She has already experienced sexual assaults before.
The holder of the title 'Miss Russia - 2022' Anna Linnikova experienced a terrible incident during her trip to Bali. Linnikova stated that she was kidnapped by an 'eastern man' who held her at a villa, took her phone, and attempted to rape her. Thanks to her resourcefulness and determination, Anna was able to escape captivity and immediately reported to the local police.
'The laws here are strict. Either he will be deported for 10 years, or he will serve time in prison,' she said, emphasizing that she does not intend to silence what happened. According to the model, such cases are far from rare. Similar incidents have happened to several of her friends. 'Take care of yourselves and learn self-defense,' Linnikova concluded.
It is interesting: Anna has long spoken out on the topic of violence. She underwent therapy for many years to 'stop falling in love with terrible people.' She cites her stepfather as an example, about whom she cannot say anything good. She also advocates for the adoption of a domestic violence law in Russia, noting: 'Many women are dying from domestic abuse.' For her, this is not an abstraction, but personal experience: in 2021, she ended a toxic relationship, calling it 'murderous for the psyche and body.'
Linnikova's personal life is a series of dramas and disappointments. In 2023, she announced her engagement to American Jackson Hinkle, whom she introduced to the public as loving and caring. But soon they broke up. 'He is a hollow and narcissistic person,' Anna wrote, later revealing that she faced psychological pressure and physical violence. After the breakup, she returned to Russia and sought an apartment in Moscow with the help of her followers.
In addition, Linnikova has repeatedly found herself at the center of scandals. In the summer of 2025, she harshly commented on the marriage of Anastasia Kostenko and Dmitry Tarasov, calling it 'karma for destroying Olga Buzova's family.' In response, Kostenko insulted her, calling her a 'barking Mоська and a bug.'
And in 2024, Anna experienced an attack by a taxi driver in St. Petersburg: the driver insulted her and grabbed her arms. Contacting support services yielded no results, and she took the conflict public in search of an apology and compensation.
Despite all the trials, Anna does not lose faith in happiness. After attending a wedding a couple of years ago, she wrote that she dreams of falling in love mutually and creating a strong family. But now her approach has become rational: 'I would rather marry late or never than marry wrong.'
