Who is Sergei Melnik single with? Sergey Melnik: in life you always need to achieve your goals. Sad love story

“The media bachelor and talented football player Sergei Melnik won more than one girl’s heart, but still did not open his own to a romantic relationship. Sergei openly spoke about his daily routine, lifestyle, attitude towards civil marriage and sex without obligations in our interview.”

Let's start with the fact that a person who is far from football has approximately the following idea about a football player: a sporty, well-endowed guy who changes girls like leg warmers, cheating geographical position from season to season... Sergey, can this associative series be applied to you?

The further a person is from football, the worse his idea of ​​football players is (laughs). And the associations can be continued indefinitely. In fact, we are all different! Just as in music, politics, and in any area of ​​life, and in sports (in football, in particular), you can meet people who are completely opposite in their worldview and behavior. And their lifestyle will not be similar, although they have the same profession. Perhaps the goals and dreams are the same, but the people are different. Therefore, I would immediately warn against the stereotyped presentation of a “football player” if we're talking about about me, and my colleagues too.

You can't argue with that.

So, football life is an unpredictable thing. It happens that you devote your entire career to one club or change clubs every year, and along with them your place of residence. And what’s most beautiful is that all cases have their own charms and everyone is happy in their own way, if they get any pleasure from being associated with football at all.

I ended up with a combination of both situations. Until the age of 20-22, my career was connected with Odessa and my native “Chernomorets” (Ukrainian football club from the city of Odessa. – author’s note). I couldn’t even imagine that I could live and play in another city or country. I didn't even plan something like that. Yes, leaving Odessa is not easy (laughs). But soon the geography of my career began to expand and today I have already managed to play in many teams different countries, which, in turn, helps to learn the culture, language, features national cuisine and the mentality of other peoples, and most importantly - gives a large number of friends from all over the world. I consider the rest of the “associations” to be a little mercantile and would not like to answer, but to put it briefly, a professional athlete should receive a decent payment for his work. And if you know how to do something better than others, then you should be appreciated and appreciated, especially since the age of sports is short-lived and no one guarantees that tomorrow you will wake up in full health and be able to continue making money in professional sports. Professional sport is a risk. We, football players, at the age of 6-7, took the risk of starting to play football. You need to study this business for 10 years and have a ghostly hope, and most importantly, a Dream (to become a professional from hundreds or thousands of guys like you). Then earn a living in 10-15 years.

How would you comment on the point about girls?

I don’t change girls, I’m alone for now. For me, the issue of relationships is a long conversation that deserves a separate topic.

Tell us about your daily routine.

My day can go completely differently, there is no strict automatic schedule for months in advance. First of all, everything is subject to the team schedule and a lot depends on the training time. But I always have a plan for tomorrow in the evening. Virgo, what can you add (smiles). I'm very pedantic. I carefully monitor my nutrition and try to plan my day so that there are no long breaks between meals, and I also definitely need to squeeze in an extra session in the gym, in addition to the main team training. This is like a bonus for myself, I can’t live without the “Gym”. Sometimes I make going to the gym my third workout of the day. And it won’t always be strength training: exercises, cardio, stretching, all kinds of exercises for agility, coordination, reaction, static endurance. We need to approach everything wisely and understand that professionally I play another sport, therefore, even though my hands are itching, it is not advisable to put more weight on a football player. You have to save your strength. Another mandatory rule with two team training sessions per day - an hour's sleep during the day. Books really help to take your mind off the hustle and bustle and constant movement.

Whether it's on the balcony in the morning or while I'm on my way to lunch with the team, or even evening time before bedtime. I don’t watch TV at all, but although it may not sound modern, books distract me from the Internet and useless communication. I’ll also add language learning to this. I am constantly studying English, and have also started to learn Spanish. I don’t like to sleep for a long time, and I try to finish all my work before 11 pm. My rule is this: if you want to get enough sleep, you have to go to bed on a different day than when you need to wake up. I try to adhere to this rule and advise everyone (smiles).

