Boots and diamonds: what the wives of Russian footballers look like

It's no secret that for football players the most important support is from loved ones and, of course, beloved women. But not everyone knows what the wives of famous Russian footballers look like, what they do and how they met their faithful.

Ekaterina Gerun, wife of Igor Akinfeev

The girl was introduced to Igor by their mutual friend. Communicating with the football player, Catherine did not know that he was a celebrity. At first, they communicated by correspondence, while the girl lived in Kiev, and then decided to take the relationship to a more serious level.

Katerina works as a model and actress. She starred mainly in commercials and music videos. Now the girl is more busy raising two children - the son of Daniel and the daughter of Evangeline.

Christina Dziuba, wife of Artem Dziuba

Christina is not a public person. Little is known about her, except that she was born in Nizhny Novgorod. The girl rarely gives interviews and does not flaunt her personal life.

At first, Artyom's best friend was courting, but unsuccessfully, and then Christina met her future husband himself. He easily won her heart. Like Catherine, the girl did not know that her lover was a famous athlete. This was revealed only when meeting with the parents, when Christina's father recognized Dziuba. Now the couple is raising a son, Nikita.

Anastastia Kudryashova, wife of Fyodor Kudryashov

Anastasia was born in Siberia, in the city of Bratsk, and immediately after graduation she got a job in a nail salon. Fedor recalls that he courted the girl for a very long time: he had nothing for his soul, Anastasia had to pay for the dates. But still he conquered the girl with courage and perseverance. Then she could not even imagine that her boyfriend would soon become a famous footballer. They went through all the first successes and failures of Fedor on the football field together.

Anastasia tried to open her own fitness centers, but then preferred raising two children to a career: daughter Milana and son Nikita.

Inna Zhirkova, wife of Yuri Zhirkov

Inna was born near Kazan. After school, she was noticed by modeling agencies, and then Inna moved to Kaliningrad, marking the beginning of a modeling career. Then she moved to Moscow, where she was going to continue working, and where a chance meeting in a cafe with Yuri Zhirkov changed her whole life.

The couple quickly got back together, and a year later they celebrated a magnificent wedding. Six months later, the son Dmitry was born, and then the daughter of Milan. For the sake of raising children, Inna left the modeling business. In 2012, a loud scandal erupted on the topic of corruption and venality of beauty contests. Journalist Boris Sobolev interviewed Inna, the winner of "Mrs. Russia-2012", where she could not explain why she received the crown and answer the question whether the Sun revolves around the Earth or the Earth revolves around the Sun.

Natalia Ignashevich, wife of Sergei Ignashevich

Master of Sports in rhythmic gymnastics, TV presenter and journalist, sports commentator … already in her student years, Natalia got a job at NTV-Plus, where she talked about football players. So I met my future husband when I interviewed him for the program "Non-Football Stories".

At first, the girl did not want to start a relationship, believing that Ignashevich's lifestyle was too far from her. But very soon she fell in love. Now Natalia is busy raising two sons, Sergei and Timofey. She also does charity work.

Olga Berezutskaya, wife of Vasily Berezutsky

Olga is a former soloist of the Vintage group and the TV presenter of the You Can Do More! Unlike previous girls, Olga knew from the very beginning that Vasily was a football player. They met through mutual friends, and, according to the girl, it was love at first sight. In 2009, they got married, and in 2010, their son Vladimir was born.

Marina Shishkina, wife of Roman Shishkin

Marina was born in Moscow. I met Roman at the dawn of his career. By that time, she graduated from MGIMO and worked part-time with commercial translations. Their relationship has been tested by distance, and the couple got married in 2009. In 2012, they had a daughter, Margarita, and in 2016, Marianna. Marina is dedicated to raising children and housekeeping, but also owns a small rental business.

Veronica Erokhin, wife of Alexander Erokhin

The couple met in 2006 at the birthday of their friend Veronica. At first, they communicated online, although Veronica did not believe in long-distance relationships. But over time, she still fell in love with a football player and in 2011 accepted a marriage proposal. Veronica plans to open her own beauty salon, but for now she is devoting herself to raising her son Fedor.

Ekaterina Novoseltseva, wife of Ivan Novoseltsev

Ekaterina is a basketball player herself, an attacking defender. Her father is an African who moved to the USSR in 1976. Ivan proposed to her right on the football field, and in 2015 the couple got engaged. In 2019, Catherine announced her pregnancy.

Ekaterina Smolnikova, wife of Igor Smolnikov

The girl began dating Igor while still a student. For a long time they were just friends, but then the friendship grew into love. She was far from sports, but soon began to broadcast on TV about the wives of football players. After the wedding and the birth of her sons Alexander and Luke, she devoted herself to caring for them. She dreams of opening her own beauty salon.
