Biography of Nahapetova Maria Rodionovna. Soviet and Russian actress and director Vera Glagoleva died Anna Glagoleva, daughter of Vera Glagoleva

Anna Nakhapetova - Soviet and Russian actress, ballerina with amazing biography. She has many talents, because in creative path her family contributed. The girl achieved success in two industries at once, but does not stop there.

Childhood and youth

Nakhapetova Anna Rodionovna was born in Moscow on October 14, 1978. Her parents belonged to the acting circle. Father is an actor, director and screenwriter of Ukrainian-Armenian origin. Mother - actress and director. In 1991, she married a second time to a businessman. The natural father continued to participate in raising the children.

Anna has sisters - her own Maria, an artist and designer, and a step-sister (from her mother’s second marriage), the wife of a hockey player.

The talents of the future artist began to manifest themselves from an early age. She was attracted to ballet - the beauty, airiness and elegance of the dance. Therefore, the father enrolled his daughter in the ballet studio at the Palace of Pioneers. The girl was only 3.5 years old. There she studied until she was 9 years old and entered a choreographic school to pursue a career in the future.


As a child, Anya made her film debut. In the film “Sunday Dad” she got a small but memorable role of Nina, the daughter of a teacher. It is noteworthy that the teacher Lena was played by Vera Glagoleva, who is Anna’s mother in real life.

At the age of 10, the girl experienced a real shock when she learned about Rodion Rafailovich’s departure to America. As the ballerina recalls, her sister Masha experienced this event much calmer than she did.

“Masha is almost 2 years younger than me and, due to her age and easy-going nature, took this news more calmly than I did. And I became hysterical - I cried bitterly and shouted that I would not stay with dad, and if they took me by force, I would kill everything dishes in his house and I’ll run away.”

She wrote letters to her father, where she took out all her anger. She signed with her name and Maria’s name. The girls' mother corrected the situation, trying to improve relations between relatives. Glagoleva’s plans included touring America. The woman took the girls with her. There they met their father and stayed with him.

At first, the relationship between Anna and Rodion was tense. But the father should be given his due - free time he spent with the children. Gradually trust was restored.


After returning from the USA, Nakhapetova continued her ballet classes. At the age of 13, she transferred from the Leningrad Choreographic School to the Moscow Academic School, the class of Sofia Golovko, where she studied until graduation in 1996. After graduating, he immediately went to work at the Bolshoi Theater. There the girl participates in such productions as “Don Quixote”, “Spartacus”, “La Bayadère”, “Sleeping Beauty”, “ Scarlet Sails" and etc.

Movies

Anna Nakhapetova understood perfectly well that she would not be able to dance on stage all her life, because a certain age was set for the retirement of ballerinas. Those who stay until old age are few. Therefore, you need to realize yourself in other areas. And she, following the example of her parents, goes into the world of films.


The first work in the filmography is the Russian-American series “Russians in the City of Angels”. Father Rodin Nahapetov took over the script and production. Anna had a small role in this crime drama, but it was a good start in her career.

Further work is closely related to professional activity young actress. One of the most striking examples of this is the film “The Secret of Swan Lake” with a detective story. Often the girl played creative personalities- ballerina Maryana in “The Personal Life of Doctor Selivanova” and aspiring singer Lyudmila Rubina in the film “Upside Down.” The last appearance on the big screen took place in the film “Blockade” in 2016.

Theater

In addition to films and TV series, Nakhapetova participated in theatrical productions. At first she played in plays under the direction of Vera Glagoleva. The most successful was “Lyupof” by Stanislav Nikolaev at the Satire Theater.


Director Nikolaev attracted masters of ballet, music and acting to work on his brainchild. This wonderful quartet - Stanislav Nikolaev, Anna Nakhapetova, Dmitry Lozinin and Pavel Misailov - gave the action powerful energy, which is why the play was a great success.

Personal life

In 2018, the ballerina celebrated her 40th birthday. But her figure still evokes admiration and white envy (height is 1.68 m and weight is 54 kg).


