Big Brother Couple Celebrates 14 Years of Marriage, Thriving Careers

Violeta and Nikša Kekezović, a couple who found love on the 2006 season of the reality show "Big Brother," are celebrating 14 years of marriage. They met during the show and their relationship blossomed, leading to marriage and two children.

“

With hindsight, I can say that it was a special, unrepeatable life experience. I entered out of curiosity, and left with a story I will tell my grandchildren one day.

Violeta Kekezović reflected on her "Big Brother" experience as a unique and formative period. "I entered out of curiosity and left with a story I'll tell my grandchildren one day," she told Net.hr. While acknowledging the challenges of public recognition, she noted that people now recognize her more for her successful career in the beauty industry, which she finds preferable.

“

People still recognize me sometimes, especially those who followed that season. But today, they recognize me more for my work than for television – which suits me very well.

With over 15 years in the field, Violeta specializes in beauty, bridal, and fashion makeup. She finds deep satisfaction in helping clients, especially brides, feel confident on their important days. "The most beautiful thing is when a woman leaves the studio, brimming with confidence and a smile on her face," she said. She has built a life in Split, embracing the Dalmatian spirit and culture.

It's very nice for the children! I think it's interesting and nice for them to know that their parents had such an unusual beginning.

When asked about her marriage to Nikša, Violeta described it as a partnership that has navigated various phases. "Our marriage has gone through all phases – from euphoria to daily challenges. We are still a team," she stated. She attributes their enduring bond to "respect, communication, and humor," highlighting their commitment to each other even through difficulties and their effort to prioritize time together amidst busy schedules.
