“Love is something that is not understood by the brain. As soon as she becomes reasonable, calculating, that’s something else. Love is madness, madness and whatever you want it to be. Over time, it develops into a habit, life goes on, and that’s it. And at first it’s an unearthly state, when you don’t walk, but fly, when you can go crazy from the touch of a hand - a completely uncontrollable process.”

From an interview with Alexander Abdulov.

For Irina Alferova, since her youth, the phrase: “Die, but don’t give a kiss without love” was a rule of behavior. She did not torment her fans, did not play with them like a cat with mice, and did not single out anyone. Some mothers of young sufferers were openly perplexed: they say, who does she want? Is it really a prince on a white horse?! “I kept quiet and knew to myself that I needed just one. And I waited for fate to give me this meeting,” the actress later recalled.

She waited - and waited. Young Alexander Abdulov, then just Sasha, turned out to be the spitting image of a prince from a fairy tale. Tall, broad-shouldered, with sad eyes and a smile beautiful face. They seemed made for each other.

Prince named Alexander Abdulov

But they might not have met. At that time, Irina Alferova was in poverty: life with her first husband, Bulgarian businessman Boyko Gyurov, was not going well. No apartment, no registration, no money... And in her arms - a one and a half year old child. Alferova was not hired - who needs an inexperienced actress who has not worked a day on stage? They say that Irina’s friends helped her: someone rented a room in a communal apartment, someone donated money from time to time. She already wanted to return to her parents in Novosibirsk. How long will she have to suffer herself and torment little Ksyusha?! Leave, just leave!

She didn't leave. Fate finally rewarded her for her patience: one day, accidentally getting to a rehearsal in Lenkom, Irina Alferova dared to talk with the main director, Mark Zakharov, and she was accepted into the troupe. There she met her prince. His name was Sasha Abdulov.

...The theater was on tour in Yerevan. IN free time lovers walked through the park: the foliage rustling under their feet, the piercing blue of the sky - the perfect backdrop for a romantic date. Alexander asked: “Will you take me as your husband?” “If you carry it in your arms across the entire park, I will answer!” He grabbed her and did not let go of his precious burden even when the park was far behind. Returning to Moscow, they got married.

“Irina Alferova and I had a brilliant wedding: there were two of us. We were at the registry office, then at the church, then we came to the hostel and celebrated the wedding there,” Abdulov later recalled. The newlyweds settled in a hostel, and later, thanks to the efforts of Evgeny Leonov, they received an apartment. Alexander found a common language with two-year-old Ksyusha, who began calling him dad. (He worried about her until his last days, rejoiced at her wedding and, like a real father, was jealous of Ksenia for other men).

Irina Alferova and Alexander Abdulov. What fairy tales are not written about

Fairy tales often end with the words: “After the wedding, they lived happily ever after.” In the life of the most beautiful couple in the country, everything was, alas, not so. Alexander turned out to be the leading actor of the Theater. Lenin Komsomol, a favorite of director Mark Zakharov - the actor was, as they say, in great demand. Rehearsals, premiere shows, tours. Filming, filming, filming. Some even thought that he had “unhealthy popularity.”

While her husband was shining, Irina vegetated in the crowd. Alexander was not going to bother for his wife: “My Irka is very beautiful and talented. They’ll take her without me!” But they didn’t take it. Moreover, everyone around - both spectators and journalists - as if by agreement, admired her unearthly beauty, but for some reason no one exclaimed: “Lord, how talented she is! How amazingly, how soulfully he plays!” Alferova did not dare to leave the theater, she was still waiting for the real one, big role, but she never came. And when, on the advice of Evgeny Leonov, Irina asked the director to include her as the second cast in “An Optimistic Tragedy,” she received a decisive refusal.

And then there are these constant calls from my husband’s fans... Both angry and supposedly sympathetic: your husband is completely cheating on you, ah-ah! How. Irochka, you didn’t know this? Oh, poor you, poor... naive. Beauty has never stopped a single man from cheating!

Subsequently, Abdulov honestly admitted his love for women: “Yes, I’m a womanizer, a womanizer. Thank God it’s not blue.” To the actor’s credit, he never flaunted details, believing that “it’s not masculine to establish yourself in women’s circulation.”

Don't part with your loved ones

Yes, the then Sasha Abdulov was not created for quiet family life. As people say, his skin was simply “on fire” - he loved to gather around him noisy companies, spend time in restaurants, go fishing. He had no intention of leaving Irina. Where to go? For what? From a beloved woman, an object of tenderness and endless admiration?! How could this fit in with his endless hobbies? Yes, it could - man's love completely different.

