The Love Saga of Verica Rakočević and Veljko Kuzmančević: Divorce, Three Sold Apartments, and a 35-Year Age Gap Romance
Verica Rakočević, a renowned Serbian fashion designer, continues to captivate the public with her life story. At 77 years old, she is happily married to Veljko Kuzmančević, a man 35 years her junior. Their love story didn’t start with romance but through a professional collaboration at a fashion show, surprising many and proving that age is just a number when it comes to love.
Divorce That Cost Her Property
Before Veljko, Verica was married to Zoran Rakočević. After their divorce, she had to sell three large apartments she earned herself and invested a lot of time and money into. This decision was tough, and Verica honestly admitted that if she could turn back time, she wouldn’t go through it again. The expensive apartment on the top floor of the building, where she still has her boutique, was part of the property put up for sale. Part of the money was reportedly given to her ex-husband, while the rest was used to pay off accumulated debts.
A Love That Shocked Everyone
Their wedding was far from ordinary. The media buzzed for days about them, focusing on the huge age difference — 35 years! Many predicted their marriage would fail quickly, but Verica and Veljko proved them all wrong. They remain together today, just as in love as on day one.
How It All Began
Veljko sent Verica a message on Facebook asking if they could collaborate. Verica thought he wanted to be a model but replied that she doesn’t make clothes for men. Veljko explained he is a musician and likes her work since every fashion show has a musical background. He proposed collaboration, and Verica told him the theme of the show she was preparing. Veljko sent his idea, and that’s how it all started — professionally, then romantically.
What Can We Learn?
Verica’s story proves life is full of ups and downs, but true love and persistence can overcome all obstacles. Even though she lost a lot of property, Verica gained something more valuable — a happy marriage and a partner who loves her regardless of age.
