Anna Sedokova is preparing for the wedding: the singer received a marriage proposal from her boyfriend, basketball player Janis Timma. For the sake of the 37-year-old ex-VIA Gra, the 28-year-old athlete left his wife and small child. The singer told how she and Timma became close and how she managed to take him away from the family. Sedokova gave a frank interview to Svetlana Bondarchuk in her YouTube show “Sveta Around the World”.
Anna admits that she did not want an affair with Janis and at first did not welcome his attention. They met by chance, and she liked the young Baltic at first sight. But she didn't want to start a new relationship.
“I didn’t let him in, but then we started communicating on the Internet. And this correspondence brought us closer,” Anna admitted. — I remember how Janis invited me to the cinema. But I’m proud, I didn’t answer yes or no. He didn’t know until the very end whether I would come or not. I didn’t even know if I’d come. As a result, when we watched the first film, we somehow immediately became closer. Then we decided to watch another movie. After that we never parted.
At that time, the athlete had been married to his wife Sana for three years, and their son Christian was one year old. But this did not stop him and Anna from starting a romantic relationship. According to Janis, he immediately felt a kindred spirit in the singer.
“It happens that you start communicating with a person and immediately realize that you have known him all your life. It was like that with Anya. We immediately found a common language,” said Timma.
Soon the basketball player told his wife about his new love. And a little later, the press became aware of his affair with Sedokova. A public scandal broke out, but it did not stop the lovers from moving in together and living a new life. By the way, on social networks the athlete assured that he had not lived with his wife for six months. His wife was very offended by this, and she published an angry post on Instagram.
“I just found out from my husband that we separated six months ago. Is it true? I didn't know this, but I know that six months ago you started cheating on me. And in the summer you said that you wanted to save our marriage. Interesting news. And caring in your understanding means blocking your wife’s bank cards so that she doesn’t have money, and telling her that she and the most important person for you - her son - need to move out of our apartment and live on the street, or sign divorce papers so that you could be a free man for his new lady, who claims that she does not date married people. Why are you doing it? Is this whore with three kids from three different men worth it? Did you know that now you are not the only one with her? — Sana Timma turned to her husband using social networks.
Anna Sedokova and Janis Timma got engaged at the end of July while vacationing in Miami. Janis presented Anya with a luxurious ring with diamonds and a bouquet of roses. The singer, without hesitation, said “yes.” The couple lounges on snow-white beaches, sunbathes in the summer sun and posts vacation photos on Instagram. In Miami, the future spouses stayed in an expensive hotel, but now Anna can afford it. Janis is a wealthy groom: according to some reports, he earns about a million dollars a year. Timma plays for the Khimki team, with which he signed a contract in 2020.
Sedokova flew to America to celebrate her daughter’s birthday. Anna has not seen her youngest daughter Monika for almost six months: the girl lives in Los Angeles with her father, Ukrainian businessman Maxim Chernyavsky. Due to the coronavirus, the borders were closed and the singer could not come to the United States. But now she still found the opportunity to fly to the States and meet Monica. At the end of July, the girl turned 9 years old, and the artist could not miss her holiday.
Let us remember that Anna Sedokova is a mother of three children. The singer gave birth to her youngest child, son Hector, in April 2020. The baby’s father was businessman Artem Komarov (son of billionaire Andrei Komarov), who heads his own construction business. Immediately after the birth of the baby, the couple separated. The singer gave birth to her eldest daughter Alina (she is 15 years old) from football player Valentin Belkevich. The athlete died suddenly in 2014 after a blood clot broke loose.
The artist's youngest daughter lives in Los Angeles by court order. Sedokova gave birth to Monica in America, and the girl has American citizenship. After breaking up with Chernyavsky, Sedokova and her ex-husband fought long legal battles for their daughter. Since the couple lived in the United States for several years, the custody case was handled by the Los Angeles court. Maxim firmly decided to deprive his ex-wife of parental rights, because he was afraid that Anna would take Monica to Russia. For a long time, Sedokova could see her daughter only in the presence of an employee of the guardianship authorities and only in America. Only after a few months of legal battle, Anna received the right to see her daughter without strangers and in any country in the world outside of Russia.
Anna Sedokova came out with her new boyfriend

The relationship between the 36-year-old ex-soloist of the VIA Gra group and the 27-year-old basketball player has clearly moved to a new level. Anna recently introduced Yanis to her children, and now she has begun to take him out into the world. For the first time as a couple, lovers appeared at the MUZ TV New Year's party. The singer and basketball player held each other's hands tightly and exchanged tender glances in public. Previously, they only attended Timma's sporting events.
