After this incident, Zhuravlev began to come to every performance of Polina with a bouquet of flowers.

Son

The father does not communicate with his daughter, but pays child support. True, first he did a DNA examination.

Dmitry Astrakhan

Anatoly Zhuravlev has known director Dmitry Astrakhan for a long time. Even in his third year, he invited him to play Ivan the Fool in the play “The Little Humpbacked Horse.” It was then that he mastered the skills of playing the button accordion. But the performance never took place. As Anatoly Zhuravlev said, the actor left the theater along with Astrakhan. Dmitry decided to make the film “Everything will be fine.” Naturally, this took some time. At first, no one objected that Dmitry and Anatoly did not appear in the theater, but when they returned, they were bombarded with reproaches. At first, Zhuravlev was not accepted into other theaters. Then he took a ticket to Moscow and on the day of arrival he turned to Oleg Tabakov. He immediately hired him.

Zhuravlev about his profession

The actor admits that he does not understand why many people complain about the constant attention from fans and journalists. It's part of the job. The profession of an actor can be compared to boxing. You need to constantly prove that you are truly worthy of the title of actor.

Another wife twice younger than the actor

Another wife is half the actor’s age

Anatoly ZHURAVLEV was known in the acting community as a real ladies' man. His endless romances with his partners in plays, TV shows and series can be used to make a soap opera. But recently Anatoly settled down - he married the 24-year-old St. Petersburg actress Polina PRIKHODKO. It looks like the 49-year-old artist has finally found love.

From previous novels Anatoly has children who live in Nizhny Tagil, where Zhuravlev himself is from, and in Moscow. Our hero immediately ended relations with their mothers as soon as he learned about his partners’ pregnancy.

Marriage Anatoly Zhuravleva And Polina Prikhodko took place in St. Petersburg. Only the closest friends were invited to the celebration. After the wedding, the newlyweds brought his wife to Moscow. The actor purchased housing in the very center of the capital on Ostozhenka several years ago. He told his friends that he had been saving for these mansions all his life. Anatoly left his old apartment in Lyublino to his first wife - Natalia Dubonos, who had to go through a lot with him. But more on that later.

Last week, the Zhuravlev couple first appeared on one of the capital’s social events. The newlyweds did not hide their feelings: they had fun, kissed, and showed off their wedding rings.

We called the artist to congratulate him on his significant event in his life.

Thank you. “I’m really happy that I’m married,” said Anatoly.

But the next question, where they were going to live - in Moscow or in St. Petersburg, unexpectedly caused a surge of indignation:

Nothing else should interest you! Do you understand me?! Why does it matter to you all where we live?!

Fell in love at the first dance

Polina and Anatoly met two years ago at the Workshop Theater Grigory Kozlov, where the girl served, combining work with studies at the St. Petersburg Theater Academy. Having once arrived in St. Petersburg, Anatoly, at the invitation of friends, looked into the “Workshop”. After the performance there was a skit party, and Polina was the brightest star on stage. The girl sang, danced, played the accordion. Zhuravlev looked at Polya as if spellbound, and then rushed to her, grabbed her in his arms and spun around in a dance.

That same evening, according to the girl’s acquaintances, the loving gentleman invited her to a restaurant, but she was not free and did not accept the invitation. After this incident, Anatoly began to come to every performance of his new friend with an armful of flowers. It was such a fortunate coincidence that at that moment the artist was just invited to film in St. Petersburg.

About his previous passion, his 24-year-old partner on “Dancing with the Stars” Olga Bakushina, Anatoly, seeing Polina, instantly forgot. Their romance was generally short-lived. Our paparazzi caught a couple on the Anapa beach, where they hugged and kissed hotly on the sand in front of all the honest people.

This is our personal life. “We don’t want to tell anyone about this,” Olga avoided answering questions about her affair with Zhuravlev this summer.

The girl was cunning; at that moment she and Anatoly no longer had any relationship. According to Bakushina’s friend, Anatoly disappeared from her life overnight, without explaining anything.

Doesn't communicate with daughter

Before Bakushina, Zhuravlev had an affair with an actress Tatyana Shitova. But he also left the woman without further ado. Tatyana admitted: she could not even imagine that by telling Anatoly the good news about pregnancy, she would put an end to their relationship. That's it now free time the actress dedicates it to her daughter. Vasilisa will turn five in November. The little girl studies English, goes to figure skating and has already made her film debut. The girl sees her dad only on TV. However, Anatoly pays alimony regularly. True, he began to do this after the trials and DNA testing, which he insisted on.

Well, gray beard is like a devil in the ribs,” Tatyana told us after learning that her former boyfriend had gotten married.

Educate yourself!

Zhuravlev's first love is his fellow countrywoman Nadezhda Danilova- told us that they met with Anatoly for only a short time. Having learned that Nadezhda was expecting a child, the gentleman disappeared. All that was left was a note: “You give birth yourself, raise yourself!” Now the son of Anatoly and Nadezhda, Anton, is 27 years old, he has already become a father himself. Zhuravlev recognized his son and is going to introduce him to his new wife, Polina. Son and wife may well find mutual language, because they are practically the same age.

And the artist married a teacher for the first time kindergarten Natalya Dubonos, with whom he lived for more than 20 years. Unfortunately, they had no children. Probably the reason was the abortion that Anatoly forced Natalya to have, saying that in this moment he needs to pursue a career.

Natalya knew about her husband's affairs. Anatoly twisted them without much encryption. And she just laughed it off: “Let him kiss himself!”

Daughter

In 2009, Zhuravlev had a daughter, who was named Vasilisa. Her mother is Natalya Shitova. After the actor found out about Natalya’s pregnancy, he broke off all relations with her. The girl is very similar to her father, but Zhuravlev is not going to recognize her. After giving birth, Natalya sent Anatoly a message on his phone, where she told about the birth of her daughter. The father does not communicate with his daughter, but pays child support. True, first he did a DNA examination.

Dmitry Astrakhan

Anatoly Zhuravlev has known director Dmitry Astrakhan for a long time. Even in his third year, he invited him to play Ivan the Fool in the play “The Little Humpbacked Horse.” It was then that he mastered the skills of playing the button accordion. But the performance never took place. As Anatoly Zhuravlev said, the actor left the theater along with Astrakhan. Dmitry decided to make the film “Everything will be fine.” Naturally, this took some time. At first, no one objected that Dmitry and Anatoly did not appear in the theater, but when they returned, they were bombarded with reproaches. At first, Zhuravlev was not accepted into other theaters. Then he took a ticket to Moscow and on the day of arrival he turned to Oleg Tabakov. He immediately hired him.

Zhuravlev about his profession

The actor admits that he does not understand why many people complain about the constant attention from fans and journalists. It's part of the job. The profession of an actor can be compared to boxing. You need to constantly prove that you are truly worthy of the title of actor.
