The glamorous daughter of a Red Army colonel, Ms Lemigova is believed to have been married briefly to the Moscow model agency founder who helped propel her to fame. How they met - or when Ms Lemigova became a lesbian - is not clear. But they haven’t always been as respectable as Martina Navratilova. Indeed, Ms Lemigova has long enjoyed the company of rich companions. This is particularly so as a woman who swapped the hardships of communism for a gilded existence in the West. Like many a wealthy Parisienne, she appears at her happiest when she’s surrounded by a glamorous crowd. Ms Lemigova has two daughters - aged 13, and eight. The inspiration for her creations, she says, comes from her mother back home. The Russian beauty is a successful businesswoman in her own right - the luxury spa she opened in Paris is no more, but she has a cosmetics brand called Russie Blanche (White Russian) selling items such as caviar ‘body polish’. On the last day of the French Open tournament in June, she joined Navratilova for dinner with the player’s old rival, Chris Evert. Lemigova’s Wimbledon fortnight was spent at the best restaurants and clubs, as she enjoyed meals with friends including the singer Natalie Imbruglia. This year, the pair skied in the millionaires’ playground of Aspen, Colorado, where Navratilova has another home. The couple tied last weekend but it may have taken the couple so long to do so because of Ms Lemigova's troubled past, which included her boyfriend being shot dead by a prostitute Fresh-faced, slim and elegant, she has just spent the summer flitting between her grand Paris apartment near the Arc de Triomphe and Monte Carlo, Cannes, St Tropez, Ibiza and Majorca - not to mention regular trips to Florida, where Navratilova has a mansion in the wealthy Miami suburb of Coconut Grove. Superficially, it’s hard to connect Ms Lemigova with such a grubby world. Revelations that he was a participant in sexual orgies alongside some of France’s most powerful figures have fuelled claims of a high-level cover-up that has suppressed the truth over not only his death - but that of their son, Maximilien. One of Europe’s richest men, French banker Edouard Stern was shot dead while encased in pink Latex - murdered by his prostitute lover during a bondage session.
Lemigova married her long-term partner Martina Navratilova in New York on 15 December 2014.For Ms Lemigova not only had a baby son who died in suspicious circumstances, but she has been fighting for years to discover whether the tragedy is linked to the child’s powerful father, who also died in murky circumstances. She has two daughters, Victoria, born in 2001, and Emma, born in 2005. In 1997, Lemigova became romantically linked to banker Édouard Stern, with whom she had a son, Maximilian, who died of shaken baby syndrome while in the care of a new nanny. In 2021, Lemigova was announced as a cast member on season 4 of The Real Housewives of Miami, making her the third former Miss Universe finalist to join a Real Housewives franchise after Kenya Moore ( Miss USA 1993, Miss Universe 1993 Top 6 Finalist) from Atlanta (seasons 5-10, 12-present) and Joyce Giraud (Miss Universe Puerto Rico 1998, Miss Universe 1998 2nd-Runner-Up) from Beverly Hills (season 4). Lemigova moved to Western Europe after being crowned Miss USSR, eventually basing herself in Paris, where she opened her first well-being center, Joiya spa, in 2003, and launched a skincare and spa line, Russie Blanche, in 2009. Lemigova was first runner-up at Miss USSR in 1990, elevated to be crowned Miss USSR following the disqualification of the original winner, Maria Kezha, for being underage.Īs Miss USSR 1990, Lemigova represented the Soviet Union at the Miss Universe 1991 pageant, where she placed 2nd runner-up.
