Olga Ushakova with her husband Adam

Olga Ushakova is raising two daughters of the same age: 12-year-old Daria and 11-year-old Ksenia. The older girl was diagnosed with neurological disorders resembling high-functioning autism. Olga admitted: “Raising special children in our country is like surviving on a desert island.” The TV presenter almost didn’t talk about the girls’ father and didn’t mention his name, however, that her daughters bear his last name.

Olga lived in a civil marriage for several years with a much older man, having met him in Ukraine. After her lover moved to Moscow, the TV presenter followed him. According to her reviews, the man communicates well with his daughters and helps her raise them.

Olga began dating her current husband, restaurateur Adam, in October 2013. The TV presenter carefully guards her personal life and does not say anything about her husband. It is known that Adam does not live in Russia most of the time. The couple got married on July 17, 2017 in Cyprus. Adam found it before the wedding mutual language with Olga's daughters. “They have fun together. The husband generally handles children skillfully, and all the children, familiar and unfamiliar, always circle around him,” noted the TV presenter.

How did you meet your husband?

We met about four years ago in London. My friend and I were standing in line in the dressing room of a popular restaurant, and Adam and his friend did not notice the line and approached from the other side. Fairly hungry and irritated by the slowness of the cloakroom attendant, I called out to the “insolent people.” They apologized profusely and profusely. And then, according to my husband, he watched me from the side all evening and, when we got ready to go home, he realized that he couldn’t let me leave... And now we are husband and wife, although initially it was difficult to imagine that we In principle, we can have at least some kind of relationship. We are both too complex people, and besides, all the circumstances were against us, the most important of which was distance.

How did Adam propose to you?

For several years we rushed between two cities, arranged dates on neutral territory. And at one of them, in Vienna, Adam proposed to me. In principle, we have long discussed further development our relationship and came to the conclusion that it was enough to fly in the skies both literally and figuratively, it was time to create a family, a hearth, a nest - in general, something earthly and tangible, and I didn’t think much about the topic of engagement. First, Adam had to ask the children for my hand, then my dad. And all this was so touching and important for me that, it would seem, nothing more was needed. But my beloved chose the moment when I least expected the proposal, and got down on one knee in the royal scenery - in the park of Belvedere Castle.

How many guests were there?

We decided to invite only the closest relatives: parents, brothers and sisters with their families - 18 people in total. Although the original plan called for a big wedding. That’s what the groom wanted, and I didn’t seem to mind. I love big holidays and I am happy to arrange them. But this time I wanted something different. Having started organizing, I realized that this wedding would not be about us. I wanted something soulful, intimate, to slowly enjoy every moment.

Why did you decide to have your wedding in Cyprus, and in the hottest time?

On one of our first trips we went to Cyprus and stayed in a very beautiful place- in a private villa complex with beautiful garden. In the evenings we sat in the gazebo overlooking the sea. And somehow everything was so perfect, elegant and romantic that the thought involuntarily crossed my mind: it would be great to have a wedding here.

As for the date, everything is much less romantic - we squeezed the wedding into our work schedules and combined it with a short summer vacation. But already within the resulting interval, they chose a beautiful date: 07/17/17. Adam's birthday is on the 17th and mine is on the 7th. We thought it would be symbolic. But it’s really hot on the island at this time, so we scheduled the ceremony for the evening, literally an hour and a half before sunset. It's funny that we initially chose 16:00. Then, a few days before the wedding, I arrived at the place and every day I went to the beach at a certain time: first at four o’clock, then at five, at half past six - and finally, experimentally, I found out that six o’clock in the evening would be ideal.

What were the decor, floristry, music, food, entertainment like?

When celebrating a wedding on the beach, the most obvious thing seems to be to use a nautical theme. But this is exactly what I categorically did not want - no starfish, ropes or anchors. The only reference to the sea were the shells on which the calligrapher wrote the names of the guests for seating. To describe the style, in a conversation with the decorator, I ultimately came up with the following definition: a wealthy fishing village. Real boats, which now served as decoration for the garden, fit perfectly into this concept. We dressed the children in blue linen overalls and loose white shirts, and completed the look with straw hats. For other guests, the dress code was limited to a certain color scheme- there was a ban on bright colors. I wanted the brightest colors to be the natural blue surface of the sea, olive trees and pale pink sunset. And in general, we tried to use natural scenery to the maximum. So we abandoned the classic altar.

