Irina Rodnina's story is pretty interesting...
1:02.
"Two partners, three Olympic golds."
Alexei Ulanov was her first partner and apparently she was in love with him but then he found some other chick. So then after their last skate she moved on and found another partner, Alexander Zaitsev who she then married and won 2 more gold medals with.

They don't really stand out that much to me.
