Actress Alena Khmelnitskaya admits that she has long since moved on from her divorce from director Tigran Keosayan.

Khmelnitskaya and Keosayan were married for more than 20 years. During their marriage, they had two daughters, and the youngest was only four years old at the time of the divorce, in 2014.
That scandal in the noble and famous family was discussed by the whole country, as was Keosayan’s subsequent marriage to Margarita Simonyan. For some time, Alena Khmelnitskaya, probably worried about what happened, fell out of sight, but now she is actively filming again and looks absolutely happy.

“Now I’m really in a very good state, in harmony with myself,” admits the actress. “And most importantly, I’ve learned - perhaps precisely thanks to what happened - to be aware of my life. Previously, everything happened as if by itself, it seemed, according to the course of events you can’t influence in any way, so accept it, the day has passed, and okay. And now you live in this carousel, not getting any satisfaction. But now I feel the meaning and perspective of every moment of my life. the right rails."

By the way, not so long ago on one of social events Alena came with a handsome young man, and the media immediately began to speculate...
“No,” Khmelnitskaya laughs, “this is my friend, with whom we just went out together. I believe in friendship between a man and a woman, I have male friends without there being any kind of bullshit.”

For more than 30 years, Alena Khmelnitskaya has been pleasing viewers with her works, however, the artist herself believes that directors often see in her the image of a lonely and strong woman. During my creative career she tried her hand as a presenter, and also did business, selling fashionable clothes. In her personal life, Alena went through a divorce from her husband, but thanks to her busyness and demand at work, she quickly got over this sad period. For the sake of the children, the screen star got along with her husband’s new wife and is already ready for a new romantic relationship.

Alena was born in 1971 in Moscow. Her parents, ballet dancers, danced on stage Bolshoi Theater. However, the girl herself, having once attended a rehearsal of a new production, fell in love with the theater stage. After graduating from school, she entered the Moscow Art Theater School-Studio, where she successfully mastered the basics of acting.

Khmelnitskaya’s debut film was the film “The Corral,” in which she starred in 1987. And soon fame came to her: having played the role of the beautiful Leoncia Solano in the adventure film “Hearts of Three,” she captivated television viewers with her bright and talented performance. Now the actress has more than 40 roles under her belt, among which her work in such films and TV series as “The Most Beautiful”, “The Three Half-Graces”, “Mannequin” and many others can be noted.

Several years before the wedding there were only friendly relations, and only then did they start dating. A year later, a daughter, Alexandra, was born into the family. The girl didn't deliver serious problems star mother, and even in years transition period she remained a smart and serious girl beyond her years. The second daughter Ksenia was born when the actress was already 39 years old. Despite the age difference, the daughters get along with each other and help with everything. 22-year-old Sasha decided to follow in her father’s footsteps and is now studying at the directing department.