I initially knew that I didn’t want a flower arch - I always feel incredibly sorry for the flowers that are left to die immediately after Mendelssohn’s march subsides. We chose two trees that form a natural arch and decorated them a little with white bougainvillea - it blooms at this time. The rest of the flowers were ordered from Israel - all within our pastel-powdery range. Although I must say that the local florists know their business and all the compositions delighted us for several days after the wedding. By the way, our team turned out to be international. I knew who my photographer would be even before I got ready to get married. Elina and I met just while filming for Wedding - I was filming as a bridesmaid. The photographer, in turn, recommended a videographer. I found the organizer in Moscow also through a recommendation. It was important to me that we were on the same wavelength and not far from each other. Cyprus has its own criteria for a good wedding: the main thing is to invite as many guests as possible and feed everyone well. They don't pay much attention to details. Therefore, even Cypriot contractors are our former compatriots. Only the musicians were native Cypriots. We invited a violin duo for the formal part and a jazz band for dinner.

Almost the most important question: How did you choose the dress?

The dress added another accent to the overall style. I chose it shortly before the appointed wedding day completely by accident. It was buried in a pile of other fluffy dresses. I saw only a piece of lace and immediately realized that this was what I was looking for. Real Lush Wedding Dress with corset and train. But at the same time it did not look pretentious at all. Cypriot style lace fit perfectly into the wedding concept and even gave it a new direction. We added lace to the decor and ordered personalized napkins made from the famous Lefkari lace as souvenirs for the guests. This is an ancient local craft, which is even protected by UNESCO. We also prepared lace parasols and wooden fans with our initials for the guests.

It took us no more than an hour and a half to create the image, and I was ready even before the groom. True, right before going out, force majeure happened: one of the bridesmaids caught her heel on my dress. The sound of the fabric cracking made my heart skip a beat. The hole in the top layer of lace turned out to be huge. But I decided for myself that this was for luck. They mended the hole right on me, and, in fact, no one noticed anything. One of the organizers later complimented my self-control, saying that some people would have postponed the wedding after this.

What was the most important thing at this wedding?

Atmosphere! She was perfect, exactly what we wanted. Everything was moderately solemn, but nevertheless very family-like. Absolutely everyone felt comfortable.

What was your most touching and emotional moment?

Our first eye contact with my future husband. He stood at the “altar”, and I walked towards him through the garden on my father’s arm. At this moment, the violinists tore our hearts out with our favorite Coldplay melody. It was a fabulous moment.

What do you remember most?

To be honest, it’s hard to pick just one. It was like one tune, well played from start to finish. First, a very touching solemn part, vows, rings, congratulations from loved ones. Then a short romantic photo session at sunset. At this time, guests were treated to drinks, fruits and light snacks at the lemonade bar, which we organized on real, very heavy barrels. I remember how much work it took to get them there. Then we all sat down at the table, speeches and toasts began. Both families have a good sense of humor, so we laughed until we cried. Since we have an international family, the wedding turned out to be a kind of mix of European and Russian traditions. Due to the fact that the company was small, any games went with a bang, since everyone was involved - a shoe battle, a dance battle and other entertainment kept the mood high until the very end. Naturally, the newlyweds also had their first dance. It was a delicate moment because we didn't have the opportunity to rehearse. Therefore, the day before I showed the groom literally a few movements. And to disguise our clumsiness, I put together a slide show, which, along with music, was displayed on the big screen during the dance. As a result, everything worked out surprisingly well for us, and it even became a little disappointing that the photos drew some of the attention to themselves, while we danced very wildly. The final touch, of course, was a cake and a small fireworks display. But even after that, no one wanted to leave, and we sat on the beach and chatted for a long time.

Biography, life story of Olga Ushakova

Olga Ushakova is a Russian TV presenter.

