Veljko Kuzmancevic: I Signed a Prenuptial Agreement
Appearing on TV Hype, the husband of fashion designer Verica Rakocevic answered talk that he spends her money, saying the two have no shared children or property.
Veljko Kuzmancevic, husband of fashion designer Verica Rakocevic, said on TV Hype that he signed a prenuptial agreement before the wedding. He was responding to talk that he spends her money and counts on her property.
The two are 35 years apart in age and have been married for more than ten years. On the show, Kuzmancevic described how it all began, and also what, in his words, is known about money in their household.
What did he say about the prenuptial agreement?
Kuzmancevic called the stories about money inventions, nonsense and absurdity. Then he said what he had signed:
“I signed a prenuptial agreement before we got married, it is clear what is mine and what is hers.”
He also spoke about his wife’s children. Verica Rakocevic has three children, and he believes everything should stay with them, including the house. “Verica has three children who deserve to keep everything, and that house she earned with her blood and sweat,” he said on TV Hype.
He added that nothing else holds them together: “Absolutely nothing else holds Verica and me together except love, we have no shared children, no property…”
How did they meet? A Facebook message
Kuzmancevic ties the start of their story to a fashion show. He did not know Verica was a designer, and the idea of a symphony orchestra came to him when he saw what kind of event was being organized around her show.
“Back then I knew who Verica was, but I didn’t know exactly that she was a designer, I didn’t know the details. I only saw what kind of event was going to be held around her show at the time, and I thought it would be great if a symphony orchestra accompanied everything and it became a real spectacle. I imagined how wonderful that would be, and I sent Verica a message on Facebook and asked whether we could work together.”
The first reply was not gentle. Kuzmancevic recalls that Verica snapped back: “I don’t make men’s models.” After he explained the whole idea, by his account, she agreed, and that is how a collaboration began that grew into love.
Zlatibor and the decision to marry
Kuzmancevic says there was no conventional relationship between them before the marriage. He described the decision to wed this way:
“At one point I told her we should get married, because she isn’t my girlfriend and I’m not her boyfriend… I was the first to kiss her, it was something spontaneous. I kissed her on Zlatibor, we went away for ten days.”
According to his version, they discussed marriage before they became a couple. Kuzmancevic also maintains that only love ties him to Verica Rakocevic today.
The agreement, he says, was signed before the wedding, it is known who owns what, and there are no shared children. That is how Kuzmancevic summed up on TV Hype why, as he puts it, the stories about his interest in his wife’s money do not hold up.
