Kristina Асмус and Garik Kharlamov celebrated the 11th birthday of their daughter Nastya, showcasing the loving bond they share as co-parents even after their divorce. The occasion was marked with joyful messages and heartwarming pictures, reflecting the joy of both parents for their daughter on this special day.
Despite recently undergoing complex surgery on her leg, 36-year-old Kristina Aсмус did not let this stop her from enjoying some quality time with her daughter. She took Nastya on an unforgettable trip to the Maldives, where they celebrated New Year's and the birthday together. Kristina shared her excitement on social media, hoping her surgeon wouldn't see her tropical vacation posts, as he had advised her to rest instead of embarking on long flights and beach outings.
On her birthday post, Kristina wrote, “Happy birthday to the most perfect person! You turned 11 today! You are rapidly changing and helping others see beauty.” She expressed her deep admiration for Nastya, highlighting her daughter's kindness and strength. “I can never match up to you. You are purer than I am, braver, thinner, and more sensitive. You have immense empathy and can see the light even in the darkest times,” Kristina elaborated.
The loving mother's reflections didn’t stop there. She included old photos from various moments shared with Nastya, showcasing their bond over the years. Kristina also thanked her daughter for her forgiving nature concerning her mistakes and celebrated Nastya's role as her best friend. “Nothing is more beautiful than your mischievous smile,” she concluded, emphasizing the joy Nastya brings to her life.
Mere hours later, Nastya’s father, Garik Kharlamov, who is also well-known for his work with Comedy Club, took to social media to express his love for his daughter. He posted video clips and pictures, including one touching moment where Nastya nestles comfortably on his lap. “Today is the birthday of my one and only, best girl, and simply the coolest daughter on the planet! I congratulate my sweetheart right here too. All wishes personally!” he said with sheer affection.
The timing of the birthday celebration coincided closely with New Year's, reflecting on Garik's fun and family-oriented spirit. Although he humorously admitted to being too exhausted to throw grand celebrations right after the festivities, he promised to honor the special day and make it memorable for Nastya.
Garik and Kristina's relationship has endured significant trials since their divorce, which was finalized in 2020. The couple was married for eight years and welcomed Nastya during their union. Post-divorce, Kristina and Nastya primarily reside together, but Garik remains actively involved, contributing positively to their daughter's upbringing.
Both parents have moved on with their personal lives following their split. Garik is currently married to actress Katerina Kovalchuk, and Kristina is reportedly dating producer Ilya Burets. Yet, they continue to maintain a cooperative parenting relationship for Nastya's best interests.
Nastya's grandma also shared heartfelt birthday wishes on social media, asserting her love for her granddaughter and praying for her happiness and success. She referred to Nastya as her 'favorite girl' and expressed hopes for their enduring friendship.
The emotional exchanges across social media by both parents and their families depict the unified front they present to support Nastya, ensuring she feels loved and cherished from every angle. With Kristina’s touching words and Garik’s playful tributes, it’s clear their daughter is well-celebrated and supported on her special day, showcasing not just her transition to 11 but the unbreakable bonds of family.
The celebration highlights the importance of familial love and the efforts put forth by both parents to nurture their daughter's unique gifts, as Kristina proudly noted her gymnastics talents. With their separate lives but united interests, Kristina and Garik invite the public to celebrate Nastya's growth and accomplishments as she embarks on another exciting year.
Nastya’s birthday celebration does not solely represent her age but also encapsulates the love and joy between her parents as they navigate life post-divorce, proving the beauty of family both within and beyond traditional structures.
