Having tried herself as a model, the future star entered the Higher School of Film and Television Ostankino. In 2006, she became a member of the Dom-2 project. Then came roles in movies and TV series. Victoria hosted television shows, became the face of several brands and created her own jewelry collection.
In 2010, at a party with friends Bonya met the son of Irish billionaire Alex Smurfit. Funny, but the first date did not like Alex: the girl spent the whole evening, buried in the smartphone screen. She later admitted that she knew about his fame as a womanizer and wanted to make him angry.
GettyImages Tactics worked and soon the lovers started living together in Monaco. The billionaire’s family wasn’t happy about it. But no one interfered with the relationship of two adults. In March 2012, Victoria gave birth to a daughter Angelina Letizia. Their life for some time resembled a fairy tale, but before the wedding, it never came, and in 2017, rumors about the couple’s separation spread on the Network.
According to Boni, the reason was the unpreparedness of Alex for family life, as well as her too frequent departures. “I realized that I loved Alex very much and that we were different people. But he is the father of my daughter, and I will always love, respect and appreciate him as a person.
As you can see, the wives of the millionaires on our list went to great lengths to get their position. And in addition to the natural beauty, there was not without self-education, knowledge of languages and amazing dedication. Only youth, like money, comes and goes, and to truly unite a family, you need mutual understanding, patience and common interests.