In 2006, Anna Nakhapetova married her friend Yegor Simachev. They met while still teenagers, after which they lived for 10 years in civil marriage. They had a daughter, Polina. Despite a long-standing relationship and the birth of a daughter, the couple announced a breakup. But friendship has remained between the former spouses, and Simachev is involved in raising the child. Now the woman hides information about her personal life.


On August 16, 2017, a tragedy occurred - in Germany from cancer. This event shocked the family and the whole country. The daughters refused to comment on their mother’s illness or give interviews on this matter. On November 27 of the same year, Anna Nakhapetova and Kirill Shubsky received the “Word” prize, posthumously awarded to Glagoleva.

The ballerina's ex-husband said that he and his mother-in-law fought cancer together. Simachev beat cancer.

“I was eleven years old when my dad left for America. His film "At the End of the Night" was bought by the film company 20th Century Fox, and he was invited to work there. After some time, in the summer, my sister Masha, my mother and I went to the States. My mother played there an enterprise performance “Jazzman”. I was terribly happy about the upcoming meeting with my father, and suddenly, already in Los Angeles, my mother said: “Dad has left, he has another family. But you will see him soon and even live with him until the fall.” Masha is almost two years younger than me and, due to her age and easy-going nature, took this news more calmly than I did. And I became hysterical - I cried my eyes out and shouted that I would not stay with my dad, and if they took me away by force, I would break all the dishes in his house and run away.

My father and I were very close, and even imagining that he would no longer be with us seemed impossible to me, a child. And yet, my mother left us with my father’s family, and we... became friends with his wife Natasha and her daughter Katya! We must give credit to Natasha - she quickly managed to find an approach to us. She didn’t do anything specific, she just treated us very carefully and respectfully.

Now I, already an adult woman, understand how heroically my mother acted. I probably wouldn't be able to do that. After all, everything happened unexpectedly for her, and she loved her dad very much. But she was still able to overcome the pain, step over the resentment and pride. If she had not then allowed us to see our father or informed us about the divorce in Moscow, we would never have met with him again. I wouldn't forgive him. This is absolutely true.

The events of those years have already faded from memory. After all, everything bad is forgotten. But when a few years ago I was divorcing Yegor, the father of my daughter, the question of whether to interfere with their communication did not arise. Of course, you need to communicate - and the more often, the better. Yegor got married and recently had a son, Philip. Our Polina took this very painfully and shouted: “I won’t give him my last name!” We talked to her, and now she’s even proud of her brother, she filmed him on her phone and goes around showing him to everyone. (smiles) The happiness of children is paramount, and they need a father. I am against maintaining an alliance if there are no more feelings. But for the sake of the children ex-spouses you need to be able to negotiate. Recently Polina said: “I know: grandmother Vera and grandfather Rodion simply lost their love.” I don’t see anything wrong with the fact that at only six years old she already understands such issues. (Laughs.)

— Did you have to, how eldest daughter, support your mother during that difficult period?

— Mom was saved by work. She made her directorial debut with the film Broken Light. Perhaps it was her exposed nerves that made the picture so poignant. And taking care of Masha and I kept us afloat. At that time, I lived with my grandmother in Leningrad, studied at the Vaganova Choreographic School, and every weekend my mother, taking her sister in her arms, took the train and went to visit us.

They say correctly: time heals, and whatever is done is for the better. A few years later, my mother met Kirill, they fell in love and have been living together for more than twenty years. Dad and Natasha are doing well too. Their relationship amazes me. They are like people from another planet! They call each other ten times an hour, worrying, caring. They walk holding hands. Natasha is an excellent wife, she supports her dad in everything, even when he makes mistakes. They are like one. Dad generally knows how to love.

- IN adolescence did you give him trouble?

“I was passionate about ballet, I studied from morning to night, I came exhausted, there was simply no time left for nonsense. (Laughs.) That's why dad never worried about me. But everyone was worried about Masha, so her parents decided that she needed to live with her dad in the USA for some time. There Masha received training as a computer graphics artist, but then lost interest in it. Now she is an animal artist, she paints amazing animals.