Childhood and youth

Olya was born in Crimea on April 7, 1982. Her father was a military man. Because of the work of the head of the family, the Ushakovs constantly moved from place to place - they lived either in Russia or in Ukraine. They stayed in one city for a maximum of six months. For any other child, such frequent changes would be stressful, but for the strong and active Olya, this was not the case at all. On the contrary, Olya grew up as a very sociable girl; she managed to make friends everywhere. At the same time, she also managed to study well. It is worth noting that Olya went to school at the age of six. And she graduated, by the way, with a gold medal.

It cannot be said that Ushakova’s childhood was cloudless. When she migrated from Ukraine to Russia and back, other peers often teased her - either as a katsapka or as a Ukrainian girl. Olya could only stand up for herself with the help of physical strength. The girl's parents were called to school more than once for fighting. But for Olya herself, this was a plus - careless classmates, those who called her names, began to be afraid of her, and in a teenage environment this is different from respect.

After school, Olga Ushakova entered the V.N. Kharkov National University. Karazin and successfully graduated from it.

Career

After receiving a diploma higher education Olga Ushakova went into private business with her then boyfriend. Already at the age of 23, Ushakova took the post of head of the Ukrainian branch trading company, whose activities consisted of promoting European brands.

Very soon Olga moved to Moscow. In the capital of Russia, Ushakova seriously thought about what she should do next. The girl suddenly remembered her childhood hobby. A long time ago, while still a little girl, Olya loved to pretend to be a television announcer, using any available objects as a microphone. Ushakova’s lover advised her to take a risk and make her childhood dream come true. And Olya made up her mind.

In 2004, Olga Ushakova came to Russian television, Channel One, as a trainee. Without a specialized education, Olga began to fight her way to fame with her inherent tenacity and perseverance. As a result of long and difficult studies, she managed to get rid of the Ukrainian accent and learn to speak clearly and coherently, as required by the norms Russian television. In combat (in the sense of working tasks) she learned to write news stories.

For nine years, Olga hosted the “News” program, then she began appearing in the “Good Day” program, and in 2014, already an experienced professional, Ushakova took the place of TV presenter in the “Good Morning” show. A year later, Olga received the well-deserved TEFI award.

Personal life

Olga never mentioned the name of her first husband (according to some sources, this marriage was not registered). The only thing she always told the public was that her first husband was wonderful person, a real support that every woman dreams of. It is known that the chosen one was somewhat older than Lena.

From her first husband, Ushakova gave birth to two daughters of the same age. Daria was born first, Ksenia was born later. Dasha is a girl with special needs. It so happened that Ushakova’s daughters were born in the same year (Olya found out that Ksyusha would be born when Dasha was only three months old), so the sisters went to school together in the same class.

Daria and Ksenia are active and versatile girls. Since childhood, they became interested in music, choreography, ballet, horse riding, and chess. When asked what they would like to become when they grow up, Dasha answered that she would be a translator, and Ksyusha – a designer or singer.

In the summer of 2017, Olga Ushakova married restaurateur Adam. A beautiful wedding ceremony took place in Cyprus. And in January 2018, the lovers delighted the public by announcing that they would have a baby at the end of April. In this regard, Ushakova said, she is temporarily leaving work and going on well-deserved maternity leave.

The morning is good if it begins with good thoughts and the charming Olga Ushakova. This charming TV presenter of the Good Morning program on Channel One has been charging TV viewers with positivity for several years now. Looking at Olga, it’s hard to believe that this young woman has two daughters of the same age – Dasha and Ksyusha, who have already entered third grade. The TV presenter told us about her methods of raising her daughters and how to become a happy mother.

– Olga, you manage to successfully combine family and career, and at the same time you look so gorgeous that you serve as an excellent example for many mothers. How do you do this?

– My priority has always been and is children. I was in no hurry to return from maternity leave, although I understood that on television “a holy place is never empty” and in a couple of years you could lose your position. Of course, I love my job and value it, but I know that you can change your job, you can even start from scratch, you can try yourself in new areas, but you can’t turn grown-up children into babies and you can’t get back all the lost precious moments, and raise there will be no chance again. Therefore, if I have to choose, I have no doubts.

