The collapse of all hopes and happy motherhood
The train of scandalous fame was dragged along by the model and actress Anna Nicole Smith. It all started with her first marriage - then she was only 17, and her young husband Billy Smith was 16. The girl and her fiancé were colleagues: they worked in the same restaurant. Anna Nicole's son was born at the age of 19, and at 20 she already became a single mother. Both Anna and her firstborn, Daniel, died of overdoses while still young adults.
Happy mother Savannah Brinson is now expecting her third child. She and NBA star LeBron James met in high school. Savannah found out she was having a baby during her senior year and took her exams while five months pregnant. In October 2004, she gave birth to LeBron Jr. at eighteen years old.
Tina Kandelaki
Tina Kandelaki has a quiet and modest daughter, Melania. The girl rarely appears in public and does not like noisy parties. Just recently, a photo of young Melania and her mother appeared online, where Tina looks great. Fans note that the daughter of the famous actress is more like her dad; she only got her eyes from her mother. However, time does not stand still, and how many pop divas maintain such impeccable youth still remains a mystery.

Of course, in the age of high technology, when medicine does not stand still, they have come up with many methods of rejuvenation, various skin procedures, plastic surgeries, and so on, but not all popular singers and actresses resort to this method of preserving youth. Maybe one day, scientists will still be able to invent an elixir of eternal youth and beauty, but for now we can only wonder how successful and active famous mothers can remain so young and very young at their age
Something about the younger sisters of stars
Solange Knowles (the younger sister of the magnificent Beyoncé) found out that she was pregnant at 17. At 18, she gave birth, and did not regret at all that she became a mother. By her own admission, in his first year of life, her son demanded her constant attention, but he grew up to be a tough guy.
Another celebrity sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, also dreamed of fame. But early pregnancy prevented this. The girl did not refuse such an important step as motherhood, and gave birth at the age of 17. She is a wonderful mother, and no career could replace Jamie's baby.
Valeria
In her first marriage, Valeria gave birth to three children: Anna, Artemy and Arseny. The singer is currently married to Joseph Prigogine, who also has three children from his first marriage. The couple never had children together. However, Valeria and Joseph are the largest family in domestic show business, which does not prevent the “star” from looking much younger than her age.
Very early!
Singer, writer and actress Fantasia Barrino also became a mother at the age of 17. Her daughter Zion was three years old when her mother went to storm the prestigious American Idol competition. This TV show became a launching pad for Fantasia’s career, because she managed to win. This was in 2004. And in 2011, Barrino won a Grammy, at the same time she announced her second pregnancy, and soon the singer’s son, Dallas, was born.
Young and early - already at 13 she was nominated for an Oscar. And at the age of 16, New Zealand actress Keisha Castle-Hughes found out she was pregnant. She had just turned 17, and she was already the mother of the charming Felicity-Amore. In 2010, Keisha broke up with her child's father, her boyfriend Bradley Hull, after they had been together for seven years. In 2015, the actress will appear in the new season of Game of Thrones.
Roseanne Barr, a famous comedian, gave birth to a daughter at the age of 17. She was unable to care for the child and gave her up for adoption. But since then, the mistakes of the past have been forgotten, and Roseanne has been reunited with her daughter.

Age is not a hindrance for children! This wisdom is demonstrated today not only by Western, but also by domestic artists. The list of mothers who gave birth to their first child at Balzac's age only grows from year to year. The brave actions of new parents become an example for their fans, subject to stereotypes about the “ideal” age for the birth of a baby. “StarHit” decided to talk about the most famous personalities who gave birth to a child after 40.
Olga Drozdova

The beautiful actress and devoted wife Olga Drozdova gave birth to her first child after thirteen years of marriage with Dmitry Pevtsov. It would seem that life has given the star couple everything: fame, money, true love and a strong family. However, the woman could not get pregnant for a long time. As the celebrity admitted in an interview, at some point she stopped hoping. The long-awaited news about the unborn child came after the husband and wife got married in church.
