Marianna Kalabin is a famous Russian model and personality who have appeared in a number of popular Russian publications. She started her modelling career at a very early age of twenty, after attending school in her native Ukraine. She worked as an assistant to several renowned designers before she decided to pursue her career as a model. The kind of success that she experienced in the modeling world is unusual for a woman her age, considering that height is usually considered a pre-requisite for successful models in the industry. Yet, her achievements in height have given hope to young people who are looking for a career in this area of fashion and design.
Age and nationality do not seem to be mutually exclusive characteristics, despite the common assumption among Russian women that older women belong to the nationality of the country and younger ones are of the opposite nationality. Age is a significant factor in all relationships. As a matter of fact, even young couples who live together and share the same interests with their partners in Russia often remain in love for the rest of their lives. Marianna Kalabin’s story is a good example of how this works.
Her marriage to Andrei Khorkov, a famous Russian designer, was arranged in haste after she broke up with a previous love interest. Though her marriage went smoothly, there were times when Andrei repeatedly pulled away from her. This made Marianna increasingly unhappy. She tried to change his attitude by getting friendly with some of his friends, but this only increased her irritation. She became increasingly worried about the state of her relationship, worried that something might lead her husband again to misread her.
