Newlyweds and age difference. A selection of articles on the topic Wedding traditions and rituals. Wedding OK! All about weddings.

The public primarily associates Natalya Podolskaya with the singer Vladimir Presnyakov, she is his third, perhaps his most dearly beloved wife, Volodya calls her “Tusya - my dude.” The two met in 2005, she was 23 years old and he was 37 years old. At that time, Vladimir Presnyakov was not going to start a serious relationship, he was not yet divorced from his second wife, designer Lena Lenskaya, but he no longer lived with her under the same roof; she left him, tired of his eternal whining about her being too busy with your career. By the time he met Natasha, Vladimir Presnyakov had become disillusioned with both love and women and became addicted to the bully. But Natalya Podolskaya managed to breathe a thirst for life into the famous singer. Natasha and Vladimir have the same temperament, the years go by, and to this day they feel good together, they don’t get tired of each other, they try not to be apart for more than a week, although in fact they tour together, they don’t like to rest apart, you look at them, but they They smile, laugh and look tenderly at each other all the time, needless to say, it’s an idyll. Although, of course, there was some grinding in, and it’s unlikely that everything was always sickly sweet! And once our hero even threw an ironing board at his beloved wife! But Natasha realized in time that there was no point in angering her husband, she needed to find an approach to him! In his youth, Vladimir Presnyakov pulled the blanket on himself very much in relationships, which is why the freedom-loving Kristina Orbakaite and Lena Lenskaya suffered. Previously, Vladimir Presnyakov was sure that it was better for a woman to sit at home next to her husband; over the years, he became more tolerant and compliant, and grew wiser. Who is luckier? Natalia Podolskaya or Vladimir Presnyakov? She saved him from loneliness, discouraged him from drowning his sorrows in a bottle, inspired and inspired him. He allowed her to enter one of the most famous clans of the musical elite of the Russian stage - the Presnyakovs-Pugachevs-Orbakaite-Kirkorovs-Galkins - all this is one big family and being friends with them is not only pleasant, but also useful. There can be no question of any commercialism of Natalia Podolskaya, because when she met Vladimir Presnyakov he was very handsome, in the prime of his life and could charm almost any woman with his charm, and Natasha herself was already quite well known to the public - in 2004 year she took third place at “Star Factory 5”, released her first solo album, and went to Eurovision. By the way, Alla Pugacheva was the artistic director of “Star Factory 5”, and very carefully looked after her charges, could she have thought that the charming, young Natasha Podolskaya would soon become the muse of her former son-in-law Volodya!

Natalya Pololskaya creates a positive image of her husband - he was a hard-drinking musician twice abandoned by his wives, and now, thanks to the Belarusian singer, this guy is associated with an exemplary family man, loving tenderly and idolizing his beloved wife and children. The whole country has been waiting for 10 years for this beautiful, talented couple to have an heir, a miracle happened, in 2020 Artemy was born - a copy of his famous dad!

And here’s another amazing fact - Natalia Podolskaya has a twin sister and her name is Yuliana, she gave birth to twins in 2020 (Natasha also gave birth the same year)! So Natalia Podolskaya and Vladimir Presnyakov have the opportunity to become parents of twins!

Many people are interested in what Natalya Podolskaya looked like before plastic surgery. The singer only slightly adjusted her nose; it was asymmetrical, but became very neat, but her individuality was preserved; the singer did not completely change its shape.

But in this photo you can see how Natalia Podolskaya’s nose became after the operation. The difference before and after is obvious.

In this photo, Natalya Podolskaya, Vladimir Presnyakov and their son Artemy.

23 years old

No one could believe that their romance spilled over from the film “The Rum Diary” into real life: for more than 14 years, Depp lived with Vanessa Paradis, raised two children and, it seemed, had long ago found a safe haven. But a long-legged blonde with blue eyes appeared - 23 years younger, and also did not hide her bisexual orientation. Depp had no intention of hiding his new relationship - at the film premieres, the couple generously smiled at photographers, kissed on camera and tenderly held hands. At the beginning of the year, Amber and Depp said their cherished “yes” to each other.

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones

25 years

They were born on the same day, a quarter of a century apart. When 30-year-old actress Katherine began dating the famous Hollywood heartthrob Michael Douglas, the tabloids began to whisper about another fictitious union. But the couple’s relationship developed rapidly: soon the celebrities got married, in the same year Katherine gave birth to a son, Dylan, and three years later, a daughter, Caris.