How much time a day do you devote to sports?

One training session takes 1.5 – 2 hours. This is the load itself. We also need to calculate and add here the time to prepare for training, and since we are gathered an hour or even more in advance for medical control (daily weighing and blood pressure measurement), it will take about 5 hours for one team lesson, plus the hall takes 2- 3 hours. It’s good that he is always nearby (this is a very important criterion for me). And if there are two team lessons, then the day is scheduled minute by minute: from 9.00 to 20.00 you need to be at the club base.

Now the question that worries everyone who has seen your photos without a T-shirt is how long do you need to sweat in the gym in order to get six-packs like Sergei Melnik’s?

So it's as easy as shelling pears! They also found a problem for me (laughs). From the age of 6-7 you start doing acrobatics, for about 2 years, then, against the will of your parents and all coaches, you go to football and continue to love the sport. From the age of 20, during the football holidays, you don’t lie on the stove, but go to practice kickboxing and love Gym. All of the above is only 15-20% of success. I believe that abs are 80% proper nutrition and, quite simply, the percentage of fat in the body. I won’t say that now I spend a lot of time on my abs, they work during all exercises and especially running, so sometimes it’s more useful for the abs to do cardio and not eat crap than to just dumbly, excuse me, “sort of” pump them up.

So are you watching your diet?

In terms of food and nutrition, I have serious discipline. I rarely allow myself to deviate from the rules. Proper nutrition– this is preparation for training and better recovery after. Flour products are kept to a minimum, no sugar, salt, sauces, soda, chocolates and any sealed store-bought food (in general, the list can go on for a long time) - I simply don’t have all this at home. There is a complete taboo on alcohol and cigarettes, and it is better not to smoke or drink alcohol in front of me. In general, my usual diet is rich and varied, since I really like to cook. I choose the ingredients myself and stand at the stove; the presentation of the dish is also important to me: everything on the plate should look appetizing and tasteful. I rarely prepare for a day or a week; I mostly cook for a specific meal, let it be salads, cereals, meat, fish.

The bearded joke that EVERYONE can play football and write articles is relevant at all times, because literally everyone scolds football players for being “bow-legged” and journalists for being “venal.” Have you heard negative reviews about your game from the fans?

Fans are an integral and important part of football; they want and should feel their importance, their involvement in everything that happens. We play for them, they support and cheer for us, without this union there will be no big victories. In all cities they are different, there are those who can’t even name the team’s composition, and there are also those who have known many of the players since childhood.

There are sharp, stupid statements, but often criticism is to the point. No matter what you do, if you are visible, people talk about you. And often those who do not understand and do not understand the essence of the profession. Yes, the “couch masters” know better than anyone how to sing, how to lead a country and play football. There is always a choice: continue doing what you love or lock yourself at home and sit on the sofa.

I love to travel, but I can’t say that I manage to do it as often as I would like. If I have the opportunity on vacation or during a break in the championship, I try to go somewhere, preferably to a place I haven’t been to yet. I love architecture, I love photography interesting places, I pay attention to people, their style, culture. I often travel alone with a backpack or one bag. Experience shows that the more carefully you plan and more people you involve yourself in the upcoming train, the less chance of its implementation. IN Lately fell in love with the Cote d'Azur and learned more about Cannes, Monaco, Nice. These are definitely the places to stay for for a long time.

Milan was once my dream, although many people dissuaded me from visiting there. But this city remains a dream even after my visit. I also really like Rome, Turin, Amsterdam.

Somewhere, when you return to somewhere, you say: “I’m home”?

As our fans chant: “We are from Odessa and we are proud of it!”

And what will I say to this: “Yes, yes!” I am a resident of Odessa and will say a special word for Odessa! As Utyosov said after a tour of France: “Let that Paris clean the boots of our Odessa” (laughs). With all due respect to other cities and countries, Odessa is not “somewhere” and I feel at home in it.

In Odessa, people probably recognize you at every step?

