Although hatchets flew between Jolanta and Mantas for some time, Jolanta is open – despite how their relationship unfolded, this period was one of the most beautiful in her life.
„For 8 years, it was a wonderful life with a loved one. I loved him madly, I truly loved him, I was very happy, I encouraged him greatly, I gave my whole self,” J. Naruševičiūtė openly recounted on the podcast “Uncomfortable Zone.”
Having experienced the pain and sorrow of betrayal, the woman still doesn’t understand why they couldn’t just sit down, talk, and separate peacefully.
„We always talked about this. Look, if something like this happens – be a human, let’s sit down and talk. Anything can happen, and I can fall in love too. Why can only one side be blamed? It happened, life happened, and that’s it. I fell in love, I saw. I will endure everything, maybe I’ll be left with a great grievance, but you can’t tear things apart and lie like that. Imagine how I lived for a year when his mistress was next to me, pretending to be a friend,” she spoke openly.
Recalling the beginning of their friendship, the famous woman says she still doesn’t understand how a connection formed so quickly between her and Mantas. She emphasizes that the connection was mutual, although other rumors have recently appeared in the public sphere.
„Now, when I rethink it, I don’t understand how he swept me off my feet so quickly. I wasn’t some fool, I’m an older woman, I have two children. He swept me off my feet like that – I fell so deeply in love. Everyone around saw it: I was burning so brightly, I saw nothing else, I only saw him. I can’t say it was only from my side. I won’t lie – we had a great love,” the famous woman mused.
When asked if the 22-year age difference hindered their relationship, the woman said it was no obstacle at all.
„We both talked about it – the age difference really wasn’t felt. I felt like such a woman… In 2019, my health was a bit disturbed, I had gained weight, I was looking for what was happening, I cured all my problems. But every day I heard: ‘I love you just the way you are.’ I even wanted to have stomach surgery, but both he and his children told me ‘Don’t you dare – you are my most wonderful’,” Jolanta recounted, remembering her relationship with M. Vygantas.
On the podcast “Uncomfortable Zone,” J. Naruševičiūtė also showed Mantas’ handwritten letters to her, which contained an open confession of love. One of the letters read: “Thank you for being in my life, and now in my existing family. I would have sacrificed everything much earlier for such a pure, wonderful, and real life. Because I truly, sincerely, and endlessly love you with our adopted children and our family.”
Reading the letter, Jolanta is convinced that Mantas loved her, and the letters prove it, although in public the man claimed otherwise.
„I have a lot of such letters. In autumn, it really hurt – I won’t lie. When he was sitting with her, as he himself said, his ‘first and last love,’ even though I was his third love and she was his fourth, he publicly declared that he had never loved me.” I burst into tears, my daughter was at home, and I asked her: “Did you hear that?” – Jolanta spoke openly.
However, later, according to her, Mantas justified himself by saying that the letters were merely a desire to fit in.
„I have many of them. And when you’re told publicly that he never loved you… Man, what are you doing? In one letter, it’s very clearly stated – ‘I wanted to fit in’,” the interviewee shared.
The performer also spoke openly about the day she found out Mantas had cheated on her with Milda. According to her, she herself caught them hiding.
„I knew there was a mistress because I caught them. I caught them in a dark room. The person you sleep with in one bed, who caresses you, and you catch him – pants down, in the dark. She quickly jumps away when you enter. What were you doing? Playing checkers?” the woman said.

According to Jolanta, even while she was still with Mantas, Milda persistently tried to be involved in their lives and relationship.
„She stalked us. If we bought tickets to the theater, she would buy them and go too. If we performed somewhere – she would follow. You know, since I don’t do that, I didn’t think about it. Many people around me asked, ‘Didn’t you see?’ She just climbed on, and he couldn’t resist. They told me that I stopped praising him, I stopped adoring him, and she started adoring him,” the interviewee smiled.
Airport Scandal and the Letter
On the podcast “Uncomfortable Zone,” J. Naruševičiūtė spoke about a letter she received that caused her strong emotional shock and, as she herself says, she narrowly avoided ending up in the hospital. The woman was shocked by the content of the letter and the accusations made against her in it.
„This is an official letter that almost gave me a heart attack. This is a letter from a non-existent lawyer, because in reality, he is a real estate agent. I received it from that friend, his current love. In it, I am accused of not giving them peace since February 8, 2024 – of stalking them. Although at that time we were still a family – we lived together, we were still performing concerts,” the woman openly shared.
The woman also revealed more shocking details – Mantas secretly recorded conversations in her home, which he wanted to use against Jolanta, and he even involved her children in this.
„While we were living together for the last six months in my home, conversations were being recorded – mine, my children’s, the family’s. I didn’t know that. I only now understood what was happening. They were trying to provoke me. Everything started when he left for Lithuania. A very cruel attack began, cruel humiliation, because they wanted to make me out to be mentally ill. Which he also mentioned in all the shows, that I am mentally ill. He even invited my children into the yard and tried to influence them to say that I am mentally unwell. There was such a plan, but it failed,” she stated.
However, even after all the arguments, their relationship did not end. In October 2024, when Mantas returned to Lithuania, in January 2025, they reconciled again, unknown to anyone. According to Jolanta, as soon as Milda left back for the United Kingdom, Mantas kept returning to her life.
„Some time passed, a few months, and what do you think? The man wanted to come back. In January, we reconciled. Only no one knew about it. We corresponded, we talked – our longest conversation lasted even nine hours. And she would fly back and forth. As soon as she left, my phone would immediately be flooded with messages,” the performer said on “Uncomfortable Zone.”
While corresponding, they also agreed to meet when Jolanta returned to Lithuania in February for a concert. However, this return turned into a big scandal. It turned out that Milda also flew to Lithuania on the same day, just half an hour later.
„We were reconciling – love returned. He knew I was flying in February because a concert was waiting. He said we would meet, but 4-5 days before the scandal – I was blocked again. I fly in, and perhaps it’s irony of fate, because the car I rented wasn’t brought to me – it’s cold, I’m standing outside, waiting. I see him coming, completely flustered. I say: ‘Are you here for me?’ He says: ‘No.’ I say: ‘For her?’ He says: ‘Yes, but don’t try to take pictures.’ He constantly threatened me with law enforcement. And he didn’t allow photos because she was still living with her husband, a married woman. She just flies to Lithuania for decoration. I was shocked… Terribly shocked. Imagine how I feel, I just forgave, completely hurt, and everything starts all over again,” she stated.
Indeed, the scandal at Kaunas airport, where a conflict arose between Milda and Jolanta, became widely known.
Videos showed both women exchanging biting remarks, and finally Jolanta spat at the camera. However, according to Jolanta, this conflict was carefully planned by Milda and Mantas themselves.
„No one knows this yet. Everything was planned. Mantas then ran away, of course, because her (Milda’s – author’s note) brother came to pick her up. I enter the airport again, and then she comes out with a camera. I tried to talk to her, but that wasn’t filmed, she sent me away, I walk, and she follows with the camera. She just got on my nerves because I was severely affected before that. When she left, many people appeared. They gave me their contacts in case law enforcement got involved. They said that she was standing in the baggage claim area, and everyone heard that they were discussing how to provoke me. After arriving, she didn’t leave immediately, but consulted with him on how to act, where to wait, to call her brother to come pick her up, so that no one would see that he picked her up, because she has a husband,” she recounted.
However, even after this widely publicized conflict, as soon as Milda left, Mantas again tried to contact Jolanta: “After 2 weeks, when the lady left, calls again – I love you, I want to reconcile.”
