GLEB SAVCHENKO'S BREAK-UP

Many were surprised to hear the news about the demise of Savchenko's marriage to ex Elena Samodanova. However, the surprise became even more heightened when about a month after the news of their split, Samodanova filed for divorce.

She pleaded with her fans not to give men second chances since, according to her, they are all the same. Samodanova also claimed that she gave Savchenko many chances, eventually leading them to where they are now.

She went on to state that she'd rather be happy alone than be miserable in a relationship. She also stated that she doesn't believe in the concept of Prince Charming anymore.