Anna admits that she is truly happy with her young man. “I never believed it before. I read these sugary texts, got angry, didn’t trust, and then one day - everything changed. I'm trying to remember the events... How did everything develop? What brought me to you? There must be some kind of formula for success? After all, they teach people something in all the endless trainings, but I don’t understand. Maybe there is some special formula for those who do everything wrong? Thank you!" — the singer addressed Yanis on the Internet.
Lovers enjoying their relationship
By the way, for the evening out, the artist chose a very relaxed look, appearing in a short top with a deep neckline and a skirt with a cutout that favorably emphasized her slimness. Fans note that the boyfriend rekindled the same passion in the artist. “What a bomb she is!”; “Chic as always,” they admire.
However, not all fans are happy for their idol. Many condemn her for the breakup of the family, because, as it turned out at the beginning of their romance, Timma is married and raising a son. His legal fiancee told reporters about this. Sana Timma burst into a stream of abuse against Sedokova. “Is this slut with three children from three different men worth it? Do you know that at the moment you are not her only man? I loved you with all my heart, gave you a child, forgave you for all the bad things you did, and this is what I deserve? You’ve gone too far, not respecting either me or your son,” Janis’s wife was indignant.
The singer does not pay attention to criticism, noting that their feelings are devoid of pretense. “I pull myself away all the time when I film us in stories, because happiness loves silence, and what people will say... But I feel that even if I make the biggest mistake, he will still be there,” she is sure. - Support me and love what I do as passionately as I do. And I fell in love with basketball. This is probably one of the formulas for happiness in a couple: respect and love each other’s professions and affairs.”

Anna Sedokova "rode" around VIA Gre
Singer Anna Sedokova recently gave an online conference in her native Ukraine, where she answered questions from her fans. The singer of the hit “Drama” arrived in a great mood, laughed a lot, joked and talked about her daughter Alina, showing reporters her new photographs. Even before the start of the conference, Anna assumed that today she would face many questions about the VIA Gra group, and she was not mistaken. “I’m okay with this. I even tell everyone with pride: “I graduated from a university called VIA Gra,” Anna shared. Despite the fact that Anna left the group at the end of 2003, now the issue of the singer’s relationship with former colleagues and producers is very relevant, because until recently she participated in the show of the Ukrainian channel “1+1” “Star+Star”, competing with “VIA Groi”, now consisting of Albina Dzhamabaeva, Eva Bushmina and Nadezhda Granovskaya. And soon in Kyiv there will be an anniversary concert of “VIA Gra” with former and current members of the female trio, but Anna has not yet been invited there. Question: “Good afternoon. Don’t you think that your imminent departure from the “Star+Star” project was kindly “assisted” by the producers of the VIA Gra group? My opinion is that you were simply condemned when the same Semenovich or VIA Gra numbers were much worse, without an idea and were performed absolutely incompetently.” Anna: Thank you for your kind words. It seems to me that we were sued on this project. I realized that something was wrong after performing the song “The Earth is Empty Without You,” where my partner Viktor Loginov sang phenomenally, and I still receive hundreds of reviews saying that this number was wonderful. But the judges gave us very low scores. Laima (Vaikule - editor's note) and Verka (Serduchka - editor's note) were already against us and, I think, in the future it would be very difficult for us, no matter what we sang. But there is no doubt about the involvement of the group’s producers in this. What are you talking about, this is a show, this is a project. The channel management called us and said that they regretted our departure. Although after we left the project, they sent me a very funny photo. In it, Victor and I are standing on stage, while they announce that the couple “Anna Sedokova - Viktor Loginov” is leaving. And at the same time, happy Eva is shown in the background (Bushmina, the current soloist of the group “VIA Gra”, who replaced Tatyana Kotova - editor’s note), who, at the moment of announcing our names as “departed”, experienced a storm of delight on stage (laughs - editor's note). Anna further shared with journalists that her number for the song “Drama” is often compared with the number of another “ex-VIA Gra” Svetlana Loboda, with whom she participated in Eurovision 2009 from Ukraine, taking 12th place. “She was with a wheel, I was without a wheel, but we still drew some parallels,” Anna laughs, “We both bring a show to people. I am not afraid of this word, I am fixated on costumes, on choreography, and I want my performance to be truly “explosive”. “Next is a question from Vera. I don’t know if it’s Brezhnev or not…” the journalist began. “Verochka! Oh, my girl, you woke up at 10 in the morning, asking a question!” - Anya added with a great deal of