The legendary Russian hockey player married a pretty model: the network suspected a “marriage of convenience.” Alexander Ovechkin: biography, personal life, family, wife, children - photo Personal life of Alexander Ovechkin

The personal life of one of the best strikers in the history of modern hockey has never been characterized by consistency - he had many affairs, and only recently did some stability appear in it - he married a beautiful, talented girl. Alexander Ovechkin's wife Anastasia Shubskaya, the daughter of businessman Kirill Shubsky and the famous, recently deceased actress and director Vera Glagoleva, became the only beloved woman in his life.

The hockey player, not hiding his happiness from meeting such a wonderful girl, once wrote a touching inscription on Instagram under Nastya’s photo with a warm confession of his feelings.

They first met at the Beijing Olympics, where fourteen-year-old Nastya came with her parents. Only a few years later, Alexander, seeing a photo of Anastasia on Instagram, decided to remind him of his old acquaintance.

At that time, Nastya was already a graduate of VGIK, and Ovechkin was a three-time world champion. At first they simply corresponded, and when Shubskaya flew to Los Angeles to take acting courses, the young people met at a Washington Capitals match, for which Alexander plays.

The first date took place in a restaurant, and the young people found out that they had a lot of common topics of conversation. Anastasia and Alexander felt great sympathy for each other and decided not to part again.

The future husband introduced Anastasia to her parents, and in September 2015, Alexander asked Nastya’s hand in marriage from her parents. They also began to postpone the wedding for a long time and got married in one of the Moscow registry offices, after which they flew to America.

The newlyweds postponed the wedding celebration until a later time because of the World Cup of Hockey in order to invite Alexander’s friends from the team. The luxurious wedding took place at Barvikha Luxury Village, the hall of which was strewn with tea roses and hydrangeas.

Personal life of Alexander Ovechkin

One of the most famous romances in the personal life of the Washington forward before meeting Anastasia Shubskaya was his relationship with tennis player Maria Kirilenko. They dated for three years, but this romance never ended - the young people broke up.

Shortly after breaking up with Maria, Alexander began an affair with model Karolina Sevostyanova, but it turned out to be fleeting and ended after Ovechkin left for the States for the start of the new NHL season.

Personal life of Anastasia Shubskaya

Nastya is a graduate of the production department of VGIK, a model whose photographs periodically appear in fashionable glossy publications. She starred in two films, but her cinematic career has not yet progressed beyond that. Shubskaya devoted a lot of time to dancing, honing her half-dance skills.

This spring, information appeared that Alexander Ovechkin’s wife was preparing to become a mother. This news made not only the spouses themselves very happy, but also their many friends and relatives. Unfortunately, the joy was overshadowed by a sad event - Nastya’s mother, actress Vera Glagoleva, died.

This was a real shock for all family members, Anastasia for a long time did not appear on social networks and did not post any news about how her family life was going.

In these difficult moments, her husband became a reliable support and support for her, without which it would have been even more difficult for Nastya to survive such a difficult time.

Who was next to the athlete (by the way, quite loving) until his heart was stolen by the daughter of actress Vera Glagoleva? The girls who never had the chance to say the cherished “yes” to Ovechkin in front of the state registrar are in our material.

Victoria Lopyreva

They say with the long-legged beauty Victoria Lopyreva eligible bachelor and a womanizer (yes, Ovechkin was exactly like that!) met... at work. “Miss Russia,” who worked on television, decided to interview the hockey player, which did not end at the command of the “Stop” operator, but grew into a whirlwind romance.

The athlete was so interested in the model that, according to rumors, he even introduced her to his parents. But nothing serious came of the relationship: as Lopyreva later admitted, she quickly became tired of the machinations of the paparazzi, who always and everywhere - both in Russia and in the USA - followed on the heels of the Washington Capitals striker and our national team.

Lopyreva was, of course, far from the only model on Ovechkin’s “track record”. Thus, it is known that the athlete had a short relationship with Valeria Sokolova, the “ward” of the famous “pimp” Peter Listerman, who was involved in arranging acquaintances between businessmen and young girls.