Irina didn’t demand anything from him, she avoided a showdown in every possible way - she couldn’t and didn’t want to. And when she starred in the video of singer Alexander Serov, rumors spread about their alleged romance. Viewers, as often happens, confused the screen fairy tale with life. There was no romance, and there could not have been: despite the abundance of fans, Alferova did not waste her time on affairs, she still loved her husband.

Yes, she loved him, but she could no longer live with him. In 1993, the couple separated. Later, in an interview, she admits: “You see, Sasha has done a lot in his life, but that’s how he is! And I understand him. I just need something completely different in my life. And everyone needs him! To all women!

Star couple Irina Alferova and Alexander Abdulov. Life after love

On the set of the film “Sheriff’s Star,” the actress met Sergei Martynov. He turned out to be unambitious and, despite his external beauty (it was not for nothing that in the seventies and eighties of the last century he played both fairy-tale princes and White Guard officers), absolutely indifferent to the flattery of fans. Sergei became not only a husband for Irina, but also a guardian angel.

But even old love does not rust: ten years after their divorce, Abdulov told reporters: “I had one wife - Irina Alferova.” He invited her to his entreprise performance; they starred in the same film (“Trap”). It’s rare that someone manages to maintain warm, family relationships after a breakup. They saved it. Irina Alferova experienced the serious, terrible illness of Alexander Abdulov and his death, as only a close, dear person can experience. Probably, if they had not divorced then, they would have lived together until his last days. What a pity that history doesn't know subjunctive mood. What a pity…

A long period of getting used to each other is behind us. However, the madness of love is also left behind. But there is respect, a certain amount of reverence, common holidays, dreams, goals. And yet they diverge. Why? This question has been raised more than once regarding the most beautiful couple Soviet Union. Alexander Abdulov and Irina Alferova.

She is the first woman with whom he legitimized his relationship before God and people. He is her passion, her pain. Let their marriage not last 20 years (the stars were married for 15 years). But fans and friends still wonder: why did Abdulov and Alferova divorce?

Irina…

Alferova was born and raised in a family of lawyers. The girl inherited her beauty and luxurious hair from her mother, who in her youth dreamed of being an artist. But it didn’t work out.

Irina and her mother were very close. The mother supported her daughter in everything. She even accompanied Irina to Moscow to enter GITIS.

The girl’s creative path began at the Novosibirsk amateur theater. After graduating from school, Irina could not imagine her future life without a stage. A small theater studio was not enough: more serious training was needed. Alferova understood this. She set off to conquer Moscow.

Irina entered GITIS on the first try. In her first year, the girl married the son of a Bulgarian diplomat. She gave birth to a daughter, Ksenia. She lived a calm and measured family life in Bulgaria. She acted in films and played on the theater stage. What went wrong is unknown.

Evil tongues claim that Alferova vegetated in poverty. Most likely, the relationship has simply run its course. And the young artist managed to fall in love with Moscow. The couple separated, Irina left, and daughter Ksenia remained in Novosibirsk for a while.

At first, Alferova huddled in corners, took on roles in the crowd, did not live, but vegetated. Joy knew no bounds when Mark Zakharov invited her to the Lenkom troupe...

Alexander…

Abdulov was born in Tobolsk into a huge creative family. Father is the director of the Fergana Drama Theater (Abdulov Jr. spent his childhood in Fergana). Parents really wanted Sasha to play. He got his first role at the age of five.

But the boy was not passionate about the theater. He lived his own boyish life. He went in for sports, was fond of music... My father insisted on enrolling in the Shchepkinskoye Theater. But Sasha didn’t do it. Abdulov went to the Faculty of Physical Education at the Pedagogical University. I studied for a year. And in the spring I entered GITIS.

Already from his second year, Alexander performed on stage. After his graduation performance, the young actor was noticed by Mark Zakharov. And he didn’t just notice, but invited him to main role in the drama “Not on the Lists.” Now Abdulov worked at Lenkom...

They met...

Both are beautiful and talented. On the one hand, they simply could not be together. On the other hand, such a beautiful couple is initially doomed to divorce (there are too many envious people and “well-wishers” around).

Irina starred in the film “Walking Through Torment.” The role in the film promised fame to the young artist. Alexander played on the Lenkom stage. They met. A rake and a womanizer, Abdulov could not help but notice the beautiful Irina. If an actor likes someone, he will do everything to win the favor of the object of passion. All his women are talking about this today.

Abdulov knew how to look after. He knew how to turn everyday life into a holiday. The rapprochement of young beautiful artists was rapid.

