Murat Nalchadjian speaks about his relationship with Bilyk

Turkish businessman and former husband of Ani Lorak, Murat Nalchadjian, commented on recent rumours, which are being actively discussed in Ukrainian show business, regarding his possible romantic relationship with singer Irina Bilyk. 

In an interview with Fashion Reality TV journalist, Nalchadjian emphasised that although he likes the artist, their relationship is no more than friendship.

"Irka is undoubtedly a goddess. I consider her a true legend of Ukrainian show business. We really have a close friendship. We have known each other for a long time, and I love her as a person and as a creative individual. She looks magnificent," Murat noted, adding that he highly values Bilyk's work. He also stated that he plans to attend one of her concerts and invited her to dinner, if she is not against it.

"Ira is an amazing woman, and each of her songs sounds as if it comes from the very soul. I hope to make it to her tour, and if she agrees, I would be happy to have dinner with her," he added.

It should be noted that rumours about a romance between the businessman and the singer were first voiced by Ukrainian show business commentator and gossip Bogdan Bespalov, who claimed that Irina and Murat were seen in each other's company, with the businessman flirting with Bilyk, giving her flowers and kissing her.

Murat, for his part, firmly denied all speculation, emphasising that his relationship with Irina remains strictly friendly.
