Dmitry Andreevich Shepelev is a famous Belarusian, Ukrainian and Russian television and radio presenter, who, thanks to his eccentricity and ability to attract the eyes of millions of television viewers, became famous.
Dmitry Shepelev was born on January 25, 1983 in the capital of Belarus - the city of Minsk. The family of the future celebrity was far from the world of art and cinema; his mother and father had a technical education and worked in their specialty. His parents loved their son very much and encouraged all his aspirations in every possible way. As a child, Dmitry was fond of sports, in particular water polo and tennis. In tennis, he achieved considerable success, entering the top ten best junior tennis players in Belarus.
Dmitry studied at gymnasium No. 11 and was a good student. Despite the technical education of his parents, the future artist himself did not like exact sciences, preferring humanitarian subjects. At school, the boy was known as the life of the party, he was cheerful, polite and pleasant to talk to, but he did not communicate with everyone. Even then, Shepelev approached the choice of friends and his entourage extremely responsibly.
Dmitry Shepelev also learned to make money on his own at early age. IN junior classes he earned money by distributing leaflets on the streets of the city. Subsequently, Shepelev’s father decided to encourage his son’s desire for independence and offered to work part-time at his computer company, which developed databases.
While still at school, Dmitry Shepelev’s biography was enriched by his participation in the filming of the program in one of the extras. The future artist was greatly impressed by the magic of TV. When his friend and classmate Denis Kuryan offered to try himself at the casting of hosts for a youth talk show, Dmitry immediately agreed. The guys passed the casting and in 1999 began hosting the “5x5” program, broadcast four times a week. Then Shepelev finally decided to choose a career as a presenter.
After graduating from school, the guy entered the Belarusian State University at the Department of Television and Radio Broadcasting. Soon he also enrolled in a local TV presenter school. He continued to work on Channel One of Belarus, and soon got a job as a DJ at the popular radio station Alfa Radio. His part-time jobs on radio and television channels were so numerous that Dmitry was forced to skip classes. Due to frequent absenteeism, Shepelev was twice under threat of expulsion. But thanks to his talent and determination, the presenter graduated with honors from the university in 2005.
TV
After graduating from university, the guy continued to work on Minsk television. However, the young presenter soon realized that the “ceiling” of his career on Belarusian channels could only be the role of a news anchor on the central channel. Dmitry wanted to participate in more creative projects, so I decided to send my video to the Ukrainian music channel “M1”, known for its non-standard and exciting programs. The channel's managers treated him very favorably, inviting him to host the morning show "Guten Morgen". In 2004 he moved to Kyiv. Here began a new round of the creative biography of Dmitry Shepelev.
The first time after moving was not easy for Dmitry. The channel gave him an apartment not far from the television center, but the presenter barely had enough money to live: he did not refuse to work as a DJ in hometown and was forced to constantly travel to Minsk to please his radio listeners.
However, the move had a positive impact on his professional career: in 2008, Dmitry was invited to the role of host of the popular musical talent show “Star Factory-2”. It was this project that brought the Belarusian presenter incredible success. He was invited to host two more Ukrainian television projects: the show “Karaoke Star” and “You Play, You Don’t Play” on the Ukraine TV channel. Such a busy filming schedule forced the artist to abandon trips to Minsk and work at the radio station. At the same time, Dmitry decided to try to make his way onto the Russian television screens by taking part in the filming of the musical show “Can You? Sing!” on Channel One.
In 2009, Dmitry Shepelev was offered to continue hosting the popular show “Star Factory-3”, but the presenter refused. At the same time, he received an offer from Moscow to join the Channel One team, and Dmitry moved to the capital of Russia. In 2012, Shepelev again became the host famous show"Star Factory Russia-Ukraine".
In the spring of the same year, Shepelev became the host of “Green Room” on the world famous music competition"Eurovision-2009". Here the guy gave it his all, holding more than 80 press conferences. For his work he was awarded the TEFI television award.
The Belarusian presenter continued his work on Russian television, taking part in the filming of the musical show “PROPERTY OF THE REPUBLIC”. Dmitry hosted the program together with the famous Soviet and Russian TV presenters.
Since 2011, Dima again began to live in two cities, returning to Ukrainian television. He became the presenter comedy show“Make the Comedian Laugh”, where he met the famous Ukrainian comedian. A year later, Shepelev and Zelensky began hosting the entertainment show “Red or Black,” which combined elements gambling and talent show. In 2013, he hosted his culinary program “Summer Kitchen with Dmitry Shepelev” on the Inter TV channel.
