The fear of the husband having a second family in the Russian Federation may lead women to have more children in order to guarantee a tighter family connection (Olimova and Bosk, 2003) or to facilitate coming along with her husband. Even when both spouses migrate to die Russian Federation, this does not ensure diat die marriage will last; facing the challenge of a lack of intimacy due to crowded accommodations, some spouses get divorced (Kalandarov, 2012). First, divorce can transpire without the existence of a second family, following long-lasting separation and/or a lack of tight connections between the spouses.