According to the legend, widely circulated in the media, Alexander himself initially knew nothing about Sokolova’s relationship with Listerman. And when I found out, I threw it at the girl loud scandal. After that quarrel, Sasha and his fiancee (and Ovechkin - believe it or not - was seriously planning to get married!), who once did not disdain escort services, were unable to reconcile.

IN Lately this novel is called only a media invention - it seems too implausible. Meanwhile, it is generally accepted that Alexander Ovechkin’s list of love victories includes 40-year-old singer Stacey Ann Ferguson (aka Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas).

Although the hockey player himself never confirmed gossip about an affair with a singer who is ten years older than him, there is an opinion that Alexander could not resist Fergie’s charms when he met her one day in Toronto. True, the relationship did not last long: apparently, the heartthrob was scared off by the fact that Ferguson was already married.

Maria Kirilenko

But here there are no more myths and legends: with a bronze medalist Olympic Games With Maria Kirilenko, everything was serious with Alexander Ovechkin! The tennis player “lasted” next to the hockey player longer than all his other passions - the athletes were together for three years (-) and broke up only last summer.

Maria and Alexander were considered one of the most beautiful couples in the world of sports, and everything, in general, went towards the wedding: Ovechkin proposed to his chosen one, acquired a house with five bedrooms in Washington and was preparing to organize a magnificent celebration. But, alas, it all ended in failure: Maria broke off the engagement. According to rumors, the girl made this decision when she found out that her husband was having an affair with 19-year-old gymnast Karolina Sevastyanova. However, Kirilenko herself stated that in reality she was simply not satisfied with Ovechkin’s “habits and behavioral characteristics,” which she “did not consider necessary to tolerate any longer.”

By the way, Kirilenko quickly found a replacement for Ovechkin: six months after breaking up with the hockey player, she got married, and this summer she gave birth to her husband, official Alexei Stepanov, a child.

So, the hockey player switched from a tennis player to a gymnast. Caroline (who, by the way, denies in every possible way that strong couple Ovechkin - Kirilenko fell apart precisely because of her) was not listed as Alexander’s girlfriend for long, but he still managed to introduce her to his parents.

By the way, Sevastyanova was quite calm about the hockey player’s reputation as a notorious womanizer. "All guys love beautiful girls. Some people change them more often, others less often,” she said.

In 2008, 15-year-old Anastasia Shubskaya and her father, businessman Kirill Shubsky, flew to the Olympics in Beijing. It was there that the fateful acquaintance of Shubskaya and Ovechkin took place: at a party in the Russian House, the schoolgirl and the hockey player were introduced by mutual friends. We corresponded, met each other a couple of times in Moscow, lost contact, and then in the fall of 2014 we began to communicate every day. True, at first as friends - Ovechkin wrote to Anastasia on Instagram, and then called and congratulated her on her birthday... Four years passed - Anastasia Shubskaya became the legal wife of one of the best hockey players in the world - forward of the NHL club Washington Capitals and the Russian national team Alexander Ovechkin.
In Russia, a certified film producer Shubskaya’s career in her main specialty could have turned out well (considering her family’s connections to the world of cinema). Anastasia starred in three films as a teenager, and when she started dating Ovechkin she decided to study acting at the New York Film Academy. Now, having already mastered two professions, Anastasia Ovechkina plans to become part of the American film industry. Most likely, a beloved and understanding husband who dotes on his wife will help her take her first steps in the profession.

In the meantime, 24-year-old Anastasia - reliable rear in the mansion of 32-year-old Ovechkin. The couple dreams of children. “He often tells me that I combine in myself a friend, a girlfriend, a lover, a wife...” Anastasia says about his wife. Idyll reigns not only in the couple’s relationship, but also in everyday life. The young wife learned to cook and manage the mansion. Nastya grew up in a wealthy family, and now she lives in royal conditions, but how could it be otherwise for a princess who married one of the best hockey players in the world.
Ovechkin's mansion near Washington is estimated at $4 million. The mansion was built in 2011, the style is classic, the furniture is mostly wooden, the colors are light and pastel. The house has a living room, 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 3 fireplaces, and a swimming pool. The area around the house is half a hectare. The neighbors in the elite Potomac area (like our Rublevka) are the American elite - businessmen, congressmen, doctors, lawyers.

