Daughter and mother zavorotnyuk with dark ones. Daughter of Anastasia Zavorotnyuk - Anna Stryukova: biography, facts from life and photos of the young star. And the son has already decided on his future profession

But when eldest daughter Anna entered the university and went to study in New York and London, Anastasia realized that she was not yet ready for such a separation from her daughter. Moreover, over the past few years they have also become the closest friends who trust each other with their deepest secrets, go shopping together and visit beauty salons. Mother and daughter told OK! about mutual trust, similarities in views and family life.

Anastasia Zavorotnyuk and her 19-year-old daughter Anna look less like mother and daughter, but more like sisters. Now Anna is a real copy of her feminine, stylish mother. But a few years ago the girl did not recognize any dresses, preferring torn jeans and Gothic style. “When Anechka was little, I bought a huge number of dresses with frills, all so delicate, beautiful... I called the store and asked them to put aside all the dresses that suited her size. And these touching delicate fur coats, boots, shoes... I wanted my daughter to be dressed like a girl,” recalls Anastasia. But time has passed, Anya has matured and now she herself gives advice to her mother.

Do your tastes match now?

Anastasia: We have completely different tastes. Sometimes Anya just forces me to buy something. She liked it leather dress. I say: “Why do I need it?” - “Take it immediately.” She is funny. But then I wear it all with pleasure. I’m not a fan of shopping at all; I used to often buy some things that stylists brought to shoots, but this fall, in New York, Anechka and I, in addition to visiting museums, also went shopping.

Nastya, are you already sharing your beauty secrets with your daughter, or is it too early for her to know them?

Anastasia: I feel completely calm in the role of a mother and am not trying to say that we are sisters. ( Laughs.) Nevertheless, I take my appearance seriously, because for me it is important. The longer I stay in shape, the more opportunities I will have to work. For me, going to a cosmetology clinic is part of my job. For example, if my shoot is cancelled, I immediately sign up for a massage, restoration, hair treatments... And all my loved ones understand that this is important. If Anya has any problems, we go to the salon together. But it’s too early for her to undergo serious procedures. Naturally, she understands and knows that self-care is an important component of our life if you want to be blooming, beautiful woman. True, now, due to the fact that Anya is studying in New York, we don’t go to salons or shopping together so often.

How do you cope with such a long separation from each other?

Anastasia: Honestly, it seemed to me that I was more prepared for the fact that my daughter would sooner or later leave to study in another country. But when this happened, I realized that it was very difficult for me without Anechka. I immediately had some urgent matters in New York... ( Smiling.) As a result, I spent the first session next to her.

Anna: I miss you very much too. Before, mom was always nearby, but now she’s so far away... We’re like best friends, we always consult with each other. I don't trust anyone more than my mother.

Anastasia: We can sit with her in the bedroom and chat half the night - and try to come to us! And we can talk about anything! Children are my closest friends. They are the only ones to whom I trust absolutely everything: only they are guaranteed to understand me correctly.

Nastya, when did you realize that your daughter had become an adult?

Anastasia: I didn’t have any clear gradation - well, that’s it, it grew. She has always been a thoughtful girl beyond her years.

Anna: I was probably born with a serious attitude towards life. ( Smiles.)

Anastasia: But on the other hand, no matter how adult she is, I look at her and understand that she is still just a child. I don’t know, it’s probably like this for all mothers.

Wasn’t it scary to let your child go to a foreign country?

Anastasia: When my daughter decided to leave, I was very worried: how will she start living there alone in a foreign city? I told her: “Anya, I understand how difficult it will be for you.” I began to remember how I myself came to Moscow from Astrakhan. But Anya stopped my carefully prepared monologue and answered me very well: “Mom, please note that coming from Astrakhan to Moscow is not at all the same as coming from Moscow to New York.” And I didn’t even have anything to object to.

Anna: After all, Moscow is also a big city, a metropolis just like New York.

Anastasia: It’s worth saying that after Moscow she was even a little bored in New York. In fact, she tried for three years in a row to go study abroad - first to England, and then to the USA. When she decided to enroll in London, I even sent her to choose a college. But she talked to Russian children, and they told her that they were sent to England only so that they would not interfere with their parents’ lives for their own pleasure. At that time, for her immature consciousness, this very controversial argument had a decisive influence, and all my attempts to convince her and prove that these were just a couple of special cases were a fiasco. She walked around the city, took pictures against the backdrop of Big Ben and Kensington Palace and returned home. The topic of England was closed. After some time, America arose. At this point we prepared very thoroughly, passed all the necessary exams to enter the university... But when the confirmation came, she suddenly refused.

At the last moment?

Anastasia: Yes! I was filming in Minsk at the time and came home for just a few hours. And then one day, when I arrived home, I discovered that the child was very excited. I ask her: “Don’t you want to tell me anything?” She replies: “I can’t go to America.” - "Why?" And she: “Mom, I’m still little, I’m scared...” For three years she did not dare to go to study abroad.

Wasn’t it scary to go now?

Anna: It’s also scary, but I decided to take a risk...

