Andreeva's beauty secrets

Despite her impressive age of 58 years, Ekaterina looks beautiful and has a wonderful figure. But the girl was once overweight when, after studying at the institute, she went to the sea with friends. And only there she realized how big she had become compared to her previous years. Her weight at that time was 80 kilograms with a height of 176.

Upon arrival from the sea, the girl immediately signed up for a sports club, where a fitness trainer personally created a diet, diet, and physical activity for her. So, after so many years, Ekaterina Andreeva prefers to see only natural ingredients in her menu. She appreciates Japanese cuisine, healthy fruits and vegetables, which contain more vitamins than sugar. Ekaterina never eats sausage, sausages, or processed foods, and has also limited her consumption of sweet foods.

The most important thing, as Ekaterina Andreeva says, is to drink a lot of water. And of course, the water should be purified and filtered.

It is also mandatory to eat vitamins, in particular ascorbic acid and a mineral-vitamin complex. And of course sports. Light, daily warm-ups in the morning, as well as full workouts every three days. All this forms the ideal figure of a talented and beautiful woman.

Childhood, youth and family

Ekaterina Andreeva was born in November 1965 (although some sources indicate 1961, but this version does not find any confirmation) in the Moscow family of engineer Tatyana Usacheva and Deputy Chairman of the USSR State Supply Committee Sergei Andreev. When Ekaterina was just a child, she had a younger sister, Svetlana. To raise her children, my mother chose to work as an engineer at the Almaz Central Design Bureau over the role of a housewife.

Ekaterina Andreeva in childhood

From the moment of Catherine’s birth, the family lived on Kutuzovsky Prospect, then moved to Leninsky, and then to the very center of Moscow. Since childhood, Ekaterina has watched the Kremlin and the Spasskaya Tower from her windows. In the late 60s, when Ekaterina was first brought to kindergarten, she immediately told the teacher that she “lives in the Kremlin.” Before the management of the institution found out who the girl’s parents really were, Katya managed to inform all the children about it. For such fantasies, Katya got it from her parents.

According to Ekaterina, at the age of three she decided that in the future she would definitely become a policeman. Since then, the girl happily tried on her grandfather’s military medals and cap in front of the mirror. The little girl often played with a plastic gun at the dacha and “patrolled” the village.

Little Katya Andreeva

In 1972, Katya went to first grade. The girl realized with despair that she was the smallest of her classmates, who gave her the offensive nickname “Chicken.” In high school, Ekaterina stretched out and even took up basketball seriously - the girl was destined for a sports career at an Olympic reserve school, but she had already chosen a different path.

After graduating from school in 1983, Andreeva became a student at a law school and entered the evening department of the All-Union Correspondence Law School (now Moscow State Law Academy). At the same time, she worked as an assistant at the Prosecutor General's Office. Having received a law degree, the girl began her studies at the history department of another university - the Nadezhda Krupskaya Pedagogical Institute.

Ekaterina Andreeva in her youth

In 1990, Ekaterina was graduating from college and was so carried away by writing her thesis, in which she compared the regimes of Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin, that she completely could not control her appetite:

I could easily sit in the kitchen in the evening, eat a frying pan of fried potatoes with chicken, eat it all with a jar of squash, for example, and wash it down with tea and my mother’s pies. I didn’t realize that I was getting better. There were no scales in the house. If someone wants to keep themselves “in the body,” then they definitely need scales at home; they cannot rely on clothes.

Andreeva admitted that her weight at that time was already about eighty kilograms, but she realized this too late when she decided to weigh herself. Then Catherine set herself the goal of losing weight, for which she methodically and patiently worked out in the gym and adhered to a certain diet. In 4 years, she got rid of twenty extra pounds, after which she seriously began maintaining her physical shape.

Television career

In 1990, Ekaterina decided to try her hand at the All-Union School of Announcers. Andreeva doubted her own luck, since some institute teachers considered her too distant and cold on camera. However, the girl was noticed by the central television announcer Igor Kirillov, who began to work with her.

Ekaterina Andreeva in her youth

In 1991, Ekaterina appeared on the central television “Ostankino” - her image of the “snow queen” on the screen immediately appealed to the management. For some time, Andreeva was the presenter of “Good Morning”, and in 1995 she appeared on ORT as the editor of information programs and the presenter of “News”, for which her strict and elegant appearance was perfectly suited.

Ekaterina was supposed to go on her first broadcast of “News” in the summer of 1995. From the screen she needed to talk about the hostage-taking in the Budennovsk hospital by Chechen terrorists. The girl panicked and asked to postpone her debut.

Later, Ekaterina recalled how her heart was pounding wildly before going on air for the first time, but she already clearly understood that no matter what the news was, nothing should unsettle the announcer. Despite the excitement, from her first news broadcast, Ekaterina realized that the Vremya program was her destiny. In 1999, Ekaterina was named the most beautiful presenter of Russian TV based on a survey on the Internet.

According to some reports, she did not have a good relationship with management; according to others, Andreeva went on long-term leave because she was required to replace colleagues who had legal days off for three weeks. The editors of “First” confirmed that the TV presenter ignored the uniform rules and did not want to work in a busy schedule.

Perhaps another employee would have been fired, but, according to a number of media outlets, Vladimir Putin intervened in the situation with Andreeva, who wanted to see his beloved presenter in her usual place, in the studio of the Vremya program, and Ekaterina remained.

After this, news about the dismissal appeared twice more: in 2015 and 2018.
And if in 2015 Ekaterina did not comment on such messages, then in 2022 Ekaterina nevertheless told fans about the upcoming changes - the presenter was temporarily obliged to leave the federal broadcast and broadcast for Siberia and the Far East. According to the channel, before the next Russian presidential election, a new format of broadcast news was tested, for which Kirill Kleimenov was invited to the studio, who agreed to participate in the experiment and set up new broadcast algorithms.

Thanks to this, Katya lost twenty kilograms. The popular TV star remembers this with humor and considers physical exercise an integral part of her life, but no more significant than family and work.

A year later, the girl managed to maintain her figure . When asked by journalists how Ekaterina always remains so attractive, she replies that it is enough to control everything you eat and not overeat. Ekaterina does not consider herself a gourmet, since gourmet food is not of particular value to her.

During the period of courtship, Dushko not only won the heart of his beloved woman, but also charmed her daughter and parents, who were at first wary of the foreign admirer of their eldest daughter. According to Andreeva, her husband is the embodiment of calm and order, while she herself is real chaos. The woman does not hide the fact that she has been happy with her chosen one for more than twenty years, despite the fact that he has almost no romanticism inherent in her:

This is some kind of match made in heaven. Happiness. Every day you wake up with a person and realize that you are not tired of him. And that you want to see him, feel his skin, inhale his smell, hear his voice... This is really a gift of fate that does not depend on me. Apparently, somehow I deserved it.

In one of the interviews, Ekaterina admitted that Dushko even puts up with her long-term smoking habit, although she herself understands how important it is to quit, but it is not yet possible.

The life together of Catherine and Dushan consists of compromises and agreements. The spouses are complete opposites. If he personifies calm and order, then she embodies chaos.
