A white dress, wedding rings, tears of joy, and promises to love each other for life. It all looks incredibly romantic, especially when the wedding costs tens of thousands of dollars. However, in Ukrainian show business some love stories end faster than guests can scroll through the wedding photos.
Some couldn’t handle domestic life, some were undone by jealousy, and others simply realized they’d chosen the wrong person. 24 The Channel has already told about star couples who have been together for over 20 years, and now it has compiled stories of Ukrainian celebrities whose marriages didn’t even last a year.
Alina Grosu and Oleksandr Komkov – about 6 months

In June 2019, Alina Grosu held a lavish wedding with businessman Oleksandr Komkov in Italy. The celebration at an ancient villa in Verona cost the singer’s parents about 100 thousand euros. It seemed a fairytale life was guaranteed, but romance ended after just six months.
According to the artist, in December her husband unexpectedly suggested they live separately. Later Grosu admitted that financial misunderstandings arose in the relationship because she earned more than her partner.
The singer spoke publicly about the breakup only in September 2020. It turns out a wedding that cost 100 thousand euros doesn’t even guarantee a first anniversary.
Oleksandr Kryvoshapko and Tetyana Denysova – 6 months

The love story of "X-Factor" contestant Oleksandr Kryvoshapko and choreographer Tetyana Denysova once resembled a real soap opera.
The couple met on the talent show and in May 2011 they got married. Despite a 12-year age difference, they hoped to build a solid family. However, the marriage fell apart after six months.
Their relationship was marked by arguments and jealousy. Later Kryvoshapko openly discussed conflicts with his ex-wife. And although the singer is used to dramatic performances on stage, family drama proved far more difficult.
Nataliya Mohylevska and Dmytro Chalyi – 11 months

In 2004 Nataliya Mohylevska married businessman Dmytro Chalyi. A lavish wedding, star guests, and a romantic trip to Paris — it seemed the singer had finally found her happiness.
But the fairy tale ended literally just short of the first anniversary. The couple divorced after 11 months of marriage.
Later Mohylevska explained that the reason was differing life views and a lack of mutual understanding. According to the artist, during a difficult period she didn’t feel enough support from her husband.
Volodymyr Borysenko and Lavika – several months

Former "Star Factory" participant Volodymyr Borysenko and singer Lavika, whose real name is Liubov Yunak, married in 2018.
The lovers tried to keep the wedding quiet, but in October journalists found out about the marriage. And here’s the catch: while fans were congratulating the newlyweds, their relationship was already drawing to a close.
As later became known, on 30 October 2018 the couple filed for divorce. The artists publicly announced it only in March 2019.

In July 2021 the star of the series "Catch Kaidash" Taras Tsymbalyuk married makeup artist Tina Antonenko. The romantic wedding took place in the Carpathians, and photos of the happy couple moved fans.
However, in June 2022 the couple announced their split. They had been together for about four years, but the official marriage lasted only 11 months.
Later the actor explained that he and Tina tried to avoid conflicts, silenced problems, and gradually realized how different their views on life were.

Few remember that before marrying plastic surgeon Edgar Kaminsky, the star of the group "NeAngely" had already been married.
In June 2012 Slava married Kyiv businessman Yevhen. However, about a year later the couple divorced.
Later the artist admitted that her feelings for the man had faded. According to the singer, she didn’t want to deceive Yevhen, so she decided to end the relationship.

In September 2010 restaurateur and future TV host Mykola Tyshchenko married the winner of the "Miss Ukraine – 2008" contest, Iryna Zhuravska.
The couple held a beautiful wedding on the banks of the Dnipro. But marital happiness proved short-lived, and by 2011 they had divorced.
Some outlets say the marriage lasted six months, others around a year. Therefore, for the article it’s better to note that it was short-lived, without a precise number of months.
Anna Trincher and Oleksandr Voloshyn – 1 year and 2 months

In September 2022 the singer Anna Trincher married blogger Oleksandr Voloshyn. The newlyweds actively showed their happiness on social media, recorded joint videos, and shared details of family life.
However, within a few months the couple began to experience a crisis. The lovers even turned to a family psychotherapist, but that didn’t save the relationship.
In November 2023 the couple announced their divorce. It turns out viewers saw not only the wedding but also the finale of this love story — almost like a reality show.
Earlier 24 The Channel had already told about star couples with a large age gap who prove that love doesn’t pay much attention to passport numbers.
