Through thick and thin. Six of the strongest celebrity couples in Ukraine who have survived illness, distance and fame, but stayed together

The history of Ukrainian showbiz knows many cases of couples breaking up. Distance, fame, and abusive relationships caused divorces, and the stars complained about each other in public for a long time. However, it is also wrong to assume that there are no strong marriages among celebrities.

This has been proven by spouses who have not only kept the spark alive over the years of living together, but also carried it through life's troubles. On the occasion of Valentine's Day, we decided to recall the story of such loving couples.

Kateryna Tyshkevych and Valentyn Tomusiak

Amid the unpleasant news of actress Kateryna Tyshkevych's deteriorating health and her long-awaited recovery, Ukrainians had the opportunity to watch the star's husband, actor Valentyn Tomusiak, go through this experience with his beloved. They recently celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary.

According to the actress herself, all these years her husband has been supporting her and helping her recover, and during her sepsis he did not leave her hospital bed.

Timur and Inna Miroshnichenko

Host Tymur Miroshnychenko first met his future wife at a corporate event at the law firm where she worked. Inna was the first Ukrainian woman he ever met, and he never wanted to build a family with anyone else. In 2023, they won the Family of the Year title and continue to touch the network with their strong feelings.

The showman and the lawyer were raising two children, but at the end of July last year, the celebrity couple officially became parents of many children when they took a two-year-old boy named Marcel from an orphanage. They are now preparing to adopt another child.

Hryhorii and Khrystyna Reshetnyky

Khrystyna and Hryhorii Reshetnyky recently celebrated their 13th wedding anniversary. They are now also parents of many children, raising three Cossacks: Ivan, Dmytro and Oleksandr. The couple often shares family photos on social media, talking about raising children and their own secrets of a successful marriage. They are also thinking about adopting a child who lost his or her family as a result of the war.

More than once, the couple has been tested by the scandals they have been involved in. For example, they were accused several times of having ostentatious entertainment in the midst of a full-scale invasion.

Jamala and Bekir Suleymanov

Their atypical love story began at a festival, where the singer noticed the future father of her children. She was the first to ask Bekir out on a date, where they had a good time, but later fate drove the young people apart. They met the next time by chance, and then the man took the initiative.

Jamala admitted that when she found out about her first pregnancy, their relationship became even better. In March 2018, the star gave birth to her first child, and in 2020, the singer became a mother for the second time. Now the couple is expecting their third child, and they are not afraid of the vocalist's busy schedule.

Grigory Baklanov and Anastasia Tsymbalaru

Ukrainian actor Hryhorii Baklanov, known to many for his role as Lavrin in the TV series To Catch a Kaidash, married his colleague before the full-scale war broke out. The invasion knocked them out of their routine and forced them to move in with their parents to avoid spending money on renting their own place. However, temporary inconveniences and financial difficulties did not break the young family.

Alyosha and Taras Topolya

One of the strongest couples in Ukrainian showbiz, as it turned out, also had a hard time with separation. Alyosha lived in the United States for a long time while her husband served as a paramedic in the Kharkiv sector.

After the Antibodies leader's family returned to Ukraine, it became known that the singer was jealous of her chosen one, but eventually the lovers' relationship improved after the reunion.
