“Just a year ago, my life looked completely different!” – this is how Lena Perminova, a 38-year-old model, described her journey while answering questions from followers.
Last year, Lena split from millionaire Alexander Lebedev. Now she is dating Taras Romanov, a model nine years younger than her. During her Q&A on Instagram Stories, she admitted it feels surreal to think that only a year ago she was celebrating her birthday with her kids and their father. This year, however, she wants to mark the occasion in Venice during the famous film festival.
According to Lena, she never worries about her children because they are well cared for by their 65-year-old father whenever she is away. She said: “They even traveled to Lake Baikal recently, and we are always in touch. Alexander often adjusts his schedule so I can enjoy my own time off.”
In August, Perminova vacationed in Capri and Ibiza with her new boyfriend Taras. Because of his last name, many followers confuse his name with Roman. One fan even asked, “How did you meet Roman?” To which Lena jokingly replied: “I haven’t met Roman yet. I do have a romance, but not with Roman.”
When asked about aging, Lena admitted she is a little afraid of it but feels grateful for modern medicine. Recently, she even flew to Dubai for a non-surgical skin tightening treatment called Endolift. However, she made it clear that she doesn’t plan to change herself with plastic surgery. For example, when asked about breast augmentation, she said she is perfectly happy with her current size. “After breastfeeding all four of my children, I used to have a size four. Yes, I breastfed each one of them,” she shared.
Interestingly, Lena also confessed she might consider having a fifth child one day: “I actually miss the time when all of them were playful little kids.”
News of her split from Alexander Lebedev broke at the end of last year. Almost immediately after, Lena began her new relationship with Taras Romanov. Despite the breakup, she has managed to keep a warm and supportive bond with her former partner and father of her children.