Lenkom went on tour to Yerevan. Alexander and Irina walked in the dark evenings and dined together. Abdulov proposed to Alferova. The girl decided to joke: “If you carry me in your arms across the park, I’ll give you the answer.” Abdulov finally suffered. Alferova said: “Yes.”

In 1976, the actors got married. The wedding was very noisy and crowded: Irina and Sasha went to the registry office together, got married together in the church, and then celebrated this celebration in the hostel.

Abdulov quickly found a common language with Alferova’s daughter Ksenia. They made the children's show “Alarm Clock” together. Can you imagine how many fans this program had? Not only children, but also adults watched it. Still would! Then there was something to talk about for a whole week! How did Alexander look at Irina? How did she answer him? What did you say? This was the first celebrity couple to show their relationship to the whole country.

Outwardly everything was very good. Then why did the actors get divorced? Although others were more surprised why they had been together for so long?

It is difficult to call a couple a single whole. Irina craved more attention from her husband and his support. Alexander couldn't give it to her. Abdulov is a holiday man who contains many characters. It was very difficult for him to sit still. It is even more difficult to change... Over time, the difference in characters began to be felt more strongly.

Alexander’s love adventures and calls from his fans from frank confessions, revelations in the yellow press. Abdulov acted endlessly, went on tour, and shone on the theater stage. And Irina could only wait. And wait forever.

Naturally, this state of affairs could not pass without leaving a trace. The last point for the couple was the role of Alferova in the video of Alexander Serov. It is unlikely that Abdulov believed the evil gossip: Irina was always faithful to the artist. But the timing of the events coincided. Clip - serious conversation - divorce.

Irina and Alexander did not throw mud at each other, did not share anything and did not make trouble. They managed to maintain a warm relationship after the divorce. Each one began a different, new life.

“Love is something that is not understood by the brain. As soon as she becomes reasonable, calculating, that’s something else. Love is madness, madness and whatever you want it to be. Over time, it develops into a habit, life goes on, and that’s it. And at first it’s an unearthly state, when you don’t walk, but fly, when you can go crazy from the touch of a hand - a completely uncontrollable process.”

Probably, if they had not divorced then, they would have lived together until his last days. What a pity that history does not know the subjunctive mood. What a pity…

Their married couple was rightfully considered the most beautiful family in the Soviet Union. They met at Lenkom in 1976, where Alexander was already playing at that time and where the young actress Irina came. Abdulov and Alferova fell in love with each other at first sight. They looked at each other and could no longer part. They were made for each other. At that time, Alferova, unlike Abdulov, was already known by the whole country from the film “Walking Through Torment.” The entire male population of the country went crazy for the beautiful actress.
Irina Alferova in the film “Walking Through Torment” But no one knew how to care like Abdulov. “He could make a holiday,” says Irina. – I enter the apartment and there are orchids all around. There are orchids everywhere. Above, below, left, right”... To get Irina’s consent to the marriage, Abdulov carried her in his arms for an hour throughout Yerevan, where they were then on tour. She did not agree to get married any other way. However, they were too, even defiantly beautiful. Such marriages do not have harmonious marital relations. When starting a conversation about this marriage, ordinary people usually began with the question: “Are they not divorced yet?” IN Soviet times Abdulov and Alferova were perhaps the only family that endured their family relationships to the public - together with their little daughter Ksenia, they hosted the morning children's television program "Alarm Clock". Not only children, but also adults watched it. There were enough conversations about “how he winked at her” or “how he looked at her” for a whole week. Alexander Abdulov and Irina Alferova with their daughter Ksenia
Irina Alferova with her daughter Ksenia Abdulov and Alferova in the film “Do not part with your loved ones” This film is an ode to the love of Abdulov and Alferova. The plot is quite ordinary: Mitya (Alexander Abdulov) stops believing his wife Katya (Irina Alferova). He is tormented, tormented by jealousy, despite the fact that his wife did not cheat. They are getting divorced. Soon after the divorce, Katya ends up in the hospital. Quiet, with dull eyes, Mitya visits her. Their date is coming to an end. And suddenly she screams, choking with sobs: “I miss you, Mitya!” Pride, the desire for independence - everything is gone. Only love remained - real, all-consuming, the only one that was subjected to a cruel test and found itself again... The film is distinguished by its subtle psychologism and speaks about life in general. About the fact that love does not end after completing the paperwork... About young spouses whose feelings became obvious to them after the trials of jealousy, separation, and suffering. Of course, everyone who watched this film remembers the unforgettable final scene of the main character's hysteria. Quite a long time ago I read Irina Alferova’s confession that in the hysterical scene her heroine Katya goes crazy. This is probably how the play of the same name by Alexander Volodin, on which this poignant film was based, ends. But as such, there is no clear ending in this film... By the way, Irina Alferova never watches the film “Don’t Part With Your Loved Ones.” And in the early 90s, the family found itself at the center of several scandals. At first, Abdulov appeared before the public “without pants” - the scandalous journalist Daria Aslamova published excerpts from her “bed” memoirs. Abdulov was among those seduced. This was the first deep crack in the marriage. Rumors started talking about divorce after Alferova starred in the video of singer Alexander Serov - rumors immediately arose about their possible romance. Alexander Serov and Irina Alferova in the video “Do you love me” Alferova’s confession that she and Abdulov were finally officially divorced and had nothing significant in their lives added fuel to the fire ex-husband she doesn't have to. In 1993, the marriage of the most beautiful couple in the country broke up... After the last conversation with Ira, Abdulov was flying through Moscow at night in a car. His heart was bursting with pain. He only needs Ira. Only she. But she rejected him... “You see, Sasha has done a lot in his life,” says Alferova, “but he is SUCH! And I understand him. It’s just... I just need something completely different in my life, but I understand him why he did all this. Everyone needs Sasha! To all women! It’s for everyone!” After the divorce, Abdulov withdrew into himself. Drank a lot. Played at the casino. He had affairs, trying to find the “second Alferova”... 14 years of wandering without Ira, who all this time, as it turns out, loved him... When Irina found out about Sasha’s illness, she could not find a place for herself. I didn't know what to do. How to help him... “He did not spare himself, he gave a lot of energy, more than is due to people on this earth,” she says. For 9 days, Irina came to Sasha’s grave. She did not cry, sat silently for a long time, then quietly said: “Farewell, beloved!” Ksenia Alferova with her mother at the funeral service