Fortunately, life doesn’t often present me with such a choice, so I manage to combine everything successfully. I come home after work in the morning, that is, I already pick up the children from school myself. Due to the flexible schedule, it is possible to plan a weekend for children's holidays and go somewhere with them. We often go to different events together. There is also enough personal time now, the daughters are growing up, they spend half the day at school, they have more and more interests of their own, sometimes friends come over to play for the whole day, and then the mother can go to the gym or hairdresser with a clear conscience.

– Most mothers do not immediately decide to have a second baby, remembering the difficulties that arise in the first months and years. Were you planning on having your second child so soon?

– The key point here is “remembering the difficulties,” but I didn’t even have time to get scared - I became pregnant with my second child when my first child was only 3 months old. I won’t say what we planned, but we assumed such a possibility, that is, we left this question, so to speak, to the will of fate. Fate turned out to be favorable to us, and we had another wonderful daughter. I call it “the happiest accident” of my life.

– The first pregnancy flew by unnoticed, I worked until the seventh month, then went on vacation, and then immediately went on maternity leave. Toxicosis tormented me a little; it was quite unpleasant when the symptoms came on early in the morning, when you were broadcasting a newscast. I carried with me a lemon cut into slices. When everything has passed, all that remains is to enjoy your condition. I was active, didn’t gain much excess weight, and buttoned up my ethereal jackets almost until the holidays. But on recent months It wasn’t easy - I was in the hospital, then at home with IVs. But this didn’t bother me either; I had time to rest, prepare for the birth of a child, both morally and from a domestic point of view.

Shortly before the birth of my daughter, when the threat of premature birth was lifted, I rearranged the entire apartment, arranged the nursery, throwing everyone at home into shock, ran around the shops, walked up the stairs, in general, the “nesting syndrome” did not bypass me.

But the second pregnancy was more difficult. At first there was a very strong toxicosis, which I didn’t recognize right away, because I was busy with the baby, and I thought that I was just very exhausted, lost weight to the bones, and still managed to maintain breast-feeding, then somehow quickly I became quite overweight and clumsy, just when I had to jump with the eldest, walk by the arms, etc. But the second birth was very easy, and this compensated for all the difficulties of the previous nine months.

– What difficulties did you encounter after the birth of your daughters? After all, it’s very difficult to raise the weather...

– My mother helped me a lot. For the first six months she lived with us, and we “switched” children depending on the situation. But in general, my strategy initially was not to separate the children, but, on the contrary, to plan the day so that, if possible, we spend as much time together as possible. The youngest was born in mid-July, and she slept peacefully in a stroller outside for quite a long time. We used this time for the eldest to “go out”. Instead of a baby walker, she had a stroller with younger sister. The more we synchronized the girls' daily routine, the easier it became. Over time, difficulties with weather give way to advantages.

– Many women who have experienced the joy of motherhood say that having children has radically changed their lives. But not the regime and pace of life, which, of course, is already becoming different, but it has changed them as a person. Tell us, what feelings did you have after the birth of your first and second daughters?

– Of course, motherhood changes a woman. Everything that previously seemed important fades away against the background of responsibility for children and their future. It seems to me that with the birth of children I became more fulfilled, or more real. And this is even reflected in appearance. Looking at my old photos, I see some kind of rigidity in myself that I didn’t realize. And then a real one appeared in my life unconditional love. I began to take care not only of the children, but also of myself. After all, now I am a mother and must be responsible. Everything I do, I do with an eye on my daughters, I think about the example I set for them, I understand that their happiness to some extent depends on how I live my life. They taught me to love not only themselves, but the whole world in its most diverse manifestations.

Modern moms, especially with the advent of Instagram, constantly compare themselves with others and these comparisons, as a rule, are not in their favor. How to stop comparing yourself to someone more successful and forming an inferiority complex in yourself?

– I have never compared myself to anyone, and the feeling of envy is alien to me. I guess I was lucky with my character in this sense. I can be sincerely happy for someone, someone can motivate me. This is probably how you need to set yourself up when you look at someone else’s life through the prism social networks. At the same time, we must not forget that the life that is put on display rarely reflects reality. Few people are ready to talk about their failures publicly and put their shortcomings on public display. Therefore, all this gloss should not be perceived as true happiness.

