'It just happened, and I needed some push. I needed some support,' Julia Lemigova says. 'It's so important for anybody when you have your family, whether it's your kids or your parents or loved ones — just supporting you and helping you.'
Thursday on the streaming service Peacock, the former Russian model opened up about her yearslong struggle with being public about her sexuality and her relationship with Navratilova, long before opening the world to her life on national television.
Lemigova’s two daughters — Victoria, 21, and Emma, 14 — are from two former relationships prior to Navratilova, whom she started dating in 2008. "I am thrilled of creating this relationship with my fans, and with people in general, and shine the light on our life, how we live —again, love has no gender — and normalize what should have been normal, that is normal," she said.
Lemigova is one of a number of recent"Housewives" firsts. While she and Navratilova are the first same-sex couple to be featured, the franchise has had other LGBTQ cast members.
