Jani Sievinen, 51, and Maria Nyqvist41, have come to divorce after less than five years after being married and 11 years in common. The decision was Nyqvist. Despite the surprising announcement, the difference did not come suddenly, as Nyqvist Iltalehti confirmed.

Only a week ago the couple opened their relationship with Kotilieden in an interview. Nyqvist said that at the beginning of the relationship, he was dubbing publicity. The interview shows how the summer pattern of eleven a year ago led to a long relationship and a new family pattern. However, according to Kotiliede, the couple held their own homes throughout the relationship, even though Sievinen mainly spent his time at Nyqvist’s home in Helsinki.

The couple met in 2014 at a friend’s dinner party.

– When Mary came in, I looked like that, let’s get an empty place next to that! I told Mary that this is your place by the way. We got pretty good – after 15 minutes we were already kissing around the corner, Jani revealed to Iltalehti in 2019.

In the same interview with the 2019 Iltalehti, a loved one finished each other’s sentences and immersed himself in the eye over each other’s cups. At that point, they had been dating for more than five years – and behaved like a newborn.

The couple had become engaged in April of the same year.

One Friday night at the kitchen table, Jani took Maria. Maria says she has made just failed mussels.

– I forcibly ate them, Jani laughs.

“In these important situations, the food has been terrible, even with first date, the steaks were terrible,” Maria says with a laugh.

At that time, the Lapland wedding was under construction for March 2020. For a couple of weddings in Levi, a whole week had been reserved. However, in the spring of 2020, the coronavirus, which became a global pandemic, put the staples on the stroller and the wedding was canceled. Namely, the government denied gatherings of more than 10 people.

– Friday next week was supposed to be one of the best days of our lives, our wedding day. However, in this situation, events with dozens of people in the same place are not sensible. We take our responsibility here, even though it seems so unreasonably cruel to move so much and long-awaited event, Nyqvist wrote at that time in his Facebook update.

Finally, the same year, November 6, the wedding was celebrated. According to the original plan, the whales were sworn in Levi. The party celebrated in the family circle lasted throughout the week.

– A crazy evening yesterday. Let’s get married. Thanks to everyone. A happy man, wrote Jani Sievinen in her publication at the time.

The Levi Heavenly White was chosen as a wedding venue five years earlier, when the couple went to Levi for the first time together.

– We had dinner in the Tonttula of Heavenly White and we talked back then that if we ever got married, it is here, the wedding couple revealed to Iltalehti in the summer of 2019.

In 2023, Sievinen wished Valentine’s Day with his loving publication.

– Happy Valentine’s Day.

In his divorce, Sievinen warmly wrote about the children of his spouse.

– I was also involved in growing and watching Mary’s children’s growth. Daughter from under 2 years of age to junior high and boy from Eskar to high school. The daughter became a racing swimmer and the boy has a talented high school student. All our younger children are like siblings and the best of each other.

Jani Sievinen said in the summer on her Instagram account that she had all her own children a few times a year.
