An Italian businessman thought his young model wife had met a cruel fate when she mysteriously disappeared in July after telling him she was going outside for some fresh air — but what he found out was even more of a shock.
Gianluca Cervara was initially so worried that he reached out to authorities, fearing his new bride, former Miss Ukraine Anna Zaiachkivska, had been kidnapped — or worse, according to published reports.
A photo posted by Anna Zaiachkivska (@anna_zaiachkivska2015) on Aug 22, 2016 at 1:49pm PDT
But the search quickly came to a halt when Cervara discovered Instagram photos of his beloved, who clearly wasn’t in danger — she was living it up in New York with another man.
“Your Husband in Milan And Parents say thank You for Be in New York with address Of another Man,” the devastated billionaire sarcastically wrote alongside social media photos the 24-year-old posted after leaving Italy.
“Wooooow Married escape without Tell And with fake address in NewYork!!” he wrote in response to another photo.
The pair wed on Dec. 22, 2015, in an Italian registry office, and had planned to hold a formal church ceremony in September.
But now Cervara is out for revenge, suing Zaiachkivska for breaking their prenuptial agreement — and his heart. He even claims that before she made her escape from Milan, she took $7,000 and a cellphone from his home safe.
Zaiachkivska, who was crowned Miss Ukraine in 2013, told a Ukrainian website that she’d left him because he’d become abusive.
“He raised his hands against me,” she told tochka.net, according to the Daily Mail .
“The first time when he did it I ran away to my parents’ house in the western Ukrainian city of Ivano-Frankivsk. I did not tell them what the matter was.
“He came to get me, and I gave him a second chance, but during an argument he spat in my face, and I simply could not take it.”
The last straw was apparently his inattentiveness.

“I had headaches for a week but Gianluca did not care about it,” she griped. “Finally I decided I needed to make changes as I was fed up of living in a golden cage and I ran away.”
Despite her claims of abuse, the Ukrainian stunner had only nice things to say about her hubby when, just a few days before she vanished, she wrote on his Facebook page: “My amazing Gianluca Cervara, thank you that I can be your flower and part of the family.”
Her Instagram page is now littered with photos of her time in NYC. Several photos include the hashtag “freedom.” Cervara, however, is furious that her “freedom” came without so much as an arrivederci.
“Judging by her photos she is in New York and is working as a model there,” he told tochka.net.
“She has lots of pretty photos taken in five-star hotels, she is posing with other men. She does not look unhappy at all.”
“All I can say is she is not the person she is pretending to be,” he added.

Mitchell, the wife of Richard Nixon's attorney general, alleged she was held hostage and drugged after she attempted to talk to the press.
Fifty years after the break-in and burglary of the Democratic National Headquarters at Watergate , it is still regarded as one of the biggest political controversies of all time. And one chapter continues to shock decades later: the story of whistleblower Martha Mitchell, who leaked details from the scandal—and paid a high price.
Exclaiming she never gives sidewalk interviews, Martha Mitchell, wife of then-U.S. Attorney General John Mitchell, on her way to give sworn testimony about what she knew concerning the Watergate case, 1973.
Martha, a conservative and flamboyant socialite from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, was the wife of John Mitchell , the attorney general and confidante of President Richard Nixon. By 1970, she was also one of the most famous women in America.
With her blonde bouffant and larger-than-life persona, Martha was so well-known that she graced the November 1970 cover of Time magazine , which reported that she had a “lifetime habit of speaking her mind on the instant” and was a “figure of ridicule to liberals and a public embarrassment to many a traditionalist Republican.” That same year, the New York Times called her “the most talked about, talkative woman in Washington.” Her nickname in Washington was the “Mouth of the South.”
“She was this loud, brash, outspoken woman, an incredibly polarizing figure, at a time when most Cabinet wives were completely unknown,” says Garrett Graff, author of Watergate: A New History . “She was the most in-demand Republican speaker in the country next to the president himself.”
In addition to making the talk show rounds, Martha was known for listening in on her husband’s phone calls and meetings, much to the distress of her husband and the Nixon administration. Adding to their ire, she often shared that sensitive information with reporters during late night calls that were rumored to be fueled by her fondness for whiskey.

