Angelina Vovk Addresses Health Rumors in Candid Interview
Television host and actress Angelina Vovk spoke openly to mk.ru to dismiss rumors that her health was in decline. Fans had pointed to several bruises appearing on her arms, suggesting a troubling health trend. Vovk explained that these marks are not signs of illness but a consequence of routine medical procedures she often undergoes to maintain her wellbeing.
She clarified that hematomas can form after IV sessions, a common treatment she uses to support her vitality and energy levels. Vovk emphasized that she frequently receives plasma or vitamin drips to keep her body in good working order. She also noted that regular medical tests are part of her standard health routine, aimed at monitoring her condition and ensuring she remains fit for her demanding schedule.
“Yesterday I had an drip, and you can see how a bruise can appear,” she said. “My capillaries tend to react in certain ways. It isn’t something I can control completely. If the bruises on my right hand don’t look as active, the ones on my left have carried on for a long time.”
Vovk’s career began long before today. She debuted on screen in 1966 with Grigory Pozhenyan’s film Goodbye, marking the start of a prolific journey in Russian cinema. Following her acting entry, she took on duties as an announcer at the USSR Central Television, where her voice and presence became familiar to audiences across the country. Over the years, she hosted a variety of programs that resonated with families and viewers at home. Her credits include popular shows such as Alarm Clock, Good Night Kids, Morning Mail, and Music Kiosk, making her a familiar face in daily broadcasts.
In her personal life, Vovk has been married twice. Her first marriage, which lasted from 1966 to 1982, was to Gennady Chertov, an announcer who shared in the early years of her public life. Her second marriage, in 1982, was to artist Jindrich Goetz; the couple separated in 1995. These chapters are part of the broader story of a career that spanned decades and crossed paths with many notable figures in Soviet and post-Soviet entertainment.
In related news, public attention recently turned to Ivan Krasko, who at age 92 was reported to have brain damage. The focus on health across generations of performers underscores the ongoing public interest in the well‑being of aging artists who shaped broadcasting and cinema in the region, often while balancing intense professional demands with private lives.
