Armen Dzhigarkhanyan wife's age difference. Such different women Armen Dzhigarkhanyan

We were the first to visit the actor's home, where he moved in 10 days ago

Armen Dzhigarkhanyan no longer spends the night in the theater. He, who lost his wife, property, savings, finally got a new apartment. The MK observer was the first to cross the threshold of this house.

Love and Banknotes, or the Vulgarity of Life

Now he lives in Kuntsevo, in the same area where he recently lived happily with Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya. But even though he now has the darkest memories of his life connected with this place, he did not want to change the area.

The door is opened by a woman, probably forty-five years old. Blond, humble.

Please pass.

Phil, look who came to us, - says Armen Borisovich, rising to meet me.

Phil is a kitten: big head, funny and affectionate, don't look like a Siamese. He is five months old, he has already grown up, but not yet an adult, therefore he is playful: he immediately jumps into my arms and gently scratches with his ungrown claws of a soft paw. And so I pass with the "child" in my arms into the living room.

The apartment is spacious, 150 meters, probably with a fresh renovation. Three rooms, an entrance hall with a wardrobe, a hall, many utility rooms ... The living room is combined with the kitchen, and corridors run from it to the left and right through two rooms.

In the one where there are a lot of flowers in pots, the bedroom of the artist, in the other one lives a blonde - Lyudmila, a nurse who monitors his health: give pills on time, measure pressure, put sugar, if necessary, put a dropper. She cooks, just now she set the table: tea, sandwiches. Phil immediately jumped into a chair and licked his lips. Lyudmila says that he only recognizes Armen Borisovich.

He moved into this apartment about ten days ago, the furnishings were inherited from the previous owners: upholstered furniture in light leather (or maybe leatherette), a kitchen, a table, a bedroom - just a little, and the house, it seems, has not yet been inhabited. Armen Borisovich himself now has a beard, like the writer Hemingway.

- And it suits you.

Is it true? And I wanted to shave. I won't if you like it.

Armen Borisovich, you have confused everyone: at first, it seemed that you settled not in Kuntsevo, but on Lomonosovsky Prospekt? The first channel was still showing, the presenter Borisov came, and even the cat was already there.

Stayed one day, couldn't, then left. The apartment seems to be good, but it was gloomy there, uncomfortable. And then Arthur (Arthur Soghomonyan, friend of A.B. - M.R.) found this one, and somehow agreed with the owner of that apartment.

- Fresh renovation, look, there is furniture. You like this one, okay?

Okay, but... I'm uncomfortable. Inside (points to chest) uncomfortable. Although I am infinitely grateful to my friends who did not leave me, found this apartment, but ... it is inconvenient for me. Because who is she? Came into my life - now I say what I think - an elementary thief. Simply frankly, without hesitation. They have it there, in Ukraine, on the Maidan, this is probably called love. So you ask if I'm comfortable here. Of course, it’s convenient: it’s quiet, the park is close, but how further…

He understands everything that happened to him during these last three months of the fall of 2017. All! He understands that he became the hero of a tragedy called ... there are many options: “Love and banknotes”, “Gray hair in a beard - a demon in a rib”, but the most correct here would rather be “Vulgarity of life”. What it is? It’s not at all like “the love boat crashed into everyday life.” Vulgarity in hellish passion - for real estate, money, material things.

Yes, as a great artist, he is used to comprehending the character and actions of his heroes, vividly embodying them on stage and screen in such a way that you will not forget. But now he can’t comprehend the horror of what happened to him personally. When, how and why he, who lived to deep gray hair, up to 82 years old, and suddenly - with nothing. I remember him in the hospital on 11th Parkovaya, where in mid-October Armen Dzhigarkhanyan did not look like Armen Dzhigarkhanyan: not very coherent speech, completely unsteady gait. I also thought: maybe this is the result of the medicines that his wife “fed” him by the hour? Or maybe shock? “Old fool” - he says this to himself, trying to joke, and in his eyes, which are enlarged by glasses, there is confusion and sadness, and maybe longing. Hopeless.

(Long pause.)

Therefore, I will honestly tell you: for the 1937th year, such people did when they denounced you, denounced me, then sent me, you to prison. As Shakespeare says, “There is a lot of passion in her. It just doesn't make sense." It makes no sense ... Here I communicate with Phil - I feel good with him.

