“There is nothing I have not done to fix it. God has told me that I should not feel hurt. When we start to talk about it, I say, ‘Well, as long as I see him on TV, doing great, no problem’.

But reacting, Olga while responding to a fan on Instagram revealed that the Chelsea star renders help to his family.

The fan had said, ”Beautiful queen, please tell your husband to help his family members and answer his father’s calls. Thanks.”
