Life after a star: ex-wives and husbands of Russian artists with difficult fates. Russian star marriages you might not know about

Of course, the concept of external beauty is very subjective and vague, but some celebrity couples look amazing - sexy men choose fat women, and the first beauties end up next to unsightly husbands. This once again proves that appearance is often not the determining factor when choosing a soul mate. 10 such unusual couples.

Salma Hayek She dated French millionaire Francois Pinault for five whole years before he proposed to her. Compared to the luxurious Salma, Francois does not seem attractive at all, and his scandal with Linda Evangelista does not add any pluses. But nevertheless, Hayek and Pinault are happy together and are raising a beautiful daughter, Valentina.

Pinault, by the way, is the owner of the houses of Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Alexander McQueen, but we want to believe that one of the most beautiful actresses next to him is not for mercantile reasons.

Chris Noth played in the series "Sex in big city» Mr. Big, Carrie Bradshaw's "dream man" and the man who chooses the most luxurious women. In fact, Noth's wife, Tara Wilson, is far from the ideal of female beauty. At the same time, when Chris met his future wife, she was a waitress.

Actor Vincent Perez married to screenwriter and actress Karin Sylla, a girl with a very controversial appearance... Many people would hardly find Karin attractive, but the actor is crazy about her: “I am a fan of my wife. I'm fascinated by what Karin does with words. This is a fantastic author, I have read many plays and scripts and I can honestly say that Karin has real talent!”

Another mysterious couple - Cate Blanchett and screenwriter Andrew Upton. Despite the fact that the appearance of the actress’s husband seems even a little funny, they had a whirlwind romance - the lovers got married a year after their first meeting. The marriage turned out to be extremely successful - the couple live in Australia and are already raising three children.

Model Lara Stone, who is famous for her magnificent figure, chose British showman David Walliams as her husband, who can hardly be called an attractive man. But Lara's wit and good sense of humor attracted her. The model herself does not hide: “My friends still make fun of my marriage!”

It's been 15 years now Hugh Jackman and Deborah-Lee Furness are one of the most notable couples in the sense that Hugh seems to be a very attractive man, and Deborah sometimes looks like his mother... "It wasn't the face or the body that I fell in love with," says Hugh. - I liked the character. Although, of course, Debbie also seemed to me a very attractive woman.”

Prince couple Albert and Charlene Wittstock shrouded in an aura of mystery - there were rumors that Charlene allegedly even tried to escape with royal wedding, but she was returned... And Charlene also seems much more attractive than her husband in appearance. Bald and overweight Prince Albert is clearly not handsome, but he is a very interesting and educated person. Perhaps this is what initially attracted the beautiful swimmer.

Star of the series "Lost" Matthew Fox and Margherita Ronchi have been together for 20 years - a record time for Hollywood. And this despite the fact that Matthew plays brutal handsome men, and Margarita is clearly in his shadow. Fox’s wife may seem ugly to some, but he himself says: “My Margot is amazing. I love absolutely everything about her, even the clips she uses to style her long hair.”

One of the most successful performers of the role of James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, he did not take a “Bond girl” as his wife. The actor's wife, Keely Shay Smith, is a pretty woman, but far from modern standards. Pierce loves her, despite the extra pounds.

Love is blind: who do beautiful people choose as their wife? star men, and why beautiful female stars take not the most attractive men as husbands.

Who said you can't get married once and for all? Why must early marriage necessarily end in divorce?

In February 2017, we confirmed that even in bright and windy Hollywood, long-term relationships are not uncommon.

What about Russian stars?

This year, Philip Yankovsky and Oksana Fandera celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary! In honor of the actress’s 50th birthday (November 7), “Letidor” reflects on the secrets of successful relationships and shares the love stories of the strongest Russian couples.

Vera Alentova and Vladimir Menshov

Family experience: 54 years

Children: Julia (48 years old)

Creative people don't get along easily. Vladimir Menshov and Vera Alentova will definitely agree with this. In the family of the famous 78-year-old film director of such films as “Moscow Doesn’t Believe in Tears” and “Love and Doves”, and the famous 75-year-old actress, disputes and conflicts constantly do not subside, but... they have been together for 54 years and cannot imagine that life would have turned out differently.

Vladimir Menshov and Vera Alentova got married in 1963, when both were students at the Moscow Art Theater School. The honored film director recalled this event in an interview with Sobesednik:

By today's standards, our wedding was more like a horror movie. We arrived at the registry office by tram, where the employees opened a bottle of champagne for us, although we did not ask for it. We didn’t even have three rubles to pay, fortunately the witnesses scraped together some change.

