Malakhov confirmed his departure on maternity leave. Andrey Malakhov goes on maternity leave Why did Malakhov go on maternity leave

Apparently, the now former host of the most popular show on Channel One, “Let Them Talk,” Andrei admitted that he was surprised by the popularity of the news about his maternity leave.

“I didn’t expect it myself, but the main news of the past week was my maternity leave, and this news even puzzled me,” the showman wrote on the pages of the magazine, of which he is the editor.

According to him, the duration of the vacation has not yet been determined.

“I don’t know yet whether I will follow in the footsteps of the general director of the Novosibirsk Opera and Ballet Theater, who, after the birth of his fourth child, decided to go on maternity leave for as many as three years, or will I act on a shortened version, like with those who devoted themselves to caring for their babies a little less time,” explained Malakhov.

“The last time we discussed which episode of the educational cartoon “Child. Einstein" is better to start introducing the baby - Baby da Vinci, ready to send the baby on a musical journey from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, or limit himself to a video under the promising title "Baby Shakespeare," writes the TV presenter.

The pregnancy of Andrei Malakhov's wife was indeed news number one throughout the past week. Changes in the figure of the TV presenter’s wife became noticeable in footage from the family vacation they spend on the island of Sardinia.

However, reports that the TV presenter was leaving Channel One appeared before information about his maternity leave, namely on July 31.

Then it was reported that the TV presenter would continue his career in the talk show “Live” on the TV channel “Russia 1”. This was explained by the fact that a conflict allegedly broke out within the “Let Them Talk” team: the producer “who worked there nine years ago” returned to the program, but “Malakhov no longer worked well with her.”

According to the BBC Russian Service, producer Nikonova, who came to the TV channel, planned to slightly change the format of the talk show and add it to the program political topics. Malakhov could not agree with this, and therefore refused further participation in the television program. By the way, the new presenter of “Let Them Talk” is one who works at “Evening News”.

In addition to the “political” version, there is also a household version. The new leadership could have given Malakhov an ultimatum precisely because of the situation with “maternity leave.” Speculation that Malakhov might leave Channel One precisely for this reason appeared on the same day as information about his wife’s pregnancy.

“Channel One producer Natalya Nikonova gave him a choice: either he stays with the company or becomes a babysitter. The journalist chose to pay attention to his family,” StatHit magazine wrote then.

The same information was published in the magazine, where Malakhov’s wife works as a brand director and publisher.

“After the TV presenter’s message about his desire to go on maternity leave, the new talk show producer commented that “Let Them Talk” is not a nursery, and Malakhov needs to make a choice about who he is - a TV presenter or a babysitter. This formulation of the question, according to sources, seemed to the presenter absolutely cynical and unacceptable,” the publication said.

Andrey and Natalya have been married for six years.

The future spouses met at work - Natalya is the daughter of a businessman, the president of the Hearst Shkulev Media holding, which, among other publications, also includes the already mentioned places of work of the future spouses - Elle and StarHit magazines.

The newlyweds' wedding took place in 2011 at the Palace of Versailles in France. Offer your future wife Andrey did this a year after the start of the relationship during their vacation in New York. Over the long six years of marriage, social network users have repeatedly made assumptions about Natalya Shkuleva’s possible pregnancy.

Each time Malakhov denied rumors on this topic, and Natalya said that when the family was really expecting a new addition, the public would know about it.

Meanwhile, Dmitry Borisov concluded “Let Them Talk” on Monday with the fact that viewers will learn some new details on Tuesday.

The main reason for the departure of TV presenter Andrei Malakhov from the First, to which the journalist devoted 25 years, may be maternity leave. They say that the new producer of the show “Let Them Talk” set a condition for Andrey: either work or maternity leave.

"When the father goes to the role children's teacher, this is a fairly new topic for our society. When Andrei Malakhov takes on such a role, it looks like a real sensation - no less! ", comments family psychologist, candidate of pedagogical sciences, expert at the Center for Emergency Psychological Assistance Pavel Ponomarev. In his opinion, this story is fabulous, touching and at the same time very tender But in our society there is an established tradition, according to which the woman takes care of the children, and the father earns food. And even Malakhov is unlikely to be able to change public opinion.

“We have a strong stereotype: if a father walks with a stroller, it means that he has not succeeded as a man, they say, he cannot earn money, he is a complete loser. Of course, such arguments are complete nonsense. If it were not Malakhov, but a simple miner, then, believe me, society would automatically condemn him and psychologically tear him to pieces,” the psychologist continues.

As Dni.Ru previously wrote, the sensational dismissal of TV presenter Andrei Malakhov from Channel One received an explanation. According to Elle magazine, Andrei’s wife, Natalya Shkuleva, is pregnant, and for a considerable period of time. And when Andrei asked the new producer of the show “Let Them Talk” for a vacation to support his wife before giving birth and - as they say - in the first time after it, the producer allegedly confronted the TV presenter with a choice.
Sources close to the union of Andrei and Natalya say that Malakhov does not tolerate being pushed around or being put into strict boundaries. When the producer found out that Andrei would like to be with his family, the comment came that “Let Them Talk” is not a nursery, and Malakhov must decide: he is a TV presenter or a babysitter. Andrei's choice was made in favor of the family.

After a fight with the producer, Andrei and Natalya went to rest. In the famous Hotel Cala Di Volpe in Sardini, designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, singer Philip Kirkorov, son of Prince of Monaco Eric-Alexandre Stefan, TV presenter Anna Chapman, businessman Alisher Usmanov are relaxing next to their spouses. Andrei and his wife do not hide from anyone and lead an active lifestyle on vacation, illustrating best moments photos on Instagram. In the photographs, Natalya’s pregnancy is clearly visible, but the spouses do not seem to be bothered by this at all.

“Remember, one of the most popular Soviet slogans: “You cannot live in society and be free from society”? This thesis is still alive in our minds,” says Pavel Ponomarev. According to the specialist, many will say that Malakhov is doing the wrong thing, that he just wanted to relax while maintaining his job, and so on. Judging by the fact that not a single comment was received from Malakhov himself regarding his dismissal from the First, the TV presenter made the only correct decision in this situation: “Let them talk!”

As Elle.ru insiders report, this formulation seemed cynical and unacceptable to the TV journalist, since in accordance with paragraph 2 of Article 256 of the Labor Code, parental leave can also be granted to the child’s father or other relative.

By the way, this practice has been widespread in Russia and all over the world for several years now. Previously, another famous father, general manager Novosibirsk academic theater opera and ballet Vladimir Kekhman took maternity leave.

While dad was taking care of his daughter Alice, he managed to open another business. Afanasiev began selling products online.

“When my daughter missed her mother, I showed her a photo or we called her via video call,” said Alexey, “Alice heard the voice and calmed down. There were no problems with food. In the morning, my wife expressed milk. I also gave him the mixture, and soon we switched to it completely.”

According to the Social Insurance Fund Russian Federation, the number of men who take maternity leave has increased over recent years. A father staying at home with a child receives a benefit in the amount of 40% of average earnings. By the way, for some families this is an effective way to slightly increase their income.

“The legislation provides for the right for a person to work part-time while on parental leave,” said Irina Svinchenko, a representative of the Social Insurance Fund. “Then the father can receive both a salary and benefits.”