Think about what is good in your life. If it is not a slim body immediately after giving birth, then perhaps the best and most caring father of your children. If your breakfasts aren't picture-perfect, then maybe you've been lying in bed with your kids all morning, fooling around or just cuddling in each other's arms. We don't have to be perfect; we have the right to be disheveled in the morning if the child has been playing around all night. We don't owe anything to anyone, especially not to the Internet community. Well, if you would like to get closer to some kind of Instagram ideal, then close the Internet, don’t waste precious time, and go for a run. Just 20 minutes of exercise a day instead of contemplating someone else’s life - and maybe in a month you will also have something to brag about.

– What is the most difficult thing for you in raising children?

– I understand what responsibility lies on the mother of girls for their further female happiness, because we are now laying down certain patterns that they will then reproduce in their own lives. own life. The price of your mistakes is the future of your children. But in life, not everything always goes smoothly. And for me this is the biggest difficulty - to explain adult problems to little girls without destroying their faith in love, to raise them as women who will not repeat my mistakes.

It is also quite difficult to balance between the desire to shelter them from all adversity and the desire to grow a strong independent personality. This is also hard work on yourself - to learn to let go of those for whom you are ready to give your life.

– Do your daughters get along well with each other or do they have any conflicts?

– There are conflicts, quarrels, and grievances - without this you can’t go anywhere. But I know for sure and I see how they love each other, feel responsible for their sister (our elder/younger roles are constantly changing), and stand up for each other. For a while they were one. In the last two years, I have observed how they are divided, becoming completely different, and different interests stand out from each other. But this doesn’t make sisterly love any less. And for me, as a mother, this is the greatest happiness - to watch how they move to the same bed in the morning and giggle about something of their own.

– Your girls have been going to school for several years now; probably, each of them already has favorite subjects and a predisposition to certain sciences? They are already thinking about the choice future profession. What do they dream of becoming?

– Professions change about once a month. But I see that, in general, a predisposition to certain professions has already emerged. For example, the eldest - Dasha - loves foreign languages, shows interest not only in what is taught at school (English and French), but sometimes takes an Italian, Spanish or German dictionary from the shelf, sits down, leafs through it silently, and then, as if casually, blurts out some phrase. At the same time, she reads a lot and has a good memory, so her literacy skills are native language also in perfect order.

But Ksyusha, although an excellent student and excels in absolutely all subjects, is clearly a creative person: she draws beautifully, models clothes, hairstyles, and can already apply makeup quite well, create a full-fledged image, thought out to the smallest details. Everything, of course, can still change, but certain inclinations in the girls are already visible.

– Do you think parents should influence their child’s choice regarding the choice of profession, school, friends?

– My task as a parent is to raise healthy children, physically and psychologically, to give them a comprehensive education, to show them the world and opportunities, and then they themselves will decide where to direct their feet. I will support them in any case. After all, I know from my own example how important it is to have a job you love, and not to suffer from 9 to 6 five days a week.

As for friends, I don’t promise. I have well-mannered, kind daughters and they now choose the same friends. But I myself was a teenager and I remember that when a period of rebellion comes, then good girls suddenly they can find a crazy girlfriend and go all out. Now I can only take preventive measures: do not “beat” children, do not put grades at the forefront, give them a sense of freedom and the right to choose, and also help strengthen my own inner core so that the child is a leader and not a follower. But there is also a set of qualities with which a child is born, and it is impossible to re-educate them. I already see the risks and keep my finger on the pulse. I will try not to miss the moment and, if necessary, then, yes, I will intervene. But again, in a cunning way, so that the child thinks that he himself decided this way. The task is not easy, but there is no choice.

– You have family traditions and rituals, for example, walking together on weekends, kissing before bed, regular hikes somewhere?

– Usefulness family traditions difficult to overestimate. Of course, we have them too. In the evenings we lie in bed and talk about how the day went, we try to always sit down at the table together, we go to our favorite cafe on Saturdays. We have a tradition called English Friday, when we speak only English all day. We like to cook together.

