By nature, Muromtseva is a workaholic, so she often devoted herself entirely to her favorite work, however, over the years, she realized that she needed to maintain a balance between work and personal life, devoting no less time to her family.
Childhood
The future broadcast star was born in 1978 in Leningrad. Her parents have nothing to do with television and journalism: her father and mother served in the Soviet army and were signalmen. Her sister also grew up in the family. While raising her daughters, my mother adhered to strict rules and strict discipline. The girls could not establish contact with their parents, who constantly kept them under a tight rein.

When Irina was 11 years old, the whole family moved to Bryansk. During her school years, the future TV presenter had the same interests as many of her friends; she dreamed of a career as an actress and even planned to enter VGIK. Being an excellent student and a perfectionist in her views, she dreamed of finding her own business and then growing and developing in it. The girl chose her future profession spontaneously and only over time realized what she wanted.

Her parents lived modestly, so she relied only on herself and her strength. After graduating from school, Muromtseva was preparing to enter Foreign Languages, but without getting a couple of points there, she entered the Bryansk Pedagogical Institute, Faculty of Economics.
young years...
Soon, by a lucky chance, she ended up on Radio NK, where she first tried herself as a presenter. After studying one course, the girl dropped out of college, planning to leave for the capital. But her parents were against this, so the girl went to Voronezh, where she soon began studying journalism at the university.

She did not forget her dream of conquering Moscow, and after some time her journalistic epic began.
Childhood and youth of the TV presenter
Irina Muromtseva is a well-known journalist and TV presenter in Russia. The charming brunette hosts the Good Morning program on Federal Channel One. In the recent past, Muromtseva was the host of the author’s programs “Guests on Sundays” and “Park”. For some time she worked on the state channel “Russia” (“Morning of Russia”, “Vesti”) and “NTV” (“Segodnyachko”, “Old TV”). He is a producer of various projects and is involved in charity work.
Irina was born in Leningrad in 1978. The father of the future journalist was a military man. The family often moved from one city to another. Irina’s mother was also a military servicewoman (communication operator). Currently, the TV star’s parents are retired and live in Bryansk. After Leningrad, the family lived for some time in Rzhev, in the Tver region.
Irina graduated from school, or rather Lyceum No. 1 named after Pushkin, in Bryansk. As a child, the girl studied well, loved performing on stage, and reading books. Ira dreamed of becoming an artist and entering VGIK. However, after graduating from the lyceum, she submitted documents to the Bryansk Pedagogical Institute, and to the Faculty of Foreign Languages. True, I didn’t get a few points, and had to apply for economics.
This faculty was in every university, including pedagogical ones. After college, the girl could work as a labor teacher. True, she did not like her chosen specialty. Ira did not like to sew on a typewriter. In Bryansk, while a student at the Pedagogical Institute, she found a job at the local radio station “Radio NK” and, at the request of her classmates, congratulated their loved ones and sent greetings to all her friends over the radio. For such services, the girls gave her stitches using a machine.

A year later, Ira left the pedagogical institute and entered Voronezh State University. At this university I studied journalism. During my final years, I found a job in Moscow and transferred to distance learning. In 2001 she received a diploma in journalism.
TV career
Irina’s first place of work was Radio ROKS” and then “Open Radio”, but she did not leave Voronezh University, transferring to correspondence studies. It was difficult to study and work, and at first there was a catastrophic lack of money.

At that time, the girl did not have a dream of working on TV, but when she found out that her colleague on Bryansk radio got a job at NTV, she also decided to try her hand. In 1999, Muromtseva began working as a correspondent for the Segodnychko program, and then there were other projects in her career:
- "Old TV";
- "Voice of the People";
- "Hero of the day";
- "Today";
- "Country and World".
In these programs, she performed editorial and production work, and she also had to communicate and interview prominent artists and artists.

