Life

Rokvić was born into an ethnic Serb family in Kolunić, near Bosanski Petrovac, SR Bosnia and Herzegovina, SFR Yugoslavia (modern-day Bosnia and Herzegovina). At the age of 14 he moved to Belgrade. He studied electrical engineering.[1]

He is married to Slavica who is a nurse, and together they have two sons. One son, Nikola Rokvić, is also a recording artist (and appeared as a contestant in season 3 of Survivor Srbija), the second is Marko Rokvić and he is singer too.[2] He also has a son from one of his previous relationships named Dario.[3]

Controversies

A number of his colleagues accused Marinko Rokvić that he worked as a sex worker. Miloš Bojanić was the first who made these claims, [4]and they were later verified by Zorica Marković. [5] Rokvić was also involved in a number of physical fights, [6] and Nada Topčagić was one of his victims. [7]