There are certain traditions for the holidays, most of all we love Easter, we bake Easter cakes together, paint eggs, in the morning I get up before everyone else and set the table, take out our Easter decorations, then hide a basket of chocolate eggs in the garden and after breakfast the girls start hunting. When someone is sad, we practice “magic hugs,” and, you know, I convinced the children so often that this was an excellent medicine that they really began to help.

– What do you like to do with your daughters together?

– Anything, as long as we’re together! Any homework turns into a real party if the three of us take on it. Recently we were clearing leaves from the garden, raking everything into a huge pile, and then jumping into it and throwing leaves. In the end, almost everything had to be reassembled, but what fun we had. I love traveling with children, I want to instill in them my passion for discovery and new experiences. Unfortunately, the new generation scares me with its resistance to adventure; sometimes it seems that among the three of us, the child is me, and those two are my parents. But I manage to stir them up, then they also sincerely begin to enjoy what they might not have noticed.

– Olga, you often communicate with fans on social networks, willingly respond to comments on Instagram. Do you allow your daughters to use gadgets and the Internet?

– Yes, they have both phones and tablets. But, of course, they are not registered on social networks yet. Sometimes I show them my pages, ask permission if I want to post a photo with them, then read them comments if, for example, they wish them a happy birthday. They themselves can watch funny videos about kittens on YouTube or cartoon series, and prepare reports for school. I still keep one eye on it, because sometimes, unwittingly, the Internet can slip you some nasty stuff. As for the games, they can download them themselves, but I make sure that most of them are useful, e.g. logic games or mathematical applications, well, the rest is, so to speak, for the soul and fun.

– What do you think modern children lack? For example, many representatives of older generations are sure that children now live in abundance - information, opportunities, even some simple things, the same toys, and this has a bad effect on them...

– I partly agree with this. Our children don't have hunger in in a good way this word. What is easily obtained is of little value. I remember how we passed books from hand to hand, what I read still lives in my memory, I tried to remember every word, because I had to give the book away. I remember how happy I was even with new tights. Today's children have fewer reasons to be happy. It's not their fault that they were born in the era of consumerism. That's why I try my best to teach them to enjoy what money can't buy: a beautiful sunset, an unusual beetle in the forest. When there is a thunderstorm outside, we stick to the windows and look at how nature rages, as if it were the most grandiose theatrical performance in the world.

As we take off on the plane, I burst into a tirade about what a miracle it is that we humans have learned to fly, we look at the clouds, we enjoy the sensations. I must say that it can be difficult to motivate modern ten-year-olds, but I believe that teaching children to enjoy life, be surprised, and look for answers to questions is almost more important than teaching them good manners.

– Olga, tell us how, in your opinion, children should be raised so that they grow up to be worthy people and at the same time be happy?

“You have to be a worthy person yourself—that’s first of all.” As for happiness, it is more difficult here - you cannot force someone to be happy. But you need to try to instill in the child the idea that happiness lives within himself, it should not depend on external circumstances, on the weather, on school friends. I say “try” because most likely a person comes to this understanding on his own, but at least you can sow a seed in a child’s head.

– Tell me, what is needed to be a happy mother?

– I always say that happiness is in harmony. Including maternal. For some, it’s coming home from work to their children and hugging them. For some, happiness is being at home all the time. It is important to hear yourself, understand what you really want and follow it. Without feelings of guilt and self-reproach. With the birth of children, a woman does not die, she should not dissolve in them, otherwise who will they follow as an example? From the ghost of your own mother? And the point here is not to run away from home and take care of yourself. Even when with children, a woman must ensure her own space, her own time, and respect for her needs from loved ones. Believe me, you will do this for their benefit too. After all, you are now the center of their Universe. This center should be strong and inspiring self-confidence. It’s trite but true: if a woman doesn’t love herself, then it’s difficult for others to love her.

A happy mother is easy happy woman, and only she knows what constitutes her personal happiness. Yes, at some moments we sacrifice ourselves for the sake of our loved ones, sometimes we need to completely devote ourselves to household chores, but in all this the main thing is not to lose yourself, not to shut up your inner voice. A family will only be happy when the interests of everyone are taken into account. It’s easy in words, but sometimes it’s harder in practice, but you have to strive for it. Awareness is already half the path to success.