Creative biography Dmitry Shepelev added experience in writing a book in 2016. She is dedicated. Famous TV presenter explained that the purpose of this book is to help people who find themselves in a similar situation. Dmitry Shepelev’s book “Zhanna” went on sale in November 2016.
"Live"
In February 2017, it became known that the talk show TV presenter. The media immediately began to speculate who would replace him as host. It turned out that Dmitry Shepelev could become the next host of the scandalous TV show.
At the same time most viewers had mixed reactions to the news about replacing Korchevnikov with Shepelev. Many users on social networks openly state that they do not intend to watch the program at all in this case. Some social media users openly call for a boycott of his appearance on screens Russian TV channel.
On his Instagram page, Shepelev commented on this information, saying that he would indeed be hosting the program:
"Well. It seems my long "vacation" has come to an end. Here is the new host of the “Live Broadcast” program on the Rossiya TV channel. Start already in March. Who, if not me?
Personal life
Dmitry Shepelev got married while still a student at the Belarusian State University state university. His wife was Anna Startseva, whom the presenter had been dating for about seven years at that time. The young people decided to get married for very prosaic reasons: after graduating from medical university, Anna was supposed to be assigned to one of the country’s hospitals, and being married helped her stay in Minsk.
Dmitry spent no more than three weeks as a married man, after which he packed his things and moved away from his wife. In his interviews, Shepelev speaks extremely negatively in favor of official marriage, maintaining his image of an independent man.
In 2011, the first rumors appeared about the novel between the presenter and famous singer Zhanna Friske, former member group "Brilliant". The singer is nine years older than Shepelev. Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev met during the filming of the program “Property of the Republic” in 2009. In July 2011, the presenter flew to the singer in Miami to congratulate her on her birthday. This act gave rise to numerous gossip, but journalists had little faith in the existence of a romance between the two stars. Shepelev himself claimed in his interviews that he and Zhanna were just good friends and refused further comments.
However, the couple was often seen together at various resorts. In the summer of 2012, at the Moscow Film Festival, Friske told reporters that she and Shepelev had broken up. But literally a few days later the couple was together again. They went on vacation to Italy, and upon returning to Moscow, Zhanna introduced Dima to her parents.
Soon, Dmitry Shepelev’s personal life was inextricably linked with Zhanna. In April 2013, their son Plato was born. Dmitry and Zhanna have repeatedly stated that they do not plan to get officially married, but there were constantly rumors in the press about the date of their possible wedding.
Death of Zhanna Friske
Soon at Zhanna Friske's. At the end of 2013, Zhanna showed the first signs of the disease: her heart began to hurt. She stopped appearing in public and adding photos to her social media pages. An official statement about Friske’s serious illness (inoperable brain tumor) followed only in January 2014.
During these difficult times for Zhanna, Dima took upon himself all the concern for her health and well-being. He answered questions from journalists, sought funds for his wife’s treatment and negotiated with respected medical institutions around the world. As a result, the TV presenter chose a New York hospital, where Zhanna spent almost six months. When the singer began to recover, the couple moved to Jurmala, where Friske underwent further rehabilitation, but oncology still became a death sentence for the singer.
The funeral took place at the Nikolo-Arkhangelsk cemetery. Farewell to famous performer lasted several days.
Dmitry ordered that the entrance to the funeral ceremony be closed to representatives of the press. In addition, a funeral service was organized in the Yelokhovsky Cathedral. The husband insisted that the funeral service for his wife be performed in this cathedral, since Jeanne was baptized here, and “the ceremony itself will be closed from outside eyes.”
The son of the famous singer was not present at the funeral procession. Plato at that time was in Bulgaria with his grandfather, the father of Dmitry Shepelev. Relatives decided that it was better for the boy not to attend this event in order to protect his son from psychological trauma.
Scandal
Zhanna's death came as a real shock to everyone. Only at the end of 2016, Dmitry Shepelev openly spoke about his experiences due to the death of his wife. He shared this with the TV presenter in the program “Let Them Talk.” Society perceived Dmitry's confessions clearly negatively, because soon a video appeared on the Internet in which Dmitry Shepelev was captured in the company of an unknown companion while visiting the Lev Bakst exhibition at the Pushkin Museum. Social networks immediately began to assume that this was his new girlfriend.
