SHAMAN and Mizulina Marry After Public Courtship
Fans are already speculating about when the blonde couple will have children.
Singer Yaroslav Dronov, known as SHAMAN, and the head of the Safe Internet League, Yekaterina Mizulina, have married — a short video from the Donetsk registry office appeared on their social media, where they exchanged rings in khaki shirts and pledged eternal love. The couple officially admitted their relationship only in March 2025.
“I Was Streaming in Minecraft”
The lovers met in 2023. At that time, SHAMAN was still married to Yelena Martynova, and Yekaterina Mizulina wasn«t thinking about building a relationship and devoted all her time to work. Everything changed after a stream in Minecraft.
— “I was streaming in Minecraft, dedicated to Russia Day. In this stream, one of Yaroslav«s songs ‘I Am Russian’ was playing. The next day, he wanted to come, meet, and talk. That»s how our communication began. Quite youthful, I think,” Yekaterina later said.
The first meeting quickly grew into close communication. The couple increasingly recorded joint videos, delighting fans. In October, it became clear that while Dronov was getting closer to Mizulina, he distanced himself from his wife, with whom he had lived for six years. In October 2024, the spouses announced their divorce.
— “Yelena and I are very busy people. Unfortunately, such a work schedule and level of employment didn«t leave us time for a normal personal life. The divorce is our joint decision. We remain on good terms, without any conflicts or resentments,” the singer commented on the decision.
While Martynova was parting with her wedding ring, Mizulina was showing her subscribers a bouquet from a secret admirer. This raised even more questions among fans.
For several months, the couple did not fuel interest in their relationship, waiting for February and Valentine«s Day. At the beginning of the month, during a joint visit to one of Moscow»s schools, Dronov and Mizulina pretended to kiss amid loud shouts of “Bitter!”, and on Valentine«s Day itself, the singer published a romantic clip.
SHAMAN«s romantic Valentine»s Day clip that fueled rumors about their romance.
Fans refused to believe that the kiss was just a warm-up and began bombarding the couple with questions — are they dating? Dronov and Mizulina could no longer keep their love a secret. On March 9, during a solo concert with the symbolic title “You Are Mine,” the singer invited Yekaterina on stage and made a tender confession.
— “You are my whole universe. I have to say this. I think the time has come. Yekaterina, everyone was guessing, everyone in the dark about what is between us. I officially declare to everyone: we are a couple. We are dating. And we are together. Yekaterina, what do you say to that?” Yaroslav addressed Mizulina.

Mizulina, in a white dress, without hesitation answered “yes.” And the lovers merged into a real kiss in front of everyone.
“Yaroslav and I Visited the Registry Office and Signed”
After the secret became public, Dronov admitted that the proposal to date was a calculated move to avoid gossip.
— “We just go to a grocery store, and they film us with a cart, then post it online and write all sorts of nonsense. What, should we not go out? Lock ourselves in four walls? I want to walk freely, buy groceries,” SHAMAN fumed.
Their relationship developed as if from a textbook: they met the parents, and then moved in together. Mizulina took care of the home, and Dronov continued to work without rest. But, as he admitted, his schedule no longer created problems, as it had in previous relationships.
— “We are inseparable. It«s our absolute desire. Therefore, she (Yekaterina Mizulina. — Ed.) adjusts her schedule… You see, the thing is? Usually, when I»m preparing for a concert, I prefer to be alone. Because the team, close ones, relatives still suck out energy, expend your resources. But Yekaterina, I don«t know how she does it, but she fills me up!” Yaroslav touchingly talked about his girlfriend.

If before, Yaroslav and Yekaterina hardly attracted attention to their personal life, then after the confession, no interview passed without questions, the most frequent of them — when is the wedding?
— “We are at the very start of our relationship, this matter hasn«t come up yet, but everything is developing. Here, in no case should we rush events, you understand, I have two divorces behind me — that»s also a moment… We«ll live and see,” Yaroslav explained back at the beginning of summer.
At some point, the singer mentioned that the wedding would be in summer, but which year — was still unknown. Such an answer quite satisfied the public, especially since summer 2025 was already nearing its end, and 2026 was still far away. Only, as it turned out, Dronov did not wait that long.
The couple«s low-key celebration at Burger King following their secret nuptials.
During a trip to Donetsk for National Unity Day, the couple dropped by the registry office between tasks and secretly signed. The spouses also abstained from feasts and modestly celebrated their new relationship status at Burger King.
— “In Donetsk, Yaroslav and I visited the registry office and signed,” Yekaterina only reported in her blog and published a video from the ceremony.
