Last night, singer Rita Dakota announced that she was divorcing her husband Vlad Sokolovsky. Today, the artist’s lawyer commented on the division of joint property.
Yesterday the media was shocked by the news that one of the strongest couples Russian show business– Rita Dakota and Vlad Sokolovsky – getting divorced. The singer herself announced her intention to break off the relationship by publishing a voluminous post on her microblog on Instagram. The star admitted that her husband cheated on her throughout the relationship, and she filed for divorce as soon as she found out about it. Now the legal spouses are still at the stage of dividing property. Yesterday it became known that the singer’s interests will be defended by star human rights activist Katya Gordon.
Gordon shared the news on her microblog on Instagram, saying that the truth is entirely on the side of Vlad Sokolovsky’s wife: “ Needless to say, all of Rita’s legal issues are resolved by my Gordon and Sons Team. The truth is 100% on Rita’s side, and I can assure you that if she wrote this, it means her patience is at its limit... Until today, I had one task - to agree on everything behind the scenes and peacefully. But, alas, trusting someone who has lied so much... is quite difficult. Nevertheless... we believe in the best! Rita, hold on! All women in the world know what it’s like to be devoted, and for you!».
Later, Katya also commented on Vlad Sokolovsky’s intention to divide the property. According to the human rights activist, post-Soviet mothers raised their sons to hate women, and now the latter are reaping the fruits of improper upbringing: “ We live in a world where everything means nothing. Unpunished lies, momentary promises forever. I think that morality needs to start being protected at the legal level. The first post-Soviet generation of single mothers brought into the world many boys raised in hatred of women, be careful, she will chop off the apartment! She got knocked up on purpose! - mothers who are sick in heart and spirit whisper in their ears. We are reaping the benefits of this upbringing. A complete generation of 30-40 year old freaks. What to do? Spit. And raise your sons to be generous and responsible. I will raise all my grandchildren and without hesitation I will tell my son, give it to me if there is a separation. Today we are fighting for the toilet, losing the essence. When we die, we will not remember any of our everyday items. We will remember a couple of days of crazy happiness of love... childhood... children... I wish the next generation of girls real Men. I make my contribution by raising my own».
Vlad Sokolovsky has not yet responded to his wife’s public confession - he only limited comments on his microblog on Instagram. It is noteworthy that star friends the couples sided with the singer and supported her, writing encouraging wishes under the confession post. Meanwhile, some fans accused the couple of wanting to promote themselves, but Katya Gordon put an end to all speculation, saying that the divorce is not a PR campaign.
Strong emotions - those that always provide ratings for reality and other shows on television - work great on social networks. Scandalous separation Rita Dakota And Vlad Sokolovsky almost in live Instagram has confirmed this rule.
On August 12, Rita informed her 1.4 million subscribers about her divorce from her husband. The most emotional part of her post was the description of Sokolovsky’s behavior: “It turned out that Vlad cheated on me throughout our entire relationship, cheated on me when we got married, cheated on me when I was pregnant, cheated on me from the first days of Mia’s life, cheated on me right up to the moment when I found out about this. These were dozens of “girls”, many of them I know personally, many of them were my “friends” who entered my house. Almost all of our mutual friends who met me from the maternity hospital knew about this and covered for him; many of them had his infidelities right at home, with their consent. Some members of his family, including his father, also knew. I understand that this sounds like a horror movie script, it sounds incredible, and I would never have believed it myself if I didn’t have ironclad evidence, but, alas, this is bitter and terrible truth. My world will never be the same, but I have to get through this for my daughter.”
We will not be mistaken if we say that this recognition came as a shock to everyone. Stars reached out to Dakota’s Instagram with sympathetic and condemning comments about Sokolovsky. Many posts began with the words “Rita, we don’t know each other, but...” It quickly became clear that the deceived wife took upon herself legal support Katya Gordon(she has her own law office). Even Vlad’s aunt Tatyana Nesterova joined the dialogue, who registered on Instagram specifically for this: “Today, an extremely difficult and ugly situation has occurred in our family. A situation that is incredibly difficult for all of us to survive, a situation that is impossible to understand and accept. Now the entire network is replete with the fact that our children are getting divorced, that Vlad turned out to be (I quote) a “dog” (thank God, at least not gay, which our entire stage is already full of). And I can’t understand and accept this hype.” Tatyana said that in no case and considers his act disgusting. But she asked Dakota’s blog subscribers to take into account that they only know one of two truths.