We modestly got married and went to the student dormitory to celebrate the event with classmates. And on June 28, 1969, the couple had a daughter, Julia, now a popular TV presenter, theater and film actress.

Over the 54 years of marriage, the couple experienced a lot - numerous filming, performances, constant absence from home and working extremely hard... At some point, the instability of their common life even led to separation. But Vera Alentova believes that this period of their life was necessary to maintain the relationship. In an interview with Arguments and Facts, the actress admitted:

We were then able to understand the main thing - that happiness happened in our lives when we met. And that our feelings were pure, hot and beautiful. Apparently, I was destined for this particular person, and he for me.

Today famous couple participates in joint projects, for example, in the play “Love. Letters,” directed by their daughter Yulia. And to this day, Vladimir Menshov never ceases to admire his wife’s hard work and perseverance, and Vera Alentova describes her husband as a reverent father and grandfather (grandchildren Andrei, 19 years old, and Taisiya, 14 years old - editor’s note).

Creative and emotional people? Yes. True love? Yes too.

Tatiana and Nikita Mikhalkov

Family experience: 44 years

Children: Anna (43 years old), Artem (41 years old), Nadezhda (31 years old)

When Nikita Mikhalkov and Tatyana Solovyova (Tatyana Evgenievna’s maiden name - editor’s note) met at a screening of Rolan Bykov’s film “Telegram” at the House of Cinema, both already had one marriage behind them, and the famous director was growing up little son Stepan ( common child Nikita Mikhalkov and Anastasia Vertinskaya, 51 years old. - approx. ed.).

Nevertheless, according to Tatyana Evgenievna, she immediately realized that she was missing.

He exuded such energy, charm, confidence, and also that mustache and the smell of patchouli. I died immediately, I flew after him like a moth to a flame...

She recalls in an interview with Woman`s day.

But the lovers did not manage to get together right away - soon after the meeting, Nikita Mikhalkov was drafted into the army and sent to serve in Kamchatka. The director did not forget about the beautiful girl and wrote touching letters, which Tatyana remembers with special trepidation.

Having returned from the army ahead of schedule and not finding her beloved at her old place of residence (Tatyana was forced to move - editor's note), Nikita Mikhalkov and his friend Sergei Solovyov went in search. Tatyana told Woman`s day:

They went looking for me in the winter, in a snowstorm, without knowing the exact address, only the street. We wandered between identical houses in a residential area and knocked on the first apartments we came across.

Doesn't remind you of anything?

The romantic story ended happily - the couple got married in 1973.

Today, the 72-year-old director continues to lead a brilliant creative activity, and 70-year-old Tatyana looks after everyday life and manages her own charitable foundation"Russian silhouette". In addition, the couple raised three children together, who gave star parents six grandchildren.

Ekaterina and Alexander Strizhenov

Family experience: 30 years

Children: Anastasia (29 years old), Alexandra (16 years old)

This star couple can truly be called a role model. Love and mutual respect reign in every word and action of the Strizhenovs. Alexander himself reveals the secret of success in an interview with Arguments and Facts:

Family life is team game. You play against the world around you, not against each other. Sometimes young couples confuse cause-and-effect relationships and start competing with each other. This is absolutely pointless.

But the artists’ relationship did not develop so smoothly - having first met at film set film "Leader", young Ekaterina and Alexander... did not like each other!

But the filming process gradually brought the actors closer together, and in 1987, having barely reached adulthood, the lovers got married. And they didn’t just get married, they got married, which Alexander especially insisted on.

A year after the wedding, in 1988, the couple had a daughter, Anastasia (in 2013, she married financier Pyotr Grishchenko, and lives with her chosen one in New York - editor's note). Nastya really wanted a brother or sister, and in 2000 her parents fulfilled her wish - Alexandra was born.

Ekaterina and Alexander Strizhenov - touching and caring parents, That's why successful career both did not interfere with raising children. Ekaterina shares that her husband spends a lot of time with his daughters and simply adores them.

In addition, personal life and work are separated - on joint projects, Alexander is strict with his wife, and Ekaterina admires how clearly he knows what he wants to see in her. And at home, the actress allows her husband and daughter Sasha to relax and be themselves - not making the bed, not washing the dishes, leaving candy wrappers in the candy bowl.

