The Finnish musician captured on camera dancing up close with Finland’s married Prime Minister Sanna Marin has spoken out publicly to deny having an affair with the leader.
Olavi Uusivirta made the announcement on Instagram on Friday, saying the two are just friends and writing in Finnish that “nothing inappropriate has happened.” The Fin, 28, said he wouldn’t comment on the matter any further.
“There has been speculation in the public about the quality of the relationship between me and Prime Minister Sanna Marin,” Uusivirta wrote. “Hand on heart I can just say it like it is: we are friends and nothing inappropriate has happened.”
