Especially when it concerns her son and his personal life. This was the case once again when Lyudmila touched upon one of the most intriguing stories in Ukrainian show business in a pre-New Year video — the possible romance between Dan Balan and Tina Karol.
This topic has long captivated fans. The starry "love" blossomed before the eyes of millions during the "Golos Krayiny" show, where Dan and Tina served as coaches in the 9th and 10th seasons. Their tender compliments, gift exchanges, and even a duet in a "one microphone" format created an incredibly romantic atmosphere. The special charm was added by the participation of Lyudmila Balan, who flew to Kyiv to take part in the show. She sang alongside her potential daughter-in-law and warmly embraced her, leaving viewers with the impression that a wedding was just around the corner.
Tina's fans, who had been concerned for her personal happiness following the loss of her husband, Yevhen Ohir, genuinely rejoiced at the possibility of a couple. It seemed that Tina and Dan had every chance of becoming the perfect pair, but their paths unexpectedly diverged. After the show concluded, Dan began creating duets with other female artists, even from Russia, leaving the "romance with Tina" unattended.
For the fans of the "DanTina" club, this was a real shock. They believed in the love of the star couple, envisioned them having children together, and even concocted future scenarios of their family life. However, time put everything in its place.
When Lyudmila Balan recalled this episode in her New Year’s greeting on Instagram, users once again posed the question: "What about Dan and Tina? Are they together?" The answer was brief and unequivocal: "They have not been together for a long time."
This answer put an end to a story that had recently seemed like a fairytale with a happy ending. Despite everything, the viewers of "Golos Krayiny" will long remember this captivating romance, even if it remains just a beautiful television legend.
