The widower of the legendary singer Nina Matvienko, artist Pyotr Gonchar, for the first time named the reason for their breakup and spoke about betrayal. The couple have been married for 50 years. In the program “The whole country is speaking,” Gonchar admitted that he sought Matvienko’s favor. After marriage, the man was jealous of his wife, because she was surrounded by many admirers. However, the singer could have been jealous of the artist, because he was loving. \! I was jealous! There were a lot of fans. Well, she was jealous of me because I loved beauty,” the man admitted.

The couple lived together for 50 years, but in 2021 they announced that they had separated and started living separately.. According to Gonchar, it was he who made this decision. At first Matvienko quarreled with her husband, but in the end they found a common language. True, Gonchar realized that he had acted rather selfishly and asked for forgiveness. “When everything was done - there are children, grown up, grandchildren appeared, there is a place to live, something to live for, I made this decision. She understood it. I just did it selfishly, of course, selfishly. I asked for forgiveness. In the first years, we may have conflicted at this level, but then we reconciled and communicated,” the man shares.

Pyotr Gonchar believes that he betrayed Nina Matvienko by moving from their common home: “We can also talk about treason here, because when you leave, it’s already treason.”. Let us remind you that Nina Matvienko passed away on October 8, 2023. On the anniversary of the death of the legendary mother, Tonya Matvienko honored her memory. The artist was brought to tears by addressing her deceased loved one.
