‘I was born and raised in a town called Yemanzhelinsk, in the middle of nowhere in Russia. My father was a coal miner and my mom was a pianist – she couldn’t find a job, so she played for kids in kindergarten. It was a very simple life: one main street, no movie theatre, no restaurants.’
Shayk opened up about the death of her father when she was 14.
‘He was the healthiest man alive, and at 44, out of the blue, he was coughing for a while then got pneumonia and died,’ she said. ‘Me, my mom and my sister were left. Three women. We learnt how to early in life, even when we had a father, because in Russia you have to.
‘In summer you grow vegetables and bury them, so in wintertime you have potatoes, carrots, everything, so you can survive. When I moved to New York, I was shocked that people go to the supermarket and buy potatoes. I was like, “That’s crazy.”‘
The Russian invasion of Ukraine was in its sixth day Tuesday, as Russian forces in tanks and armored vehicles were headed into the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.