In 2006, the Rossiya channel appeared in Irina’s work biography, where at first she hosted news in the Vesti program. She soon realized that this was her profile, after which she went to Good Morning, becoming the co-host of Andrei Petrov and Vladislav Zavyalov. After working for several years, Muromtseva tried to develop her career on the channel, but management was not interested in her new ideas. In 2014, she received an offer from Konstantin Ernst, and soon she was already working on her own project called “Recreation Park of Culture,” being its producer and presenter. Then Irina took part in the filming of such programs as:
- "Guests on Sundays";
- "Good morning".
At the beginning of 2020, a new show with her participation was launched - “Main Role”, in which famous musicians, athletes and TV presenters became participants. This project also revealed new opportunities for Irina herself; she, together with her co-host (Pavel Priluchny), performed songs and dances from popular Soviet films.
“I don’t hide anything from my daughter”
In the family and at work, Muromtseva (far right) interviewed many stars... This is a still from the program “Guests on Sundays” with the participation of Oleg and Rodion Gazmanov.
Photo: Channel One - How does Lyuba find a common language with her younger sister?
- Fine. Now it's even better than before. Until recently, she could lock the door to her room with a key so that Sasha would not come to her. And now he already allows her some things. As an older sister, Lyubasha behaves like a mistress: this is possible, this is not. Moreover, each of the girls has their own character. Even 3-year-old Sasha. It happens that Lyubasha wants to spin her around the room, but Sasha refuses - she doesn’t want to, that’s all. There is a big age difference between them - 12 years. But I hope they will still become close people. Only a few years will pass - and Lyubasha will have her own interests, her own life. Maybe she will go somewhere to study, maybe she will stay here. But in any case, he will branch off from the family. I would like for them to maintain a warm relationship. When Sasha was just born, Lyubasha said: “Mom, I beg you, can all these diapers, diapers not touch me? It’s just unpleasant for me, I don’t want it.” I said, “Okay, okay. I won’t force you.” There are children who are delighted with babies. Lyubasha is not one of them - she is very reserved and even wary. You can understand her: after all, for 12 years we were only with her.
Men are born with an internal attitude: they are authorities.
— You recently got a tattoo on your arm. If tomorrow Lyuba also asks for a tattoo, will you allow her?
- If she really wants this, this is not a momentary impulse, but a thoughtful step, then yes. And yes, of course, I am aware that we raise children by our own example. But what makes me happy about Lyubasha is that she has her own opinion, she is a very wise girl. Sometimes my husband and I quarrel and sort things out. It would seem that she should adopt this style of relationship. But no. Lyubasha observes, analyzes and draws her own conclusions. And he says to me: “Mom, I see that you are unhappy, and he still tells you something. But don't pay attention, don't listen. It's just that if you listen and get offended, then you admit that you really have it in you. And if this has nothing to do with you, why react? Just be quiet. And everything will pass like a cyclone.” “Lyubasha, where did you get this from? I didn’t tell you that.” She replies: “Well, it’s really mine. I am a diplomat and I consider this my acquisition. Life taught me that." I try to talk to my daughter as much as possible. I myself didn’t have the most positive experience of teenage life, but I tell her about it, I don’t lie, I don’t hide anything. There were moments that I regret. But at the same time, I had no contact or trusting relationship with my mother. People in those days tried to maintain subordination between adults and children. This greatly influenced me in my youth and convinced me that communication is necessary. I can't do it any other way! Sometimes, of course, my daughter goes a little overboard, and then I have to remind her: “My friend, I’m your mother after all. Have you mixed up anything? And yet the lack of distance is correct, in my opinion. Yes, there is no chain of command, but it’s okay, you can do without it.
— Does your husband support you in this?
- Not really. Men are basically born with the internal mindset that they are authorities. Both in the family and at work. If there is no subordination, then how can a man establish himself as the boss, the leader of the pack? Maxim sometimes says: “That’s it. Now Sasha will be three years old, I will start raising her.” She sometimes gets capricious, hysterical, and throws everything around. I say: “Yes, that’s normal. There is no need to react like that. The child is just growing up. These things happen to everyone." But he is still angry. In general, Sasha is our bright little man. She is very kind, wonderful, affectionate, inquisitive. The youngest daughter is my outlet. Sometimes filming goes on all day - from morning until evening. We are filming several programs in a row. And all of them need to be experienced emotionally. At the end of the working day, I’m no longer like a squeezed lemon, but like a rag. I'm crawling home. And then Sashulya sits down next to me, hugs me, and I just feel how little by little, in a thin trickle, vitality is returning to me. It's like she's pumping air into me. And I immediately feel good.

Personal life
As a 17-year-old girl, she began an affair with a married man, but after a year and a half, the lovers separated. She could not share her experiences with her mother, so she endured her first love very hard. In Muromtseva’s first marriage, a daughter, Lyuba, was born. Then she was in no hurry to go to work and was on maternity leave, like all mothers, for a year and a half.

Her husband is also devoted to work, but has a different approach to what he loves. If previously the presenter did not seek to change her place of work and team, then Maxim, on the contrary, welcomes the novelty. Being involved in producing work, he does not sit in one place and always creates his projects from scratch. It was her husband who advised her to leave Rossiya and join the staff of Channel One. Due to her profession, the presenter often found time to be alone; she went to the Moscow region, went to the cinema, to a concert or did yoga. Not long ago, the couple realized that they stopped spending time together, communicating mainly by phone. Then they decided to reconsider their work schedules in order to be able to relax together more often.

The youngest daughter often goes to the TV studio with her mother during filming, but the presenter herself does not strive to make her a creative person. Sasha is glad to be with her mother on the other side of the screen and watches the process with interest. She enjoys dancing, loves to sing and draw. The girl will start school soon, so preparations for school are in full swing.
