Adriana Sklenaříková (formerly Karembeu; born 17 September 1971) is a Slovak fashion model and actress who lives and works in France. She is a former Guinness record holder for the longest legs among female models (at almost 1.24 m). Sklenaříková was born in Brezno to parents Miroslav Sklenařík and Zlatica Gazdiková. Her mother was a Slovak doctor, while her father was a Czech engineer originally from Vsetín, where her Czech surname originates. She also has a younger sister named Natalia, who works as a lawyer in Paris. At the time of Sklenaříková's birth, her parents were both students, and she was thus raised by her grandparents until she was six years old. Sklenaříková has gone on to comment that her father was cold and distant with her throughout her upbringing, and that he preferred her sister. After completing her secondary education, Sklenaříková enrolled in Charles University in Prague to study medicine. In 1994, her third year of studies, Sklenaříková was discovered by a French modeling agency after competing in a beauty pageant. In 1998, she was hired as one of the models for the Wonderbra campaign. In the United States, she modeled for Victoria's Secret. In 2005 she featured in the Channel 5 TV documentary Bra Wars: Boom or Bust In 2007 she was the host of Top Model on Métropole 6. In 2008 she participated in Rendez-vous en terre inconnue on France 2. In 2011 she was a contestant in the first season of the French Dancing with the Stars. She was one of the contestants during the first season of Danse avec les stars. With her partner Julien Brugel, she reached the semi-final and finished in the 4th position.

Sklenarikova met French football player Christian Karembeu on a flight from Paris to Milan in 1998, and they were married in December that year. On 9 March 2011, in an interview to French magazine Paris Match, Adriana revealed that she was separating from her husband. She stated that the causes for the separation were the couple's constant exposure in the media and their "hectic lifestyle" as well as him being "upset to see photographs of [her] with other men appearing in the press and speculation that [she] had a lover". Christian refused questions from the media about the divorce, stating that he would not comment in public about his private life. In June 2014, she married Armenian businessman Aram Ohanian, her boyfriend of three years. Their wedding was held in Monaco, and was attended by numerous film and show business stars; in August 2018 Adriana became the mother of a daughter named Nina. In December 2022, Adriana announced her second divorce from Ohanian. Source: Article "Adriana Sklenaříková" from Wikipedia in English, licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0.