Not without it! After the TV project, popularity and recognition increased. In the summer, when Odessa is crowded with tourists, people often come up to chat or take pictures. In winter, there is less attention, since only Odessa residents remain in the city, and they already have several photographs with Sergei Melnik (laughs). Just kidding, of course.

Is the notorious Odessa humor your “trick”?

I am a big connoisseur of humor, especially intellectual humor. Good joke should be short. Sometimes, in order to make a sharp joke, both the speaker and the listener must be sufficiently educated.

Now let's talk about personal life. It is clear that the answer to the question is it free your heart, worries many, but we would like to know how long the list of requirements is for your potential applicant to go to the registry office?

At the very long question I'll try to answer briefly. We complicate life too much with all sorts of cliches, templates, like “right” and “wrong”, what others will look at and think - all this is garbage, tear it up and throw it away.

I am sure that there are no specific criteria, and no one will ever find a person who will be close to him based on the list of requirements. For people, everything is outrageously simple! There is such a wonderful word “like”. So, you just need to like each other and neither the color of the skin, nor the length of the hair, nor the size of the chest and butt are important, and the rest is a matter of relationships. I am single and, apparently, there is a time for everything.

By the way, do you accept civil marriage?

This can be approached in different ways. Partly this is irresponsibility, but making such a decision is a purely personal matter for the couple. If such a marriage will benefit the relationship, then so be it; no one has the right to interfere in someone else’s personal life and advise how and who should live better.

Is sex without commitment the norm or an inappropriate trend?

It’s not that this is the norm, but it has a place in my life and I’m okay with it.

Again, after studying your Instagram account, under each photo several dozen girls write a comment in the hope of your attention. Admit it, have you answered at least one of them?

I answer messages quite often, but, of course, I pay more attention to messages from friends and acquaintances. Whenever possible, I try to respond to meaningful comments rather than just emojis.

Are there girls in your circle of close friends?

Certainly! I clearly distinguish between the concepts of “colleague”, “comrade” and “friend”. I am very kind to my friends and value friendly relationships. I’m proud of my loved ones, but what’s nicer is that many people can call me their Friend. Among my friends, of course, there are girls whom I have known for a very long time, and even know their parents. My friends can always call, ask for help, invite me to a family dinner, offer to be a witness at their wedding or become godfather for their children. By the way, the last offer is coming more and more often (smiles).

Nowadays, it is not so easy to find sincere friendship: not selfish, without subtext, envy and anger. Even though I am credited with having a relationship with everyone seen in the photo, but for me attitude is more important those close to me, and not the words of those who are in my real life I did not see or communicate in person.

The hero of the show "Bachelor-5", football player Sergei Melnik and the winner of the project Marina Kishchuk broke up. In an interview with the STB channel, the girl admitted that she and Sergei Melnik are no longer together. At first the couple tried to support romantic relationship, but they did not last long.

“Everything was very good. But I saw that Seryozha was worried about work, worried about where he would play next - and this was constantly felt. He had a lot of questions about his future - and, therefore, ours. I stayed in Minsk for about a week and returned home to her son,” said Marina.

According to her, Sergei was worried about his work, he could not understand where to go - to another Belarusian team or to go to Kyiv.

“I asked him: “So what should I do? What to plan? - says the winner of “Bachelor 5”. “I have Matvey, there are certain difficulties associated with his leaving the country, I won’t be able to leave him alone for a long time.” Seryozha replied: “I don’t know. If I decide, I’ll tell you.” We never came to anything in common. He was silent until the very end that he was moving to Vitebsk. He told me when he was already there. After that, we began to write less often.”

Marina was the first to voice the decision to break up. It was she who suggested that Sergei remain friends:

“At the birthday party of his friends - Lesha and Lisa - we were sitting in a restaurant, and I suddenly realized that I could no longer live in uncertainty. The conversation between us didn’t go well. After the holiday I couldn’t stand it: “Come on,” I say, “you’ll come home.” , think about it, and we will make some decision. This is no good."

