The key facts

  • Borodina called her weight of 52–53 kg “a lot” for herself and said she “even cried” over her reflection in the mirror

A confession on Instagram

TV presenter Ksenia Borodina told her Instagram followers (the platform is owned by Meta, which has been recognized as extremist and banned in Russia) that she is unhappy with her figure. According to her, she cannot get rid of the extra kilograms even though she leads a physically active life and does not overeat, and her reflection in the mirror does not please her. Gazeta.Ru reports this.

What exactly Borodina said

“No, I am not on any diets and I don’t inject anything, but I suffer a lot. I quit smoking more than a year ago. And my weight is 52–53 kilograms, which is a lot for me,” Gazeta.Ru quotes her as saying. Borodina noted that she does not consider herself fat and has almost no cellulite, but she is “not lean”: “My legs are athletic, yes, but I am not lean. And today I even cried about it.” At the same time, according to her, there is plenty of sport in her life: she plays padel for two hours every day and works out at the gym every other day. About her diet, she said that she “eats little” and gave an example: the day before, for the first time, she ate at 8 p.m.

Context

As the outlet recalls, Borodina recently showed her followers what she looked like five years ago and called her figure at that time ideal, something she can only dream of for now. The TV presenter has two children from different marriages: her elder daughter Marusya is from entrepreneur Yuri Budagov, and her younger daughter Teona is from businessman Kurban Omarov. In 2025, Borodina married Nikolai Serdyukov, who has a daughter from Alina Akilova, whom he divorced in 2021. The TV presenter has said that she became friends with Nicole and treats her warmly.
