The couple started dating when Olha was in the process of divorcing her first husband, fencer Dmytro Boyko. The couple was unable to maintain their relationship due to constant separation.

"I always knew that there was a Luigi Samele, an Italian, a good athlete, a fencer, and a nice guy. In 2017, I didn't see my husband for a long time. I went to tournaments with a friend, but not to fence, just to watch and have fun. And at some competitions, Luigi and I talked," Harlan told DOROTYE.

Samele started fencing with coach Andrea Terenzio. It was this specialist who helped to reveal the talent of the Italian, who was a multi-medalist at the Olympic Games. He has two bronze and two silver medals from London 2012, Tokyo 2020, and Paris 2024.
