The secret wedding ceremony of Anton Sikharulidze and the daughter of senator-businessman Leonid Lebedev took place in Barcelona. The bride's witness was Roman Abramovich's friend, Daria Zhukova. As Argumenty Nedeli reported, the wedding was planned back in June. Before Sikharulidze, Yana was credited with numerous affairs with other members of the elite: the heir of oligarch Mark Garber, Alexei, as well as the son of billionaire Boris Rotenberg, Roman. By the way, Alexey Garber was present at the wedding. The bride's witness was her friend Daria Zhukova, the wife of Roman Abramovich. And the groom’s friend and fellow countryman Evgeniy Plushenko celebrated Kolya Baskov’s birthday the day before, overslept and missed the plane. By the way, Forbes magazine estimates the fortune of the bride's father at 2.2 billion dollars, and puts his name in the list of rich people in 53rd place. The wedding took place in a luxurious Spanish-style castle. There was a great variety of snacks, and an orchestra played for the newlyweds.

Marriage proposal: how was it?

The skater proposed to his beloved on the eve of her birthday - June 16, 2011. What a gift! Moreover, Anton distinguished himself with extraordinary originality. He filled numerous boxes of different sizes with his most tender wishes and confessions, and then tied everything up with large bows.

And on the main box with a ring inside there was a special note: please call the number written on it. Even a dead phone and general confusion with numerous gifts did not prevent Yana from answering “Yes!” to such a tempting offer from your loved one.

The happy bride and groom got married at the beginning of August in one of the Moscow registry offices.


Guests at Yana and Anton's wedding

Exclusive with Anton Sikharulidze and Yana Lebedeva

On the summer veranda of the cafe where we meet, despite the hot afternoon, almost all the tables are occupied. Behind one of them is Anton and Yana, almost unrecognizable: he is wearing dark glasses, a funny gray T-shirt with a yellow duck and checkered shorts, she is wearing a light silk blouse, jeans, no makeup at all, with her hair pulled up. At first glance, they are very different: tall, broad-shouldered Anton and gentle, petite Yana, but as soon as they begin to communicate, exchanging touching “baby” and “ma-a-a-s”, you immediately understand that the general type is a secondary matter. Internal similarity and harmony are much more important. And Anton and Yana seem to have achieved it.

First of all, let me congratulate you on your upcoming wedding. How did you decide to take such a step? Was it a deliberate decision or did it all happen spontaneously? Anton: Of course, we talked about the future many times. And now we have come close to the preparatory stage, we are enthusiastically planning our wedding, we want to make a bright, memorable - in a word, ideal - holiday for ourselves, our family and friends. Yana: At first we wanted to have a modest dinner with a small number of guests, but as a result the list grew, and now it’s such a grandiose story. ( Laughs

.) We decided where we would celebrate - far from Moscow. And of course, they are sewing a dress for me - Igor Chapurin, my dear friend, is already working hard.

Anton, how did you propose? Yana: By the way, this was a surprise for me. Anton: I proposed to Yana on the eve of her birthday. Of course, I wanted to give her a ring directly on her birthday... Yana: And steal the holiday from me! Anton: But then we would spend our entire lives celebrating two important events on one day. And so I decided not to encroach on Yanina’s personal holiday. I thought for a long time about how to propose: on the one hand, just giving a ring and saying good words seemed banal to me, on the other hand, Yana had a premonition of what would happen, and therefore any deviation from the usual course of things would arouse suspicion. ( Smiles

.) Well, roughly speaking, I come on Friday evening and say: put on a dress, do your hair and let's go to Sparrow Hills!
Why suddenly, why? I wanted to create an atmosphere of mystery. And so I found a bunch of boxes of different sizes: from the largest to the smallest. I inserted them one into the other, put a postcard in each, where I described the feelings that I have for my loved one, tied the boxes with bows... In general, all this took me half a day. In the smallest box, of course, there was a ring and a card with the inscription: “Stop. Do not open. Call such and such a number.” I expected that Yana would dial this number, come out to me, and I, looking my beloved in the eyes, would ask her to become my wife. I gave the driver the task of bringing Yana the box... Yana: I tortured the driver for a long time about who sent it. You see, when on the eve of your birthday they send you a huge, literally human-sized box, you immediately think that it is a vase or some other regular gift. But the driver did not give up. Then, when I got to the small box, it turned out that my phone was dead and I couldn’t call the number that was written in the postcard! In general, there was a slight panic, but it was all very nice nonetheless. Anton: Then she came to me and then I said everything I thought about this. ( Smiles
.) And he put a ring on her finger.

