Adriana Sklenarikova

Adriana Sklenarikova (born on 17 September 1971) is a Slovak fashion model and actress. Also she is a former Guinness record holder for the longest legs among female models. Her legs (from the hip to heels) are 49.25 inches (125 cm).

Adriana Sklenarikova was born in Brezno, a town in central Slovakia.

Having originally studied medicine in Prague, Sklenarikova gave up her studies to become a fashion model at the age of 26. She was hired as one of the models for the Wonderbra, and she was popular in Europe for her Wonderbra billboards.

In the United States, she modeled for Victoria’s Secret.

On 22 December 1998, Sklenarikova married French football player Christian Karembeu. They had met while they were both traveling on a flight from Paris to Milan in 1996. Their marriage took place only months after the national soccer team of France had won the 1998 World Cup.

On 9 March 2011, in an interview to French magazine Paris Match, Adriana revealed that she’s separating from her husband. Adriana stated that the causes for the separation were the couple’s constant exposure in the media and their “hectic lifestyle” as well as being “upset to see photographs of her with other men appearing in the press and speculation that she had a lover”. Christian Karembeu refused questions from the media about the divorce, stating that he would not comment in public about his private life.
