Russian singer Anna Sedokova has again faced a wave of criticism on social media after users recalled the tragic fates of her two former husbands and attempted to link the events to her. Footballer Valentin Belkevich died in 2014 from a blood clot, while Latvian basketball player Jānis Timma took his own life two years ago.

Sedokova said such accusations cause her great pain and stressed that she does not consider herself responsible for other people's decisions. Addressing her followers, she asked whether she could be blamed for something that happened to someone years after their separation, and denied that her former partner had ever truly loved her.

Speaking about the tragedy involving Timma, the singer asked that the topic not be discussed in an offensive manner, noting that what she experienced two years ago was extremely painful. She added that not all of her past relationships ended tragically, pointing out that other former partners continue to live happy lives.

Support from a psychic

Sedokova said that while appearing on the show "Master of the Game," she received support from esoteric television personality Alexander Sheps, who won the show "Battle of Psychics" in 2013. According to the singer, Sheps told her she was not to blame for what happened.

Despite the criticism and increased attention to her personal life, Sedokova continues to actively maintain her social media presence. This is not the first time she has had to publicly defend herself — she previously addressed accusations of flirting with a married man, saying she had not known about his family situation.