On the weekend of June 17, 1972, Martha accompanied John, who was then leading Nixon’s reelection committee, to Newport Beach, California, to attend campaign events. It was there that John received a call alerting him that five men had been arrested at the Watergate complex—for the break-in he was said to have authorized .
John headed for Washington, leaving Martha behind at the hotel, reportedly under the watch of security aide and former FBI agent Stephen King. While John was away, Martha read the news and saw photos of one of the captured burglars, James McCord. Martha recognized McCord since he was a former CIA officer and security consultant for the reelection campaign who had recently been Martha’s personal security guard.
Five days after the break-in, Martha called Helen Thomas, a reporter at United Press International who wrote about the events in her book Front Row at the White House . As Thomas writes, Martha told her that she would leave her husband if he didn’t get out of the “dirty business” of politics. Before Thomas could ask her more, she heard Martha saying “Get away. Get away,” and then the phone went dead.
Thomas called back but was told Martha was “indisposed.” Concerned, Thomas wrote that she then called John who nonchalantly replied, “That little sweetheart,” he said. “I love her so much. She gets a little upset about politics, but she loves me and I love her and that’s what counts.”
According to Thomas , Martha alleged that King ripped the phone out of the wall, threw her onto the floor and kicked her. Thomas wrote that Martha was held hostage in the hotel for days and, at one point, five men held her down while a doctor injected her with a tranquilizer. Martha also told Thomas she received stitches in her hand.
She told Thomas when she returned to Washington, “I’m black and blue. They don’t want me to talk.”
But that didn’t stop her. Martha recounted her story to Thomas and other reporters. Despite her speaking out , no charges were ever brought against King or others; and King has denied the kidnapping allegations.
“The story got a fair amount of play—mostly on the women’s pages,” wrote Thomas. “Maybe editors thought it was just another case of Martha being Martha and newsworthy only because it revealed a rift in a very public marriage.”
Dick Perchlik, mayor of Greeley, Colorado, holds a "Free Martha Mitchell" sign at the Democratic National Convention in Miami Beach, 1972.
Efforts to disparage Martha started right away, according to Thomas, who wrote that, “Back in Washington, administrative aides began hinting that Martha was hallucinating, that she was deranged or that she was just drunk.”
“She was written off in part because of the misogyny of the era,” says Graff.
“Martha Mitchell disdained feminists, but she was, in her own way, a feminist hero a woman who would not be bound by the conventional roles assigned to her, a woman who spoke her mind and was silenced,” says Jefferson Morley, author of Scorpions’ Dance: The President, the Spymaster, and Watergate .
Despite what she said had happened to her in California, Martha believed John was not involved in any wrongdoing and defended him during a civil suit against Nixon’s Committee to Re-elect the President. But John, who left Martha in 1973, was convicted of conspiracy, obstruction of justice and perjury, and spent 19 months in prison. “It could have been a hell of a lot worse," John told reporters . "They could have sentenced me to spend the rest of my life with Martha.”
McCord, who was later convicted as a Watergate conspirator, backed up Martha’s story in a 1975 New York Times article . “Martha's story is true—basically the woman was kidnapped,” he said, in an attempt to keep her unaware of Watergate.
Nixon, who eventually resigned the presidency in August 1974, later blamed Martha for Watergate. He told British interviewer David Frost, “I’m convinced if it hadn’t been for Martha—and God rest her soul, because she in her heart was a good person. She just had a mental and emotional problem that nobody knew about. If it hadn’t been for Martha, there’d have been no Watergate.”
Just two years after Nixon resigned, Martha died of bone marrow cancer at the age of 57. In 2017, her story was detailed on the Slate podcast Slow Burn .
“Martha was written out of the story and forgotten for most of the last half century,” says Graff. “She warned America about what was about to envelop the country, and she was ignored. She deserves a much bigger role in the way we tell the story of Watergate.”

Yvonne Charlotte Anne Marie Vendroux
Yvonne Charlotte Anne-Marie de Gaulle ( née Vendroux ; 22 May 1900 – 8 November 1979) was the wife of Charles de Gaulle . The couple had three children: Philippe (b. 1921), Élisabeth (1924–2013), and Anne (1928–1948), who was born with Down syndrome . Yvonne de Gaulle set up a charity, La fondation Anne-de-Gaulle , to help children with disabilities.

