Laima Vaikule is a popular actress, singer and producer. She is the People's Artist of the Republic of Latvia and the performer of such hits as "Vernissage", "It's not evening yet", "Fiddler on the Roof", "Sherlock Holmes", "I went to Piccadilly", "Easy jazz walk". It is quite natural that the details of the famous artist's personal life haunt the army of fans of her talent.
An amazing artist and spectacular woman, whose creative path admires her many fans throughout the post-Soviet space and even in the far abroad. That's who Laima Vaikule is. However, in her impeccable creative and personal life, there is one "fad" that, although it does not bother the pop star in public, is still the "stumbling block" that still leaves many questions of the interested public unanswered. And the point in this context is about the children of the artist.
Despite the flawless appearance of the 65-year-old woman, which eloquently testifies to the fact that she carefully monitors her appearance, fans are perplexed about their idol's bad habit associated with smoking. In addition, fans suspect the star of infertility and regular cosmetic surgeries. However, be that as it may, the artist's bright creative life suggests that she personifies success and talent, without which it is simply impossible to achieve such impressive results.
Brief biography of Laima Vaikule
On March 31, 1954, in the Latvian city of Cesis in an ordinary working-class family, where two daughters and one son were already raised, the future pop star was born. Since the creative environment was alien to Laima's immediate environment, she did not intend to become a singer at all. However, the girl's natural inclination to engage in vocals manifested itself regularly. Apparently, church singing in the choir by my grandmother formed this genetic dependence.
At the age of 3, the Vaikule family moved to Riga for permanent residence. In order to understand the inner world of a talented person, it is imperative to look into his childhood years. And it was then that a rebellious spirit began to appear in Lyme. The girl always preferred the company of boys, with whom she even ran away from home. Moreover, her outright disobedience to the general rules in no way affected her excellent academic performance. But study has never been a priority for the future singer, who always wants to show her creativity.
Her debut performance at the competition for young performers at the age of 12 was a real starting point in her creative career. It was then that the girl truly believed in her abilities. And at the age of 15, she met Raymond Pauls, who then led the local orchestra. However, after receiving a certificate of secondary education, Lyme decides to enter a medical school. Moreover, she perfectly combines training with singing.
1984 was another milestone for Vaikule in her professional maturation. A young woman enters the directing department of GITIS. In parallel with her studies, she participates in numerous concert programs, performing musical compositions from the repertoire of Raymond Pauls. Unique vocal skills quickly made the singer recognizable. Since that time, she has acquired her own individual manner of performance, which have become a real business card for her.
The personal life of the singer
Despite the spectacular appearance of the pop singer and her rather impudent character, the rumors that Laima Vaikule have been accompanied by numerous amorous stories throughout her creative career are clearly exaggerated. Since 1978, her family life is entirely connected with her only spouse - Andrei Latkovsky. It is the pop star's husband, from the moment they met in the distant "seventies", who has been producing it.
Interestingly, for 30 years, their romantic history was accompanied only by relationships in the status of a civil marriage. The singer herself never suffered from the fear of being alone and did not seek to put the appropriate stamp in her passport. The wedding took place only a little over ten years ago. Moreover, the triumph of the moment was not perpetuated with special splendor, as is customary in their creative environment, greedy for enchanting effects.
Considering herself keeping up with the times, the pop singer is an active Internet user, where she has her own Instagram page. More than 180 thousand fans have subscribed to it. Here Laima Vaikule regularly shares with subscribers details from the so-called "behind the scenes". It is noteworthy that the singer's cheerful character and positive energy are always clearly demonstrated in her numerous photos and videos, where she certainly smiles.
From publicly available sources of information, it is known that Lyme is a vegetarian, protector of the flora and fauna of the planet, avoiding, among other things, natural fur in her wardrobe. In addition, the singer does not hide that she cannot get rid of such a bad habit as smoking.
Children of Laima Vaikule
Unfortunately, Laima Vaikule and Andrei Latkovsky have no children together. So fans have the right to suspect that the pop singer is sterile. However, no one has ever received a direct answer to numerous thematic questions from both spouses. Still, the version that the spouses gave all their preference to creative activity, and not to children, can only be believed with huge reservations.
Thus, the absence of children in Laima Vaikule is most likely due to her health. However, the vast experience of family relationships, numbering more than 40 years, and the obvious optimism of the pop star do not give reason to doubt her happy marriage.
Andrey Latkovsky
The only man whom Laima Vaikule has ever loved is her current husband Andrei Latkovsky. Today, it is rare to find such strong marital unions among their colleagues in the creative workshop. Therefore, the absence of joint children does not give any reason to doubt the correct choice of the path for the development of their family relations.
It is noteworthy that for 30 years, these marital relations were not officially formalized. But, be that as it may, and at the present time Laima Vaikule has a corresponding mark of the registry office in her passport. And she considers her husband not only a spouse, but also a real friend, colleague and business partner, with whom she is not afraid even to "go into intelligence."
