Yulia Pugacheva: No regrets dumping tennis for Instagram

 

Easy does it, appears to be the new lexicon for former tennis star Yulia Pugacheva after she discovered that earning money on Instagram is easier than sweating on the tennis courts.

pocketing about £14k a month the Russian has turned back on tennis for good and is comfortable the way things have turned out for her.

Pugacheva decided to ditch her athletic job to become an influencer earning a fortune each month.

Since childhood, the 29-year-old has played tennis and sport was always her passion in life.

But after a serious injury, Yulia was forced to leave the courts to pursue a different career.

Since then she has been working on social media where she pockets $20,000 (around £14,000) a month from her sexy snaps.

Now she lives a lavish lifestyle in Miami, US, and has already starred in a car campaign at Pugachev Luxury Rentals. She said: “I realised that making money on the internet is very easy.

“I have earned a profit of $20,000 (£14,000) a month by just working on social media.”

With the amount Yulia now earns, she has managed to buy cars and get into property.

The sexy model added: “I have never achieved this just by playing tennis, it is a very devalued profession.”

She boasts 471,000 followers on Instagram where she posts updates of her family life and marriage.

The Russian model welcomed her baby earlier last year and began taking snaps almost immediately.

She revealed: “I divide my time taking care of my daughter and family for my abs. I do not fail to do at least 200 sit-ups a day.

“That’s how I managed to have my body from before pregnancy. Healthy eating is also a great ally.”
