After revealing her relationship with her former stepson, she said: “So many people tell me to use makeup - make lashes, and curl my pubic hair - because of my young husband.
“But there is one thing - he fell in love with me with all my scars from plastic surgeries, cellulite, excessive skin and personality.
“And I do not want to seem better than what I am."
She also told how she had insisted on a prenup so that she keeps all her money and assets in case of divorce from her new husband.
Her ex Alexey bitterly told journalists: “She seduced my son. He had not had a girlfriend before her.
“They were not shy to have sex while I was at home. I would have forgiven her cheating, if it wasn't my son….
“She was running to my son's bed from our bedroom when I was sleeping…
“After that she was coming back and lying in bed with me as if nothing had happened.”
Marina now says he previous marriage was "not living but pretending”
She told her followers: “Did I have regrets that I destroyed the family? Both yes and no.