Years passed, and Katherine and Michael had no intention of parting: together they went through both Katherine’s mental illness and Michael’s terrible diagnosis of laryngeal cancer. In mid-2013, Douglas announced that he and Katherine were going to divorce. The whole world held its breath: in 13 years of what seemed like a cloudless family life, the couple announced their problems to the public for the first time. However, a few months later, Douglas and Zeta-Jones reunited.

In an interview, Katherine said: “I was lucky that I met him - not the two-time Oscar-winning actor and producer, heir to the Douglas dynasty, but Michael - the love of my life.”

Exclusive interview with ELLE: Vladimir Presnyakov and Natalya Podolskaya

ELLE So why get married? Nowadays, you can live without a stamp in your passport.

VLADIMIR PRESNYAKOV Cool question, I’ve never thought about it... In general, men and women understand the idea of marriage very differently. Women, in my opinion, have a genetically inherent desire to get married. And men come to this around the age of 40.

ELLE You and Natasha had two weddings...

V.P. Yes, the first one, the joke one in Las Vegas. It happened spontaneously, we were having fun, rocking out, and then I suddenly thought: we can get married here! He didn’t tell Natasha, he kept the intrigue. But I think she guessed it. I made a mistake: I suggested that she wear a white shirt. "For what?" she asked. “Well, I want to.” - “No, I won’t wear it.” - “Please, I beg...” How can you not guess! And although everything went off without unnecessary officialdom, in a cool way, I realized that this was important for Natasha. I noticed a tear of joy on her cheek when we arrived at the church. (Smiles.) And then there was a big celebration in Moscow - but not for friends and relatives. I just knew that Natasha needed it, and I wanted to make her happy. I think I succeeded. You can’t imagine how great it is to wake up and enjoy her smile every day.

ELLE You've been together for ten years. People at this stage often get divorced, but you still enjoy smiling.

V.P. It seems to me that when you live easily, treat yourself with irony, everything becomes simpler. The thing is, she's just like me. Absolutely. This is my soul mate, without whom it is impossible to live and breathe. I don’t insist on this idea, but it seems to me that before getting married, a man should take a walk, understand from his own experience where it is good and where it is bad and who exactly he wants to see next to him. Sometimes you fall in love, and a week later one tiny gesture or turn of your head breaks everything - and you can’t do anything about it. But with us it’s the other way around: any grimace makes you love a person even more. We make fun of each other all the time, laugh like fools... But at the same time we understand that love and marriage are an institution, an art that must be learned. I don’t like the phrase “work on relationships,” but that’s exactly what we do: we monitor our speech, because we realize that one word can lead to a quarrel, we don’t get offended, we discuss everything and try to squeeze the most juice out of every minute of communication.

ELLE Natasha is 14 years younger than you. Do you have to raise your wife?

V.P. Raising a wife is such youthful maximalism. And a big mistake. I also did it when I was young, in my first relationship. I treated the woman I loved like a daughter: don’t go there, don’t communicate with these people. There is no need to “mark territory”, show your superiority, this is such nonsense that cannot end in anything good. A woman needs to be looked after. Look at Animal Planet: All animals care for their loved ones - from storks to dogs.

ELLE How did you and Natasha meet?

V.P. It was in France, during the filming of the “Great Race” project. I was in such a special mood - I wanted to look like a scumbag. And he told her: “Well, baby, let’s tumble in the pool?” — confident that she would immediately slap me in the face. And she playfully replied: “Come on.” And in the future, no matter how hard I tried to look like a complete idiot, for some reason it worked for me.

ELLE Why did you just now decide to have a child?

V.P. It didn't work before. Something was testing us. Although I actively worked on this... In three shifts. (Laughs.) But we always believed that one day we would have a child.

ELLE How would you describe Natasha? What is she like?

V.P. She is an airy-radiant Moomintroll. From a fairy tale.

ELLE And you?

V.P. I'm a glamorous hipster pirate.

ELLE And what connects the Moomintroll and the pirate?

V.P. They live in a fairy-tale world that they built for themselves and in which there is no place for betrayal and evil.