Anastasia's husband was more than wealthy - in 2008, Alexander Ovechkin signed a contract with the Washington Capitals club worth $124 million for a period of 13 years. By Forbes version Ovechkin’s income in 2017 amounted to $14 million. Income from advertising contracts per year is estimated by Forbes at $2-3 million. Ovechkin is involved in charity work, in addition, he invests 20% of the money he earns in American bonds. The hockey player has a financial manager who advises him on how to invest money correctly and manages his advertising contracts.
In addition, Ovechkin now discusses all his affairs with his wife. Anastasia goes to all her husband’s home matches, worries, accompanies him to the game, and at home prepares dinner herself. Close couples hope that this perfect couple in every way will soon become parents.

Bloggers discuss online gorgeous wedding 31-year-old Russian professional hockey player Alexander Ovechkin with his 23-year-old model daughter famous actress Vera Glagoleva Anastasia Shubskaya.

Guests of the event actively publish corresponding photos and videos on Instagram.

It should be noted that Ovechkin and Shubskaya began dating in March 2015. In the summer of 2016, the young people got married in a modest ceremony in a narrow family circle.

And on Saturday, July 8, almost a year after the painting, the couple played magnificent wedding in the concert hall "Barvikha Luxury Village".

Shubskaya appeared before the guests of the event in a snow-white dress with lace on the back and sleeves. Later, the bride changed her outfit to a more open one.

The groom, in turn, wore a classic black suit with a bow tie.

The hosts of the celebration were Russian singer Nikolai Baskov and showman, comedian, TV presenter and singer Alexander Revva, who performs under the pseudonym Arthur Pirozhkov.

Also seen at the celebration were many Russian celebrities, including Dima Bilan’s producer Yana Rudkovskaya, singers Olga Orlova, Katya Lel and Angelika Agurbash, Joseph Kobzon, banned in Ukraine, and many others.

The controversial musician Sergei Shnurov (Shnur) also performed at the wedding.

Russian President Vladimir Putin himself congratulated Ovechkin on his important day.

However, netizens did not appreciate the grandiose floral decorations and lush decorations of the guests. What caught their attention most was that the legendary hockey player did not take care of his appearance. In photos and videos from the celebration, he appeared with an unkempt hairstyle, unshaven and with a broken tooth.

hercegina: What kind of homeless person? And who is this beauty?

koscova1983: Maybe you can take out a loan and insert a tooth?

Lidianik: Was it really impossible even to own wedding shave and get a haircut like a human??? It's like he just took off his helmet...

beautystore_ast: Please insert the tooth

regina979797: Wow, what a groom! No matter how much money he has for such a husband!!? Looks like a drunk, creepy

marinanozhenkova: I didn’t immediately realize that it was Ovechkin. The first thought is, what a beautiful, well-groomed girl, but she’s marrying an alcoholic, and it’s not even about the teeth....

gozelenagoz: His haircut is not fashionable, he is dressed unkemptly (since the bride changes her outfit and the groom can change his wet shirt), not a groom, but a “mule in horse harness”

nastena6may: Damn, why is he such a Barmaley, huh!? Just put in a tooth and get a haircut and he’s a handsome man! Beautiful girl!

Maraladok: spalt is a zinger

Many hinted that Shubskaya married “out of convenience” and not out of love.

Number 8 - lucky number for Alexander. Under this number he plays for the Washington Capitals club, and on 08/08/08 he met the love of his life - Nastasia Shubskaya. It is not surprising that they decided to have their wedding on the 8th.

