Among Ukrainian celebrities, there are many who experienced parenthood at a fairly young age. It seemed that at 18 years old, life was just beginning, but then someone had to take care of their own child.
24 Channel will tell several star stories, when even having children at an early age did not become an obstacle on the path to fame and popularity.
Tonya Matvienko
According to Tony, she met her first husband through a classmate. The meeting with her future chosen one took place in 1997. The singer began dating him at the age of 16, when he was 23. Moreover, the artist was sure that she would remain in this marriage for the rest of her life.
However, when Matvienko became pregnant at 17 and gave birth to a daughter, the couple's relationship began to suffer. The couple divorced 10 years later.