In addition, information appeared in the media with reference to close people from the circle of the famous singer that Dmitry was dating Oksana Stepanova, who was Zhanna’s friend. It is assumed that after the death of her friend, the woman helped Dmitry with raising his son Plato.
His wife's death sincerely touched fans pop singer who sympathized with the family. However, many were still dissatisfied with the behavior of the famous TV presenter.
After the tragic events, Dmitry Shepelev was embroiled in many scandals. Vladimir Friske, who is Zhanna’s father, even went to court in 2016 to legally provide himself and his relatives with the opportunity to see his grandson and participate in the boy’s life. The relationship between Friske's common-law husband and her relatives only worsened after the publication of Dmitry Shepelev's book.
Many show business stars who personally knew the singer sincerely hoped that all the scandals between the warring parties would soon end. In particular, the singer, ex-soloist of the group “Brilliant,” said that no one can replace a mother for a little son.
The media reported that Dmitry Shepelev even wrote a statement to the police, saying that Vladimir Friske had threatened to kill him. In a statement, the TV presenter pointed out that the father of the famous singer more than once “threatened him with personal violence and even intended to attract third-party performers to carry out such actions.”
Russian publications, citing sources close to the singer’s family, reported on the family’s new decision - Plato will be raised by his father. Shepelev did not prevent Zhanna’s parents from communicating with their grandson, allowing him to take him to their place in the Moscow region.
Despite a certain understanding on some issues, the situation gradually got out of control, and a conflict arose between Dmitry Shepelev and Vladimir Friske. An active struggle began for Jeanne's son.
No less scandalous was the story of the collection of funds that Channel One viewers raised for the treatment of the singer. In February 2017, a hearing was held in one of the Moscow court institutions on Rusfond’s claim against the heirs of Zhanna Friske, since information about the money was never provided.

Later it became known that this was Ksenia Stepanova. But the presenter himself does not say anything specific about his personal life.
Dmitry and Ksenia met a long time ago. It was Stepanova who helped the TV presenter survive the bereavement. On the anniversary of Zhanna’s death, Shepelev himself wrote that after the death of his wife, there was a woman with him who helped him. This woman turned out to be Ksenia Stepanova.
At the same time, the father of singer Zhanna Friske accuses the presenter and his new girlfriend of planned actions against the family of the deceased.
Shepelev and his new wife published a photo: the death of the singer
Over the last few years, Dmitry Shepelev was next to his common-law wife Zhanna and did not think about his future. In 2014, a terrible diagnosis was made. Despite this, the singer was able to get pregnant and give birth to an absolutely healthy boy.
Ksenia Stepanova was friends with Zhanna Friske. Ksenia was the singer’s cosmetologist. And after the death of her friend, she was next to Dmitry and, according to many rumors, helped him survive the death of his wife and help him raise his son.

In addition, Stepanova is the mother of two sons and, more recently, a grandmother. And the fact that their journalists met them at the exhibition was nothing more than a simple coincidence of circumstances.
Some suspect that Shepelev is in a relationship with another girl, Ekaterina Tulupova. Spectators " Snow show Slava Polunena,” they noticed Dmitry with this girl. And, according to many present, the young people communicated nicely when arriving at the show.
Ekaterina owns the Creative Breakfasts club. The girl rarely posts her photos in social media, so it’s difficult to call her a public figure. There is also no confirmation of the relationship between Shepelev and Tulupova at the moment.
Shepelev and his new wife came out with a photo: a new scandal
Zhanna Friske's father continues to have a negative attitude towards his son-in-law. Not long ago, in an interview, he once again accused Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend of negatively inciting Plato’s son against his grandparents.
Friske’s parents believe that Dmitry has a relationship with Ksenia Stepanova, and at the same time, according to them, they began dating even before Zhanna’s death. Vladimir Borisovich said that Dmitry fired all the servants and entrusted the upbringing of his son to Oksana. This, in turn, hurt Friske’s father. After all, he believes that in this way the son-in-law is turning his grandson against his relatives even more.
A native of Minsk, Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend, who lives with him after the death of Zhanna Friske, found themselves embroiled in a scandalous story that continues into 2017.