Seryozha didn’t answer me then. He left, and I understood that I wanted to finally dot the i’s and find out what was going on between us. And then I wrote to Seryozha: “We probably won’t succeed, since you yourself can’t understand whether you want to meet me or not.” I think so, if a person has no desire, then there is no point in fighting against closed doors. He didn't write for several days. Lately, Seryozha could often not respond to my text messages for several days. Then I suggested: “Let’s just remain friends,” and he agreed.”

Now the winner of the show “Bachelor 5” admits that she never fully understood Sergei Melnik. The girl hinted that probably serious development he was not interested in their romance.

“To be honest, I still don’t understand what’s going on in Sergei’s head. He still couldn’t make up his mind, and at the same time he posted on in social networks either our photos together, or photos from the finals. Perhaps if I had adjusted, if I had gone with him and stayed with him, everything would have been different. But I physically could not do this, because by law I do not have the right to take the child with me.

This means that I myself cannot go to him for a long time, no matter how much I would like. Yes, Sergei did not offer to move permanently, did not voice any specifics. During all this time, we never found an option that suited both of us. Long-distance relationships can only be built if this distance is short-lived, and it leads to a logical outcome - someone moves in with someone else, or both move in together in one place. This didn’t happen to us,” Marina shared.

Sergei Melnik became widely known in Ukraine after participating in the “Bachelor” project. Before this, few people knew the football player who played for Odessa Chernomorets for a long time. The life of the young guy flowed smoothly. Sergei's main credo is always go towards your goal. From the article we will find out how the guy’s life turns out after the end of the TV show.

Dry facts

Sergei Melnik was born in Odessa. In a family of ordinary workers. Mom was an engineer, dad was a machinist. Sergei has a brother and sister. From childhood, the guy was taught self-control and tact. At the age of 8, dad took his son to the football section, where the coach noticed Sergei’s talent.

Sport has always come first. In 2008, the guy received an offer to play for the Chernomorets club. Having achieved significant success there, Sergei moved to the Odessa team. On this moment plays for the Belarusian club.

Eligible bachelor

Sergey Melnik took part in the 5th season of the Bachelor project. A guy with an ideal figure, pumped up abs, blue eyes and a reserved character was loved by the whole country. Millions of viewers watched the love story.

Two beautiful girls reached the finals of the project: Marina and Lena. They were the opposite of each other not only externally, but also internally.

Marina Kishchuk is a girl who has already been married. She had a son, Matvey, whom she raised on her own. Marina impressed Sergei with her calm character. The girl had a lot of patience. Their dates were the most frequent, romantic, unforgettable. In one of the episodes, Sergei gave the girl a diamond pendant. The country gasped at the bachelor's generosity.

The second heroine was a girl with an eccentric character and charming appearance. Half the country wanted bachelor Sergei Melnik to choose her in the final. But it happened differently.

Life with Marina after the show

The audience breathed a sigh of relief when, at the post-show, presenter Rosa Al Namri announced that Sergei Melnik and Marina were still together. The couple spoke about the difficulties they had to endure on film set. It turns out that a spark broke out between the young people at their first meeting. It’s not for nothing that throughout the entire show the guy singled out Marina, made her unforgettable dates, and gave her diamonds.

After the cameras turned off and the spotlights went out, the lovers were finally able to relax, hug and start getting to know each other again. “The first thing Sergei did was ask for a mobile phone number,” Marina recalls.

Do not forget that Sergei Melnik is a football player who undergoes constant training and training camps. Immediately after the show, the guy flew to Belarus. The girl went after him. Since the finale of “The Bachelor” had not yet aired on television, the couple had to hide their relationship from prying eyes. They spent all this time together in Sergei’s apartment. We were only able to go to the cinema once.

Note that Marina has a son. At the first opportunity, Sergei flew to Ukraine and spent time on the playground with Matvey. The couple looked like a full-fledged young family: mother, father and child. The paparazzi did not miss the opportunity, and photos of the lovers appeared on the front pages of famous publications.