My sister got married in America. But the marriage did not last long, and she returned home to Moscow. Now she is married again, raising her son Kiryusha, who is 9 months younger than my Polina, and is happy. Dad always gave us complete freedom, but we were still under his supervision. Both my sister and I knew that my father was nearby, that he would come and help.

— You and your sister have a very small age difference. You've probably been arguing all your life about who is dad's favorite?

“We don’t argue, because everyone knows that I’m the favorite.” (Laughs.) From early childhood, Masha and I were “divided.” I - father's daughter, and Masha is her mother’s. My sister is not offended, she knows that dad loves her very much too. And yet sometimes he can reproach: “Well, of course, you love Anya more, you always come to her birthday...” And he makes excuses: “Well, what are you saying? This is the same as determining which hand is better. You are both incredibly dear to me, and I almost never miss your birthdays either!” My dad loved me and loves me somehow incredible love. So it was, so it is and so I hope it will happen again long years. (Smiles.) She supports me in everything, always praises me.

But my mother, on the contrary, criticizes. For example, they both watched my performance. Dad’s reaction: “I cried with happiness. How wonderfully you danced!” Mom: “Well done, good. But here I could…” The criticism is harmless, but nevertheless it exists.

- Anya, when you look in the mirror, who do you remind yourself of - mom or dad?

- Dad! I recently visited him in America, we were sitting with him, talking, and I caught myself thinking: “Yes, that’s me...” (Laughs.) We are very similar, everyone notices it. And my mother says when she sees me on the screen: “Well, just Rodion.” But, by the way, many people think that I am more like my mother.

— When you were born, your father was 34 years old, he was a popular actor, the films “Slave of Love”, “No Password Needed”, “Lovers” had already been released. Did you realize that you got some kind of unusual dad?

— As a child, I really loved watching his films. True, how do “Torpedo Bombers” and “Slave of Love” end? for a long time I didn’t know: my grandmother turned off the TV - my father’s heroes died there. Of course, I was always proud that my dad was so handsome and talented.

In the courtyard of our house some women were constantly guarding him. Mostly they asked for autographs, but there was one inadequate one - she claimed that she was his wife. Dad gently explained to me that there are strange people, don't pay attention. I realized that I have a famous surname at the age of nine, when I became a student at the Vaganova School. As soon as one of the teachers addressed me by my last name, everyone turned in my direction with interest. Now, of course, they know my mother more and say: “Vera Glagoleva’s daughter.” And at that time dad was more popular.

Actually, my childhood was very ordinary. We lived in a small apartment, probably sixty meters, on Tishinsky Lane - my parents and Masha and I were in one room, in the other my grandmother, my mother’s mother, Galina Naumovna, and in the third - the tiniest one - there was my father’s office.

I’m amazed how parents managed to gather about thirty guests for their children’s parties! I don’t remember what was cramped, but I remember well what was very fun. House concerts were not uncommon. If my parents were at home, the five of us would crowd into my father’s office: he played the guitar, and Masha and I sang songs he composed. Despite the fact that he never knew musical notation. These are probably the happiest memories of my childhood. I was recently in America on tour with the Bolshoi Theater and stopped by for a few days to visit my dad and Natasha. In the morning I lie by the pool, sunbathe. Then dad comes with a guitar, sits down next to me and starts singing those same songs to me. How touching it was... When I was little, I loved waking up very early, with my dad. Mom and Masha are sleeping, and we are preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Cheesecakes, coffee. And we talk... And now, when I visit him, he gets up early and wakes me up the same way as in childhood: “Anya, let’s go have breakfast.” Here’s another memory: I’m six and a half years old, Masha is five, dad is taking us and grandma to Iksha, to the house of creativity. We sit quietly in the car and smile in anticipation of the coming happiness. How good it was there! I remember that Kryuchkov, Smoktunovsky and many other legendary artists rested there.

Recently I found my letters to my father. He was on the set, and I locked myself in the room, opened a lined notebook and started writing to him about everything that was happening to us, especially a lot of stories about Iksha. I often wrote for Masha, because she did not like the epistolary genre. And so that dad wouldn’t be upset, Masha signed her name at the end of the letter. (Laughs.) He probably understood that I was trying, but he didn’t show it.

