The wife of hockey player Yevgeny Malkin, the spectacular TV presenter Anna Kasterova, is well known to fans of sports programs. A young, attractive girl hosted the Bolshoi Sport program and the Headbutt football show. At one time she was called the sex symbol of the sports channel. But today Anna is a young mom and the loving wife of a star hockey player.
Education and career of Anna Kasterova
Anna Kasterova was born in 1984 in the town of Zelenograd near Moscow. After school, the girl entered the prestigious Moscow State Pedagogical University and graduated from it, receiving the profession of a teacher of psychology. However, Anna did not go to work as a school teacher, but managed to get a job on the TNT channel as a TV journalist.
A beautiful girl with a model appearance perfectly behaved in front of the camera and spoke well. With a height of 170 cm, she weighed no more than 62 kg. Therefore, it is not surprising that soon she began to receive offers from other channels. A special diet and fitness regime helped Anna maintain her excellent shape.
The beginning of the relationship between Anna Kasterova and Yevgeny Malkin
In May 2014, Kasterova was sent to Minsk for work to cover the World Ice Hockey Championship. There Yevgeny Malkin met his future wife. At the time, the most successful Russian hockey player to play in the NHL was playing for the Russian national team.
Anna, sitting on the podium, was passionately rooting for our team, and after the game she went down to the players to get an interview with the famous athlete Evgeny Malkin. At this time, mutual sympathy arose between them. And although immediately after the championship, Evgeni Malkin flew to Pittsburgh, where he lived at that time, and Anya returned to Moscow, a couple of months later Malkin and Kasterova spent their summer vacation in the Maldives. The couple also celebrated the New Year 2015 together.
Throughout the next year, the center forward of the American hockey club Pittsburgh Penguins was repeatedly seen next to Anna. Evgeny Malkin had a relationship with girls before. But these connections were not developed. And only when meeting Kasterova, Malkin's personal life changed abruptly.
The couple in love had to communicate in fits and starts for over a year. Eugene was mainly in America at the training camps and NHL games, Anna lived in Moscow, working on central television. Contacts were made by telephone.
As a result, Evgeni Malkin began to insist that Anya move to live with him in Pittsburgh. Evgeny has a three-story mansion there. During this period, changes took place on television in Moscow. Anna did not want to work under the new director and quit her job at the end of 2015. Her favorite work no longer kept her in Russia, and she left for America to Evgeni Malkin.
Marriage and childbirth
In May 2016, Eugene and Anna became happy parents - the first-born son Nikita appeared in the family. Under the existing law, he became a US citizen. After that, in early 2016, Evgeny Malkin and Anna Kasterova officially registered their marriage in one of the Pittsburgh registry offices.
However, it was not immediately possible to celebrate the wedding in a festive atmosphere, since it was necessary to wait for the end of the playing season in the NHL. Anna Kasterova plans to take her husband's surname and become Malkina, for this in the United States it will be necessary to overcome a lot of bureaucratic moments.
The three of them live on the outskirts of Pittsburgh. Since the players of the Penguins hockey club are constantly busy with training or on the road, Anna often remains at home alone with her little son.
But the most difficult thing for Yevgeny Malkin's wife in America was the lack of her favorite job. Anna is not used to sitting at home idle. The rhythm of a big city is close to her character. And on the outskirts of Pittsburgh there is no metropolitan bustle, all the people around are calm, the feeling of living in a large village is created.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Anna Kasterova greatly misses Moscow and her former employment. A strong accent prevents a girl from finding a decent job in the United States.
Nevertheless, Anna found minimal activity, she became the "face" in the advertising project of a large financial company. Among other things, a young mother, like most women, loves shopping and often drives her BMW to local boutiques.
The head of the Malkin family, when the NHL games are on, has little free time. During this time, the wife pays special attention and care to her husband. Anna prepares Russian dishes for Eugene - borsch, cabbage soup, dumplings and dumplings with potatoes, which he loves very much.
Eugene is a picky man in everyday life and food, therefore, in this regard, the young mother does not have many worries. And little son Nikita has already chosen a small hockey stick as his favorite toy.