Anya, who are you studying to be?

Anna: For the producer.

Anastasia: But there is acting, directing, script writing, producing, and production organization. That is, everything together. This was unusual for me, because we have a different education system, but, on the other hand, it seems to me that this is very interesting experience.

Anya, why didn’t you want to concentrate only on acting?

Anna: I wasn’t sure that this was what I wanted to do all my life, so I didn’t even consider theater.

Nastya, didn’t you want your daughter to become an actress?

Anastasia: I am a big fan of ballet and dreamed of doing it myself as a child. When Anechka was born, I decided that this was a chance to make my childhood dreams come true. Let her become a ballerina! All my friends unanimously repeated: “Your girl is simply created for ballet!” Without waiting for my daughter to grow up to the age when they take her to a ballet school, I sent her to gymnastics at an Olympic reserve school so that she would have good stretch. For several years she worked out in the gym four to five times a week. Despite the fact that she did it very well, Anya kept repeating: “I don’t want to.”

Anna: Yes, I was about four years old, and I really didn’t like all these activities. As a result, we came to the conclusion that I am, after all, an independent person and can make decisions myself.

Anastasia: All four years she studied with tears in her eyes and finally one day said: “Can’t you understand that your dreams are not my dreams!” At that moment I was driving her to class. She was eight years old. I stopped, turned the car around, and we drove home.

A serious act for an eight-year-old child.

Anastasia: It seems to me that Anya was an adult from birth. She always clearly formulates what she wants, makes a decision and then builds a strategy on how to achieve what she wants.

Nastya, are you the same?

Anastasia: No. She knows how to wait, but I don’t. Cossack blood flows in me, and if something doesn’t suit me, saber drawn! The decision has been made, which means it must be implemented immediately.

Is your son also patient, like Anya?

Anastasia: Mike is also patient, calm, balanced, but I look at him and understand that he is completely and completely modeled after me: I was the same at his age. This is probably why I understand him much easier than Anya. I feel all his worries, doubts or, conversely, joys.

Are you a strict mother?

Anastasia: Maybe also due to the fact that all the burden and responsibility for the children lay on me, I held them very tightly. I could have pulled it over. At some point, Petya (Peter Chernyshev, the actress’s husband) helped. Note OK!). Anya and I periodically had some nervous situations, one day she announced that she would stay with a friend, and I was categorically against it... In general, Petya took me for a ride around Moscow at night, and when my Cossack ardor cooled down, I exhaled , calmed down and more or less calm state returned home.

Did they let Anya go to her friend?

Anastasia: Under pressure from Petya, I told Anechka that she could stay with a friend. But as soon as I allowed her to do this, she immediately changed her mind and returned home.

Anna: I felt like an already formed person, I wanted some kind of freedom. And my mother thought I was little. Although, of course, I was still like that. And Petya really helped my mother and me with this. He smoothed out our conflicts and explained to my mother that there was nothing wrong with children growing up.

Anastasia: In the end, I realized that my children do not tolerate the harsh method. I don't know if this is right or wrong. For example, Paganini’s father forced him to practice the violin for many hours in a row, and he became very good at it. I didn’t risk putting that much pressure on my children.

You once said that parenting problems can be solved by loosening the leash.

Anastasia: Yes, as soon as the fruit ceases to be forbidden, there is no point in fighting for it... I have always taken conversations with children seriously. It is very important not just to listen to them, but also to hear them.

Anna: Mom is always very loyal to us, always gives us the right to choose and never puts pressure on us. She instructs us to Right way, gives us advice, but nevertheless never limits us in anything.

They say little children are little troubles, big children are big troubles. There was a lot of trouble in adolescence?

Anastasia: I’m probably one of the happiest mothers. Anechka and I had two or three difficult situations. Yes, I was nervous, but basically we survived everything. I heard it can be worse. I hope everything will be just as good with Mike. He is an interesting young man who plays the guitar six hours a day. The lessons are not great, really, but everything is fine.

But grades are not the most important thing.

Anastasia: No Cs, thank God. I say: “Let’s finish without Cs.” - “Okay, come on.” Now, since we moved to live outside the city, we transferred Mike to a school that is right next to our house. Recently I came there, the teacher said to me: “You have such a wonderful young man. He is so well brought up, so intelligent and attentive. We are so happy when he comes to lessons...” The main thing is that the problem was presented to me so delicately. ( Laughs.)

And the son has already decided on future profession?

Anastasia: B Lately We are discussing this topic more and more often. He comes up to me and says: “Mom, talk to me, I’m worried about how and what I will do.” By the way, his acting abilities are noticeable. But I probably wouldn’t really want him to choose this path.

Why?

Anastasia: I want him to stand stronger on his feet. Our profession is very precarious, a lot depends on chance. Not even from your abilities, aspirations or talent, but from chance. That's why I don't put pressure on him.

Nastya, when Anya was offered to try herself as a TV presenter, were you not against it?