Yvonne and Charles were married on 6 April 1921. [1] She is known for the quote, "The presidency is temporary—but the family is permanent." [2] She and her husband narrowly escaped an assassination attempt on 22 August 1962, when their Citroën DS was targeted by machine gun fire arranged by Jean Bastien-Thiry at the Petit-Clamart . [3]

Like her husband, Yvonne de Gaulle was a conservative Catholic , and campaigned against prostitution, the sale of pornography in newsstands, and the televised display of nudity and sex, for which she earned the nickname Tante ( Auntie ) Yvonne . Later, she unsuccessfully tried to persuade de Gaulle to outlaw miniskirts in France. [ citation needed ]

Yvonne was reputed to be very discreet; as such, despite numerous appearances, she never gave any radio or televised interviews, and the broader public never learned the sound of her voice.

Yvonne Vendroux came from a family of Calais industrialists with Burgundian roots. The family name actually originated in The Netherlands , changed from the Dutch "Van Droeg" when the family emigrated during the era of William of Orange (also known as William III of England ). William had decided to flood the fields during the 17th century to push back against the advance of troops from King Louis XIV . Yvonne's ancestor then married a Calasienne during the French Revolution .

Her father, Jacques, was the president of the Council of Administration of Biscuitry, while her mother, Marguerite (née Forest), came from a family in Ardennes , and became the sixth woman in France to obtain a driver's license. She was the granddaughter of Alfred Corneau, industriel de Charleville-Mézières. The Vendroux family spent their summers in the chateau in Notre-Dame de Sept-Fontaines abbey, in the Ardennes.

Her eldest brother, Jacques Vendroux, (born 1897) became deputy and mayor of Calais. Her younger brother, Jean (born 1901) married Madeleine Schallier (1907-2000), fathered seven children, and died in an auto accident in 1956.

Her sister Suzanne Vendroux (February 28 1905 in Calais - 27 December 1980 in Worthing, England ) married Jean Rerolle (July 12 1897 in Châteauroux - 23 March 1978, Neuilly-sur-Seine ) on 5 March 1934 in Fagnon . They had two children, Jacques-Henri (21 January 1935, 17th arrondissement, Paris) and Marguerite-Marie.

Yvonne's parents provided her with a strict education in keeping with their elevated social status and the nature of the era.

She learned to read at home and studied with the Dominican Order of Asnières-sur-Seine (later moving to Périgueux , and was encouraged (as many girls were at the time) to become proficient in needlework. Children were encouraged to use the vousvoyer with their elders, and during World War I , went with their governesses to Canterbury, England , not returning to their parents in France until the end of the year. They were later settled in Wissant , a seaside community in Calais along the English Channel .

Yvonne met Charles de Gaulle in 1920, then a military captain returning from a mission in Poland . It was secretly arranged by the Vendroux family.

Their first date was to the Grand Palais during the fall exhibition to see the painting The Woman in Blue by Kees van Dongen . At a tea shortly after, Charles spilled his cup on young Yvonne's dress. Nonplussed, she laughed, and they continued courting.

Charles invited Yvonne to a Saint-Cyr military ball at the Hotel des Réservoirs , in Versailles , in support of the institution where he had studied from 1912-1918. Two days later, Yvonne declared to her parents, "It will be him, or no one."

They were engaged on 11 November, before the end of Captain de Gaulle's leave, and married on 7 April 1921, in the Notre-Dame de Calais church. De Gaulle played on Yvonne's family business when he expressed his joy on the occasion, writing to a friend, "I am marrying the biscuits of Vendroux."

They honeymooned in Northern Italy , and went on to have three children, a boy and two girls:

In 1934, the family maintained the "Brasserie," property and renamed it "la Boisserie," at Colombey-les-Deux-Églises .
A passionate horticulturist , Yvonne de Gaulle treated the garden as her domain.

The high-walled surroundings were initially intended to protect their daughter Anne, who was afflicted with Down syndrome , from the indiscretion of the public. When Anne passed away in 1948 the family founded The Anne de-Gaulle Foundation in her memory at the château de Vert-Cœur, at Milon-la-Chapelle , directed by future French president Georges Pompidou . Pompidou would subsequently become a close friend to the de Gaulles.

During World War II , Philippe joined the Free French Naval Forces (FNFL), while Yvonne de Gaulle and her husband went to London. General de Gaulle had initially advised her to go south with the children. She managed to make it to London by way of a Dutch ferry to Brest , then Falmouth . It was the last ship leaving the port.

There they made the acquaintance of Prime Minister Winston Churchill , who provided updates of their daily life until they were able to return home.

Yvonne de Gaulle became the unofficial First Lady of France on 21 December 19