Hugh Jackman and Deborah Lee Furness

13 years

Hugh Jackman and Deborah Lee Furness got married almost 20 years ago: the 13-year age difference did not bother the aspiring actor. Deborah became Jackman's talisman - some time after the wedding, the young Australian began to gain popularity. The attention of fans and on-screen romances did not lead Hugh astray: he is devoted to Deborah, raises two adopted children with her (the couple failed to have their own) and in every interview he praises his wife, without whom, according to him, he could not have succeeded . Deborah amazes those around her with her blooming and fresh appearance. It is noticeable that the Australian woman is trying to look younger for the sake of her star husband.

George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin

17 years

Successful British lawyer Amal Alamuddin managed to conquer Hollywood's most famous bachelor, George Clooney. They met in the fall of 2013 at an event for a charitable foundation, of which Clooney is one of the trustees. The wedding took place in Venice in September 2014.

In a recent interview, Clooney answered why he fell in love with Amal: “It’s amazing what a sense of style she has! From the very first day we met, I was impressed by her impeccable taste and bold, slightly eccentric approach to fashion. She’s always great,” admitted the actor.

Eddie Murphy and Paige Butcher

18 years

The couple met back in 2006 on the set of the comedy Big Momma's House 2. However, they began dating only six years later. By the way, Australian actress and model Paige is only 10 years older than Eddie’s oldest daughter, 24-year-old Bria, which means that his girlfriend is closer in age to his children than to him.

Bruce Willis and Emma Heming

25 years

After a painful breakup and then divorce from actress Demi Moore, the most famous American action hero for some time changed young girlfriends like gloves. This continued until in 2009 he met actress and producer Emma Heming. “I literally went crazy with love on the first date,” Willis admits.

The actor recently turned 60, and he is still in love with his 36-year-old wife like a teenager. In their marriage, Bruce and Emma had two daughters - Evelyn and Mabel.

Al Pacino and Lucila Sola

39 years

When the legendary “The Godfather” with Al Pacino in one of the main roles was released, Lucila Sola had not yet been born. When Al Pacino won the coveted Oscar, Lucila was 13 years old.

Today, the Argentine beauty has been accompanying the 74-year-old actor at all events for more than four years, blowing dust off him and not leaving his side for a second. Unlike many young passions of older celebrities, the public fell in love with Lucila: 35-year-old Sola always looks gorgeous and with every joint appearance she shows that she is crazy about her lover.

Jason Statham and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

19 years

Action actor Jason Statham and supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley met in the middle of spring 2010 at the Coachella music festival in California and immediately liked each other. The model, who was one of the Victoria's Secret Angels, was really hard to miss - perfect figure, long legs and clear eyes.

Their romance spun at breakneck speed: a month after they met, they were already living under the same roof in London. The beauty never tires of repeating in various interviews that she is not interested in the young guys with whom she acts in films and encounters in the modeling business. Statham diligently avoids the topic of his personal life in various interviews. Only once did the actor remark in a conversation with the editor of the American edition of Esquire magazine: “Telling me what attracts me in women means telling me what I own. I won't do this. I have my girl, she is the most dear to me.”

Natalya Podolskaya and Vladimir Presnyakov in the new issue of HELLO!

Vladimir Presnyakov and Natalya Podolskaya celebrated their wedding anniversary: four years ago they got married in the Church of Cosmas and Damian in the center of Moscow.
Correspondent HELLO! I attended a family celebration that Vladimir and Natalya organized on this occasion. Relatives came to congratulate the couple, including Vladimir Presnyakov Sr. and Nikita Presnyakov with his girlfriend Alena.

In an interview with the publication, Podolskaya and Presnyakov talked about how their lives have changed over these four years.

About the decision to get married:

Vladimir.

It was a mutual decision. As you know, women by nature are designed in such a way that they strive to get married, dream of having a holiday, putting on a white dress. Men have a completely different attitude towards this ritual. I never believed in marriage and advocated open relationships. But one day I talked to a priest, Father Fedor, and he told me one thing that completely turned my life upside down: “If you don’t want to get married, then you’re going backwards. If you take a step back, then you are a coward.” But I have never been a coward and I love this woman, that’s why we got married.

About how relationships changed after the wedding:

Vladimir.

After that, a divine connection appeared between us, which is difficult to describe in words, but if you try, you can explain it like this: without Natasha, it’s hard for me to breathe...
Natalya.
After the wedding, our lives changed in some ways. I remember when we stood in front of the altar, I felt, no matter how pathetic it may sound, that we were connected by invisible threads. I was familiar with this feeling before. I have a twin sister, Julia, and we have always felt each other on a subconscious level. After the wedding, Volodya and I had the same connection.