The common-law husband went abroad, taking his son with him famous singer shortly before the tragedy. According to the relatives of the late star Russian stage, Dmitry took a huge amount of money with him and kidnapped the child. It also became known that his new girlfriend Ksenia went on vacation with Shepelev.
Relatives of Zhanna Friske believe that he acted immorally, tarnishing the memory of their daughter. But, despite all the statements in the press and rumors, Dmitry could not be brought to criminal responsibility. He provided irrefutable evidence that he acted within the law in carrying out last will singer and protecting the interests of her child.
Dmitry Shepelev was born on January 25, 1983 in a family that had nothing to do with show business. Since childhood, he was actively involved in sports, visiting tennis sections and the swimming pool. In the field of sports, he achieved great success, entering the top ten best junior tennis players in Belarus.
After graduating from high school, immediately after the ninth grade, the ambitious and self-confident young man entered the faculty of journalism on a state basis. Studying did not stop Dmitry from earning a living by using his talents.
Shepelev got a job on a TV channel and regularly broadcast on Alfa Radio as a DJ. But, after some time, he was invited to work at the Unistar radio station, where he stayed much longer.
In 2004, working for ONT, he accepted an invitation from another, favorite channel, M1. He was called to the position of host of the morning program “Guten Morgen”. Not wanting to leave his favorite radio station, Dmitry “chased two birds with one stone” for a very long time, working as a presenter on both radio and television stations in different countries.
He had to regularly fly from Minsk to Kyiv to delight viewers and listeners with his unique performances.
In 2008, tired of rushing between two countries, Dmitry Shepelev decided to move to live in Kyiv. The reason was an invitation to take part in the show “Star Factory-2” as a presenter. And after the end of the project, the young man immediately accepted an offer from the New Channel to perform in the same role in two programs - “Do you play or not play” and “Star Karaoke”.
After finishing work in the projects, in 2012 Shepelev easily moved to the Inter channel as the second host of the show “Red or Black”.

In parallel with this project, he acts as a host in the interesting music show “One Family,” where several families compete for a pleasant monetary reward, showing their talents in the field of music.
Dmitry Shepelev: and love story
Rumors and scandals accompanied the relationship between Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev from the very beginning. In August 2011, journalists first tried to tell celebrity fans about the creation of a new couple among the stars. But the public accepted this news, as another way to increase the singer’s popularity.
Despite all the facts, Zhanna and Dmitry continued to prove that they were just friends. And in May 2012 they were noticed again at a joint SPA procedure.
A little later, the first rumors appeared that the wedding date had already been set: 12/12/12. Trying to explain the secrecy of their idols, fans decided that Friske was pregnant and did not want to advertise her situation. And in July, everything turned upside down when the singer and presenter appeared separately at the film festival. As Friske commented on this situation, the couple broke up at that time. But the quarrel did not last long. Several days passed and Zhanna refused a lucrative contract with MTV for the sake of a joint vacation in Italy with Shepelev.
Birth of a son
Rumors that appeared in the first half of 2012 about Zhanna Friske’s pregnancy resumed in November of the same year. And only a month later, Dmitry Malikov confirmed that the singer was in her 5th month, which is why she postponed the joint work to a later date, when she could recover after childbirth.
Shortly before the New Year, one of the members of the film crew Blue light told reporters that Zhanna was not pregnant from Shepelev.
Son of Zhanna and Dmitry - Plato
The source of information believed that the baby’s father was a certain businessman associated with crime. But in April 2013, all the rumors died down, because the singer gave birth in Miami, and Shepelev was recorded in the “Paternity” column.
True, until the singer’s death, the couple never signed, which is why many disputes and lawsuits arose between Friske’s relatives and her common-law husband.
Circumstances of the incident
After the terrible tragedy in June 2015, when Zhanna Friske died of brain cancer, Dmitry Shepelev immediately left the country.
He justified his behavior and absence at the funeral by saying that he was fulfilling the will of his late common-law wife. Before her death, Zhanna gave Shepelev custody of their son Plato and asked him to take the child away and protect him from pain. The boy did not have to see his mother die and attend the funeral.
Despite condemnation from Friske's relatives and friends, Dmitry Shepelev, his new girlfriend after Zhanna and his son Plato set off on an exciting journey.
When the newly minted married couple returned, it turned out that the presenter, even before the death of his common-law wife, began dating her friend and cosmetologist, Ksenia Stepanova.
Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend after Zhanna do not hide their relationship and post online photos of a family of three, including their son deceased singer. The nanny who replaced dad while he was at work was also fired. Now he doesn't need help strangers who will raise Friske’s child.
Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend after Zhanna live together in the house of Plato’s new guardian.
Ksenia became a mother for the boy, replacing his real mother. She tries to take an active part in the life and upbringing of the child. This behavior upsets Friske’s relatives and causes a lot of speculation on this topic. But according to the law, there are no prohibitions on bringing a new woman into the house who can accept and understand the child.
Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend, cosmetologist Oksana Stepanova, support the policy pursued by her lover. She does not answer phone calls from Friske’s relatives and does not make contact with them. Dmitry and Oksana do not want the son of the famous singer Platon to communicate with people who could cause him moral trauma.
Failed meeting
Zhanna Friske's parents turned to the Guardianship and Trusteeship authorities for help to defend their rights as grandparents. In response, they received an official statement that Dmitry, as the only and official guardian of Plato, independently decides who is allowed and who is forbidden to see the child. If, in Shepelev’s opinion, a meeting with relatives could harm the boy’s psychological health, he has the right to refuse to allow them to meet.
After some time, Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend agreed to organize a meeting between Plato and relatives from outside ex-wife, but only on their terms. Grandparents can have contact with their grandchild in the child’s area of residence and only in the presence of a security guard who, if necessary, will interrupt unwanted communication.
At the same time, Dmitry urges not to raise the issue of his birth mother and her death in front of the child.
Outraged by this decision, Zhanna Friske's parents told Dmitry that their grandson must know the truth. But, according to the father and guardian of the child, in this case there will be no meeting with Plato. Therefore, in order to finally see their grandson, the grandparents agreed to the terms of the boy's guardianship. They love Plato very much and miss him, so they agree to any conditions just to see the child.
Whether the meeting will take place is up to Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend, who appeared after Zhanna Friske, to decide. At the moment, it is constantly postponed, and the reasons and arguments are not exposed to the public.
Litigation
The desire to see their grandson is not the only reason for disputes between the relatives of Friske and Shepelev. A huge amount of 68,000,000 rubles was collected for the singer’s treatment.
She was able to undergo a complex operation in America, and also travel around the world, restoring her health. Unfortunately, this didn't help. And after Jeanne's death, most of the remaining money mysteriously disappeared.
Friske's parents blamed Shepelev for the incident. But Dmitry steadfastly denied what had happened; in the end, evidence was found that the patient’s mother disposed of the money. Based on this, Rusfond won the court and ordered the older generation to pay every penny.
Also, during the proceedings, they tried to deprive Dmitry Shepelev of paternity twice. The first time it was lawyer Yuri Gashchin from Kostroma, who was a sperm donor. He believed that there were chances of a celebrity getting pregnant from his genetic material. But after Platon’s guardian stated that the grandparents would see their grandson when Gashchin stopped trying to sue his son, the Kostroma lawyer’s statement was quickly withdrawn.
But soon a new attempt began. Now it was announced that Plato’s father was Shepelev’s predecessor. There is no evidence or refutation of this fact yet. Therefore, Dmitry Shepelev with his son and new girl continue to hold siege.
Dmitry Shepelev was born on May 25, 1983 in Minsk. Today, the personal life of an actor, television and radio host is the subject of discussion for many. Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend are constantly in the spotlight of scandalous stories that have no end after the death of singer Zhanna Friske.

For some time, the young man managed to combine work on television, and had to film in different countries.
Dmitry Shepelev in his youthSince 2008, Shepelev finally moved to Kyiv. The decisive factor was the invitation to the role of presenter in the project “Star Factory-2”.
Then job offers came one after another. And in 2009, he was invited to Moscow as a presenter. So he finally moved to Russia.
His creativity and talent were not wasted. A clear confirmation of this is the “Actually” program, which he hosts on Channel One. Today, Dmitry Shepelev is not only recognizable, he is so popular that his personal life has become a general subject of discussion.
A short marriage is a mistake of youth
Despite his attractive appearance and the fact that Dmitry was not deprived of female attention, he is not one of those who can be called a Casanova. He had a girlfriend whom he dated for 7 years and then married her. But the marriage lasted only about a month.
The first wife of a famous TV presenter The couple divorced, as Dmitry says, they rushed into marriage, it was a mistake of youth. Then Zhanna Friske appeared in his life.
