Vodianova is a founder of the Naked Heart Foundation, a philanthropic organisation that strives to provide a safe and inspiring environment in which to play for every child living in urban Russia and to help support families raising children with disabilities. [42] [43] [44] Natalia's sister Oksana lives with autism. Vodianova drew attention to the problem of the rights of disabled people in Russia when her sister was asked to leave a cafe in Nizhny Novgorod because "she scares customers". [45]

She was inspired to found the charity by the Beslan tragedy. Vodianova's idea was to support children who survived the event by enjoying playing as a distraction from their psychological trauma. The organisation built its first playground park in 2006 in Nizhny Novgorod. Several more have since been set up by the charity, including one in Beslan itself. [46]

Vodianova also lends her support to a number of other philanthropic causes, such as the (Bugaboo)RED campaign, an initiative to help eliminate AIDS in Africa. [47] That same year, Vodianova became an ambassador for Hear the World, a global campaign that seeks to raise awareness of the topic of hearing and hearing loss and to promote the issue of good hearing all over the world. [48]

She is a spokesperson for the Tiger Trade Campaign, an alliance of 38 organisations "to bring back wild tigers by stopping trade in tiger parts and products from all sources." In an interview supporting the campaign, Vodianova said: "I'm proud that Russia, my country, is home to the most magnificent of animals, the wild Siberian tiger. Today, it is up to us to protect the tiger and its home. Fewer than 350 Siberian tigers remain in the wild, and no more than 3,400 tigers survive anywhere in the world. Unless we act now, we will see the extinction of the wild tiger within our lifetime." [49] [50]

In 2015, together with Timon Afinsky, Vodianova co-founded the digital app Elbi, which allows people to donate money with a "Love Button", create content, send messages, and vote for charitable purposes. [51] The app was promoted by the Clinton Global Initiative Commitment in 2016 and supported by Joanna Shields, Bebo co-founder Michael Birch, Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales, Huffington Post co-founder Arianna Huffington, Mind Candy founder Acton Smith, designer Diane von Furstenberg, co-founder of Lastminute.com and Made.com Brent Hoberman, as well as the founder and CEO of Illumination Entertainment, Chris Meledandri. [52] [53]

Other projects

Special Olympics

Vodianova is a member of the international board of directors for the Special Olympics and supported the 2014 European Games and the 2015 World Games. [54]

United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Goodwill Ambassador

In February 2021, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) appointed Vodianova as a goodwill ambassador.

Awards

In November 2010, Harper's Bazaar awarded Vodianova with the Inspiration of the Year Award, given in recognition of her philanthropic efforts. [55]

In April 2013, she was honoured with the Inspiration Award at the fourth annual DVF Awards. The award is given to women "who have demonstrated leadership, strength and courage in the face of adversity, and who use their influence to effect positive change." [56] The same year, she was also the recipient of Harper's Bazaar's Philanthropist of the Year Award. [57]

On 10 November 2014, Vodianova was one of the honored 2014 Glamour Woman of the Year for her contribution and philanthropy as The Voice for Children. [8] The ceremony was held at Carnegie Hall, with Arianna Huffington presenting the award to Vodianova.

Personal life

Vodianova met Justin Portman (b. 1969), half-brother of the 10th Viscount Portman and son of Edward Portman, 9th Viscount Portman, a British property heir, at a Paris dinner in 2001. They married in November 2001 when she was 8 months pregnant. In September 2002, over nine months after registering the marriage in the UK, they had a wedding ceremony in St. Petersburg, where Vodianova wore a dress designed by Tom Ford. [58] [59] They have three children: two sons born in 2001 and 2007, and a daughter born in 2006. [60] Vodianova and Portman announced their separation in June 2011 [61] and they divorced that year. [11]

Following her separation from Portman, Vodianova began a relationship with Antoine Arnault, son of LVMH founder Bernard Arnault and the CEO of luxury brand Berluti. [62] The couple have two sons, born in 2014 and 2016. [63] [64] Vodianova announced their engagement on 31 December 2019. [65] The COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of their 27 June 2020 wedding at Saint-Pierre d'Hautvillers Abbey, and the couple officially married on 21 June 2020 at a Paris city council. [66] The couple have an apartment in Paris. [67]