- Where did the cat come from?

Here appeared. At first he lived in my theater, in my office, and then I took him here with me. The hostess did not want to give it away, because although he is Siamese, he is terribly affectionate. And then her cat lambed again, brought four at once, and she agreed to give me this one. I do not close the door, because he comes at night, lies down - like that. (Points to his chest, closing his eyes.) I'm talking to him ... If I weren't 80 years old now ...

Armen Borisovich, in front of everyone, did not hesitate to scold her: such and such, he did not restrain himself in expressions

For almost three months, the country has been shown the exciting thriller "Dzhigarkhaniya". The country participates enthusiastically and noisily. And this collective interest accurately broadcasts to us what is happening today with people, how they go crazy - not from their own, from someone else's life.

The collective portrait of the nation is obtained without dignity and with poor education. Some feel sorry for the old artist, who is still "to blame for everything." The other - nervously considers his income (it's necessary, how much did he earn?!). But still others condemn that he wants to leave the “poor girl” alone in need (“she gave him her best years”).

That's interesting, someone forced her to give them away? Someone raped: live with the old man, live, sleep with him, sit at the table? She did it consciously and voluntarily, disposing of her young body and shy smile. And now the question is: does she have the worst left? On the contrary, millions have been added to the beauty that blossomed according to age, no matter what strangers. It is known that millions, like diamonds, are the best friends of girls. And now the whole country knows about her, an unknown girl from Kyiv. It does not matter that with the reputation of "robbed the old fool", it is important what they say.


When did this terrible story begin? On October 9, when Armen Borisovich discovered the loss of his Russian passport, he recalled the last scandal with his wife, and it clicked in his head: did she steal it? Or when Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya discovered her husband was missing and wrote a statement to the police?

In the clinic, where the artist has been observed for many years, the medical staff noticed, they told me that back in the summer, when the couple came to the hospital, Dzhigarkhanyan, in front of everyone, did not hesitate to scold her: such and such, he did not restrain himself in expressions. Even then it was felt that their relationship was not the same as it was before.

Suspicious matches

Of course, professionals are now dealing with this personal story with the most powerful resonance, for whom reconciliation of documents, comparison of facts, dates, interview of witnesses will restore the picture of the events of October in the life of the now former spouses.

Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya now goes to the investigative committee, has a written undertaking not to leave Moscow. There are many oddities and coincidences: the date of the statement about the disappearance of her husband and the disappearance of his passport somehow suspiciously coincide. As with dates, one after another follows - the day of registration of marriage in the registry office and debiting money from the spouse's account in one of the capital's banks.

Artur Soghomonyan, friend of the artist:

When I heard “Dzhigarkhanyan disappeared”, I immediately called Vitalina: “What are you doing? How did you disappear? Do you know Iroh has it?" (Hayrapet Hovhannisyan. - M.R.)

- And what about Vitalina?

She said she was advised to say so. But she herself knew perfectly well where he was, with whom and why. He freaked out that without him she began to manage the theater as she wants - she gets into creativity, played the premiere, but he did not give permission. He said: "My name is on the theater, not yours."

Yes, this is perhaps the biggest mistake of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan: in addition to the power of attorney to dispose of all his movable and immovable property, he also gave Vitalina the theater, making her director. Such a step has at least an explanation: Dzhigarkhanyan, as an artistic director, so often did not work out with the directors that he probably thought: well, this one is her own, she won’t deceive. But, as it turned out, not every Vitalina (albeit a certified one) can manage the state, even if it is a theatrical one.

A man loses his sense of control and danger when he meets a woman who woo him

Are all marriages with a serious age difference doomed to a similar ending? No, of course, the theatrical world alone can present several bright couples to skeptics: Yuri Lyubimov - Katalina Lyubimova (30 years old), Oleg Tabakov - Marina Zudina (30), Vladimir Etush - Elena Etush (42). Powerful unions, creators and their muses. Old husbands and their young wives. What is an age-unequal marriage, I asked a specialist.