Their romance could have begun nine years ago, when they first met in the Russia House at the Beijing Olympics. Nastya came to China with her parents, and Sasha came as the main sensation of the sports world: he had just signed a contract with the Washington Capitals hockey club for a record $124 million. But then their communication was limited to just getting to know each other and slow dancing; each of them at that moment had other goals: Sasha wanted to fully realize himself in sports, and Nastya wanted to go to college. But you can't escape fate. 

One evening, three-time world champion Alexander Ovechkin saw his friend, VGIK graduate Nastasia Shubskaya, on Instagram and decided to write to her. This is how a virtual friendship began, and after a couple of months Nastya flew to Los Angeles for acting classes and met Sasha there.

We went to the restaurant. I admit, I was a little worried that we would have nothing to talk about, because we had already discussed everything on the phone. It turned out that we always have something to talk about,” Nastya said in her first interview with HELLO!.

The girl decided not to tempt fate any further and instead of a ticket to Moscow to see her family, she bought a ticket for a flight to Washington - to see her beloved. The young people did not delay the wedding, and last summer, when they arrived in Moscow, they went to the registry office, quietly, without witnesses, signed their names and flew to America.

The bride and groom got ready at the Barvikha Hotel & Spa, where they spent their first wedding night. For the most important day Alexander chose a Tom Ford tuxedo, Wedding by Mercury, a Brioni shirt, boots and bow tie, cufflinks and a Hublot watch

The status of a family man also had a good effect on Ovechkin’s career: he did it for the sixth time in his career - no one else has succeeded yet! - received the "Maurice Richard Trophy" best sniper NHL season, and earned his 1,000th point in the league, becoming the 84th player in NHL history to achieve this mark, and also entered the list of the 100 best NHL players of all time. Behind every victory and goal scored is a lot of work not only by Sasha, the coach, but also by Nastya, who surrounds him with care, attention and love.

“I used to be very worried about how he was there alone,” says Alexander’s mother, Tatyana Nikolaevna. - And now I’m calm. What else do I need to be happy?

Alexander Ovechkin with his parents - mother Tatyana Nikolaevna and father Mikhail Viktorovich - and Nastasia Shubskaya When in the spring of 2015 Sasha posted them with Nastya first joint photo on Instagram, many decided that they were just friends. Indeed, what can connect a brutal hockey player with a girl from high society? Nastya's photographs regularly appeared in glossy magazine in the section "The Most enviable brides Russia".

Shubskaya’s reputation, it must be said, is impeccable: her name has never appeared in scandals, and at events she always appeared in the company of her mother, actress Vera Glagoleva, and her father, businessman Kirill Shubsky, so the highest demands were placed on the groom. But time passed, and there were more and more joint photographs. Soon, those around him no longer had any questions: these two were made for each other.

Nastya decided to introduce her chosen one to her family on Sasha’s territory and, when Vera Vitalievna flew to her daughter in Washington, she invited her mother to hockey.

Mom turned out to be a very temperamental fan. Of course, I also always worry about Sasha, on the one hand, but on the other, he plays in such a way that you have to worry about everyone else,” Nastya admits, laughing.

Tough, brash and fearless on the ice, Sasha turned out to be kind and sensitive off it and quickly became part of his fiancée's family.

We, as parents, dreamed for a very long time about the day when our daughter would get married. And we are very glad that Sasha became her chosen one. We were struck by what an open, cheerful and sympathetic person he is,” admitted Kirill Yulievich.

A year ago, the newlyweds decided to have a magnificent celebration this summer. But nevertheless, they had little time to prepare.

We live in Washington, and it was very difficult to organize the holiday remotely, and Sasha was in season, and I tried not to distract him. So all our work began in May, when we returned to Moscow,” says Nastya. On the occasion of the wedding of the country's main hockey player, the doors of the Meiendorf estate, the residence of the President of Russia in the Moscow region, were opened for the ceremony. The couple's friends in evening dresses, accompanied by the "Waltz of the Flowers" performed by a live orchestra, walked to the flower arch and waited with bated breath for the appearance of the main characters of the day. Everything was perfect until one “uninvited guest” showed up at the wedding - heavy rain. But even he could not spoil the mood of those present.