irony. “Anya, are you now communicating with your former colleague Tanya Naynik (in 2002 - lead singer of the group “VIA Gra” - editor’s note)? You were friends. I heard that you are communicating with Meseda (Bagautdinova, ex-soloist of the group “VIA Gra” - editor’s note) and Tanya Kotova (ex-soloist of “VIA Gra” - editor’s note). How did you meet? Did your dislike for one of the current “unfortunate soloists” of the so-called “VIA Gra” bring you together?” — the journalist continued to read the question. “Yes, I communicate with Tanya Nainik, not so long ago I had a big presentation of my own show in Moscow, Tanya was supposed to come, but she has a sore throat. We still talk on the phone periodically. I once corresponded with Meseda and saw Tanya. Of course, we are not friends, but I really like Tanya Kotova. Once we flew with her on the same plane, and she seemed to me to be a very pleasant person, and in our time this is very important.” The next question regarding the VIA Gra group was asked to the friendly laughter of everyone in the Komsomolskaya Pravda office. Ukraine". “Anna, maybe you’ll finally reveal the secret of how old your former colleagues Vera Brezhneva and Nadezhda Meikher really are?”, and, finishing reading the last words, the journalist who asked Anna the question could not restrain himself and applauded the author. Having laughed it off, Sedokova replied: “In fact, we are the same age. Only the girls were born at the beginning of the year, and I was born in December. Perhaps the success of this lineup is due to the fact that we were the same age and looked “even,” added Anna. Thus, Sedokova inadvertently offended the current composition of the VIA Gra group. Let us remind you that in today's lineup the age difference between the oldest and youngest members of the group is 10 years. The question followed about Anna’s attitude towards this youngest member of the group, Eva Bushmina. “I don’t really like her sharp remarks about me and her strange attitude towards me. Apparently she has some reasons of her own for this,” Sedokova shrugs. – “At the same show “Star + Star” the girls decided not to even say hello to me. Artists have an unspoken rule: no matter what, smile and compliment your colleague, even if it’s through force. For example, we got along well with Dasha Astafieva and Nastya Kamenskikh, on the same show, with whom we had not communicated before. I think the “bigger” a person is, the more he has achieved, the less “problems” he has about this,” Sedokova reasoned about the behavior of the 21-year-old newly minted VIA Gra. This was followed by a question: “Anna, why didn’t you take part in the benefit performance of the VIA Gra group in the Let Them Talk program? “I didn’t really like this idea. - Sedokova answered - 10 participants in one studio, each wants to show that she is the best and so on. In addition, I decided not to take part in such programs about VIA Gre anymore after one film about the tenth anniversary of the group. They promised me that everything would be beautiful and extremely truthful, but in fact in the film my words were simply distorted. That’s why I refused to come to the set of “Let Them Talk.” “Anechka, are you aware that the father of Albina Dzhamabaeva’s child is Valery Meladze, and most likely it was this fact that prevented your return to the group when you still wanted it?” - followed a question from readers. “I really wanted to return to the group then,” Anna shared, “Back then there were great opportunities in it. I don’t know if the reason was who was hired to take my place, but I was no longer expected there. This is probably how it should have been. The other day we had a very nice conversation with Dima Kostyuk about my participation in the band’s anniversary concert. He said that he would be glad to see me there, agreed with me that it was a great time and suggested that if everything had turned out differently, now we would all be living in Los Angeles and enjoying life,” Anna laughs. “This thought just haunts me. The thought that things could have been different if we had picked up where we left off. I left at the very peak of the group’s popularity, then the whole world was before us. And in the literal sense. Preparations for our tour around the world were in full swing, we had already held its presentation in Japan... It is clear that now the VIA Gra group has a different scale and does not set such goals. But perhaps everything turned out as it should. Now I’m a solo artist, my own boss and producer, and I can decide whether I should go perform in Zhitomir tomorrow or not,” Anya smiled. Anna also said that her album will be released in six months and about 20 songs are already ready for it. She also spoke about her upcoming concerts in major cities of Ukraine and Russia, shared that filming of one large project begins in November, in which she is taking part, and also said that she is thinking about re-issuing her book “The Art of Seduction” in a different format at a more reasonable price. “This book is interesting for girls and it sells very well, but the problem is that you can’t make money from books, and I would like as many women as possible to know about it. Now I’m also thinking about publishing it in parts in some magazine, but I need to settle all this with the publishing house.”