Son Elisha was born when Drozdova turned 42 years old. As the celebrity later said, this event completely turned her life upside down. She looked at her husband differently, began to notice people who had previously been uninteresting, as if she herself had been born again. Now the boy is already going to school, and Olga manages to fulfill the roles of a caring parent, beloved wife and expert in her favorite profession. The movie star reaches new heights in her career and feels like an absolutely happy mother.
Kristina Orbakaite
Kristina Orbakaite, having two sons from previous marriages, decided not to stop there. She always dreamed of a daughter. And her innermost desires were shared by her husband, businessman Mikhail Zemtsov. There are no barriers for a strong and courageous artist, so at the age of 40 she decided to have a third child. The singer's dream came true - a long-awaited girl appeared in her family. As Christina later admitted, she did not have to resort to IVF or other procedures. It was enough to just want it very badly.
Kristina Orbakaite: “My husband gives compliments at the most unexpected moment”
Today Claudia has grown up a little and has become like a real queen from fairy tales. The baby prepares for an ordinary walk as if she were preparing for a social event.
“She’s going through her princess phase right now. If we are going somewhere, she says something like this: “So, I will wear a beautiful dress, tights, shoes, fluffy hair and a crown.” This is her image. Otherwise it won't be pretty. Only “fluffy hair”! – Kristina Orbakaite said in an interview with StarHit.
Olga Kabo
Honored Artist of Russia Olga Kabo also wanted to have a second child when her daughter became a teenager. In her first marriage to her husband, businessman Eduard Vasilishin, the actress had a daughter, Tanechka. And having married for the second time at the age of 40, she dared to have a second child. The new husband, businessman Nikolai Razgulyaev, became a happy father - his 44-year-old wife gave him a son.
The new mother also told how she dealt with her experiences. She says that her faith in God and clear confidence in her health helped her. Today Olga Kabo often likes to repeat in interviews how lucky she is that she already had an adult daughter. Tanya is an excellent nanny for her little brother.
The actress dotes on her son. Today, when he has grown up a little, the film and stage star happily talks about his family’s methods of upbringing. Olga Kabo’s son: “I’ll marry my mother!”
“Vitya is a holiday child. He doesn’t do anything that could cause my husband and I to be indignant or cause us to raise our voices. Kolya tries to ensure that his son grows up to be a real man: if Vitya is capricious, his husband explains that boys should not cry,” Olga Kabo said in an interview.
Svetlana Permyakova
The star of the series “Interns” Svetlana Permyakova surprised her fans twice. First, with news about the unborn child (then the actress was already 39 years old), and then with information about the baby’s father. The artist’s director, Maxim Scriabin, had just turned 21 at the time; he was half the age of his beloved.
It should be noted that the celebrity practically transferred her image from the screen to her private life. So, in “Interns” she plays a nurse who begins an office romance with a guy much younger than her. And the most remarkable thing is that the heroine’s surname in the series is exactly the same as the real surname of Svetlana’s child’s father – Scriabin.
Svetlana Permyakova: “I answered him: I agree”
The actress dotes on the little girl. And he doesn’t leave her alone for a minute. She decided not to choose between filming and the role of a mother, but simply take her daughter with her to work. At the age of 10 months, the girl Varya already appeared in one of the episodes of “Interns”.
Ilze Liepa
The famous ballerina and actress Ilze Liepa debunked the myth that representatives of her profession are not destined to know the joy of motherhood. Prima gave birth to her first child, daughter Nadya, at 46 years old. The parent admitted in an interview that she no longer hoped for a miracle. After all, together with her husband, businessman Vladislav Paulus, at that time she had been married for 14 long years.
However, the dancer’s spiritual mentor tirelessly repeated that she needed to hope and wait. And this faith helped the ballerina. Despite the fact that the union with her husband broke up after the birth of her daughter, the ballerina claims that a person’s faith can move mountains. With the birth of her child, the prima did not leave the ballet. She continues to work hard, does charity work and tries to spend as much time as possible with her beloved child.
