Their romance was short, stormy and incredibly tragic.

The young man wanted to quickly climb the star Olympus, and then suddenly he was taken away from the role on which he was betting. Stanislav began to experience depression, which Valentina and her husband did not want to see, so they drowned the surrounding problems in wine.


Another evening spent drinking alcohol ended in tragedy. In 1978, Stanislav Zhdanko was found with a knife in his heart. Initially, the police considered the incident a suicide.