Vladimir Fainzilberg, psychiatrist, associate professor of the Department of Psychotherapy, Moscow Institute of Psychoanalysis:

The permissible age difference in marriages, which, in my opinion, is quite real, is up to 20–25 years. Anything more causes suspicion, a fairly reasonable suspicion: such an alliance is most often based on mercantile interests. And those who enter into such a marriage cannot themselves explain why they do it, if they are trying to hide some kind of mercantilism.

- Do women and men have different motives?

The mechanisms that drive women are most often understandable: they look for a father in a man who can solve their problems, protect, provide, that is, when life's problems are solved on their own, as in childhood. And men are driven by a sense of interest in a young woman, which in a good sense of the word should not fade with age. The level of testosterone that determines attraction must be high enough for a man aged 50+ to have some kind of permanent interest in the opposite sex, at least formally, visually. And a man loses his sense of control and danger when he meets a woman who seeks him as a lover, as a husband.

- That is, you do not believe at all in the purity of feelings in young women who connect their lives with an elderly man?

I don't quite believe this, because today, as life expectancy has risen, there is a stratum of men aged 60+ who are physically active and intellectually wealthy. Most often, well-known men with material capabilities fall into this clip. Nevertheless, a woman who marries such a man must understand that the time will come when she will have to play the role of a nurse, a nurse, to take care of this weak old man. And there are few women who do this out of a feeling of love and sincere passion.

- Have you met many such women in your practice?

This is calculated, probably, in fractions of a percent. That is, there can be one, in extreme cases, two percent per thousand people. Marriages with large age gaps are extremely rare.

Can young wives be classified as those who quite cruelly and cold-bloodedly use and even kill people much older than themselves? I'm talking about black realtors, young girls pretending to be social workers.

I understand your question. After the destruction of the Soviet Union - I am not a fan of it, but I understand that a certain unifying national idea disappeared with it - in 20-30 years people appeared who were brought up in a different spirit, not in the one in which we grew up. Today, the entire policy of society is aimed at enrichment, when wealth is at the forefront, when work is not prestigious and not necessary. What kind of feelings and emotions can we talk about when they kill not only strangers, but also their own in order to get an apartment, an inheritance? Or they just get rid of them so as not to care for them, etc. Indifference and a thirst for enrichment come to the fore. I see this in young doctors - their first question is: how can you make money? If earlier doctors treated, today they provide a service.

Video with panties is not for nothing

Armen Dzhigarkhanyan, the people's favorite, faced with the vulgarity of life, did not imagine that he would still face two realities in which he did not understand anything and was not oriented. This is the virtual reality of social networks, which is like a dark forest for him.

And television, on which, by the way, he worked a lot and whose fame increased. But now his ex-wife works very diligently there: she uses all the possibilities of social networks and TV. Oddly enough, but the blonde turned out to be not a blonde: stuffing in the media and networks is competently done - from detective ones (the people's artist of the USSR disappeared, was found in the hospital, the criminal case initiated against his ex-wife is classified) to physiologically unpleasant (the people's artist is not washes because he spends the night in the theater).


And TV people simply announce a marathon and race to the finish line. They completely lost their heads: they show home shooting, where the artist is in shorts and drunk. The wife handed it over (why she filmed it is also a question), but the TV people's hand did not flinch to expose the People's Artist of the USSR to general disgrace. They did not even understand that it was a shame not for him, drunk, but for them. Do they also live without dignity?

Armen Dzhigarkhanyan, of course, is judged, discussed, defended, just like at a comrades' court of the times of the USSR, when there was no TV yet. And he is only to blame for the fact that, being a very adult and, in general, a single man (his wife has lived in the USA for many years), he innocently fell into the net of a pretty blonde. Is he first? Of course not - the people's artist only joined the army of naive pensioners who succumbed to the call of male nature. He has a specific orientation, his behavior is quite logical, and according to this logic, the brain of the male turns off. This is a medical fact, proven by various kinds of young experimenters, where the purity of the result depends on the frequency of the experiment.

I fully admit that the young smart (without irony) blonde Vitalina with funny curls could not stand living with the old man. “Well, I didn’t,” as in that joke. And it can be understood: everything is different for them - biological cycles, rhythm, perception. Maybe she should also be protected from her husband’s age-related whims, his senile quirks, habits? .. Then the young lady should say honestly: you know, dear, I don’t have the strength to live with you, let me return to my mother, to Kiev; but I am your wife, and according to the law, let's share everything. And the law will be on her side.