Olesya Sudzilovskaya
Actress Olesya Sudzilovskaya lived in a happy marriage with businessman Alexei Dzeban for six years. The couple was raising their 6-year-old son Artem when the artist found out that she was pregnant again. For the couple, this event was such a sacred sacrament that they managed to hide the news not only from the press, but even from close people. Sudzilovskaya first attended social events, skillfully disguising her position. She did not close herself off from society even when it became impossible to hide her pregnancy. The artist wrote on Instagram that she became a mother for the second time at 42 years old, immediately after the birth of her son Mike.
“And now definitely with the birth of our baby! There’s another man in our family!” - the celebrity wrote on her Instagram.
Maria Poroshina
Actress Maria Poroshina is one of the few Russian actresses who manages to not only be successful in her career, but also from time to time retire from filmmaking to give birth to another child. Apparently, the movie star’s slogan is the phrase “Happiness lies not only in children, but also in their number.” The 42-year-old actress surprised fans with the news of the birth of her fourth daughter.
“Whenever a child is born, the world turns upside down, and you already relate to people differently. With warmth, with tenderness. You see only the good in every person,” Maria Poroshina admitted in an interview.
She also surprises her fans with her ability to give children non-standard names. The star chooses them together with her husband, actor Ilya Drevnov. They named their youngest daughter Glafira. She has three sisters: Serafima, Agrafena, and Polina.
Evelina Bledans
Famous actress Evelina Bledans and her husband, producer Alexander Semin, dreamed of children for a long time. The artist’s happiness knew no bounds when, at 42, she found out about her pregnancy. The celebrity wanted to share her joy with everyone. The screen star and her husband often went out into the world and gladly answered questions from journalists. They suffered a severe blow of fate when doctors reported that the child might be born with Down syndrome. However, the star couple was initially determined to fight.
Semyon was born when Evelina was 43 years old. The doctors' worst fears were confirmed. Despite this, the actress and her husband consider themselves the happiest parents. And what’s more, the show business star, immediately after the baby was born, started a page on the Internet, where she talks in detail about the developmental features of children with a terrible illness. Today, strong-willed parents have inspired many to give birth, regardless of the diagnoses made by doctors.
Marina Zudina
Actress and wife of director Oleg Tabakov, Marina Zudina, gave birth to his daughter Masha at the age of 41. The couple literally soared on wings of happiness. After all, their eldest son was then 14 years old. The husband and wife never thought they would become parents again. The name of the newborn was chosen by the head of the family. The master is sure that at least one child should definitely be named after his mother. So I did! By the way, the girl Masha is the fourth and youngest child of Oleg Tabakov. His two adult children from his first marriage long ago became parents themselves, giving the director long-awaited grandchildren.
“Children and grandchildren make one think of immortality,” the happy father Oleg Tabakov admitted in an interview.
Marina Mogilevskaya
The actress often calls herself “a girl of late maturation.” Her most cherished dream - to give birth to a daughter - came true only at the age of 42. As the movie star said in an interview, there was a moment in her life when she became obsessed with her fantasy of having a baby. If not for his strong character, perhaps such passion would have led to disaster. But Marina was able to stop in time, pull herself together, believing in the greatest wisdom: “Everything has its time.”
“I had been thinking about having a child for many years, but it didn’t work out: either I didn’t have enough time, or there wasn’t a man nearby with whom I would like to give birth... Nevertheless, every night, when I went to bed, I dreamed about my daughter. As you can see, dreaming really isn’t harmful: thoughts attract what you want!” — the actress said in an interview.
The actress considers her daughter Mashenka the most important miracle in her life. However, after the birth of the child, the movie star was in action within two months. Now Marina often likes to take her baby to filming and rehearsals, instilling in her a love of art and everything beautiful from a young age.