However, except for the aunt, no one else from Sokolovsky’s relatives spoke out. The “hero of the occasion” himself remains silent on this topic. In his account since the breakup, only video of a walk with my daughter Mia.
It’s interesting that before this, the spouses’ blogs were a pure, unadulterated example of glamor: photos from vacations, cool parties, advertising posts and cute joint selfies. True, the texts that Rita and Vlad wrote under the glossy pictures were somewhat different. You won’t find anything in Sokolovsky that is in any way different from standard set to demonstrate a successful “dolce life”. Rita periodically surprised her subscribers with sincere and sharp posts.
For example, this is what she said about her father: “I grew up in a family with the worst father in the universe. Just try to imagine a list of all the most terrible qualities of an anti-dad, for example, from heroin to prison, from family violence to complete indifference in a child’s life (I don’t know which is worse). And I always dreamed that the father of my child would be a handsome, kind, caring prince, I just prayed about it. And now I have grown up, I have a husband and a daughter, and I suddenly find myself at the very point where my childhood dreams became a reality. I don’t know what I did to deserve this, but Vlad is not only the most best dad for Mia, but also for the FIRST TIME IN YOUR LIFE - a real man for me, when I feel small, “in the arms” of a big, reliable man, I feel that same man’s shoulder, I trust, I confide, I rely, I feel weak, which has never happened in my life before. This is such happiness, girls!”
And so, it turns out that, perhaps, at the moment when Dakota was writing this post, her husband was having fun with his next passion in someone else’s bed.
What awaits us next, what continuation will this story have? The division of property is unlikely to be loud: Dakota has already softened the impression of the first post by publishing an appeal to subscribers with the following words: “My pain will one day subside and only gratitude will remain for growth, for experience, for everything bright that I had for him, and finally, for the most main value our union - for our daughter."
Of course, Vlad's image will suffer some reputational losses. But not at all the kind that kill the careers of Western stars - in our country, treason, traditionally, is not considered something serious (if it is not treason). Well, went to the left, who is not without sin? The creators of the show “The Bachelor” are already quite rubbing their hands: another great candidate has appeared on the horizon.
Dakota suffered the most in this story. What was for Rita real life, real feelings, for Sokolovsky it turned out to be just a game, an imitation, a glossy picture necessary for image and business. It is strange that Vlad chose a sincere girl who believes in marriage and family as his partner for this game.
), her husband cheated on her, and allegedly did this from the first day of the relationship.
But let’s return to where it all began, and we suggest remembering how the love story of Sokolovsky and Dakota developed.
Colleagues
Vlad and Rita met back in 2007. 17-year-old Gerasimovich (that’s the actual name of the singer) then came from Minsk to the Moscow casting of the next season of “Star Factory” simply because she wanted to present CDs with her music famous producers. Belarusian girl I didn’t even dream of becoming one of the “manufacturers”. However, in the end, she was not only accepted for the project - she even became a finalist.
16-year-old Vlad also ended up among the finalists. At the seventh “Factory”, he and Dmitry Bikbaev created the duet “BiS”, which led young people to success.
The young people met at the Star Factory. In the photo, Vlad is on the far right, Rita is a girl in plaid trousers, standing in the center
Vlad and Rita were at the Star Factory good friends and even called each other “brother” and “sister”. But after the project, the paths diverged.
Sokolovsky’s group “BiS” won first places in the charts of music channels and radio stations; only the lazy did not hear their song “Katya, take the phone”. Blue-eyed and blond-haired Vlad found an army of loving fans and became a recognizable hero of domestic show business.
Dakota, on the contrary, disappeared from the screens and created an independent rock band Monroe. The singer does not hide the reasons for leaving show business: “When I realized that this is a cruel, dishonest, “show-off” world, in which there is no place for music, and there is only continuous gossip and deception, I decided to leave the stage as an artist.”
The young people became friends on the project, but after graduating from the “Factory” they rarely communicated
Dakota chose her image to match the music - quite aggressive. Dreadlocks, tattoos, bright makeup - the girl was even called Russian. And Vlad at this time performed romantic ballads and wore wavy hair to his shoulders. “The main thing is not our shell and musical preferences, but what is inside us. Inside, we are absolutely identical,” Rita later admits.
At that moment, however, it seemed as if Vlad and Rita had less and less in common: they did not participate in joint projects and only occasionally crossed paths at social parties, only having time to say hello and inquire about each other’s affairs.