But for some reason the young lady does not want to share anything. The young lady takes all the money from the accounts of the now disgusted star husband. Moreover, she begins to earn on this situation. How? She knows perfectly well how much it costs her to pass under the camera at Sheremetyevo Airport, from which she flies in an unknown direction (Tbilisi, Kiev or Tel Aviv?), And the same camera meets her for money when the fugitive returns to the Mother See . Coming to the studio is also worth something. What about the panty video? This, as you understand, is not a gift at all. This is where capital gains come in. Therefore, I do not want to defend: she already has all the moves calculated.

I had a wife, now I don't, and thank God

And here we are sitting with him in his new apartment, uninhabited yet. We drink tea and talk. But no matter what they talk about (about the theater, the last premiere of "Krechinsky's Wedding"), he always returns to his trouble.

- But you yourself, excuse me, gave Vitalina all the powers.

Are you going to blame me? She was my woman, she was lying next to me, but I can’t check every minute if anything has disappeared. How then to live if you do not believe?

He freaks out, explodes, gets nervous, then walks away.

To be honest, for the first time I don't know what to do. I don’t even feel sorry for the money - what is money? They left, they came ... But so shamelessly! Deception, betrayal! You say: you need money, - I'll get it ... But not like that. (Silence, staring into space.) I'll get better, I'll get better. I had a wife, now I don't, and thank God. I have only desire, vile, vile, - to punish her severely.

- Maybe not, Armen Borisovich?

Necessarily!!! She did everything without asking me. You're talking wrong. There is a definition: crime and punishment. You know, many years ago in Yerevan we had an accountant in the Armenian church, he stole all the money. They caught him, they went to the Catholicos, they said: “He must be judged.” - "No need. I told him: Damn you." No, no, I do not agree, in this particular case, I will even ask that she be imprisoned. She must be afraid.

- I've never seen you like this before. You probably don't know yourself like that, do you?

I didn’t know… Therefore, I can’t accept all these philosophical arguments about forgiveness. I won't calm down. To be honest, if it wasn't for my friends - Arthur, Iroh and my cat... They saved me.

But you do not allow the thought to sit down at the table and try to agree on the division of property? Maybe then all the passions will subside?

They are sure that they will not give anything, and they will not get anything for it.

Is it possible to extinguish the fire peacefully? Have the parties made attempts at reconciliation?

Yevgeny Parfenov, lawyer representing the interests of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan:

When it all started, around October 20, I wrote a letter to Vitalina - we know each other well, offered to meet to sort everything out. The letter remained unanswered. Then, in court, during the divorce, her representative Mazur sat down with me, I regarded this as a sign of reconciliation, but she only asked: where are we going to discharge Armen Borisovich from the apartment on Molodogvardeyskaya Street? And just a few days later, on “Live” at Malakhov’s, she said: “I asked not to discharge Armen Borisovich, since he has nowhere to live.” Judging by the way Vitalina and her entourage behave, they are sure that they will not give anything away, and they will not get anything for it.

- How so? I know that a criminal case has been opened, and, it seems, more than one.

Yes, a case has been initiated under article 137 of the Criminal Code “Violation of privacy”. Vitalina has already been charged, and at the moment a circle of persons involved in this case is being established.

- What punishment is provided under this article?

Article of minor gravity: from a fine to 2 years in prison. If the investigation works competently and professionally, then the court can give a real term. Of course, we will insist that there be a real deadline. I hope for a verdict and a criminal record. Now I am doing everything so that another case is initiated - under Article 159 "Fraud", and there is every reason for this, I hope the investigation will agree with us. It can be initiated on two episodes related to the fraudulent acquisition of rights to real estate and breach of trust. And also by disposing of his funds without the consent of Dzhigarkhanyan. Also, in fact, a case was initiated under Article 325 on the theft of documents. And a statement on 306 was accepted - a deliberately false denunciation.

- And what is this story with the classified case, which was announced by the lawyer Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya?

I don't have such information. I think that there is no state secret here and cannot be, we are talking about Article 161 - on non-disclosure of data from the preliminary investigation. A non-disclosure signature was taken from Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya while the investigation is ongoing, as she and her proxies go on TV programs and tell everything right and left.

