Darcey shared rare details about her marriage to Frank on season 3 of Darcey & Stacey. “I was married for eight years with my ex-husband,” Darcey said. Frank is the father of Darcey’s daughters, Aniko Bollok and Aspen Bollok.
“We dated for two years prior. I got married in New York City. It was a beautiful wedding. It was like a fairytale,” she added. “In the beginning of our relationship, we talked about our dreams, our goals, our aspirations and he did some, but lacked a lot of it when it really mattered, lacked the motivation at times financially, to get ahead.”
What Is Darcey Silva’s Ex-Husband Frank Bollok’s Job?
Frank is the co-owner of The Twilight Lodge, a bed and breakfast in Haines Falls, New York, according to his Facebook page.
However, he had previous career aspirations. The former couple were still married when Darcey and her twin sister, Stacey Silva, filmed a pilot for their now-defunct 2010 reality show, The Twin Life. At the time, Darcey and Stacey lived in their father Michael Silva‘s house in Connecticut with Darcey’s husband, Frank, Stacey’s husband, Goran Vasic, Darcey and Frank’s daughters, Aniko and Aspen, and Stacey and Goran’s sons, Parker and Mateo. Stacey and Goran got divorced around the same time as Darcey and Frank.
“My husband, Frank, is a new up and coming rapper,” Darcey said in the teaser, and Frank referred to her as his No. 1 fan. “We met in New York, and you know, the rest is history.”
Later in the teaser, Frank brought cameras along as he produced the Twin Life theme song. When talking to the cameras about his career, Frank added, “If you could do a job that you really love and pay the bills, you found one of the meanings of life right there.”
How Is Frank Bollok Similar to Georgi Rusev?
In a scene that aired on season 3 of Darcey & Stacey, Darcey’s cousin, Shannon Allen, drew a comparison from Frank to Darcey’s fiancé at the time, Georgi Rusev.