They say that rain at a wedding - good sign“, and here it almost snows in July, so everything will be wonderful for the guys,” the guests joked, standing under umbrellas.

After exchanging vows, rings and kisses, the newlyweds went to a banquet at Barvikha Luxury Village.

At the wedding of Ovechkin and Shubskaya, people from completely different different worlds: athletes and actors, directors and coaches; While waiting for the newlyweds, they had a lot to talk about. Thus, Katya Lel learned all the intricacies of scoring in hockey from Ilya Kovalchuk, and Vladislav Tretyak was interested in news from the world of cinema from Stanislav Govorukhin. But as soon as the newlyweds appeared in the hall, all the pucks and hockey sticks, roles and movie clappers were forgotten.

The guests' eyes were focused on Nastya in a dress from Svetlana Lyalina and Alexander in a classic Tom Ford tuxedo. Like a true captain, Ovechkin was the first to speak.

I want to say thank you to my dad for spending days and nights training with me, and to my mom for monitoring my sports regime. I wouldn't be standing here without you.

During the celebration, the Barvikha Luxury Village concert hall was transformed. “We placed the main emphasis on the design of the ceiling. The decor was based on three elements: crystal, mirrors and flowers - hydrangeas, peonies, roses. It was a pleasure for us to work with Nastasia: she has an amazing sense of style,” said HELLO! head of the agency LID"S EVENTHOUSE Lidiya Simonova

The newlyweds decided not to delay the official part and, after kind instructions from relatives and closest friends, moved on to the musical component of the evening. Lyubov Uspenskaya was the first to appear on stage and performed the song “To the One and Tender” in a duet with the bride.

Once on Nastya’s Instagram page I saw her singing this song beautifully at karaoke. That’s why today I boldly give the microphone to her,” said Lyubov Uspenskaya.

During Lyubov Uspenskaya's performance, Nastya appeared in the hall in a new, spectacular outfit (dress, Galia Lahav, Blanche Moscow; jewelry, Mercury). It’s no secret to the newlyweds’ friends: Nastya sings beautifully. Gifts for the groom were the songs “I’m at your feet” and “To the only one, tender” performed by the bride

In the middle of the evening, when the celebration was in full swing, the music suddenly turned off and host Nikolai Baskov, with a phone in his hands, ran up to the newlyweds’ table. “Sasha, Nastya, the president himself is calling you and wants to congratulate you personally,” Nikolai warned. So that all guests could hear Vladimir Putin’s speech, Alexander turned on the speaker, and Nikolai brought the microphone to the phone

During the dance of the bride and groom and their parents to the song “A Girl Leaves for Another” by Joseph Kobzon, even the most persistent guests became emotional

The evening was not limited to the performance of the star of the Russian chanson and then began to more and more resemble “Song of the Year”: folk artists and the most sought-after musicians replaced each other on stage one after another.

Sasha and I immediately decided that Boney M. would perform at the wedding - everyone knows their hits. We also decided to invite rapper Basta, whom Sasha loves, and the group “Leningrad” - everyone loves them. By the middle of the evening, the bride managed to complete a “hat-trick” and change three outfits. For the culmination of the holiday - bringing out the wedding cake - she came out in a luxurious gold dress. The cake, more than three meters high, is another work by the master of culinary creations Renat Agzamov, caused delight and made all the guests take out their phones again. After the masterpiece was captured from all angles, even those who are always on a diet could not deny themselves the pleasure of trying it. So that guests could enjoy the holiday and not think about fatigue, the organizers prudently prepared sets with slippers, so that the most persistent shouted “Bitter!” and danced until the morning.

Click on the photo to view the gallery The Novikov Catering company was responsible for the treats that evening, so there were no hungry people in the hall. But when the wedding cake from Renat Agzamov was brought out at midnight, no one could refuse a piece.
