Ukrainian journalist Olesya Batsman and the famous TV presenter Dmitry Gordon are connected not only by joint work, but also by the common concerns of the family. “It is good when the wife is beautiful, but if she is also smart, this is generally a pipe dream. I didn’t even dream about it, but go and it came true”, - this is how Dmitry Gordon says about his wife. A charming brunette creates family comfort and manages to build a successful career.