The romantic story of Dmitry and Zhanna
At that time, the charming Zhanna Friske did not leave the TV screens. However, the star did not talk much about her personal life. For the first time, information that Zhanna and the young promising presenter were together appeared in 2011, when journalists were able to capture them together in a photo. They themselves did not give any comments on this matter, but, as they say, there is no smoke without fire.
Dmitry Shepelev and Zhanna Friske After some time, they stopped hiding their relationship from others. Their romance developed rapidly. Six months after meeting Shepelev, Zhanna breaks the lucrative contract and goes on vacation to Italy with her lover. And in April 2013, Plato, the son of Zhanna and Dmitry, was born. But even despite this, the matter never reached the registry office. Dmitry proposed to his beloved, but they never had time to sign. Soon Zhanna passed away.
The reason for the conflict with the relatives of Zhanna Friske
Dmitry and Zhanna were not officially married; while she was still alive, when she was ill, he went abroad, taking their joint son with him. He explained his action by saying that the baby had no need to look at his mother’s suffering and wanted only one thing, to protect his son from unnecessary worries.
The famous singer's relatives considered his actions to be beyond morality, which was the beginning of a serious conflict between them, which has lasted for years even after Jeanne's death.
The famous TV presenter can’t make peace with Zhanna Friske’s parents Dmitry himself does not share this position, saying that he acted within the law and carried out the will of his common-law wife, who herself asked him to do just that. Dmitry was also accused of embezzling funds for personal needs, which were collected for Zhanna’s treatment of cancer. But this information was not confirmed and remained just speculation and nothing more.
Son of Dmitry Platon Shepelev Today's personal life of Dmitry Shepelev still haunts Zhanna's relatives. They can't come to a peaceful agreement with each other. Each of them defends their right to educate Plato.
Who is Dmitry Shepelev's new chosen one?
She became Ksenia Stepanova, who was friends with Zhanna and was included in her and Dmitry’s house. The girl worked as a makeup artist in the group “Brilliant” and was responsible for how the members of the group looked during filming and at concerts.
When Zhanna Friske left the group “Brilliant” and started solo career, Ksenia became her personal cosmetologist and soon their relationship went from just business to a strong friendship, erasing all boundaries. Ksenia almost always accompanied the singer on tour. So the doors of the house of Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev became open to Ksenia Stepanova.
Zhanna Friske and Ksenia Stepanova The singer trusted her friend unconditionally, as herself. Maybe that’s why Zhanna’s relatives cannot forgive her for this, considering their relationship with Shepelev to be a betrayal of Zhanna Friske.
Having learned about the illness, the singer’s touring life came to a standstill, but Ksenia continued to visit her friend and she continued to treat her with confidence.
The news about the illness of his common-law wife crippled Dmitry, all his thoughts were occupied only with this and, of course, he did not pay any attention to Ksenia, despite her constant presence in their house. He stopped appearing in public and giving interviews.
Care of Zhanna Friske
The relationship between Dmitry and Ksenia began after the death of Zhanna. Until this moment, the young man tried to spend as much time as possible with Zhanna and their son together. The terrible diagnosis sounded like a bolt from the blue. This became known to the public in 2014. Then Shepelev addressed everyone from the TV screen with the only request to pray for the health of his common-law wife.
The singer herself found out that she was sick while pregnant. But this did not stop her, and she made a firm decision to give birth. Despite doctors' prohibitions. The singer has repeatedly said in her interviews that she dreams of having a child.
Zhanna Friske with her parents Friends, relatives and doctors believed to the last that the disease would recede and Zhanna would defeat this terrible illness, but, unfortunately, a miracle did not happen.
As soon as she gave birth to a son, to whom she and Dmitry gave the name Plato, Zhanna, accompanied by Shepelev, left for the States for treatment.
Oksana Stepanova was nearby at every opportunity, taking care of Zhanna and her son. Since by that time it was difficult for the singer to cope with everything without outside help.
In June 2015, changes occurred in the personal life of Dmitry Shepelev. Zhanna passed away. At that moment he was not with her. He did not come to the funeral, remaining with his son abroad. Today, as Zhanna Friske’s father suggests, Shepelev lives with her friend, the same Ksenia Stepanova, and is raising her son Plato. Rumor has it that in fact the romance between Shepelev and Stepanova began before the death of Zhanna Friske. Whether this is really so, only they themselves know.