Couple of old friends
It seemed that the musicians would forever remain only old acquaintances and colleagues. Indeed: what could a cute boy and a brave rock singer have in common? In addition, Dakota is older than Vlad - even if the age difference is small, most girls choose men older than themselves (and, as a result, more experienced) as partners.
Sokolovsky's private life was always in plain sight. The performer's fans and journalists followed with passion the changes on his personal front. Who wasn’t counted among Vlad’s chosen ones! MGIMO student Dasha, DJ Karina, designer and even singer Nyusha. True, Vlad himself told practically nothing to the press about personal life. The singer is used to sharing such things only with his parents and close friends.
As a result, Vlad managed to hide his relationship with Dakota for almost six months: he was afraid that they would jinx him! By the time the novel finally became public, Vlad’s chosen one was already familiar with his family. The singer spoke frankly about his feelings:
I'm incredibly happy - and that's the most important thing. My heart... I don't like the word "busy." It's happy!
How did it all happen? Sokolovsky met old girlfriend Ritu at the party. As Dakota recalls, she was very surprised when she saw her friend after a long separation: “At first I didn’t recognize Vlad - for the first time in my life I saw him in a suit and with short hair" By that time, Vlad had really noticeably matured: he got rid of his wavy locks, grew stubble and began wearing classic jackets and jackets.
Dakota has changed too better side. According to the singer, Sokolovsky greeted her at that party with the words: “Come on, Dakota, where are your sneakers and dreadlocks?” After that meeting, the couple never separated.
Soul to soul
From the very beginning, Vlad and Dakota's relationship was natural. And it’s true: what should people who have known each other for eight years and lived in the same walls during the “Star Factory” project hide from each other? In an interview, Rita admitted:
There was no opportunity to “show off.” Because you remember very well how you woke up at 4 in the morning on the same tour bus: both swollen, hungry, sleep-deprived, with unwashed heads.
The couple's romance developed extremely quickly: Rita moved in with Vlad, the couple began to be regularly caught kissing at various events, and soon they completely amazed fans with the news of their upcoming wedding.
Vlad proposed marriage to his beloved while on vacation in Bali
23-year-old Sokolovsky during a holiday in Bali. In the midst of a joint vacation, the couple had a straight Talk: Vlad spent a long time telling Dakota how much he loves her and how important she is to him. As a result, Sokolovsky blurted out: “Be my wife!”
Gangster party
The bride and groom decided not only to legalize their relationship in the registry office, but also to get married in church. The newlyweds set a date for the celebration - June 3, 2015. However, shortly before the wedding, the couple announced that they were postponing the celebration to the 8th. Gossips they immediately started talking about changing the wedding day - Bad sign. The newlyweds themselves said that they had to do this because of the MUZ-TV award, where most of the invited guests went.
The celebration turned out to be friendly and magnificent - to the envy of ill-wishers. Dakota and Vlad invited close friends and colleagues: Alexander Revva, Yulia Kovalchuk, Alexander Panayotov, Elka and many others (about 150 people were present in total). Instead of the traditional celebration with rose petals and limousines, there is a gangster party in the spirit of the film “Once Upon a Time in America,” Vlad and Rita’s favorite picture.
The theme of the wedding was a gangster party in the spirit of the film “Once Upon a Time in America,” Vlad and Rita’s favorite film
Guests arrived in vintage cars. The holiday accessories were playing cards, revolvers and aromatic cigars. Vlad was wearing a three-piece suit and a white shirt. Dakota chose a white lace dress created by a Belarusian designer. The venue of the celebration was the Royal Bar on the shore of the Khimki reservoir. The newlyweds and guests walked until the morning, not forgetting to post photos of the party on Instagram.
There were about 150 guests at the celebration who came to congratulate Sokolovsky and Dakota on the birth of their family
By the way, the couple prepared extremely carefully for the wedding. “We even chose the caviar for a very long time,” said Sokolovsky. According to Dakota, the pre-wedding efforts only strengthened the relationship: the lovers took great pleasure in resolving issues related to organizing the celebration.
Rita and Vlad managed to collaborate well in their work. Dakota, a singer and composer, wrote songs that Sokolovsky performed. Vlad helped Rita with producing her tracks.
Mia
In October 2017, the couple had their first child, a daughter, whom the artists named Mia. The performers hid for quite a long time the fact that they were expecting a child, but when she was five months pregnant.
The couple seemed perfect, even Dakota