- Apparently, your dad spoiled you a lot...

“It was such a time that you couldn’t really spoil it.” The only thing that dad brought Masha and me from abroad was Coca-Cola, chewing gum and, for some reason, coconuts. The dresses were given to us by our wonderful godfather Dima, he lived in America. No, we were never spoiled. In Leningrad, my grandmother and I filmed communal apartment room. A few years ago I visited there and left with tears in my eyes. The room is about six meters long, and Masha and my mother also came to visit us. The bathroom was infested with cockroaches. You walk in, and the floor moves... And nothing - they lived somehow.

Several times I heard from friends: “You, Anya, the daughter of famous parents, don’t know life!” But this is a big misconception - I know life. We've never been particularly chic - this time. Secondly, I had to work very hard because the children of celebrities are treated like this: ah! They have everything through connections.

Maybe that’s why my parents didn’t want me to follow in their footsteps—we would have been compared all my life. When my dad picked me up from the maternity hospital, he said: “She will be a ballerina.” It always seemed to him that ballet girls were fairies, they were from another world, fluttering around the stage... Thanks to my dad, from the age of three I had a goal - I dreamed of dancing in Bolshoi Theater. And now I’ve been appearing on its stage for sixteen seasons. (Smiles.) When I was studying in the preparatory class of the Moscow Choreographic School at the Bolshoi Theater, a group was formed from us, children of famous parents. It seemed to dad that there was less load there. He went to the director and asked to transfer me to “normal” children. But on the contrary - to ask me for favors - this has never happened. Sometimes dad advises: “Go to the management of the theater and say that you want to try this role.” I laugh: “Dad, but you didn’t teach me to ask.” - “Yes... I’m like that myself... I’ll never ask for anything.” Although I could! In 1985, he was given the title “People’s Artist of the RSFSR,” but no benefits followed. We had ordinary Lada cars, the same apartment. My parents did not and do not have star fever at all. Now one of the young people will star in a couple of films, and you won’t be able to approach him: so much ambition - where does it come from?! And my mom and dad - simple people: friendly, modest. I never heard any of them talk down to me. When dad comes to Moscow, he takes the metro. The older generation recognizes him.

— Ballet is ballet, but you act in films, play in theaters. How did it happen that you finally became an actress?

— The genes woke up and took their toll. As a child, I starred in the film “Sunday Dad.” Then, 20 years later, she started working in TV series.

— Usually, when choosing a life partner, a girl looks for something like her father. Are you an exception?

— My dad left us when I was 12 years old, I was raised by my second dad, my mother’s husband. Therefore in my the ideal man features of both the pope and Cyril are collected. The main thing is that your loved one understands, loves, appreciates, does not betray and supports you in everything.

- What do you value your father for most?

- He is extraordinary in every sense. A simple boy from Dnepropetrovsk, born during the war, in 1944, in the Rodina partisan detachment. And he was named after this partisan detachment- Rodion.

Oddly enough, he told us little about his mother. Although he loved her very much. We knew that her name was Galya; she died when he was in his early twenties. The amazing story about how she, a partisan messenger, walked pregnant across the front line, became known to us much later. In America, dad wrote and published the book “In Love.” I think his mother's story is sacred to him.

When I read this book, my blood ran cold. I can’t imagine how a young woman could survive so much trouble! And yet it was in vain that dad didn’t initiate Masha and me into all this. Either he was taking care of the child’s psyche, or he was afraid of something: times were difficult, and his mother opposed Soviet power, passed the camps, then compulsory treatment in a psychiatric hospital. In the 1960s, all dissidents were sent there. Dad walked towards his goal, knowing that mom believed in him. They lived from hand to mouth, and she borrowed money from friends, bought her son a ticket to Moscow and sent him to enroll in VGIK. Dad said that while his dorm mates were walking and drinking, he sat with a book and read, read, read... He became an actor, then graduated from the Higher Directing Courses.

Dad is very closed person. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you about his life in detail. I keep urging him to quickly finish the second book, this time about today, also autobiographical. He, of course, has something to tell. Just friendship with Ray Bradbury is worth it!