Today they do not particularly hide their relationship, periodically posting joint photos online. Ksenia is raising Zhanna's son, and they all live together in Plato's house, whose guardian is his father, Dmitry Shepelev. According to Zhanna Friske’s father, Dmitry refused the services of a nanny who was watching the boy, since now Ksenia, Dmitry’s new chosen one, is helping to raise the child.
Dmitry with his son Today, not only Dmitry Shepelev’s personal life is developing successfully, but also his career. He became the host of a popular talk show on Channel One. Dmitry works hard to provide his son with a comfortable life and so that the boy does not need anything. In addition, not long ago he published a book called “Jeanne,” in which he shares with readers how he lived for a year without his beloved Jeanne, who died so early.
And he says words of gratitude to all those who provided support not only financially, but also simply with a kind word. Before the book’s release, Shepelev decided to give an interview for the first time in a year and a half and dot the i’s. Friske's relatives were not present at the presentation for obvious reasons. The conflict that flared up does not subside to this day, despite the fact that two years have passed since Zhanna’s death.
Dmitry Shepelev now The singer’s father believes that it is Ksenia, Dmitry’s current girlfriend, who is preventing Plato from meeting with them. Dmitry himself tries not to comment on this in any way, preferring to resolve all issues regarding this topic in court.

In another interview with open sources of information, Friske’s father accused the presenter and his new girlfriend of deliberate actions against the relatives of the singer who died of cancer.
After Zhanna’s death, it was she who helped the grief-stricken man pull himself together; they had known each other for a long time - Oksana Stepanova had been friends with the artist and her husband for a long time. The girl met the lead singer of the group “Brilliant” while working with the once popular group, being their make-up artist and makeup artist. It was thanks to Ksenia’s talent that the artists looked so attractive at all performances, justifying their roles.
After Zhanna Friske switched to solo work, Ksenia Stepanova became not only the artist’s personal cosmetologist, but also her close friend. The girl accompanied the singer on tour; not a single concert took place without her. Gradually, the singer and her subordinate became so friendly that the fine line in their relationship between employer and hired staff was completely erased. Ksenia Stepanova began to enter Zhanna’s house as an old friend, whom the artist unconditionally trusted.
After Friske found out about her illness, her touring activities stopped, but her friendly relationship with her faithful friend remained trusting.

Dmitry Shepelev special attention He didn’t pay any attention to his common-law wife’s friend; at that time all his thoughts were occupied with the fight for his wife’s life. Therefore, I practically did not know Oksana closely, perceiving her as a stranger.
Death of the singer
Dmitry Shepelev got a new girlfriend after Zhanna, since no photos with Ksenia Stepanova and the TV presenter were captured.
For several years, Dmitry Shepelev was next to the dying Zhanna, without thinking about his future and who would become his new girlfriend after Friske left. The singer received a terrible diagnosis in 2014. Then Zhana disappeared from TV screens, posters with her name disappeared in all cities of Russia. As it turned out a little later, the singer learned about the fatal diagnosis while she was pregnant. It was a terrible time for everyone - in anticipation of Friske’s decision, Shepelev, the artist’s parents, and her friends and colleagues literally held their breath. Doctors promised a high percentage of healing only if the pregnancy was terminated.
Friske had long wanted a child; she and Dmitry had been knocking on the doors of various clinics for many years in a desire to find out the reason for their lack of children. Therefore, for Friske, the choice between the life of her child and a painful illness became obvious - she refused to terminate the pregnancy.
After the birth of her son Plato, the woman went to the States for treatment. This required colossal amounts of money - chemotherapy is incredibly expensive both in Russia and abroad. To help a woman live program “Let Them Talk”, all participants in the project asked caring people to help raise money to save the life of the dying Friska. The collected amount turned out to be much larger and was withdrawn 2 weeks before the artist’s death by her parents.

All this difficult time, Oksana Stepanova was next to her dying friend, caring not only about Zhanna, but also about little Plato– the sick woman could not care for the baby on her own. According to the artist’s relatives, Zhanna died practically in Oksana’s arms.
