"First, he followed me and then left me alone for about a month, and I knew of him from stories in a group of female friends. I told one of them that he had followed me, and she told me he was a great guy. On one occasion, I posted a Pavlova cake I had made, and he then reached out to me. It was a very smooth approach; that's when he won me over," she recounted, as reported by Grand. After that, they started communicating every day and then met in person. "He said he would come to meet me, I agreed, and then everything started. That was in 2021, and within a year, we already had an engagement and a wedding," she stated. She has emphasized on multiple occasions that he is the one responsible for her music career. He persuaded her to apply for Zvezde Granda. After that, he decided to resign from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and become her manager.
