Zenek Martyniuk, a beloved figure in the disco polo music scene, has found himself in an unusual situation—home alone—as his wife, Danuta, embarks on a month-long trip to Australia. The couple, who have been happily married for over 36 years, are not unaccustomed to time apart but this separation still carries its emotional weight.
Danuta's adventure began on March 17, 2025, when she departed from Warsaw’s Okęcie Airport, first flying to Dubai, and then on to Australia. The trip, aimed at visiting family, marks a significant moment for Danuta, as she has often postponed visits to her relatives living so far away. Zenek, on the other hand, remains busy with his work commitments and, although he will miss his wife, he expresses confidence in managing his time alone.
“I’m used to being alone at home,” Zenek reflects. “I often travel for concerts, so it isn’t anything new. But I will definitely miss her. You know, when you love someone, you feel that longing.” His affection for Danuta is clear, revealing the depth of their relationship, built on solid foundations.
While Danuta is exploring beautiful Australia, Zenek is keeping busy with new music projects and personal tasks around the house. “When I’m alone, I like to do home projects,” he states. Recently, he took the opportunity to clean and maintain his home aquarium. “I changed the water, replaced the filters, and gave it a good scrub. That kind of work relaxes me because there’s no one around to interrupt.” Despite his newfound independence, Zenek plans to frequent local restaurants and bars for meals, pointing out the convenience of having his mother living nearby, who is an excellent cook.
Zenek Martyniuk's current schedule includes preparing new songs in the recording studio and shooting two music videos, a busy agenda that should keep him occupied. He acknowledges that, aside from his domestic duties, he will soon embark on a Europe and Poland tour, further ensuring he will not be bored during Danuta's absence. “I will be going on concert tours next week, so time will fly by. Besides, I’ve got phones; I can always keep in touch with her,” he explains reassuringly.
Zenek's sense of humor emerges as he dismisses any worry about Danuta's well-being during her trip. “Why would I be jealous? She’s visiting family. It’s a good opportunity for her to relax, especially after all the struggles we faced with our son, Daniel.” Their son has had his share of issues, including a divorce and substance dependency problems, which had distressed the family. Thankfully, with recent developments, Zenek feels optimistic about Daniel’s future, showing support for his son’s new journey into parenthood.
The couple's bond remains strong even with thousands of miles separating them. Zenek reassures, “We will manage this month. Easter is coming up, and I’ll see her again around mid-April. I’m looking forward to celebrating it together.” Their enduring love, evident in his words, emphasizes that distance can’t diminish the warmth they share. Zenek and Danuta Martyniuk are not just a couple; they are partners navigating life’s challenges together, making time apart a temporary phase rather than a setback.
As they navigate these changes and challenges, both Zenek and Danuta illustrate the strength of commitment and love. With Danuta exploring new terrains and Zenek keeping the home fires burning—and preparing new music—both have their moments of growth. They exemplify how relationships can blossom even during periods of separation, keeping the flame of love alive.
In a world where artists often share their lives publicly, Zenek Martyniuk's private expressions of love for his wife provide a refreshing reminder of enduring relationships grounded in mutual respect and understanding. As Danuta enjoys her trip, and Zenek remains occupied, this couple shows that true love is not confined to physical presence but is, instead, a bond that withstands any distance.