About quarrels:

Vladimir.

Let's just say that after the wedding we began to quarrel less.
And if, nevertheless, a subject for dispute arises between us, we turn everything into a joke. Natasha has a great sense of humor. Natalia.
Of course, we sometimes quarrel, like all people. But now we don’t have a question about who will come up first and ask for forgiveness. It just became even more difficult for us to be offended by each other, and therefore we quickly “move away” from quarrels and make peace. It is important to conduct a monologue with yourself, explain actions, actions, words and put yourself in the place of another, this helps a lot. Read the full interview on HELLO.RU.

Sylvester Stallone and Jennifer Flavin

The love story in a series of novels by Sylvester Stallone began for the actor in 1989. He met model and actress Jennifer Flavin on the set of the fifth part of the Rocky saga. The actor invited the beauty he was interested in to dinner, and she confessed her love to him right on the first date. Over the next six years, they got together and broke up repeatedly, but Jennifer was always ready to wait. In the end, the girl’s patience paid off handsomely - Stallone proposed marriage to her, presenting her with a luxurious diamond ring.

In 1997 they got married. Now the couple, who have been together for almost 18 years, are raising three daughters. “I’m happy that Jennifer, despite our quarrels and my madness, stayed with me. “She is a strong, calm woman,” Stallone admitted in an interview. – She speaks a little, but always to the point. She’s more attentive and probably smarter than me.”

And Vladimir Presnyakov celebrated their 4th wedding anniversary, but in fact, the lovers have been together for 9 years. The couple themselves say that true love at first sight once happened to them. We will tell you about this beautiful couple today on Lady Mail.Ru.

Not ready for a relationship

When Natalya Podolskaya and Vladimir Presnyakov met, she was a graduate of the “Star Factory”, and he was a well-known artist. The first meeting took place on the set of the “Big Race” program in 2005, where Natalya and Vladimir ended up on the same team. Adrenaline and the desire to win the show only contributed to their rapprochement - despite the rather large age difference, the lovers immediately drew attention to each other.

“When we met Natasha, I began to feel out of breath,” Vladimir Presnyakov said in an interview. “Then someone seemed to hit me on the head with a frying pan!” But of course, no one was standing behind him. The blow came from above, probably from an angel. It was love!"

In fact, the romance did not start that quickly. The fact is that Presnyakov at that time had just divorced his previous wife Elena Lenskaya and was not ready for a new relationship. And Podolskaya had just broken up with producer Igor Kaminsky, who helped her a lot at the beginning of her career.

“I had my first love, a man much older than me, now it’s even scary to think how much,” Podolskaya said about her romance with the producer. “He believed in me, in my talent, he helped me very, very much, paid for the studio, we recorded songs. But, unfortunately, this story ended badly. We parted as enemies. Although I did not want conflict and war. We had a production agreement, and then, in the early 2000s, it was a form of slavery. It got to the point of absurdity. The producer sincerely believed that he had the right to everything - to your name, to your image, to the interviews that you give to the publication. And when the love passed,... the trials began. I'm very sorry that this happened. People must be able to negotiate."

Natalya promised herself that after breaking up with her lover, she would not date anyone for at least 5 years and would only do work, but fate had its own plans. “It was love at first sight. An inner voice told me: “This is your future husband,” the singer recalls about her meeting with Vladimir Presnyakov at the “Great Races”. And although at first Vladimir was in no hurry to call the girl he really liked, soon the artists met again - and this time they finally realized that they wanted to be together.

Two weddings

Vladimir and Natalya dated for two years before their first, comic wedding took place. In the best traditions of romantic melodramas, they got married spontaneously, and not just anywhere, but in Vegas. The ceremony was a sham - the bride and groom wearing funny tall top hats, cheap metal rings and a fake marriage certificate. True, the happiness and smiles of the newlyweds were real - that’s why they decided that they needed to have another wedding, and that this time everything would be serious.

The celebration of Natalia and Vladimir was in the best traditions of star weddings - the newlyweds appeared on the cover of Hello! magazine, the bride chose a luxurious dress, and many Russian celebrities received an invitation.

The lovers got married at the Griboyedovsky registry office, and continued the celebration on the ship, where they threw a beautiful party for friends.