Sad love story

At the beginning of the year, information appeared like a bolt from the blue that Sergei and Marina had broken up. Moreover, the proposal came from a girl. She explains this tritely: “The relationship couldn’t withstand the distance.” According to her, immediately after the end of the show, Sergei left for Belarus. She flew to him. A romantic relationship began. But since Marina still has little son, she was forced to go home.

Further relationships continued through correspondence on social networks. Soon the girl noticed that Sergei had lost interest in her. I might not answer phone calls for several days. This was probably due to problems in the guy’s football activities. The season was over, it was time to decide where to spend the next one.

Sergei Melnik is a football player; for him, his career and game will always come first. And that's a fact. The girl was not very happy with this position. After another meeting with the guy, she offered to remain friends.

Currently Sergei Melnik plays in Vitebsk. The guy’s heart is free, which makes his fans incredibly happy. It's a pity that another show about love didn't end with a happy ending.

And his 23-year-old fiancee said that they are still together. But after the end of filming of the project, four months passed. What didn't they show us on TV?

SERGEY MELNIK

1. - I said that now we are starting to get acquainted again. And then Marina and I exchanged phone numbers.
2. - We tried not to appear anywhere so that no one would see us together before the finale, so we spent all the days, except for one trip to the cinema, at home.
3. - Marina had never seen me tired or even angry after a game or training before, and I didn’t know what she was like at home. A few days spent together help you learn a lot about a person.
4. - I appreciate Marina’s natural beauty and her inner feminine wisdom. It's calm and safe to be around her. I know I can trust her. I like her attitude towards everyday life, family, life, her seriousness and sense of humor. Marina is the woman who encourages a man to do things for her.
5. - I have a championship now, so I don’t get to go to Ukraine as often as I would like. But at least once a month, and lately more often, I fly in for a day or two.
6. - I haven’t seen Marina’s family yet since the shooting. When they came to the post-show, I was not in Kyiv. Our parents don’t know each other yet either. I met Matvey (Marina’s son. - Author) in Kyiv after the final: we played football and, it seems, got along well.
7. “My family has known for a long time that I won’t do anything stupid.” They accept any decision I make that suits me.
8. - My teammates constantly asked me: “What happened in reality, and what happened outside the cameras?” They joked and tried to guess the winner. They even chose their favorites and asked if I had their phone numbers.
9. - I think that the distance is not the most in the best possible way affects relationships. Therefore, I will try to do everything in my power to ensure that our story with Marina develops dynamically and to bring her to me as quickly as possible. But we have to take into account such an important factor as Matvey’s ex-husband and father - this is the moment that keeps Marina in Ukraine for now.
10. - Now I am in the midst of the championship. Last year we performed well and won a place in the Europa League. My professional goals for this season are to perform even better and have a successful start in the Europa League. As for my personal life, I want changes and will do everything to end my bachelor life.

MARINA KISCHUK

1. “I asked several times: “Is that all? No, really, is that all? We can do whatever we want?” And then she began to scold Seryozha for the fact that the day before he left after a date with the words: “I haven’t done it yet.” final choice". I was very angry with him for these words. I said: “Have you decided to test my nerves?” To which he replied: “Oh, you’re already starting a showdown!” (Laughs.)
2. - For me, this time (we were in Minsk together for a little less than a week) flew by like an instant: everything was easy and relaxed. Instead of romance, flowers and restaurants - short course conspiracy, going to the movies in small bursts and a field kitchen (smiles).
3. - There were no difficulties. Those were the first days life together when you don’t pay attention to some household little things. I tried my best to demonstrate my culinary talent, but Seryozha also enjoyed cooking.
4. - Seryozha is well-mannered, he knows how to behave like a gentleman, he doesn’t have bad habits. After the finale, when real life began without cameras, and especially recently, when we began to see each other more often, I began to notice that sometimes Seryozha likes to be silent and think. I try not to jerk him at such moments and teach myself not to think of anything unnecessary.
5. - Mobile phone, Skype. Fortunately, lately we meet more often and mainly in Kyiv, so for now I don’t live in two countries.
6. - We communicated very warmly and well with Irina Yuryevna and Marina (Sergei’s mother and sister - author). It was important for me that Serezha’s mother saw the real me, and I hope this happened.
7. “Mom didn’t suggest or advise anything, she just asked me to use common sense so as not to deceive myself.
8. - After each episode of “The Bachelor,” I heard the same question from friends: “How could he not choose you? So, trust men after that...” And I was silent like a partisan.
9. - You need to make a lot of effort to maintain your feelings and not go crazy with jealousy. Maximum communication, common interests, meetings as often as possible and it is better not to monitor each other’s social networks, since with each like, suspicions are layered on top of each other, doubts accumulate, and grievances multiply.
10. - My immediate plans are to find a job in Kyiv and take Matvey. I hope Seryozha will support me in this.

