Elizaveta Boyarskaya shared in an interview with Svetlana Bondarchuk that she values time with her children over attending social events.

She described themselves as the kind of parents who dedicate nearly all their free hours to their kids. “I enjoy it; I have a lot of fun with them. They often tease me, saying, Lisa, why don’t you go somewhere, you won’t be seen at any party… I’m not sure, perhaps there’s a strange sense of guilt that lingers,” Boyarskaya explained. The confession reveals a prominent actor who cherishes family life as a core priority, choosing intimate moments at home and with loved ones over the glow of public appearances.

In a broader discussion about family policy in Russia, the artist welcomed the growing support for large families and expressed confidence in dedicating a substantial span of time to childrearing. He emphasized that, given the opportunity and the wish to invest energy into his children, he could commit eighteen years of his life to their upbringing. Boyarskaya echoed the sentiment, noting that she and her husband, Maxim Matveev, actively strive to give their children maximum attention and a stable, loving environment.

Towards the end of October, the couple Elizaveta Boyarskaya and Maxim Matveev appeared publicly together for the first time in quite a while. The outing coincided with the Chekhov Moscow Art Theatre’s 125th anniversary celebration, a moment many in the audience tied to both tradition and renewal in Russian theatre. Rumors about Boyarskaya’s pregnancy were not substantiated during the event, with the actress arriving in a sleek black dress that underscored her refined, effortless silhouette. The appearance offered a rare glimpse into their family life amid busy artistic schedules, reminding fans of the balance between public roles and private foundations of family happiness.

Earlier remarks by Svetlana Bondarchuk touched on a personal note, describing a mystical presence within the home. The comment added intrigue to the interview, inviting readers to consider how personal beliefs and everyday life coexist with the demanding rhythms of a career in the arts, and how such beliefs may influence the ways in which a family creates its sense of ritual and comfort.