The union of Natalia Podolskaya and Vladimir Presnyakov has become not only family, but also creative - the couple constantly go on tour together, record duets and shoot videos. It is generally accepted that spending too much time together is not very beneficial for a relationship, but Vladimir and Natalya prefer to work and relax together.

Wedding of Vladimir Presnyakov and Natalia Podolskaya in Moscow

“It’s more convenient and comfortable for us - we don’t like to be away from each other for a long time, so we really like joint tours and concerts,” Natalya said in an exclusive interview with Lady Mail.Ru. Vladimir Presnyakov also agrees with her, who once said: “The ninth year of our relationship has begun, and we love each other more and more. Sometimes we read articles about how everyone is quarreling, separating, then we look at each other and laugh. We think: we are probably some kind of fool, crazy, not like others!”

In a word, everything is fine in the family of Natalia and Vladimir, although the singer is already very tired of questions from journalists about her children. News appeared in the media many times that stars would soon become parents, but each time they turned out to be wrong. Podolskaya herself says the following about the addition to the family: “We cannot say anything on this important topic, because children are not the budget that is planned. This is a miracle and it will happen when the time is right. In the meantime, we are happy with what we have in our life together.”

Vladimir Presnyakov and Natalya Podolskaya brought their son Artemy on stage in Jurmala

Vladimir Presnyakov and Natalya Podolskaya have been working together on stage for several years now. They are called one of the most beautiful couples in Russian show business. But in addition, Presnyakov and Podolskaya have been happy parents for several years now. Until now, they had separated concert activities and family life in detail, but now they increasingly intersect.

Vladimir and Natalya recently arrived in Jurmala, where the Laima Vaikule festival is currently taking place. Before the performance, Presnyakov and Podolskaya, according to tradition, went on stage to rehearse and adjust the sound. And together with the star parents, their heir, Artemy, also appeared on stage.

This was the first such experience for the little heir of the star family. Until now, the boy was sure that only his father went to work, and his mother should stay at home, next to him. Now, for the first time, Artemy saw how the work process of both dad and mom goes. The son carefully watched his dad's preparations, sang, danced and even wanted to help adjust the sound.

Natalia Podolskaya and Vladimir Presnyakov are called one of the strongest couples in Russian show business. The young people met in 2005, got married in 2010, and in 2020 their long-awaited child, son Artemy, was born. In a recent interview, Natasha admitted that for 10 years she and Vladimir dreamed of having a baby, moreover, the singer went to shrines to ask for procreation. Podolskaya emphasizes that she and her husband want another baby, perhaps even more than one.

“I’m ready to give birth even now,” the singer said in the “Secret to a Million” program. After such words, fans of the artist and journalists suspected the woman of a second pregnancy and began to carefully examine Natalia’s numerous photographs on the social network.

Correspondents contacted the popular singer and asked to comment on the rumors. "Yes you?! This is the first time I've heard about these rumors! No, I'm not pregnant. We really want a second child, but so far this happiness has not happened,” Podolskaya said.

Let's hope that Artemy will have a brother or sister in the near future!

Vladimir Presnyakov and Natalya Podolskaya first met in 2005 on the set of the “Big Race” program. At that time, the girl was a graduate of the fifth “Star Factory”, and the man was already an accomplished singer. The age difference between them was 14 years.

According to Vladimir, when he first saw Natalya, he began to choke. It felt like someone hit him on the head with a heavy frying pan. The girl thought that this artist would become her future husband.

They were in no hurry to start a relationship, because at that time Vladimir was preparing for a divorce, and Natalya was going through a breakup with her boyfriend. But six months later, the artists met again in a common company and from that moment their romantic story began.

The couple believes that angels brought them together. They didn't expect to love each other so much. After two years of relationship, the artists went to Vegas, where they played a comic wedding, but in 2010, Natalya and Vladimir declared themselves official husband and wife.

One can only envy their family life! They look very happy and joyful with their son Artemy.

In 2014, their joint song “KISSlord” was released. She talks about the sincere love between Natalya and Vladimir. The clip turned out to be very bright and warm. It shows the happy life of a married couple. You can immediately understand that their love is pure and true! Just look how the artists’ eyes glow!

