Instagram / @kristinapimenova 'Some years ago, I posted a picture of little Kristina on the beach in the Maldives hugging her three soft toys and laughing,' Glikeriya said in a 2014 interview with MailOnline. 'She was holding all her toys in front of her chest and hugging them, and you know what comments I got to this picture?' ''Oh, she is covering her breasts because she thinks she has something to hide!' Can you believe it? I think people who post something like this have serious psychological problems,' she continued.
