ANOTHER YEAR, ANOTHER NAVKA ARTICLE

Cheaters: Alexander Zhulin and Tatiana Navka continue to create the illusion of their ideal family life.

Translation of an article by Sergey Relicov, a correspondent of Russian language publication Tvoy Den printed on December 22, 2007.

This time they tried to do it on the show, "Ice Period." At the taping of the final episode of the show, unexpected to the spectators, appeared a strange quartet – Averbuch and Lobacheva and Zhulin and Navka. The couples decided to show the contrast between their lives and skated a number, full with feelings of love.

The content of the number was such that Ilja and Irina openly showed to the world that they finished their relations and at the end of the performance they skated away in opposite directions. On the other hand, Tatiana and Alexander were showing that there was no cooling off in their relations and that they were still madly in love with each other. There was even planned a passionate kiss at the end of their performance, but it did not happen, probably due to their tiredness. They just ended the number, silently dropped their hands and also skated in different directions.

Off camera, Alexander and Tatiana rarely cross each other’s path, they meet only at work. The most close and bright relations between them appear when they are in the company of their daughter. Then one could say that they are really happy.

The end of the love story in the Averbuch’s family is known to everyone now. Exactly a year ago they also projected a happy family and no one could even think that they would ever split. But even then their relations were far from ideal and they completely broke up toward the end of this year: at the end of December they were divorced.
