From femalebodybuildingchannel's Insta post:
"It is with sad voice we report Croatian Star @branka_ifbbpro has officially retired . It was shocking as she just had the season of a lifetime with winning the @mrbigevolution and The break out performance ( along with @ifbb_pro_yeo ) at this Olympia finishing 5 th . With condition and a hard look almost unmatched in the land of female bodybuilding . It also broke our hearts than this amazing athlete never had a sponsor and was achieving this condition while working a full time regular job and a part time job ,and a single mom , at over 45 year old . If this is it , she will be finishing her career on top as the 5 th best female athlete in the world."
