"No drama." Grigory Leps and Aurora Kiba have split.
63-year-old Grigory Leps and 19-year-old Aurora Kiba have split. She announced the news on social media: "Beyond gossip, rumors, and false speculation, we are officially no longer a couple. We've had so many good, warm, and kind experiences along our journey together. This story ends on a note of gratitude and mutual respect. No drama. We will always be close to each other, but now we're each ready to go our separate ways," she wrote.
The news was met with irony on social media, with comments like "the contract is over" and "the show is over." For the two years the couple dated, few believed the affair was real due to their 44-year age difference. Most believed it was all hype and PR. This led to frequent criticism.
Leps and Kiba denied it, publicly professed their love for each other, talked about planning a wedding and children, vacationed and appeared in public together, but few believed them. They said the girl needed this "romance" to gain media exposure and popularity. This speculation intensified when Aurora became a contestant on a reality show.
