Recently, the press has been writing more and more about the artist's personal life, his service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and the end of his career. Today, April 11, on MELOVIN's birthday, 24 Channel will tell you what is actually known about these areas of the singer's life.
Was MELOVIN really in the military?
In July 2025, the singer announced that he had joined the Ensemble of the State Border Service of Ukraine. But in September, the performer was hospitalized. He stated that he “could not withstand the pressure of the structures.”
I'm sorry, but everything happened again, like it used to. My mental illness and diabetes couldn't stand the pressure of the structures. I'm not a tough nut to crack. Sorry,
– wrote the singer.
Many star colleagues reacted negatively to such statements of the singer, saying that this is his greatest shame. They reminded that real defenders sit in the trenches for years, have not seen comfortable living conditions for a long time, and do not even know when they came home to meet their families. The artists do not understand how MELOVIN could “get tired” after a month or two of service in the Ensemble of the State Military Police of Ukraine.
It is unknown whether the singer still belongs to this Ensemble.
Why did the artist call off his engagement and break up with his lover?
5 years ago, the artist publicly came out, admitting to being bisexual. On November 23, 2025, MELOVIN announced his engagement and it came as a shock, because in an interview he stated that his heart was free.

His chosen one was Petro Zlotya, a military man and paramedic. But on February 14, the man announced that he had broken up with his fiancé 3 months after the engagement.
I ask the media to refrain from questioning. For my peace of mind and that of Petro, I will not comment on anything. Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
– wrote the artist.

Petro also laconically commented on the breakup, noting that you don't need to sacrifice yourself for the sake of love.
An hour after this publication, MELOVIN published the schedule of his concerts. Users accused the artist of PR. The singer himself hastened to declare that his relationship with Peter was not a fiction.

However, it is still unknown what caused the breakup. Perhaps one day the singer will tell the public the truth.
Where is MELOVIN now and is he ending his career?
Today, the singer cleared his Instagram page of old posts. Perhaps in this way he is preparing for the gradual end of his singing career.
On Radio Lux, the artist assured that he is indeed leaving the stage. At the end, he will present a theatrical performance to his fans. MELOVIN is already working on it together with a large team, the premiere is planned for December.
So, he wants to end his career at the end of this year and go into obscurity.
This is also not hype and not a farewell, like Mikhail Mikhailovich Poplavsky. I am really ending my career at the end of this year. I want to go into obscurity. Maybe you will miss me someday,
– said MELOVIN.
Recall that in early January, MELOVIN announced on his Instagram page that he was ending his career in 2027. He admitted that he wanted to focus on himself and his family – “without noise” and “a constant online presence.”
The singer recently went on a nationwide tour, but it had to be canceled. All because unknown individuals disrupted his concert in Rivne. For security reasons, the singer decided to cancel the tour completely.