However, romance does not leave their relationship today, and the spouses are still ready for much. For example, to this (from an interview with Alexander Strizhenov on Telenedel):

When I was editing the film “Grandfather of My Dreams,” I suddenly saw my wife with different eyes. And - do you believe it? - fell in love again - with her acting talent, feminine beauty. I immediately wanted to match her, and I went on a strict diet, losing 50 kilograms in a few months.

This year, the star couple celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary with a trip to Shanghai. The couple visited a pearl village, from where Catherine brought a commemorative bracelet of 26 pearls.

Looking at this happy couple, you understand: true love exists.

Marina and Valentin Yudashkin

Family experience: 29 years

Children: Galina (26 years old)

The love story of Marina and Valentin Yudashkin began in 1987 with collaboration over the show - Marina was responsible for the hairstyles, Valentin created the outfits. It didn't take long for the lovers to beautiful words and long courtship to understand: they are meant for each other.

After only three dates, Valentin proposed to Marina, after another 10 days the couple submitted an application to the registry office, and three months later, in January 1988, they got married. Once and for all.

For 29-year-old Marina and 24-year-old Valentin, this marriage was the first and only, and the couple are still confident in each other and their feelings.

I'm a conservative, I have a family. And period. Cheating can only occur from a lack of brains in a husband or wife,

Valentin Yudashkin stated categorically in an interview with Arguments and Facts.

Marina, in love with her work, nevertheless left the modeling business to devote herself to caring for her husband and newborn daughter Galina (the girl was born on December 22, 1990 - editor's note), and does not regret this decision at all.

At the beginning of his dizzying career, Valentin experienced serious difficulties, and his wife was always there to support the talented fashion designer and surround him with comfort. Marina sincerely believed in her husband’s genius and was ready to do anything for him.

It is not surprising that Valentin Yudashkin considers his wife his muse and idolizes her, as he boldly spoke about in an interview with Woman Journal:

To say “I am grateful to her” is to say nothing. I greatly appreciate that she dedicated her life to me. She believed in me... It was very difficult to get through, but she was there in those years.

Daughter Galina grew up, married Pyotr Maksakov, the grandson of actress Lyudmila Maksakova, and in 2016 Valentin and Marina became grandparents. And recently it became known that Anatoly’s little grandson will soon have a brother or sister.

Today Marina Yudashkina has returned to the world of fashion and works together with her star husband. And this is how, by cooperating, respecting and supporting each other, the spouses managed to carry their love through 29 years of marriage.

Oksana Fandera and Philip Yankovsky

Family experience: 27 years

Children: Ivan (27 years old), Elizaveta (22 years old)

The Yankovsky clan has an immutable rule - marriages in this family are made once and for life. And these are not just words: famous Soviet actor and film director Oleg Yankovsky lived with his wife, Honored Artist Lyudmila Zorina, for 47 years of marriage, until his death in 2009.

In this, the son is clearly like his father - in 2017, director Philip Yankovsky and theater and film actress Oksana Fandera celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary.

The star couple met at a mutual friend's birthday in 1988, and their feelings flared up instantly. Oksana recalls their first meeting in an interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda:

On his part, I felt a pathological curiosity about my figure. My sociability and openness during meetings are not always adequately assessed... Philip is very reserved, therefore, even if he has some moments of dissatisfaction, he in no way shows it. Maybe that's what bought me. He showed me that this burden was not heavy for him.

Philip's famous parents initially reacted coldly to their son's beloved, but Oksana's pregnancy put everything in its place - a new family member joined the Yankovsky clan, and in 1990 the couple got married. Already on October 30 of the same year, their first-born Ivan was born, and four years later, on May 1, 1995, the couple had a daughter, Elizabeth.

Oksana’s mother helped the young people with raising their children, since, according to the actress herself, it was difficult for her and her husband to raise children - impulsive and artistic by nature, they allowed their son and daughter too much, becoming more of their friends than strict parents.

Lisa is four years younger than Vanka. When they were together it was a disaster, just nuclear war. Vanya talked to me like this: “You’re a girl, what a mother you are!”

The actress shared with Komsomolskaya Pravda.

Unfortunately, the love story of two bright personalities Philip Yankovsky and Oksana Fandera cannot be called cloudless - the couple survived the director's addiction to drugs, and rumors about infidelity on the part of both partners more than once arose in the press.

But despite life difficulties, the couple still remains together. Oksana Fandera, who celebrates her 50th birthday on November 7, reveals the secret of their warm relationship to Komsomolskaya Pravda:

I never torment Philip with jealousy or suspicion. I don’t sort things out, I don’t dictate my terms, I don’t give ultimatums, understanding that a creative person must be free.