It's not just about Dzhigarkhanyan and Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya, not just about a man and a woman who don't want to not only live together, but also can't see each other. It's about simple things that are now turned upside down: what is good and what is bad. Is it good to take money from an old man? Or deprive him of a roof over his head? Do you need to help the old man cross the road? Even if this old man is known by the city, the country and the world? Do you have doubts? If you don't know how to answer these questions, something is probably wrong with you.

They went down the aisle after 15 years of dating. Armen Dzhigarkhanyan was 80 and Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya- 36. Of course, evil tongues predicted a short life for this union, but in the first months after the registry office it seemed that the newlyweds were happy. Everything changed a year later: the People's Artist of the USSR accused the newly-made wife of having robbed him to the skin, and he intends to sue, and Vitalina before that went to the police with a statement about the kidnapping of her husband, who was allegedly in an inadequate state. A romantic love story that began many years ago ended in a banal scandal and, apparently, is heading for divorce.

First meeting

The future spouses first met in 1994, when Dzhigarkhanyan was on tour in Kyiv. 15-year-old Vitalina approached the eminent actor for an autograph, adding to the impressive army of the artist's fans: she read all the interviews of Armen Borisovich, watched films with his participation, attended performances. A closer acquaintance with the idol took place 6 years later. The girl gave Dzhigarkhanyan a note through her friend, who worked in the theater. The actor called her and invited her to go to the dressing room for a cup of tea before the performance. The conversation between them developed from the first seconds. Music brought them together: Vitalina studied piano at the conservatory, Armen Borisovich was well versed in classical music. But after a sincere conversation, they parted again and met only when the girl finally moved to Moscow.















Up the career ladder

In 2008, Dzhigarkhanyan invited Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya to become the head of the musical part in her theater, she selected the musical arrangement for performances. Literally a year later, Armen Borisovich had a stroke. The actor, although he was then married, lived alone, since his wife Tatiana Vlasova by that time, she had firmly settled in America and practically did not come to the capital. Dzhigarkhanyan often ate at the theater buffet and, like many other creative people, did not take care of his health. One day, he forgot to drink the drug that the doctor prescribed for him, and ended up in a hospital bed. Then Vitalina took care of the artist into her own hands. After some time, Armen Borisovich returned to work in the theater and even went on stage in the premiere performance of "The Theater of the Times of Nero and Seneca."

Attentive and … young

Vitalina has repeatedly said in an interview that the romance between her and Dzhigarkhanyan did not start right away. There were too many obstacles on the way to family happiness: an impressive age difference, different social status. In addition, it was difficult for the eminent actor to believe in the sincerity of the girl's intentions. But attention from Vitalina took over, and soon they became a real couple. The lovers were always together: at home, at work and social events.

More than 40 years of age difference between Dzhigarkhanyan and his new passion, of course, gave rise to many rumors about the mercenary plans of the latter. But one nuance made one doubt the accusations of spiteful critics: Armen Borisovich was officially married to another woman, which means that in which case all his property would have gone to his legal wife. However, in 2016, the actor decided to put an end to his relationship with Tatyana Vlasova, which lasted almost fifty years, and go down the aisle with Vitalina.

There might not have been a wedding

Dzhigarkhanyan made a marriage proposal at the premiere of A Christmas Story at the Mariinsky Theater in January 2016, and the wedding took place in February. As Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya said in one of her interviews, she offered to set the registration date for March, since it was in this month that the couple met. However, Armen Borisovich told her that he could not wait so long.

On the eve of the wedding, the actor was in the hospital. Vitalina was not completely sure that the wedding would take place. But on X day, the enamored groom ran away from the doctors and nevertheless arrived at the registry office. The ceremony was modest, without lavish feasts and festivities. Having become husband and wife, the newlyweds went to the theater.

After stamp

It seemed that in the family life of Armen Borisovich there was a real idyll. However, in October 2017, news appeared in the press that Dzhigarkhanyan was hiding from his young wife in the hospital, accusing her of stealing and flatly refusing to let Vitalina into his room.

Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya herself interprets this unpleasant story differently. The woman claims that her husband is very ill and was generally abducted, and she did not know about his whereabouts for several days, so she turned to the police.