“All ages are submissive to love” - probably there are very few people who have not heard this phrase. The well-known proverb is strongly confirmed by Russian stars, and today you will see unequal marriages of Russian celebrities, whose age difference is by no means 2-3 years or even five. Vladimir Shainsky and his wife Svetlana, age difference 41 years

Bari Alibasov and Liliana, age difference 40 years

Andrei Konchalovsky and Yulia Vysotskaya, age difference 36 years

Alexander Gradsky and Marina Kotashenko, age difference 32 years

Oleg Tabakov and Maria Zudina, age difference 30 years

Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin

It's no secret that the Russian pop diva Alla Pugacheva gravitates toward unequal marriages. After a divorce from Philip Kirkorov, with whom the age difference was 18 years, the diva decided not to stop there, and after 10 years of dating Maxim Galkin in 2011, they legalized their relationship. The difference in their ages is 27 years, but, according to the star couple, this does not bother them at all. And, although the personal lives of famous people are always under the gun of the press, paparazzi and the public, among whom there are always many “well-wishers,” Alla and Maxim do not pay attention to expressions of doubt about the sincerity of their feelings.

Boris Smolkin with his wife Svetlana, age difference 23 years

Igor Nikolaev and Yulia Proskuryakova

Igor Nikolaev does not lag behind the prima donna. After his divorce from Natasha Koroleva, with whom there was a 13-year age difference, the singer met his current wife, Yulia Proskuryakova. Then he had no idea that the girl who asked him to listen to her sing would become his wife. And so, in 2010, after five years of relationship, they got married. Their age difference is 22 years. What’s interesting is that the singer’s wife is 3 years younger than his daughter, and his daughter’s husband is older than Nikolaev. However, the age difference does not prevent Nikolaev himself or his daughter from building a happy family life.

Sergey Makovetsky and Elena Demchenko, age difference 18 years

Lera Kudryavtseva and Igor Makarov.

Most recently, on June 8 this year, the famous presenter Lera Kudryavtseva got married. The chosen one of the 42-year-old star was hockey player Igor Makarov, who is 17 years younger than the bride. The impression was such that the Muz-TV Award, which took place the day before, moved to the Safisa restaurant, where the TV personality’s wedding was celebrated. Igor Vernik and Nikolai Baskov were the hosts of the event, and such Russian pop masters as Grigory Leps, Valery Meladze, Dima Bilan, “Disco Accident”, Lyubov Uspenskaya, Dmitry Malikov, “Hands Up” and Comedy Club performed for the newlyweds. Lera ordered three dresses for her wedding. The bride wore a chic ivory dress embroidered with pearls. After the painting, the TV presenter changed her wedding dress to a dress made of the rarest fabric, which was embroidered with Swarovski stones.

Unequal marriage in a modern way

Why newlyweds and age differences are a common phenomenon

It just so happened, according to centuries-old traditions in Rus', that if a young beauty marries an elderly wealthy gentleman, this is a completely normal phenomenon. Such unequal marriages were especially welcomed if the bride came from a poor class, and her parents were not able to save a dowry for their daughter.

Live-in women and homeless women in Rus' had practically no chance of getting married. So the beauty and youth of the bride served as compensation for her poverty, and marriage was a kind of “purchase and sale” transaction, in which blooming youth was a “commodity” acquired for title and wealth. In literature and works of art of that time we find a lot of evidence of this fact.

V.V. Pukirev, Unequal marriage

Probably for this reason, popular rumor is lenient towards such trends even today. True, unlike in the old days, in modern society, no one forcibly marries girls to old men, and the decision about whom to tie the knot with is made by the bride herself.

However, practice shows that newlyweds and age differences are not uncommon, and this trend is very common among modern young people. In other words, there are a huge number of married couples who are separated by an age difference of more than five years, both in favor of the husband and in favor of the wife.

Psychologists explain this phenomenon by the physiological characteristics of men and women associated with the development of sexuality. It is believed that men aged 16 to 25 years have high levels of testosterone, that is, they have increased sexuality, which cannot be said about their peers, who reach their peak sexuality closer to 40 years. As a result, a kind of sexual incompatibility occurs between peers, which is why young guys are drawn to mature women, and young girls feel good with men over 40.

However, it can be assumed that physiology is too individual a matter for such generalizations, so one should look for an explanation in something else... So, why are newlyweds and age differences a common phenomenon? Probably, first of all, because there is nothing unnatural in this! Of course, unequal marriages often suggest the conclusion of a mutually beneficial deal between a man and a woman, which, of course, often occurs. However, this is not always the case.

