Lena Marinković surname change dispute

Overview

Lena Marinković has officially changed her surname to Tržan, adopting the name of her mother, singer Goca Tržan. Lena announced the decision via social media, specifically TikTok, expressing gratitude to her mother by asking, ‘Where would I be without her.’

The name change has caused significant family friction. Lena’s father, Ivan Marinković, criticized the decision, describing the relationship between him and his daughter as ‘irreparable’ and stating there is no possibility of reconciliation. He characterized the situation as a ‘shame’ and suggested the move undermined his role in her life.

In subsequent interviews, Ivan Marinković expressed disappointment, suggesting the surname change was a long-term plan orchestrated by Goca Tržan to erase his presence from Lena’s life. While he denied responsibility for the fractured relationship, blaming his former partner instead, reports indicate that Lena has not seen her father for ten years. Goca Tržan has addressed the family dynamics, noting that she has never prevented contact between Lena and her father.