Emma and Alexander Malinin

Family experience: 27 years

Children: twins Frol and Ustinya (16 years old)

The star couple Malinins found their common happiness when they were already adults, accomplished people. By that time, 32-year-old Alexander had already been divorced twice and was raising two children - Nikita (36 years old) and Kira (31 years old). 28-year-old Emma was also going through a breakup with her first husband and was raising her son Anton.

Their love story began at Alexander's concert - Emma saw the singer on stage and instantly fell in love, and on February 13, 1990, the couple got married.

Alexander Malinin described it this way family life in an interview with Radio Dacha:

Emma is purposeful, active - a whirlwind and an organizer. And I am calm and lazy. She is drawn to accomplishments, and I am drawn to lie in bed. We complement each other perfectly because we are opposites.

True, having managed to get burned at the first failed relationship, the singer did not want to have children, and, according to Emma, ​​she had to spend a lot of effort trying to persuade her husband. Her efforts were crowned with success, and what a success! After 10 years of marriage, on November 23, 2000, the star couple gave birth to twins Ustinya and Frol.

Now the twins are 16 years old, and they never cease to amaze their parents and fans with their talents - Frol shows himself as a talented artist, and Ustinya studies diligently and recently performed brilliantly at the Tatler debutante ball.

We can say that the couple of actor and singer Dmitry Pevtsov and actress Olga Drozdova is made in heaven. They are incredibly happy with each other, and their relationship is permeated with love and harmony.

The artists met on the set of the film “Walk on the Scaffold” in 1991, where they played lovers. As often happens, the screen story came to life, but with one exception: it was not an instant passion, but a gradually developing serious feeling.

I can’t say that after the first glance at Drozdova I was struck by the thought: “I can’t live without this woman.” But soon after we met, I understood and felt with my whole being: if I missed Olga, I would make an irreparable mistake. Until I doubted it for a second,

Dmitry tells the portal “Lady.mail.ru”.

By the time they met, both had a serious background: Dmitry had separated from his first love, actress Larisa Blazhko, and was raising his son Daniil (unfortunately, Daniil died in 2012 at the age of 22 - editor's note), Olga was not free at all - the actress had a fiance in Switzerland and one divorce behind her. Nevertheless, the artists decided to live together.

But Olga Drozdova did not want to get married again, so Dmitry decided to deceive - he gathered friends at the registry office and brought his beloved there, who thought she was going to filming. So, through the efforts of the singer, on December 30, 1994, they officially became spouses.

The couple dreamed of children, and on August 7, 2007, 42-year-old Olga and 44-year-old Dmitry had a baby. long-awaited son Elisha. The birth of a child was a real happiness, and the artists gladly accepted new role parents.

Dmitry speaks about raising children in an interview with Telesem:

I think that the most important thing in raising a child is to cultivate good nature. He must be able to love: give, help, protect, not regret something. But with all the love that surrounds him in his family, he must little by little prepare for the fact that he will soon find himself in a world where most people will not treat him as well as his loved ones.

Now Dmitry Pevtsov and Olga Drozdova continue to shine on stage and screen, they are raising a wonderful son Elisha and their feelings do not subside for a moment.

Maybe it’s a matter of working on yourself and your relationships, as Dmitry believes, or maybe it’s just fate?

In show business (domestic and foreign) special attention Journalists have always been attracted to couples where He and She are approximately equally famous. Despite the fact that the stars themselves prefer not to discuss their relationships, society columnists relish such novels.

Especially a lot romantic relationships between celebrities in the field of music and cinema. Let's start, perhaps, with the first option. Representatives of the fair sex of Balzac's age and even older knew first-hand the once popular performer Vladimir Kuzmin. He has several hundred songs to his name, including “Seven Seas”, “My Love”, “Heavenly Attraction”. Well, who doesn’t remember his sultry duet with Diva Alla Pugacheva on the song “Two Stars,” which immediately gave rise to a wave of rumors about their romance. However, this is a slightly different story... Officially, Kuzmin was married three times. The first wife was a poetess, a woman who wrote several compositions for Vladimir, Tatyana Artemyeva. She gave him three children. However, in 1985, their marriage broke up, and then Kuzmin decided to try his “musical” luck in America. There he met model Kelly Curzon, and she became his second wife. But this relationship did not last long. In 1992, Kuzmin returned to Russia and literally a year later began an affair with famous actress Vera Sotnikova. They said that the artists even lived in civil marriage. Their romance ended in 2000. Now the singer is married for the third time to a woman much younger than himself - Ekaterina Trofimova. Separately, it is worth talking about the numerous offspring of the rock musician. He had five children, but the two eldest died: Elizaveta was killed in her own apartment in Moscow, and Stepan died absurdly in a fire. He tried to leave the burning house along the ledge, but fell and fell from the height of the 18th floor. The artist also has two illegitimate children and even one adopted son, who pulled off a massive $50 million scam and now faces 97 years in prison.