Dzhigarkhanyan's friend Arthur Sogomyan, who helped the artist go to the hospital, claims that serious disputes arose between the spouses, not only on financial grounds, because the girl allegedly transferred all her husband's property to herself, but also on creative grounds. In 2015, Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya took the position of general director of the Moscow Drama Theater under the direction of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and began to stage performances that her husband did not like on its stage. And when a scandal broke out, she completely issued an order according to which Armen Borisovich was forbidden to cross the threshold of his own theater.

After the “escape” of Dzhigarkhanyan, the spouses do not communicate and, apparently, it is pointless to talk about reconciliation of the parties, since Armen Borisovich declared his desire to divorce Vitalina and deprive her of her position. Alas, even the third marriage did not become truly happy for the actor.

If at the end of last year everyone was discussing the divorce of the famous TV presenter Olga Buzova and the budding Lokomotiv football player Dmitry Tarasov, then people's artist Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and his young ex-wife Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya do not leave the television screens.

Almost everyone seems to know their love story. The first time Vitalina saw Dzhigarkhanyan when she was only 16 years old, and he was almost 60, and fell in love with him. Then the young Ukrainian pianist, having moved to Moscow, began to look for reasons to meet with the people's artist. She went to his concerts, not forgetting to run into his dressing room for a cup of tea before that ... Their friendship became stronger in 2002, when Dzhigarkhanyan had a microstroke, and it was Vitalina who unselfishly took care of him nearby. Their relationship was formalized only in 2016. For 36-year-old Vitalina, this was the first marriage, and for 80-year-old Dzhigarkhanyan, it was the third, and the 44-year age difference did not bother them at all. They were considered one of the exemplary star couples until today.

Now Dzhigarkhanyan, left without money and without housing after the divorce, accuses his ex-wife of wanting to poison him and is trying to sue her apartments from her. And the enviable bride Vitalina lives in a big way - she goes to elite beauty salons and bathes in the rays of popularity that has suddenly flooded over her.

NEWS-R remembered the most famous star couples who, despite the big age difference, are still together and happy.

1. Ivan Krasko and Natalya Shevel (age difference 60 years)


Ivan Krasko met Natalya Shevel at the St. Petersburg Institute for the Humanities, where he lectured to students. Natalya Shevel was his student and literally immediately charmed the people's artist. They got married in 2015. He was 85 years old, she was 25. For Krasko, this was the fourth marriage, and for his student - the second.

Despite such an impressive age difference, the people's artist and his young wife are seriously thinking about the continuation of their offspring and have even come up with a name for their future children. If this still happens, then the people's artist will become a father for the sixth time.

The young wife of the people's artist is periodically accused of leaving by calculation. Although, judging by the latest news, the Krasko spouses barely make ends meet and even refused to celebrate their wedding anniversary due to lack of money. In addition, the actor said that he was not going to promote Natalia in show business. Most likely, Ivan Krasko keeps his word, because Natalya has become famous so far only as “the young wife of a people's artist” and nothing more.

2. Composer Vladimir Shainsky and Svetlana Shainsky (age difference 41 years)


goodhouse.ru

In second place is the famous children's composer Viktor Shainsky, who recently celebrated his 92nd birthday. With their second wife Svetlana, they have a difference of 41 years.

They met at the Union of Composers, where the girl worked as an accountant. The famous musician - the author of songs about Cheburashka, Shapoklyak, Little Raccoon, was 58 years old, and she was not even 18. The tall, beautiful blonde did not immediately pay attention to the composer, who, by the way, was a head shorter than her. But Viktor Shainsky did not back down and eventually managed to conquer the girl with his optimism, jokes and rejection of a quiet life. But the meeting with a gypsy turned out to be decisive, who predicted to Sveta a happy marriage with a man much older than her and with a name starting with the letter "B". After that, the girl no longer doubted her choice.

The fortuneteller's predictions came true. They have been happily married for over 30 years and have two children (a son is 30 and a daughter is 26).

Viktor Shainsky himself does not feel older than his wife:

The only thing that betrays me is wrinkles, baldness, - the famous composer says, laughing.

