Mar 2022

she and her children are in Kyiv with her husband. I had read that she was staying lat week.

She once opposed his plans to become president but Ukraine's First Lady has proved to be her husband Volodymyr Zelensky's most steadfast supporter and remains by his side after he refused to leave the country in the face of the Russian invasion.

Olena Zelenska, 44, has risked her life by going into hiding with her husband, their daughter, 17, and son, nine, choosing to stand with their countrymen rather than flee.

'I will not have panic and tears,' the mother-of-two wrote on Instagram in the hours after the first attacks last week. 'I will be calm and confident. My children are looking at me. I will be next to them. And next to my husband. And with you.'