Also A.S. Pushkin in his time was right about. With age, a person does not cease to be the same person he was in his youth. The body changes, but the soul does not change. There are two concepts - infatuation and love. More often, falling in love is understood as sexual attraction, which can have a fairly strong emotional connotation, but may be short-lived.

A person in love, driven by emotions, sees only the external side, not paying attention to the personality of the object of his feelings. And appearance plays a role here.

When it comes to love, these are much deeper processes, because they love not only for the attractiveness of the outer shell, but also for what a person’s personality represents. In other words, regardless of age, a person must be an interesting person.

This explains the strange phenomenon that an elderly and ugly person enjoys success with representatives of the opposite sex of different ages.

As already mentioned, the phenomenon when a husband is much older than his wife, as a rule, does not meet with any particular criticism, which has developed historically. But if the spouse is older, this already causes some discontent in the ranks of the public. For example, fans of Sergei Bezrukov really don’t like his wife, Irina. They believe that the wife is too old for the actor. The reason is clear: envy is a bad feeling, but, unfortunately, not uncommon.

In addition, public disapproval of marriages with a woman having an advantage in age is due to this. There are already fewer men in Russia than women. The older a woman is, the less likely she is to reproduce. Therefore, such marriages often remain childless. As a result, young applicants are deprived of potential suitors, and the state is deprived of an increase in population.

However, those who care about increasing the birth rate in the country can solve this problem on their own. And newlyweds can be advised not to pay attention to anyone’s prejudices, and to build personal happiness according to the dictates of their hearts.

Tilda Swinton and Sandro Kopp

18 years

Popular actress Tilda Swinton is known for her love for everything extraordinary. She also chose a lover to match herself: the little-known German actor Sandro Kopp is in no way inferior to his passion. The age difference between Tilda and Sandro is 18 years, but it seems that this does not prevent the couple from living happily in a modest house in Scotland and raising the actress’s children together.

True, rumors around this relationship never stop. So, in the past there was talk in the press that the actress’s ex-husband John Byrne also lives with Tilda and her young lover as her second husband. The star herself denies such gossip.

Biography and personal life of Vladimir Presnyakov

The biography and personal life of Vladimir Presnyakov, before moving to the capital of Russia, took place in the city of Sverdlovsk, in a family of musicians. Volodya's parents were young and lived very modestly. There were no extra funds, so at first the child slept in the bathtub in which he was bathed. Then we bought a stroller, which was a bed for our son at night and a means of transportation during the day.

After the parents were offered to join the Gems group, they moved to Moscow, taking their son two years later.

In the capital, Vladimir was assigned to another musical boarding school, from which he was expelled, as from previous educational institutions. At that time, Vladimir had already composed his first song and learned to play several musical instruments.

The young man was not upset by this decision, since during this period he went on his first tour as part of the Cruise group.

The debut of Vladimir Presnyakov Jr. took place in a restaurant variety show, the owner of which was the already famous singer Laima Vaikule. At that time, the teenager was barely fifteen years old.

In one movie, Vladimir was entrusted with singing a couple of songs. According to the script, these works supposedly belong to the main character. The songs were liked by both the audience and the critics.

Vladimir Presnyakov worked with many songwriters and wrote many of his works with his own hands.

From 1987 to 1994, the singer collaborated with the Alla Pugacheva Song Theater.

For several decades, Vladimir remained the most sought-after singer in Russia. His songs took first place in various charts. The concert program “Castle of Rain”, which took place at the Olimpiyskiy (1995), received the “Best Show of the Year” award.

Few people know that the falsetto with which Vladimir Presnyakov sings is due to illness. She almost deprived him of his voice completely. But, fortunately, everything ended well: the young man recovered, managing to maintain such a high timbre of his voice.

By the beginning of 2000, the singer's popularity began to decline. But Vladimir does not even think about falling into depression. He began to collaborate with Leonid Agutin, and also recorded several new songs, together with Natalya Podolskaya, his wife.

Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green

13 years

Actress Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green first met at the Hope and Faith event hosted by ABC. And although she was only 18 years old, Megan later admitted, she “knew he was absolutely gorgeous,” so she wanted to get to know Brian as well as possible.

The other day, Vladimir Presnyakov and Natalya Podolskaya celebrated the anniversary of their acquaintance. Volodya arrived home very late, around two in the morning - he was recording a new song in the studio. But Natasha did not go to bed, she was waiting for her beloved.

