Famous “Papiny Dochki” actress Darya Melnikova is one of those celebrities who prefers to keep her personal life private. It was only revealed later that she had married Roman Nabatov and welcomed a daughter about a year ago. However, this time, Melnikova gave an in-depth interview, openly sharing her experiences of motherhood.
In a conversation with WomanHit, the actress stated that she feels comfortable in the role of a mother of multiple children. “After the second child, as they say, you stop counting. You just turn into a multi-armed Shiva, serving everyone you have brought into this world. And of course, it’s beautiful,” she said. According to Melnikova, going through the postpartum period has been easier for her this time, as she already understands the process—especially the importance of sleep.
When it comes to raising her daughter, the actress prefers not to plan too far ahead. She tries to be a friend-like mom to her sons, Artur and Mark, but admits she doesn’t know what the teenage years will bring. Artur is currently 9 years old, while Mark is 6. “Mothers should be gentle and caring with their sons, shaping their future vision of a wife,” she joked. However, she emphasized that parenting is a constant process of self-reflection and uncertainty. “No matter what we do, they will still find something to discuss with their therapist one day,” the actress concluded.