They met about six years ago. I know that dad gave Ray a disc with his graduation film “Dandelion Wine,” which was based on his novel. Bradbury was delighted. That's how they became friends. And shortly before his death, Ray transferred all rights to this book to his dad.

— What is Rodion doing now?

- He wrote interesting scenario, one large film company bought it. It is not yet known whether dad will be the director. And his arrival in Moscow is being postponed and postponed. Next summer I want to send Polina to him. Communication with a person like her grandfather Rodion will only be beneficial. Yesterday we called him on Skype, and Polina whispered in his ear: “I don’t know what to call him - Rodion or grandfather Rodion?” I answer: “Speak - Rodion.” The word “grandfather” is completely inapplicable to dad. In a couple of years he will be seventy, but it’s impossible to believe. He himself says: “Time flew by so quickly that I didn’t even have time to look back.” He has not changed at all over the years, as soft and intelligent as he was. Perhaps even too soft... B modern world It’s not easy to live with such qualities.

—What is your father's ideal pastime?

- This is the time when he communicates with us! We may be separated by an ocean, but I know for sure: he thinks about me as often as I think about him. (Laughs.) On this New Year Santa Claus came to my Polina and asked: “Girl, what’s your name?” And she, for some unknown reason, answers: “Polina Nakhapetova.” We were amazed: “You’re Simacheva!” She is probably also very proud of Rodion Nakhapetov, her grandfather.

Rodion Nakhapetov was born on January 21, 1944 in the city of Pyatikhatki, Dnepropetrovsk region of the Ukrainian SSR, during the bombing in the ruins of one of the houses where his mother was hiding - liaison underground organization "Rodina".

Father - Rafail Tatevosovich Nakhapetov - Armenian. They met Rodion Nakhapetov’s mother in a partisan detachment in Krivoy Rog. After the end of the Great Patriotic War the father returned to Armenia, where he already had a family. Until the age of ten, Rodion Nakhapetov considered his father to have died in the war.

Mother - Galina Antonovna Prokopenko (1922-1966), Ukrainian, worked as a teacher in a rural school.

For some time Rodion Nakhapetov had a stepfather - school teacher mathematician, who left the family during the period that coincided with the onset of his mother’s illness.

After the war, Rodion lived with his grandmother in the village of Skalevatka in Krivoy Rog, from where he moved with his mother to Dnepropetrovsk in 1949. During the first years in Dnepropetrovsk, the family rented a corner with a bed and was in severe financial need. Rodion's mother first worked as a pioneer leader in a pioneer camp, and from September 1950 as a teacher. Ukrainian language and literature in high school No. 34 Dnepropetrovsk.

In 1951, at the age of 29, her mother was diagnosed with tuberculosis, for which she was hospitalized, and the young Rodion Nakhapetov, with the assistance of the school, was sent to be raised in Orphanage in Novomoskovsk. In 1954, after being discharged from the hospital, his mother took Rodion from Children's home.

Working for some time as a teacher in a camp for political prisoners, Rodion’s mother helped the prisoners by handing over their letters to the outside world. In the spring of 1962, after she wrote a letter to N. Khrushchev so that he would figure everything out, for her activity in helping political prisoners she was assigned to treatment in mental asylum on Igreni. After some time, Rodion managed to rescue her from there, but she soon died of cancer, which he believed was caused by injections. Later, Nakhapetov made the film “Psychiatric Hospital” (“Infection”) about this case. According to Nakhapetov’s recollections, working on the script had an extremely strong emotional impact on him.

Poor post-war life and constant material need strengthened Nakhapetov’s character and fostered the desire to escape poverty at any cost and become famous person. Being already famous Soviet actor Having arrived in Dnepropetrovsk in the early 1970s, Nakhapetov said at a meeting with a childhood friend that he would probably never return to this city.

Childhood friends recall that Nakhapetov was an uncommunicative, but docile and not pugnacious boy. He didn’t like to go out with friends, preferring playing chess, reading books, and participating in a drama club to entertainment. He suffered from allergies, from which, contrary to expectations, he was cured with water from an unremarkable source in a city park, succumbing to the trick of his friends, who dragged him out for a walk in this way.

