The hard path of Irina Shayk
One of the most beautiful women in the world, Irina Shayk, has gone through a thorny path to success. But after all ,she made it!
Irina Shayk turns 36 today, and she is one of the most beautiful women in the world and also the highest-paid model.
She spent her entire childhood in poverty, growing potatoes and tomatoes. It was hard but she made it.
The boys at school regularly teased her because she had ‘sticks instead of legs’, and when she first applied for an American visa, she was almost rejected because of her Muslim origins.
After a five-year relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo, she entered into a romance with actor Bradley Cooper, but she was unlucky there as well. From her marriage to Bradley, she has a daughter, Leo de Seine. The thing is that former fiancés have been spending more and more time together without a daughter, so fans are hoping for reconciliation.
Rumors were circulating that Ronaldo and Irina had a child, but it turned out that this was not true, but only rumors of fans. Rumors began to circulate as the identity of the mother of one of Ronaldo's children is still unknown to the public. Also, Cristiano is very attached to his mother, which Irina could not bear, after which she left his life.
Irina grew up in the small Russian town of Yemanzhelinsk as Irina Valeryevna Shaykhlislamova. Her father, who worked in a coal mine, fell ill and died in his early forties, and Irina's mother was left alone to care for her daughters.
‘We survived by growing vegetables which we then sold. It was very difficult for us',' said the popular model.
She inherited a dark complexion from her father, who was a Tatar, and bright eyes from her mother. Irina says that people often thought she was from Brazil, because of her characteristic beauty. Although she wanted to be a journalist, fate took her in a different direction.
Her mother wanted to enroll Irina's sister in a beauty school, but the staff of the fashion agency that was right next door immediately noticed young Irina who went out into the world with them. At the age of 18, she traveled to Moscow where she made a portfolio, and soon found herself in Hollywood, where she built a career.
She stood out on the fashion scene with her enchanting beauty, although some say that Irina's beauty is not natural, and as proof, they attach her photos from her early youth.
Such remarks did not weaken her position on the fashion scene, which was brought to her by her long-term collaboration with the well-known brand Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, in whose campaigns she participated from 2007 to 2015.
Her modeling career was marked by the covers of Vogue magazine, with collaborations with brands such as Christian Dior, Chanel and Versace, and Victoria's Secret. Creative director Donatella Versace is Irina's longtime friend.
Today, Irina is one of the best-dressed women in the world, and she shows great style every day when photographers take pictures of her walking the streets of New York with her daughter Lee or mother Olga, with whom she is very close.
By the way, she can't stand when she falls into the trap of the paparazzi, which she is not used to even after a decade of doing public work.
