Victoria Talyshinskaya spoke in an interview about how doctors treated her at the 39th year of life when she became a mother, noting that they never labeled her as old. The singer recalled that she faced the moment with calm and resilience, focusing on the joy of welcoming a child rather than a supposed milestone. Her perspective reflects a broader conversation about age, health, and parenting in contemporary society.

She joked that the so-called “terrible diagnosis” somehow skipped her because her baby was born in the United States. According to Talyshinskaya, Americans rarely consider age in the same way; many women there choose to start families later, up to 40, and the concept of aging out of fertility is viewed differently. The remark underscored a cross cultural difference in attitudes toward motherhood and age.

There were no unexpected medical surprises for the artist, and she did not undergo any special examinations. She felt excellent throughout the pregnancy, working up to the eighth month and delivering without complication. The family spent a month in America, enjoying autumn by the ocean, before returning to Moscow. Within a day of arriving home, she was back on stage performing at a concert, demonstrating remarkable stamina and dedication to her craft.

Talyshinskaya expressed satisfaction with how everything unfolded, noting that she had managed to cultivate her career before the baby arrived. This balance gave her the freedom to embrace motherhood with clarity and purpose. She reflected that if motherhood had come earlier, she might not have approached the decision as thoughtfully as she did, emphasizing a deliberate, intentional path to both professions and parenting.

In October 2016, Talyshinskaya welcomed a daughter named Varvara, born to her husband, art restorer Ivan Salakhov. This personal milestone became a defining moment that complemented her professional journey, illustrating how she navigates public life while nurturing her family.
