It appears that she spent some of her holidays in her birth country, although, we cannot confirm this.
After high school, Moussa joined the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York. To attend this internationally recognised college for design, fashion, art, communications, and business, she had to go to the United States. This is how she found herself living in the US.

Not long after, she also took up a job as a photo editor for Maxim Russia. This is a multinational fashion brand and magazine with branches in Germany, Russia, the UK, and many more countries. Working at Maxim and having schooled abroad afforded her the opportunity to frequently travel to the UK.

Her Instagram page, @elenamoussa, only contains breathtaking pictures of herself and friends during trips and outdoor occasions. She has 15.9K followers and follows only 635 users, including many popular fashion brands and magazines.
By contrast, her husband spreads his political thoughts on his verified Instagram and Twitter accounts: @realgreggutfeld and @greggutfeld respectively.
Greg Gutfeld
He finished from Junípero Serra High School and earned a bachelor’s degree in English from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1987.
They had met when Gutfeld was an editor for Maxim magazine in the UK between 2004 and 2006. They were married in 2004, not long after they started dating. Here is a bit more about Moussa’s husband.
Gutfeld started his career working as an intern at The American Spectator, as an assistant to conservative writer R. Emmett Tyrrell. He later became a staff writer at Prevention magazine and edited various Rodale Press magazines.
He joined Men’s Health as a staff writer in 1995 and was editor-in-chief by 1999, four years later. In 2005, he was one of the first contributors to the newly formed blog, The Huffington Post, and left in 2008.
However, by 2007, he was already hosting the late-night talk show “Red Eye” on the Fox News Channel. In 2011, he also added co-host and panellist on the Fox News political talk show “The Five” to his resume. When Gutfeld left “Red Eye” in 2015, he got his own Fox News late-night show called “The Greg Gutfeld Show”. The show became known as just “Gutfeld!” in 2021 and it is available on YouTube.
Additionally, he has appeared as a guest on “Coffee with Scott Adams” and “The Adam Carolla Show”.
He was recently caught in a controversy after he supported former US President Donald Trump’s election fraud claims. Gutfeld had advocated for an investigation into voting in some states.
“That’s why you have to do the recount. And all of the irregularities going one direction,” he was quoted as saying by Meditate. “We were told that there was no evidence, and now that there is evidence, now we are being told, well, yeah, there is evidence, but not enough evidence. […] So it’s not about fraud, it’s about trust. […] So we can’t trust the media. We can’t even trust the FBI. We can’t trust anybody.”

However, we found another blog, Tuko, which claims that Greg Gutfeld earns an annual salary of $2 million. Other blogs also place him very low in the pecking order of highest-earning Fox News anchors. This makes the earlier claim of a $7 million annual salary seem far-fetched.
Conclusion
Elena Moussa is a former Russian model and photo editor for the magazine, Maxim Russia. Since leaving the company, she has set up her own called Moussa Project. She is popularly known as Greg Gutfeld’s first wife.
