Early Life
Magali was born the eldest of four girls to Pavlos Kokinos, a two-time Olympic gold medalist, and his wife, Elise Nielsen. She began skating at the age of four, first taught by her father. When her mother Elise died in 1990, Magali and her sisters were raised primarily by their father.

Skating Career
Magali began skating at the age of four, first taught by her father. Upon turning twelve, she switched disciplines from ladies singles, having made mediocre scores at the Junior level. Her first and only skating partner in ice dance was a then thirteen year old Alexander Scott.

The duo were a success from the start, although their career took a nose dive in 2013, following their temporary retirement from the ice to care for their two young children. They went on to take home the bronze medal at the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver and gold in 2014 at the Sochi Olympics.

The couple has two children: Daisy Alexandra (born 2011) and Nicholas James (born 2013), and are expecting their third child in October 2020. They reside in Boston.
