Nevertheless, for more than ten years they have been happily married and have beautiful daughters. Read more in our article.
Childhood of the golden girl
Elena Vakulenko (nee Pinskaya) is the daughter of a well-known businessman and successful journalist.
Lena was born on the twenty-third of July 1980 in the Russian capital. The biography of Elena Vakulenko is very different from the life of her future husband Vasya Basta.
From childhood, the girl did not know the need for anything. Her father is the co-owner of the wine brand DP-Trade and her mother is a fashion journalist.
Pinsky's business developed in the dashing 90s. Concerned about the safety of his daughter, the father assigned guards to her, who accompanied the girl everywhere. Even at school shewas under control.
When Elena Vakulenko (Pinskaya) turned 12, her parents sent her to study in France at a private boarding school. The girl did not know French at all, but she very quickly had to adapt and plunge into a non-speaking environment. A year later, Tatyana Pinskaya (the mother of our heroine) also moved there.
The parents divorced, and soon the businessman married a second time. However, he did not stop participating in the life of his daughter, helping her. With the children of Dmitry Pinsky from his second marriage, Lena also maintains friendly relations.
Education and career
At the age of 17, after graduating from high school, the girl decided to return to Russia. Her parents didn't stop her. But the father set a strict condition: the girl must enter the university and learn on her own, without his patronage.
Responsible and rather independent Elena Vakulenko easily entered the State University of Management and graduated from it.
There was no protection during employment either. Dmitry Pinsky did not leave his daughter without a job, but decided that she should learn business from the bottom. Basta's future wife Elena Vakulenko worked for some time as an ordinary seller in one of the stores of the DP-trade network, which belongs to her father.
Lena was driven by the desire to prove her worth to her father. She studied relevant books, was interested in her father's business. In addition, she studied as an external student at the Moscow International Higher School of Business. As a result, the girl moved up the career ladder. Now she has started tocomplete set of four wine cellars "Chateau Margaux". Elena Vakulenko worked in this position until her marriage.
Private life
There are two marriages in Elena Vakulenko's biography. She married for the first time at the age of 25. Who was the chosen one of the "golden" girl is not known. But this union did not last very long.
True love Elena met in 2007 in the Moscow club "Simachev". The girl liked this institution, as it is much more comfortable than the pretentious clubs in which golden youth prefer to gather. Here one could often see the performances of young rappers, including Basta.
Elena really liked the music of this artist. Her mother was also a fan of Basta.
In November 2007, after another performance by Vasily Pinskaya, she decided to approach the young man and express her sympathy for his work. Elena was not embarrassed that another girl accompanied him. Our heroine is not shy. She waited until the rival left and handed the young man her business card.
A well-groomed beauty with regular features and deep eyes immediately liked the musician. Communication began between them. It turned out that Elena and Vasily live in the same area.
Quite quickly, the couple started dating. Vasya was not embarrassed that his chosen one was from a we althy family, which is called a "major". He worked hard to match his beloved. Friends and relatives were surprised by the choice of the metropolitan beauty. Many dissuaded her from thisunpromising union. But love conquered all talk.
Vakulenko family
Elena was in no hurry to get married, but Vasya wanted to start a family. Everything was decided by Pinskaya's pregnancy. Upon learning of the expected replenishment, Basta immediately proposed to his beloved, and she agreed.
The registration of marriage took place on June 11, 2009, and the next day the newlyweds got married. The celebration was rather modest, but Vasya Vakulenko's wife Elena admitted that it was the best holiday in her life without unnecessary waste.
On December 3, 2009, Vakulenko's daughter Masha was born, and in January 2013 their family was replenished with another beauty named Vasilisa.
Today Vasya and Lena Vakulenko are happy spouses who love each other and take care of their family, no matter what. The secret of family happiness, according to Vasya and Lena, is simple and lies in the mutual respect of partners.
