Yana Gref is the second wife of German Gref, president of Sberbank of Russia. Many consider her the real model of the wife of a prominent public figure, a major businessman, a former politician. However, the media has a lot of conflicting information about the couple, which can be taken for granted or questioned.
Childhood and youth
The young years of Yana Gref (nee Golovina) are shrouded in mystery. Like many celebrities, she prefers not to advertise boring details about her family, friends, age. However, the birth date of Yana Vladimirovna is known - 1975.
According to some sources, the girl was born in Gelendzhik, in the family of workers of one of the local boarding houses. According to other sources, Yana's birthplace is Estonia, and the family is shrouded in mystery. Surprisingly, there are practically no revelations from childhood friends, classmates, and other people in the media that can shed light on these discrepancies in the biography.
After graduating from school, the girl entered the university and received the education of an economist. This information was obtained from Yana herself, the name of the institution remains unknown. Work in the specialty of a novice economist was not carried away. After several years of career experiments, the girl decided to pay attention to her personal life and got married.
The first husband of Yana Vladimirovna was a certain Mr. Glumov. The occupation, age and status of this person is not specified. Given that the press practically does not mention him, Yana's first husband does not like publicity. The marriage was unsuccessful, the couple quickly broke up. There was a son, whom the woman raised alone.
Wedding and family life
The fateful acquaintance with German Oskarovich Gref took place at the beginning of the two thousandth. The circumstances of the meeting are shrouded in mystery. The exact time of dating Yana also does not advertise, however, the date of the luxurious wedding is known. In May 2004, the celebration struck the inhabitants of St. Petersburg and its environs with an unprecedented, truly royal scale.
First of all, the audience noted the place chosen for the ceremony - the throne room of Petrodvorets. Dozens of VIPs came here, after magnificent registration in the park, a grandiose firework was arranged. Naturally, the event was private, ordinary tourists who wanted to visit Petrodvorets that day were left with nothing.
After registration, the couple rode through the park in a luxuriously decorated carriage, and then, together with the guests, went to St. Petersburg on a “presidential” boat (it was this ship that carried VV Putin during the celebration of the city’s 300th anniversary). The banquet was held in a closed residence and lasted until the morning.
The tale, presented by G. Gref to his bride, caused a great scandal in government circles. In 2004, German Oskarovich served as Minister of Economic Development and many wondered: at what expense was Christmas organized and why was it held in Peterhof - a historical reserve. The question was hushed up, but the unpleasant aftertaste slightly spoiled the chic wedding. Echidna journalists from time to time remember him during an interview, causing the anger of the participants in the story.
The family life of Yana Gref is quite prosperous. 2 years after the wedding, the couple had the eldest daughter, in 2008 the youngest was born. Today they go to the school created by their mother. By the way, Gref’s grandson (the child of Oleg’s son, born in his first marriage) also visits this educational institution.
