Nina Yevgeniyevna Tukhachevskaya (Russian: Нина Евгениевна Тухачевская) was the second wife of Mikhail Tukhachevsky (whose first wife committed suicide). In 1941 she was apparently arrested and executed. She gave birth to his daughter Svetlana shortly after their marriage in 1924. However their marriage has been seen as a marriage of convenience instead of love. It is said he doted on Svetlana to give her the love that he did not give her mother. She allegedly went insane prior to her execution and had to be deported in a straight jacket.
