Cheryl Bernard - Personal Life

Personal Life

Aside from curling, Bernard also co-wrote Between the Sheets: Creating Curling Champions in 2005, a book about the mental aspects of curling, with journalist Guy Scholz. After taking home a silver medal in her home country at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, BC, Cheryl teamed up with Guy once again to co-publish an updated version of the book titled Between the Sheets: The Silver Lining through Canadian book publisher Polished Publishing Group (PPG), copyright 2011.

Bernard lives with her husband, curler Terry Meek, and stepson Connor Meek in Calgary, Alberta.

Her physical appearance has also garnered lots of attention. Popular ESPN columnist Bill Simmons has referred to Bernard as the "Canadian Curlgar," a portmanteau of "cougar" and curler, because he finds her attractive. "I've said it a million times," Simmons tweeted on Feb. 20. "Any time Canada and Denmark battle in women's curling, you know you're in for a special night."

Famous quotes related to personal life:

    The dialectic between change and continuity is a painful but deeply instructive one, in personal life as in the life of a people. To ‘see the light’ too often has meant rejecting the treasures found in darkness.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
