In her initial post and interviews, Sharypova had revealed that Zverev's abuse towards her had reached its peak during the 2019 US Open when he tried to choke her and smothered her with a pillow before she ran away. However, Olga has now said that this was not the end of the relationship. Olga said she was convinced by friends and family that she could mend things with Zverev and proceeded to do so. But by then, she was deeply depressed. A usually cheerful and positive person, she was "emotionally dying" and "didn’t understand everything in [her] life." "I understand that I can’t live like this anymore, but I knew he wouldn’t let me go," Sharypova said in the interview.

She claims she injected herself with a large dose of insulin from Zverev's room and was saved by tour officials who found her locked in the bathroom. In the article, she says that there is a lot more left to her story, which ends during the Shanghai Masters, but that she will tell it all later. Talking about herself now, Sharypova is in a much better place after leaving Zverev. “Thank God I’m alive and thank God I’m happy now and thank God it’s done, and now I’m far away from it" she added. She has said that she is not thinking of pursuing any legal options and is only telling her story so others in the same situation feel less alone.