Nakhapetov’s closest friend was the actor Zhenya Bezrukavy, who graduated from the same school No. 34. Following him, Rodya went to the Dnepropetrovsk Theater School, earning the nickname “acture” from the street kids. The nickname did not upset him, but only pushed him to take decisive action, and, without finishing his studies, in 1960 he left for Moscow.

Thanks to his mother, who paid great attention to his upbringing, Nakhapetov became interested in science fiction literature while still at school. He was involved in a ship-making group and was seriously interested in drawing and music, but for family reasons he was unable to develop these skills. The strongest was his passion for theater, which was facilitated by classes in the drama club at the Palace of Culture, where he acquired his first acting skills. Nakhapetov’s desire to become an actor strengthened after he attended a creative meeting with famous actors domestic cinema of that time - Boris Andreev, Marina Ladynina, Sergei Bondarchuk.

After graduating from school, at the age of 16, on the first try he entered the acting department of VGIK (workshop of Yuli Raizman). Due to the fact that Raizman, due to his busy filming, paid little attention to the group, the future actor was trained by the Moscow Art Theater actor Anatoly Grigorievich Shishkov, as well as teachers Alexander Alexandrovich Bender and Emilia Kirillovna Kravchenko. Rodion Nakhapetov graduated from the acting department of VGIK in 1965.

In 1972, Rodion Nakhapetov graduated from the directing department of VGIK (workshop of Igor Talankin). Since 1978 - actor and director at the Mosfilm film studio.

January 31 famous actress and director Vera Glagoleva would have celebrated her 63rd birthday. Unfortunately, in August 2017, Vera Glagoleva passed away; her life was taken by cancer. But her heroines remain with us - touching, gentle and at the same time unbendingly strong. People like Vera herself...

And there are still three daughters of Vera Vitalievna. They will be discussed in our material. How do they live today, what do they do, what makes them happy and worries?

Two marriages - two betrayals

Vera Glagoleva was married twice. Her first husband, director and actor Rodion Nakhapetov, became the person who discovered Vera’s talent for the audience: while filming the film “To the End of the World...”, he decided to give it to an unknown girl with huge eyes, who accidentally appeared at the Mosfilm film studio, main role.

In marriage with Nakhapetov, two daughters were born - Anna and Maria. Vera Glagoleva not only loved her husband - she idolized him. The news of her husband’s betrayal became all the more painful for her. After 12 years of marriage, they divorced, but Vera did everything possible to ensure that her daughters retained respect and love for their father.

After the divorce, Glagoleva tried very hard to remain strong, although it was not easy. Her beloved daughters supported her. And Vera plunged headlong into her work - despite the fact that full swing Perestroika was underway and domestic cinema was not experiencing better times, the actress was quite in demand.

Then she tried filming herself - her film “Broken Light” entered the Odessa Film Festival “Golden Duke”, and there Vera met the man who became her second husband - businessman Kirill Shubsky.

Vera agreed to marry him after persistent romantic courtship, and in this marriage she had a third daughter, Anastasia. It seemed that this was it - the long-awaited serene family happiness.

But Glagoleva’s second husband also did not stand the test of time - while in America, he cheated on his wife with the famous gymnast Svetlana Khorkina. Their romance soon became public knowledge, and there was especially much talk about it after Khorkina and Shubsky had a son, Svyatoslav.

Anna Nakhapetova - ballerina and actress

The eldest daughter of Vera Glagoleva was born in 1978. Anya has been seriously involved in ballet since childhood, graduated from the Academy of Choreography, and danced in many ballet performances on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater.

In addition, Anya has always been attracted to the world of cinema. She first appeared on screen with her mother in the film “Sunday Dad” at the age of 7 years. Then Rodion Nakhapetov gave his grown-up daughter the main role in his film “Russians in the City of Angels.” Today Anna is a famous actress: she has more than a dozen film roles.

