Maria Sergejeva (born 28 October 1992 in Tallinn) is an Estonian former competitive pair skater and model. With former partner Ilja Glebov, she is the 2007–10 Estonian national champion and represented Estonia at the 2010 Winter Olympics. Following her competitive retirement in 2010, Sergejeva performed worldwide in theatre and arena shows, including Disney on Ice, Fantasy on Ice, Illusion on Ice, Magic on Ice and The Snow King.
Sergejeva lives in London, England, and has been signed by BMA Models; she noted that at 177 cm (5 ft 10 in) she had been considered "too tall" for pairs skating, but as a model she was sometimes considered too short. She appeared in Fast and Furious spin off movie “Hobbs and Shaw” next to Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham. She worked with Harry Styles on the skating scene in a One Direction music video for Night Changes.
