Uros Zivkovic stays out of Sloba Vasic's divorce story

Singer Uros Zivkovic told reporters on July 28, 2026 that he had not been in touch with his colleague Slobodan Vasic and knew nothing about his divorce. The question came five days after Serbian media began writing about the state of Vasic’s marriage. He answered in two sentences and left it there.

“I haven’t spoken to Sloba, unfortunately, I know nothing about it and I wouldn’t comment because those are his four walls. I wish him to get out of this bad period as soon as possible, because he is a great guy”

He added nothing else. He did not confirm that a divorce was under way, did not deny the reports, and did not mention Vasic’s wife.

What is happening with Slobodan Vasic’s marriage?

The story started on July 23, when outlets published pieces about the relationship between Vasic and his wife Jelena. A day later came reports that the singer had left their shared apartment after an argument, and both of them spoke publicly. Each described going through a difficult period. By July 25 the story had picked up paparazzi photos.

Since then, other performers have largely avoided naming Vasic. That is what made Zivkovic’s answer newsworthy: he heard the question, drew a line, and the only thing he sent his colleague’s way was a wish that the bad stretch ends soon.

A shorter season on the Montenegrin coast

The second half of the statement was about summer bookings. Zivkovic said this year’s season in Montenegro had been cut short, but that everything was full during the days he spent there.

“I’m satisfied, the season got a bit shorter. I haven’t talked to colleagues about how happy they are, but for the couple of days I was there everything was packed. In Montenegro the same singers keep rotating, only the rappers change a little. The pop folk crew is the standard one that has been playing down there for years”

That is the read of a man who worked the coast this summer, not a second-hand estimate. Zivkovic says the pop folk lineup has been the same for years and that the only name that changes on the poster is the rapper.

He did not name the clubs he played, or how many dates he has left before the end of August. His verdict rests on the days he spent there himself, and he said straight away that he had not compared notes with colleagues. His read covers his own diary, not the whole coast.

In the short exchange with reporters he touched on three things:

• the divorce of Slobodan Vasic, which he refused to discuss
• the state of the Montenegrin coast and the length of the season
• the health of his colleague Radisa Trajkovic Djani

On Djani he answered with a smile and one line: “Djani is fine, he just ate something bad”.

Why the silence matters

The Serbian music scene is working a shorter calendar this summer, and the biggest story around it is not music but one singer’s private life. Zivkovic stopped precisely at that line. He talked about the job and gave the marriage nothing beyond a single good wish.

The rest of the story belongs to Vasic and his wife. So far the only thing either has said publicly is that they are going through a hard time. Everything else in circulation runs without their confirmation, and it stays that way until one of them says otherwise.
