way he said bother Shane and Ilya went to report?

↳↳@KipGradyHunter: 🤣🤣🤣
↳↳↳@ScottHunter: Kip 😐
Shane Hollander-Rozanov ✅ @shanehollander 9:11 a.m. [Paris]
Being married to Ilya means he’ll text you random stuff. Exhibit A.

|
↳@2481forever: DOM SIDE?!
↳↳@shanehollander: The message is from a year ago. I still don’t know what he meant. I do not want clarification.
|
↳@hollanovnationHQ: like dominance? In bed or…?
↳↳@shanehollander: I honestly don’t know. I have learned to take it all in stride.
|
↳@ot7and105: lmao shane really said when you’ve been in a relationship with your hot chaotic rival for a decade plus, you just say ok and move on sometimes (❤️by Shane)
|
↳@troybarrett: was wondering why my boyfriend had to go make himself a cup of tea at three in the morning. Of course it’s because one of you is being like this online.
↳↳@boodram: i mean it’s only tea. When it’s Roz, Harris usually goes straight to alcohol
↳↳↳@troybarrett: fair. Why are you awake?
↳↳↳↳@boodram: on diaper and milk duty. couldn’t go back to sleep just yet. want to see where Hollzy goes with this 😌
↳↳↳↳↳@troybarrett: and then chirp them after?
↳↳↳↳↳↳@boodram: you know it 👊
Shane Hollander-Rozanov ✅ @shanehollander 9:15 a.m. [Paris]
Random text messages, exhibit B. I don’t even own anything close to fuchsia pink.

|
↳@hollanovnationHQ: big fan of whatever is going on in Roz’s mind (❤️ by Shane)
|
↳@troybarrett: was Rozanov thinking about colours all day (saw the peach message) and that’s why he suddenly thought of the pink comment?
↳↳@shanehollander: 🤷👇
[QT: lmao shane really said when you’ve been in a relationship with your hot chaotic rival for a decade plus, you just say ok and move on sometimes]
|
↳@boodram: i mean the choice of peach for your new bathroom was great! I just wish you guys didn’t stash lubes and condoms everywhere you know?
↳↳@hdrover: ZANE BOODRAM!
↳↳↳@boodram: what? I wasn’t the one who stashed those everywhere. Also condoms? Not like anyone can get pregnant in their marriage…
↳↳↳↳@shanehollander: It’s for easier clean up.
↳↳↳↳↳@hdrover: SHANE HOLLANDER!
↳↳↳↳↳↳@troybarrett: i just saw Harris stare at our wine fridge 😩
|
↳@shanesfreckles: im sure not for Roz’s lack of trying…
[QT: @boodram: …Not like anyone can get pregnant in their marriage…]
Shane Hollander-Rozanov ✅ @shanehollander 9:21 a.m. [Paris]

Ilya Hollander-Rozanov ✅ @rozy81 7:46 a.m. [Ottawa]
🤨 @shanehollander?

|
↳@2481forever: Rozy said I am NOT the only clingy one in this marriage!
|

|
↳↳@CensCensCens: i cant believe that the reason rozanov may be so good at chirping is because HE READS PSYCHOLOGY BOOKS FOR FUN
↳↳↳@rororozanov: LOOOOOL a bunch of current and retired hockey players just liked your reply
↳↳↳↳@CensCensCens: he said: psychoanalyse the league

↳↳↳@HaydenPike: 🙄
Shane Hollander-Rozanov ✅ @shanehollander 9:52 a.m. [Paris]
