In August 2020, Alesya Kafelnikova disappeared from the information space for some time. Soon the girl posted on Instagram a photo from the plane and a video of herself swimming in the sea. As it turned out, the model flew away from the loud scandal to Montenegro, where she took a vacation.

Model's height and weight
Photos of Lesya Kafelnikova are proof that the girl has an ideal figure. With a height of 176 centimeters, the girl’s weight ranges from 48 to 54 kilograms. As the model herself says, in order to have a thin waist and beautiful breasts, she has to carefully monitor her diet and actively engage in sports.
She eats twice a day and does not eat after six o'clock in the evening (Lesya's diet at this time includes only coffee or tea). But sometimes a girl can allow herself to enjoy cakes or sweets.
Lesya is one of the spectacular representatives of the younger generation of the elite strata of society. From a young age, she hangs out in the company of golden youth and attends metropolitan parties.
The girl's favorite hobby is show jumping, in which she has achieved good results. Lesya received a horse as a gift from her dad, which she named Kitty.
Nikita Novikov and Lesya Kafelnikova
At the age of 15, Lesya had a lover, Nikita, who was the son of the famous restaurateur Arkady Novikov. The couple spent all their free time together, and Lesya called the heir to the restaurant business her husband. She publicly confessed her feelings to Nikita and said that she would not give him to anyone.
Nikita constantly arranged romantic surprises for his beloved. One day Lesya Kafelnikova received a gift from him in a box, when the girl opened it, a large number of butterflies flew out of it. The young man in love presented the model with chic bouquets of flowers and original gifts.
Lesya posted photos of them together on her blog, which indicated that the couple had a serious relationship, but Yevgeny Kafelnikov banned this. Young people often went out together and went on vacation to warm countries.
Scandals
In April 2020, journalists accused Lesya Kaf of being too thin. With a height of 175, the girl’s weight is 48 kg. The media stated that the girl was close to anorexia and was promoting this disease by her own example. This issue was discussed on the talk show “Live,” which Lesya was unable to attend. Then the girl recorded a video message where she talked about her own heredity and proper nutrition.

At the end of 2020, the girl arranged an erotic photo shoot on the white cliffs of Dover. In a historical place in Great Britain, the model appeared almost naked - only in her underwear. Journalists rushed to show the photographs to Kafelnikova’s father and take a comment on this matter, but the tennis player replied that he already knew what his daughter was doing in England.
In 2020, Alesya became the center of another scandal when she recorded a harsh video about Russia. The girl said that she hates her native country for the Russian mentality, envy of the stars and for constant attempts to use people. At that time, the model lived in London. Outraged Internet users responded to Lesya that the girl’s parents provide the model’s life with money earned in Russia.
To this, the model replied that neither her mother nor her father help Kafelnikova financially. The girl described her day: life in a hostel, trips on the subway, spending thriftyly. But this information did not convince the angry public.

Subsequently, Kafelnikova’s official representative stated that the girl apologizes for the scandalous video, and also that the model had something else in mind, but Lesya did not have enough knowledge of the language to express herself correctly.
In the summer of 2020, information appeared in the media that the model was in intensive care, and Alesya Kafelnikova’s father hinted on his own official Twitter that Lesya was a drug addict. The girl answered the tennis player succinctly. On her own pages on Instagram and Twitter, the model posted a photo with a middle finger and a request not to interfere in other people’s lives.
Fans suggested that the girl’s illness was related to her breakup with rapper Pharaoh, since the star couple stopped going out together and taking pictures. But Kafelnikova denied these rumors and said that she was healthy and did not even intend to part with the young man.

But the Internet scandal was gaining momentum, and the rumors could no longer be stopped. The media reprinted information that Lesya Kaf was taking drugs, and details appeared that the girl was snorting coke. Even well-meaning celebrities took the information about drugs on faith. Dana Borisova, who herself is being treated for drug addiction in an Asian clinic, recorded an appeal to the girl, where she offered help.
Fans supported Alesya Kafelnikova. According to Internet users, even if Yevgeny Kafelnikov’s words are true, such problems cannot be put on public display without the desire of the girl herself, especially since strangers who were not asked for help should not interfere in this matter.
Parting of young people
Despite the rapid development, the relationship between Lesya and Nikita lasted only a year and a half. The couple decided to separate, thereby causing the surprise of those who closely watched their beautiful romance in real life and on social networks.
The main reason for their breakup began to be called the mutual infidelities of young people. Lesya Kafelnikova herself refuted this opinion, voicing her version of the separation. In her opinion, their relationship simply outlived its usefulness.
Nikita lived and studied in England, and the distance that separated the lovers could also cause the fading of feelings. The young people decided to plunge headlong into their main activities: Lesya into her career, and Nikita into her studies.
At first, Lesya Kafelnikova had a hard time breaking up with Nikita Novikov, but over time she managed to push the memories of her romance into the background. The girl completely immersed herself in her work and began to successfully conquer the world’s podiums. She tries not to talk about the details of her personal life; there is little information about the model’s hobbies.
Lesya is currently pursuing a modeling career in London. In everyday life, a girl prefers comfortable sportswear and rarely wears expensive, exclusive items. Lesya Kafelnikova also rarely uses cosmetics in everyday life.
Modeling and creativity
Alesya Kafelnikova claims that she made her modeling career without the help of her famous dad. She says that her father not only did not invest money in her promotion in the modeling business, but at first he was against Alesya working as a fashion model. But the daughter turned out to have a strong character, and she insisted on her choice. The only help from her father, the girl says, was a famous surname. And it is unlikely that Kafelnikova would have been able to move up the career ladder if she did not have the appropriate external data.

In addition, the girl began to promote her own image on social networks and try herself as a photoblogger. Today Alesya Kafelnikova has 372 thousand subscribers on Instagram.
In 2013, while Alesya Kafelnikova was studying in England, she received an invitation to an open day at the Elite modeling agency. The girl took part in two model tests. They paid attention to her, but at the time of testing Lesya was not 16.
In 2014, Alesya Kafelnikova was spotted at the fashion show of the new collection of the young designer Kira Plastinina. The girl presented new clothing models. In the autumn of the same year, Lesya became a debutante at the Tatler ball. She wore a Dior dress and danced with her father.

The invitation from Elite scouts came when Kafelnikova had already returned to her homeland. In September 2020, Alesya’s parents received a letter offering to sign a contract for 5 years. But when the girl arrived in London, she was advised to gain weight, because the existing one - 43 kilograms - turned out to be insufficient.
As for her modeling career in Russia, for some time Alesya Kafelnikova collaborated with the Avant agency, but then, of her own free will, she stopped working with it.
In everyday life, Lesya Kaf prefers sporty style and affordable brands Zara and Topshop. Her wardrobe, of course, contains expensive and exclusive items from famous couturiers, but Kafelnikova rarely wears them. The girl can be found in jeans or discreet tracksuits. She rarely wears makeup.
Model Alesya Kafelnikova
At the beginning of June 2020, viewers saw the young model on the talk show “Let Them Talk.” She appeared as an assistant to presenter Andrei Malakhov. Perhaps Alesya Kafelnikova’s creative biography will continue as a TV presenter.
The daughter of a tennis player appeared in the 12th issue of the “Afftarzhot” rating column. Throughout the entire program, as before, Malakhov spoke. The girl only got the phrase “Afftar zhot-12” at the very beginning of the show. But the debut took place. Perhaps Alesya Kafelnikova will be entrusted with much more text in the next issues.