How long have you been together? Anton: You know, we’ve already lost count. Once we tried to establish a day from which to start counting, but we never determined it. And now we answer like this: seven to eight months.

Under what circumstances did you meet? Anton: Among friends, by chance, as often happens.

Remember your first impression? What did you think when you first saw Yana? Anton: I remember every detail, even what she was wearing, what she said... Yana: I got a tattoo that day and came with my arm wrapped - that’s probably why I remembered it. ( Laughs

.) (Yana has Yanski tattooed on her left wrist - that’s what her American friends call her. -
Note OK!
.)
Anton: I remember all my feelings, but that day we didn’t even exchange phone numbers. During our next meeting, I, of course, was not at a loss and asked for her number. Yana: In fact, that meeting might not have happened.
I missed the plane to New York and was delayed in Moscow for a day. I went out to dinner with friends and met Anton again. Did you immediately realize that this would be something more than just an acquaintance? Yana: I had practically no time to analyze the circumstances - everything happened very quickly. But there is a sixth sense, and it told me that everything that was happening was for a reason.

Did you know anything about Anton, his figure skating career before you met? Yana: To be honest, nothing at all. ( Laughs

.) I swear!
But we met, and I began to recognize him, and then Anton opened up to me from a new side. Over time, I just realized that this is my man, I fell in love and now I love him madly. ( Anton breaks into a smile like the Cheshire Cat and kisses Yana on the cheek
.) I never pictured a prince on a white horse, but Anton is my ideal in all respects. Starting with the way he takes care of me, and ending with the way he looks at life, how he thinks. And this is probably my greatest pride - that a person like him loved me.

How does Anton look at life and how does he think? Yana: He does not try to change me, remake me, does not seek to suppress my, perhaps too emancipated, self. On the contrary, he gives advice on work. I don't feel disadvantaged. Anton: I recently read the following expression from my beloved Kant: “Education is the improvement of nature.” So, in Yana nature itself is perfect, so improving it makes no sense. It’s easier for me to look at my wife, enjoy her, and not come up with schemes on how to remake her. Yana: And one more thing. It seems to me that when you fall in love, a lot changes in your head. You begin to enjoy doing good to another person. We are now furnishing the house, and the things that always bothered me the least are now of keen interest. I am pleased to create coziness in our home with Anton, to make our life more comfortable and beautiful. Consciousness is changing. You suddenly realize that you are no longer alone.

Do you share each other's interests? Yana, do you, say, skate? Anton: I just don’t skate anymore! Yana: ( Laughs

.) I haven't actually skated since I was a kid.

What about fashion? For Yana this is a profession, but for you, Anton? First of all, I am glad that Yana has an interest in life that is so strong that it has grown into a profession. I am pleased that Yana is developing and doing what she loves.

But do you choose your own wardrobe? Anton: We went shopping together several times. They chose things for me. For example, we chose these... Yana: Shorts. ( Laughs

.)
Anton: I wanted to say sneakers! Of course, I listen to Yana’s advice, especially since she has good taste. But sometimes you have to make compromises. ( Smiles
.)

Are compromises necessary when it comes to lifestyle? Athletes usually live in spartan conditions, journalists lead a bohemian lifestyle... Or is it completely different? Yana: No, you shouldn’t think in stereotypes. We are young people, we live an active life, we spend a lot of time at home with our parents, but we also love to go out with friends and travel. Anton: And when we are separated, we send each other delicious text messages. ( Smiles

.)
Yana: Yes, and photographs!

Wow!

Yana Lebedeva's dress was in the best traditions of star weddings - from Vera Wang, costing $70 thousand. However, for the unofficial part of the holiday, Yana still changed into an outfit made especially for her by designer Igor Chapurin.