Sergei Melnik and his beloved Marina Kishchuk, despite the fact that more than three months have passed since the end of filming, are still together. The couple spoke about this during the final post-show “How to Get Married?” on the STB channel.

When the cameras turned off, the first thing Seryozha asked for was my phone number,” Marina admitted.

Besides me, now there is us,” says Melnik. - Marina is mistress number 1. I came back from training and everything was hot. Marina has a session now. But then I will do everything possible so that Marina moves to Minsk.

The protagonist’s friends, Lesha and Lisa, who spent a week on the project, are also pleased with his choice:

We are incredibly happy that he made such a choice.

In an interview with “KP”, which took place after the completion of filming, Sergei said this about his chosen one (at that time, however, he was still not allowed to mention Marina’s name):

- I said from the very beginning that I was going into the project with a sincere desire to meet a girl with whom I would want to build a strong relationship even after filming. My desire has not changed. Of course, now there are difficulties: everyday life, work, my training camps. But a week spent together in real life provides an opportunity to get to know each other much more than dating in a project, to understand character, behavior, and habits. After the project begins new life, and I hope that it will be much brighter and richer. Shortly before the final, I was finally convinced that my decision was correct. I remember how I didn’t sleep the night before the final (smiles). No, I didn’t doubt it, I just reflected, weighed it, thought a lot about different things.

SERGEY MELNIK ABOUT KISSING

I remember when I was just starting the project, even a kiss in front of the camera was unacceptable for me,” says Melnik. - But since “The Bachelor” is a reality, and a kiss is a natural reaction when there is a relationship between a man and a woman mutual sympathy, then at some point I stopped paying attention to the cameras. Behaved the same way as in ordinary life. If a girl and I wanted to hug, we hugged; it was fun - they joked; they wanted to kiss - they kissed. Now I can firmly say: I am not ashamed of anything on the project.

As the experience of the former “bachelorettes” of past seasons shows, after the show they usually find love very quickly. The fifth season of the project was no exception. The ex-participants came to the final post-show of the project “How to get married?” visited Rosa Al-Namri and told how their life turned out after the show.

Ira said that she found love... the very next day! The girl's heart was won by a project employee - a line producer of the show "Bachelor" named Alexander. The couple returned home from Amsterdam together, then Sasha invited Ira for coffee... Then everything was like in a movie. Now Ira and Sasha live together in Kyiv.

The girl received this chance thanks to an online voting that took place on the website of the STB TV channel: viewers chose the participant who, in their opinion, was most worthy of participating in the project again. She became participant Valeria Vashutich, whom Sergei Melnik sent home in the first episode of the show. He then argued his decision by saying that he did not like it when he was given ultimatums, and Lera did exactly that. As we remember, the girl took this decision of the Bachelor quite painfully.

During an online conference in “KP,” Lena Golovan admitted that in the final episode, in addition to various thoughts like “what should we do,” another one was spinning in her head. “I thought, if I slapped him, the country would forgive me for this!? (laughs). There would be an unexpected ending. But I restrained myself,” she says. She told our readers what interesting things remained behind the scenes in the relationship between Sergei, Marina and Lena.