She prepared a light dinner, put candles on the table and took a bottle of expensive wine from the refrigerator. Presnyakov, seeing all this, blossomed. He also decided to make his contribution - he fried eggs with the doctor's sausage. Both of them found his simple dish surprisingly tasty. The lovers sat next to each other and could not stop looking at each other.

Meanwhile, some still believe that the famous singer’s affair with a former participant in the “Star Factory” project is nothing more than a PR campaign. Like, both of them decided to stir up interest in themselves. And their age difference is quite significant.

- Do you mind if we talk about love?

- www.eg.ru asked Podolskaya when Presnyakov was not next to her.

Let’s try,” Natasha blushed.

Romance of Rhodes

- Volodya is much older than you. And he has already been married twice. Doesn't this bother you?

No. We have an ideal age difference - 14 years. At school I was never interested in my peers; I had nothing to talk about with them. I have always preferred older men. And I’m not bored with Volodya. He knows how to look after beautifully and give gifts. When he found out that I loved Swarovski jewelry, he literally showered me with rings, brooches, and rings. I don't even have time to put everything on. Look, this is his last gift,” Natasha pointed to the elegant ring that adorned her hand. - Isn’t that great? Volodya often buys things for me himself, he has excellent taste. He studied my measurements and knows what I like. I love his gifts. And recently he took me to Greece, to the island of Rhodes. This is not our first trip. We have already traveled together to Israel, Monaco and Sochi. Everywhere was good, but in Rhodes we had the best holiday of our lives. There we wandered around exotic places, rode scooters, splashed in the sea... Volodya was so romantic, so gallant. I realized how much I love him.

- When did you realize that he loved you?

We met in France, on the set of the TV show “The Great Race”. From the first minute I felt that there would definitely be a continuation. By the looks that Volodya threw at me, by the remarks that he made.

Everything was not easy for Volodya and me. At some point we even broke up and stopped calling each other. I was terribly worried then. And then everything started spinning again.

— One of the newspapers wrote that Presnyakov proposed marriage to you. But nothing has been heard about the wedding. Has the groom changed his mind?

They write a lot about us. We live in a civil marriage. I think if we have a child, we will legalize the relationship. At least I hope so.

- You started talking about the child. What about a career?

If God sends me a child, I will forget about my career, honestly. I want to have children, like any woman.

- Sorry, Natasha, but Volodya admitted to me that he is unlikely to marry you. They say he's tired of the stamps in his passport.

Yes?! Well, I won't rush him.

- When you quarrel, who gives in first?

I usually try to be the first to smooth out the conflict. Fortunately, Volodya is the same as me. He also knows how to compromise.

— Does it annoy you when Volodya throws his things around the house?

Oh, it definitely scatters! But I don't blame him. I even like to put them in my closet. After all, these are the things of my beloved man. I even wash his clothes. In addition, a housekeeper comes to us three times a week.

Lost Reznik's poems

Natasha turned 24 in May. Presnyakov, according to her, gave her an amazing holiday

It was the best birthday of my life! - she recalls. “I have a twin sister, and Volodya did his best for both of us. I ordered a luxurious banquet at the Moscow restaurant “Jazz Town”. It was May 20, just that evening Dima Bilan performed in the Eurovision final. At our request, they hung a large screen in the restaurant, and we all cheered for Dima. We went home at nine in the morning.

— Natasha, you come from Belarus. Are you going to the Slavic Bazaar festival?

But of course! Together with Volodya. At the Slavic Bazaar we will perform a new song “Vina” as a duet for the first time. The music was written by Volodya, and the lyrics by Ilya Reznik. There are very beautiful words there - about great, great love. Initially, the song was written for a male singer, but since we decided to sing together, Volodya asked Reznik to redo the words a little. And it must have happened that when Reznik gave me the new text, I managed to lose it! Fortunately, Ilya Rakhmielevich took the situation calmly. And he dictated a text to me over the phone.

Unequal marriage in a modern way

Why newlyweds and age differences are a common phenomenon

V.V. Pukirev, Unequal marriage

A person in love, driven by emotions, sees only the external side, not paying attention to the personality of the object of his feelings. And appearance plays a role here.

This explains the strange phenomenon that an elderly and ugly person enjoys success with representatives of the opposite sex of different ages.