The personal life of Kuzmin’s music colleague Vladimir Presnyakov Jr. is much less eventful, however, the figure of Alla Pugacheva played an important role in his fate. It was the Diva’s daughter Kristina Orbakaite who became his first wife. Both were quite young, the romance developed rapidly, very soon Vladimir and Christina began to live together, and in 1991 Orbakaite gave Presnyakov a son, Nikita. However, at the end of 1996, their marriage broke up. Nevertheless, the couple managed to save warm relations. In 2001, Presnyakov registered a relationship with fashion designer Elena Lenskaya (by the way, the ex-wife of another famous musician and performer, Igor Sarukhanov). Their marriage did not last long, and since 2005, Presnyakov began dating the singer, who appeared on the Star Factory project, Natalya Podolskaya. A few years later they formalized the relationship, and then got married. Now the press is looking forward to the addition to their family.


Largest quantity star couples observed in cinema. Every actress who doesn’t really respect herself considers it a matter of honor to have an affair with a director who, if anything, doesn’t promise strong marriage, so at least a couple of roles. Exceptions are rare. This can be considered the relationship of the Georgian director Rezo Gigineishvili and singer Anastasia Kochetkova. The couple cemented their relationship in September 2005; in the summer of the following year, Nastya gave her husband a daughter, Maria. However, the child did not save the parents' life together. According to rumors, Rezo and Anastasia did not break up very nicely, after which, apparently, the director realized that he needed to look for his chosen one in a slightly different area, closer, so to speak. As a result, in 2010, Gigineishvili married youngest daughter his eminent colleague Nikita Mikhalkov Nadezhda. A year later they got married. This marriage produced two children: Nino and Vano (Nina and Ivan, respectively). The couple diligently hides their children from the paparazzi, and prefers not to talk about their personal life. As they say, happiness loves silence.


A much more vibrant personal life is that of another no less famous (and perhaps more famous) director - Andrei Konchalovsky, who, by the way, turns out to be in some way a relative of Gigineishvili (his younger brother Nikita Mikhalkov is Rezo's father-in-law). There were many women in the life of 77-year-old Konchalovsky. He was officially married five times, four wives - quite famous women. For two years, Konchalovsky’s wife was the ballerina Irina Kandat. However, she was soon replaced by another ballerina. The second marriage of the director and Natalya Arinbasarova lasted four years. The third marriage lasted for 11 years. His chosen one was the French orientalist Vivian Godet. But television clearly attracted Konchalovsky. Since 1990, the director has been married to announcer Irina Martynova. Their marriage lasted seven years, and in 1998 Konchalovsky married actress Yulia Vysotskaya. Konchalovsky, like Kuzmin, has many children. The eldest - Yegor Konchalovsky - famous director(from Natalia Arinbasarova). Four daughters from other wives, including actress Irina Brazgovka. Vysotskaya gave Konchalovsky a daughter, Maria, and a son, Peter. A year ago, grief happened to the family: they were in a car accident in France. Maria received a severe traumatic brain injury, but by a happy coincidence she remained alive: a rescue worker was nearby in one of the cars, who called a medical helicopter, which took Masha to a hospital in Marseille. Thanks to the efforts of French doctors, Masha was saved. The couple, who did not comment on the misfortune for a long time, emphasized in a joint statement that the girl was slowly recovering and asked journalists to respect their right to privacy.


Recently, director Tigran Keosayan has suddenly attracted special attention from the press. With the light hand of blogger Bozhena Rynski, who reported about his affair with journalist Margarita Simonyan, media representatives are literally pursuing ex-spouses Tigran Keosayan and actress Alena Khmelnitskaya. It’s amazing how society columnists managed to remain in the dark about the affair between the director and the journalist. Until the moment when Simonyan gave birth to a son from Keosayan. This happened in September. Khmelnitskaya made Tigran a father twice: back in 1994 and 2010. True, Alena gave the director two daughters. The paparazzi literally went crazy trying to find out the details. They didn't have to wait long. Khmelnitskaya went out with a new gentleman, who turned out to be 45-year-old PR director Pyotr Lidov.