3. Andrei Konchalovsky and Yulia Vysotskaya (age difference 36 years)


A bright representative of the Mikhalkov clan, the famous film director Andrei Konchalovsky met the young ambitious actress Yulia Vysotskaya at the Kinotavr festival in 1996. Seeing the 23-year-old girl in the hotel elevator, the 59-year-old director was so fascinated by her that he immediately invited her to dinner. And two days later they flew together to rest in Istanbul.

Despite the fact that Konchalovsky was still married to his fourth wife, their romance developed very quickly, as did the career of an aspiring actress. Yulia Vysotskaya, starred in many films directed by her husband.

Once she complained that other directors do not even offer her to act in their films, because they know that she is "the actress of Andrei Konchalovsky" and that's it.

In addition, Yulia Vysotskaya became famous as an exemplary wife and hostess, who teaches all the women of the country to cook deliciously at home - she is the host of cooking shows, as well as the author of numerous books about borscht and pies.

Despite the 36-year age difference, the couple have been happily married for almost 20 years, raising two children and traveling a lot. By the way, fans note that over time, Andrei Konchalovsky and Yulia Vysotskaya became outwardly very similar to each other, and sometimes look like father and daughter.

4. Bari Alibasov and Lena Lenina (age difference 32 years)



bimru.ru

In fourth place is 70-year-old Russian producer Bari Alibasov and his new lover, 38-year-old writer and businesswoman Lena Lenina, to whom he has already made a marriage proposal. She will become the showman's seventh wife.

The intentions to connect his life with a famous writer are so serious that the producer of the Na-Na group has already rewritten his eight-room apartment in Moscow for a new lover.

By the way, the previous wife of the musician was 40 years younger than him. The producer played a wedding with a charming blonde, an actress and her PR director Victoria Maximova in the summer of 2013. A year later, the couple had a son, who turned out to be completely different from Bari Alibasov. He immediately suspected the young wife of treason and left her. Victoria did not deny and confessed to her husband that the son was indeed not his child.

5. Alexander Gradsky and Marina Kotashenko (age difference 32 years)



usoft.spb.ru

To the question: “Is there love at first sight?” Alexander Gradsky will answer yes with confidence. He met his chosen one on the street in 2004.

9. Maxim Galkin and Alla Pugacheva (age difference 27 years)


The most famous and most exemplary couple of Russian show business. Everyone knows about their relationship, well, or almost everything ...

Their romance began in the early 2000s, at the same time as the young comedian's rapid career. The novice TV presenter was 25 years old, and Alla Pugacheva was 52 years old. Behind her were four marriages and an adult daughter - singer Kristina Orbakaite, by the way, 5 years older than Maxim Galkin.

When their stormy romance began, the Primadonna was still officially married to Philip Kirkorov (the pop king, by the way, was 18 years younger than her). Ironically, it was he who introduced Pugacheva and Galkin.

New feelings so overwhelmed Alla Pugacheva that, after almost ten years of marriage, she divorced Kirkorov and moved to live with Maxim Galkin. It is worth saying that no one believed in the sincerity of their feelings, even the singer's own daughter. Despite all the rumors and gossip that the yellow press was full of, the star couple in 2011 played a modest wedding by the standards of Russian show business in a small Moscow restaurant, which cost them about 250 thousand rubles.

In 2013, with the help of a surrogate mother, the couple had twins - Harry and Lisa, and the son is a copy of little Galkin, and the daughter, like two drops of water, looks like her star mother.

Despite the 27-year age difference, Galkin and Pugacheva live in perfect harmony. Recently, they even got married, which again caused anger and condemnation among fans, because Pugacheva had already married Kirkorov. But, according to the singer herself, previous marriages were a mistake, and "Masik" (as she calls Maxim Galkin) is her true love.

The famous rock musician Vladimir Kuzmin found his happiness only in his third marriage. The third wife of the singer was his fan, 27 years younger than him. They met in Anapa in 1999.

The beauty and grace of the tall blonde impressed the 45-year-old rock star so much that he looked after her for a long time. This was love at first sight. Then there were constant phone calls, meetings from the university (the future wife of the artist studied in Moscow as an economist), dates under the moonlight and declarations of love. And one day the girl left her house and saw a giant inscription on the fence: “Katya, marry me!”

Nobody believed in their love, even the parents of the chosen one of the musician. Nevertheless, Vladimir Kuzmin and Ekaterina Trofimova have been married for over 15 years and are happy with each other.