Rumors about Shepelev's new relationship
For the first time, newspapermen started talking about Dmitry Shepelev after the death of Zhanna and his new girlfriend, who quite accidentally filmed the presenter and cosmetologist’s joint visit to one of the art exhibitions. By this time, the presenter published online farewell letter to his deceased wife, trying to express all his pain from the loss of his beloved. In it, Dmitry thanks the gentle angel who saved him from depression and supported the man in the most bitter moments of his life.
He noted that for the first time he felt real self-care, which he had lacked for a very long time.
All journalists immediately grabbed onto these lines, trying to find out at least something about Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend after Zhanna’s death. General photo at the entrance to a popular gallery, became indirect evidence of the presenter’s relationship with another woman. Some publications diligently exaggerated the version of a long-term relationship between a man and his late wife’s cosmetologist, arguing that such devotion to someone else’s family cannot be based only on friendly relations.

On defense young man in 2016, the artist’s sister Natalya stood up. IN open interview the woman stated that Oksana Stepanova could not possibly be Dmitry Shepelev’s new girlfriend, and her appearance on the street with the presenter was connected with a general visit to the exhibition, nothing more. According to the woman, Stepanova is an exemplary mother of two sons, a faithful wife and a young grandmother.
New scandal
Not so long ago, Zhanna’s father, in his next speech, accused Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend of inciting the singer’s son Plato against his grandparents. According to the elderly man, Dmitry and Stepanova have been in a close relationship for a long time. Allegedly, their romance began long before Zhanna’s death, and the mistress stole document forms from her sick friend, which later appeared in court after a scandal with the return of money. According to Vladimir Borisovich, for a long time Shepelev hired a nanny to help care for Plato in his absence.
Now Dmitry has returned to television after a long career break, working on a new project on the central channel, which takes up a lot of the man’s time. He wants to provide his son with everything necessary for his full development and comfortable existence.
Not so long ago, according to the former father-in-law, Shepelev fired the incoming servants, entrusting the upbringing of his son Platon to Oksana Stepanova. This hurt Friske's father. He believes that the woman, together with her ex-son-in-law, is turning her grandson against him and his wife. As Olga Orlova told reporters, close friend the late Zhanna and Platon's godmother, Stepanova refuses to make contact and simply does not answer calls or respond to messages on the answering machine. They say, thus, the father of the boy, half orphaned after the death of his mother, was also left without the support of his godmother.
D. Shepelev with his son
Neither Dmitry Shepelev nor his new girlfriend commented on these rumors in 2018. After Zhanna's death, the presenter did not speak out very actively in open sources publications about the dirt that Friske’s relatives threw at him and his late daughter with enviable regularity.
Lawyer's opinion
The lawyer who helps the Friske family in all legal vicissitudes categorically denies Shepelev’s possible connection with Stepanova. We remind you that after Zhanna left, a terrible scandal broke out over money from Rusfond allocated for the treatment of the famous singer. The organization itself allocates funds exclusively for the treatment of children with cancer. An exception was made for everyone’s favorite and huge funds, collected in the shortest possible time from literally all over the world, arrived in her accounts.
When Zhanna died, it turned out that about 21 million rubles had disappeared in an unknown direction.
The court brought charges against the singer's parents and her little son, whose guardianship Dmitry formalized immediately after the death of his common-law wife. Then the artist’s relatives hastened to blame Shepelev for everything, telling scary stories by all means mass media about his far-reaching selfish plans in relation to his deceased daughter and her son.
Vladimir Borisovich, without mincing words, even threatened the presenter with murder.
They filed a lawsuit against Dmitry, trying to deprive him of guardianship of his grandson and take the boy away from his legal father, motivating their behavior with the desire to protect Plato and the property belonging to him from Shepelev. A whole investigation was carried out, which proved that the man is a worthy father to his child, loving, caring and attentive.
Therefore, Friske’s parents were left with nothing, simultaneously earning themselves a reputation as inadequate individuals.
According to the lawyer, Shepelev simply distracted public attention from his legal problems by mentioning the care of a tender friend who became a faithful assistant to a man in difficult times. In addition, the guardianship authorities regularly monitor any changes in Plato’s life. The appearance of a woman in the house, claiming to participate in his upbringing on the basis of a personal relationship with Shepelev, should have been reflected in Dmitry’s reports to the inspection authorities, but such action did not follow.
Dmitry Shepelev and his new girlfriend after Zhanna, Ksenia Stepanova, may be hiding their relationship so as not to become “food” for journalists and negative comments about them...