While working at the Bolshoi Theater, the girl met Yegor Simachev - he is also from the ballet. A close relationship developed between them. However, the young people decided to get officially married only after 10 years of marriage. In 2006, their daughter Polina was born. However, the marriage soon broke up, although Anna managed to keep friendly relations with my ex-husband.

Yegor Simachev also had to fight with insidious cancer, like Vera Glagoleva. In those days they former mother-in-law became very close - they were united by one misfortune. Yegor’s young body coped with the disease. He married a second time, is raising a son from his second marriage and often sees his daughter Polina, continuing to dance at the Bolshoi Theater.

Maria Nakhapetova - artist

But Masha, born in 1980, was not interested in a film career. True, she did appear on the screen one day, playing a small role in Nakhapetov’s film “Contagion” (2007).

But Masha always loved to draw and reached serious heights in this matter: she studied at an art studio and at an art school, then graduated from the art department of VGIK. And then she went to Hollywood to attend the famous Gnomon school. Now Maria Nakhapetova is a specialist in design, animation and computer graphics.

There, in the USA, Maria married a former compatriot, a businessman and photographer. However, after some time the marriage broke up, and Maria returned to Russia. Here she met her second husband, a successful businessman. In 2007, the couple had a son, Kirill, and in 2012, a second son, Miron, was born. Maria and her husband are not public people; they lead a private lifestyle.

Anastasia Ovechkina (Shubskaya) - actress and model

Nastya was born in 1993, in Switzerland, where Vera Glagoleva and Kirill Shubsky lived at that time. After graduating from school, Nastya submitted documents to VGIK, deciding to become a producer. Nastya has a very impressive and bright appearance; back in 2009, the girl and her mother starred in the film “A Woman Wants to Know.”

Having left for Hollywood, Nastya this time decided to acquire a specialty as an actress and for this she went to study acting classes. In addition, the girl tried herself as a model and starred in advertising. She also starred in such films as “Ka-De-Bo” and “Ferris Wheel”. So, it seems that Vera Glagoleva’s acting talents were passed on to at least two of her daughters - the eldest and the youngest.

In 2016, Nastya married the famous hockey player Alexander Ovechkin, and in August 2018 the couple had a son, Sergei.

Maria Nakhapetova turned 38 years old. She did not follow in her mother’s footsteps and has nothing to do with cinema. After getting married, Maria moved to the USA, where she graduated from school with a degree in computer graphics. She subsequently divorced, returned to Moscow and married again in 2007. At the moment, she still lives in the capital and is raising two children - 10-year-old Kirill and 6-year-old Miron.

Since the death of her mother, Maria has not made a single publication on Insatagram, but the sisters still decided to congratulate her through the microblog. She was the first to publish her congratulations Anna Nakhapetova. She posted two photographs: an archival photo with her sister, taken in early childhood, and a recent photo of Maria with her children. “Happy Birthday, my girl! Smile and be always happy!!! I love you,” Anna wrote (the authors’ spelling and punctuation are given unchanged hereinafter, - Note edit.).

An hour after congratulating Anna, Anastasia Shubskaya dedicated her post to her sister. The wife of Alexander Ovechkin published a photograph in which all three posed together. “Happy birthday, dear @mashanahapetova! We love you,” Nastya wrote, adding the hashtags “three sisters”, “family”, “birthday”. “Beauties! Happy Birthday to the newborn!”, “What a legacy from VERA... three beautiful daughters, three sisters!”, “What wonderful three sisters you are. Health and peace to you,” followers joined in the congratulations. Some, remembering Nastya’s pregnancy, asked her not to wear high-heeled shoes anymore.

Let us recall that rumors about Anastasia Shubskaya’s pregnancy appeared back in April, when the girl published on her microblog in Instagram photo, on which a rounded belly is noticeable. On June 8, the couple officially confirmed this information: Nastya came to congratulate Alexander Ovechkin on winning the Stanley Cup in a tight cocktail dress, which emphasized her impressive belly.

Even before the official announcement of the Ovechkins about the imminent addition to the family, journalists managed to find out that the couple six months ago chose a clinic in America where their first child would be born. The couple is still hiding the sex of the child. However, if a girl is born, Alexander and Anastasia
