If a couple of decades ago marriages in which a wife earns more than her husband were considered a misalliance, now few people pay attention to this. Indeed, in the family, the main thing is not the size of the salary, but other, more important qualities. And today we will talk about star pairs in which a woman receives more than a man.
Yelena Isinbayeva
Both she and her husband Nikita Petinov are quite successful athletes. True, Elena was more fortunate. She twice became the Olympic champion and is the owner of 28 world records. Therefore, Isinbayeva’s income significantly exceeds Petinov’s earnings. But this does not bother Elena very much. It is much more important for her that her husband has become a reliable rear for her and a caring father to their two children.
Yana Rudkovskaya
It is difficult to blame producer Dima Bilan for staying in the shadow of her famous husband, Olympic champion Evgeni Plushenko. And it was thanks to Yana’s business acumen that her husband, having completed his sports career, was able to switch to interesting projects. With the help of his wife, Plushenko founded his own school of figure skating. And it was Rudkovskaya who began producing his ice shows.
Lolita Milyavskaya
None of the singer’s entourage believed that her fifth marriage to fitness trainer Dmitry Ivanov would be successful. However, they were wrong and Lolita has been happy for many years with her new husband. Moreover, Milyavskaya is not very worried that her husband continues to work as a fitness instructor and brings a small salary to the house. At that time, the singer herself for touring and speaking at corporate parties gets much more than her chosen one.
Tina Kandelaki
Although the husband of a well-known journalist and TV presenter cannot be called poor, his income is much less than his wife’s salary. Tina, who has many successful projects on her account, does not hide her ability to make money. Fortunately, the difference in income levels does not prevent Kandelaki and Vasily Brovko from enjoying family happiness.
Christina Orbakaite
The income of the singer far exceeds the earnings of her current husband, Mikhail Zemtsov. And this is not surprising, because Christina is a popular and well-paid Russian performer, and her husband, although he has a business in America, does not yet belong to the oligarchs. The press even appeared notes about family quarrels, allegedly erupting on the basis of finance. Whether this is true or not is unknown. But be that as it may, Orbakaite and Zemtsov still live together and look quite happy.
Polina Gagarina
She is considered one of the most successful and highly paid stars of the Russian pop, because her earnings are measured in numbers with several zeros. But Polina’s husband Dmitry Iskhakov, although he is a popular photographer, cannot boast of high income. True, finances never became an occasion for family disagreements and complete harmony and mutual understanding reigns in their pair. Dmitry touchingly takes care of his wife and children and is proud of the success of his chosen one.
Anna Netrebko
Both the opera diva and her current husband Yusif Eyvazov are quite successful singers. True, Netrebko’s earnings are an order of magnitude higher than her husband’s income. But this does not bother the couple at all and a real idyll reigns in their family.
