“We didn’t take a break after the first birth”: Anastasia Kostenko explained how she decided to have three children by Dmitry Tarasov 27.06.2023, 05:50

The owner of the title “Second Vice-Miss Russia-2014” and her husband Dmitry Tarasov are raising 4-year-old Milan, 3-year-old Eva and one-year-old Alexei. The 29-year-old model often faces mixed reactions to her decision to become a mother of many children. Many blame Kostenko for trying to tie her husband to her with the help of her children. However, Anastasia admitted that she and Dmitry discussed this issue even after the birth of Milan.

“How to decide for the 2nd and 3rd child? I wanted a big family. I saw myself as a mother of many children and motherhood is one of my favorite jobs. After the first birth, my husband and I unanimously decided not to take a break and went to our goal, “said Anastasia.

According to the football player’s wife, she had to face difficulties. Kostenko was worried about whether she would be able to give everyone the proper attention, whether she would love the babies equally, and how quickly she would get back in shape after giving birth. The chosen one of the former midfielder of Lokomotiv spoke about what helped her to find balance.

“The only thing that was unshakable for me was faith. Faith that I will be a great mom, that I will be able to give my children everything they need, that my heart will expand and not break, and that I will be in the best shape that my body can be! Well, an adequate assessment of all options and aspects: physical and mental health, finances and sharing opinions with household members. I didn’t listen to other people’s advice and focused on my desires and strengths, “explained the model.

The titled beauty also suffered from criticism on the web. Fans pointed out to Anastasia that she is hiding on maternity leave from having to work. “Once it was written to me that having children in a row is an escape from self-realization. And then I realized how it devalues ​​motherhood. Of course, such a theory has its place, but it refers more often to the sender than to the addressee… You have to understand that we are all different, and now it is not at all the parenting that was 50 years ago. Now moms have the opportunity to take care of their children and what they love, and not forget about themselves. It is right for children to be a motivation to be better, not an excuse for inaction. The most important thing is to evaluate your strengths and abilities. What will others say? They will tell you about themselves, not about you, ”added Kostenko.

Anastasia’s husband joined the discussion. Dmitry made an unexpected proposal to the chosen one. “Maybe one more?” Tarasov asked. “If your message gets 300 likes, I’ll think about it,” Kostenko joked.
