Žalienė, who is raising two children, previously spoke with Delfi about her children's distinct passions. Her eldest daughter, Ūla Marija, from a previous marriage, is forging a path as a model. Žalienė supports her daughter's aspirations, noting her daughter's potential and her membership with a major international modeling agency. "She has the data," Žalienė remarked, emphasizing the importance of utilizing one's God-given talents.

It is necessary to use the gifts and talents given by God.

In contrast, her 7-year-old son, Benjamin, exhibits a profound interest in the natural world. His fascination with birds and wildlife is so intense that he studies resources intended for seasoned ornithologists and nature researchers. Their home in Britain features a dedicated shelf for books on birds and a special pantry stocked with nuts for squirrels and various seeds and dried mealworms for wild birds, which they distribute through feeders.

Benjamin reads and watches programs for serious bird experts and nature researchers. Not for children.