Anastasia: I was shocked. This was a complete surprise for me. At first I didn’t believe it, I thought it was a joke. The producer called us and explained that this was not a joke - they really wanted to invite her to host the program.

Anna: I was invited to the casting. I arrived and was just incredibly worried. I memorized the entire text so that it bounced off my teeth. And in fact, they took me.

Anastasia: When Anya was approved, I came to them and said: “Why are you taking her? She's 16 years old and doesn't know how to do anything. Now she will be embarrassed, both you and I will have to blush.” But they didn’t listen to me. ( Smiling.)

Nastya, but everything worked out.

In general, it worked out.

Anya, did your mother criticize you?

Anna: Of course! We watched the programs together and analyzed everything carefully.

Anastasia: I am a very strict critic and always tell Anya where things were wrong: where she was lazy, where she fell short. She gave advice. To which she answered me: “Our producer tells me everything exactly the same as you, only even better.” Then I told her: “That’s it, I’m retreating, talk to the producer.” But I also tell her about behavior film set I explained that there couldn’t be any whims, that in our profession you had to either give your best one hundred percent or leave it.

Anya, weren’t you offended by your mother’s criticism?

Anna: No.

Anastasia: Because she knows that I work like this myself. After the first shoot she told me: “I was so worried...” And I was amazed: “Then why weren’t your knees shaking? Did your voice break? You didn't say anything stupid out of confusion? What were your experiences?

Anya, have you tried acting in films?

Anastasia: They often call her, but she doesn’t want to.

Anna: There are no projects that would interest me.

Anastasia: Maybe the children, looking at me, realized how difficult it all was. By the way, Anya did star in one episode of “My Fair Nanny.” She played my character as a child. And they managed to persuade her only by offering her a serious fee. ( Smiling.)

Anna: I’ve always been very calculating. ( Smiling.)

Anastasia: I myself played in the same episode. And I was so nervous that I forgot the whole text. In the end, the director stopped filming: “Nastya, your daughter looks much more professional than you!” But then my daughter also spoke up, telling me: “Stop being nervous. Get a hold of yourself". I had to calm down.

Anna: I just learned both my text and my mother’s. And she was very angry that she didn’t remember her words. I told her. It probably looked funny from the outside: a child teaching an already accomplished actress how to act. ( Laughs.) But my mother listened to me.

Nastya, have you taught your daughter not to pay attention to gossip?

Anastasia: When they used to write something bad about my family, the children calmed me down and said: “You never know what they wrote. We know that this is all nonsense.” Therefore, it seemed to me that Anya, if anything, could cope with this. But it turned out that even such preparation does not work here. One day, a girl took a photo of herself undressed, signed the photo “Anya Zavorotnyuk” and posted it on the Internet. At that moment, Petya, Mike and I were in America at the premiere of the film “Moms”. Anya called: “Mom, there’s a story here...” When I arrived, they told me that my daughter, a person of incredible endurance, simply cried and said: “Why? What harm have I done to them?

Anna: Indeed, at first there were tears, nerves, it was hard to train myself not to react to all this.

Anastasia: But we talked and came to the conclusion that we shouldn’t pay attention to such things. They constantly write about me and my family, including bad things, gossip and fables are spread. Well, now, should we go crazy about this? And no matter what they say about us, we cannot make excuses: firstly, no one will believe it anyway, and secondly, once you start, you will have to devote your whole life to making excuses. We try to protect ourselves from this. At some point, I gathered my relatives and asked them not to read all these publications anymore.

Nastya, now that Anna and Mike have already grown up, do you not feel guilty that when they were little, you did not pay enough attention to them?

Anastasia: When I was “Nanny”, I worked 15–19 hours a day, seven days a week. She came, kissed their heels and went to bed, and left in the morning - they were still sleeping. For them to run and frolic around me - that didn’t happen. And if this suddenly happened, it means I just lay there and silently looked at them.

Anna: I didn’t feel like I was a neglected child. My brother and I always feel great love from our mother and understand: everything she does is only for our sake. But I really really missed it. I remember times when we saw mom once a week because mom left while we were still sleeping and came back when we were already asleep. In fact, they only watched her on TV.

Anastasia: It was tough year, then it became easier, and that’s it free time I wanted to spend time with the children. This still happens today.

You have so much filming going on right now. It’s probably not often that you manage to get out to see your daughter?

Anastasia: Yes, so far there is absolutely no free time. Now I am filming several projects for one of the federal channels; the series “Provocateur” directed by Stas Shmelev on the Rossiya TV channel is soon to be released, in which Andrei Chadov and I are fighting corruption. The series “Department” is also being released on NTV, it was shot by the talented director Vladimir Nakhabtsev - there I try on the role of a police major, an investigator. Recently they filmed the program “The Invisible Man” on TV-3, it will be released in April. That's enough too interesting project, where I first encountered people with unusual abilities. And on March 7, I had the premiere of the entreprise play “The Third Wheel.” I've been thinking about working on stage for a long time and finally decided to do it. IN soon I have a tour - in Belarus, Kazakhstan, Israel, and then I will definitely go to visit Anechka.
