Marriage to Bebešek and emigration to the USA
Victoria Vradiy was married to producer Volodymyr Bebeshko. They tried to develop their careers in the United States, but her husband returned to Ukraine, and the singer stayed there. The couple later divorced.
Vika decided to adapt there (in the USA – Channel 24). I don’t know the details of her stay there. It seems there were restaurants too. Well, you know, it’s funny – the winner of the “Red Rueta”, and I will sing in the restaurant. Well, let it be, that’s what she decided. And she’s been in America since then,
– said the singer, Volodymyr Bebeshko's older brother Levko Durko in an interview with Rostyslove Production in 2022.
Durko recalled that somewhere in 2019-2020, Sister Vika came to Lviv. Bebeshka and Vradiya do not have children together. However, the singer gave birth to a son, Dmytro, from her first husband.