Alexander Abdulov is a talented actor with an attractive appearance, who lived short life, but bright and eventful. The legend of theatrical Moscow, Alexander Gavrilovich was adored by women, so his personal life was always discussed throughout the country. For seventeen years he lived with Irina Alferova. Although before and after marriage, many novels were attributed to Abdulov. But only six months before his death he experienced a wonderful feeling of fatherhood. Yulia Abdulova, the actor’s last wife, became the only woman who gave birth to his daughter Evgenia. The actor himself considers her his second daughter, the first he calls Ksenia Alferova (daughter of Irina Alferova), whom he accepted as his own.

To be remembered

Alexander was born in 1953 in the Tyumen region. The parents of the future People's Artist had a direct connection to the theater. His father worked as a director, and his mother was a make-up artist at a local drama theater. When Sasha was three years old, the family moved to Fergana. It was there that he first earned his first fee, playing the role of a five-year-old village boy. He was paid 3 rubles for his work.

Abdulov did not like to study. He was attracted to the football field and fencing. By the way, the physical training acquired in his youth later helped the actor play roles in films without the involvement of stuntmen. The young man's father dreamed that his son's profession would be related to the theater. Therefore, Alexander went to the school named after Shchepkin to enroll. However, in the second examination round, the jury made the following conclusion: “Inconsistency between appearance and inner character.” The guy was forced to return home. But a year later Abdulov entered GITIS and, after successfully passing his final exams, was immediately invited by Mark Zakharov to join the Lenkom troupe.

Don't be separated from your loved ones...

Alexander Abdulov was not indifferent to women, just as they were to him. The first feeling hit the guy in student years. He fell in love with the maternity hospital nurse Tatyana. But he was not faithful in relationships. An improvident step on Sasha’s part, marked by his betrayal, turned out tragically for him. The girl, having learned about the act of her chosen one, reciprocated: she cheated on Sasha with his friend. As a result, Abdulov opened his veins. Then everything worked out, the actor even managed to avoid closure in psychiatric hospital. By the way, Alexander performed such ambitious actions during his student years. This concerned not only his personal life, but also his studies. They tried to expel him from the institute more than once - the guy’s discipline always suffered.

If Yulia Meshina, who became Abdulov’s second wife, was little known to the Russian audience, then everyone knew the actor’s first wife. in 1976 she joined the Lenkom troupe, where Alexander Gavrilovich played. This meeting marked a seventeen-year marriage. They were called the most beautiful couple in the Soviet Union. And what a disappointment the fans were when they broke up. According to Abdulov’s wife, Irina, Alexander was a romantic hero for all women, and the calm one did not correspond to his inner worldview.

Novels

After breaking up with Alferova, a ballerina appeared in the actor’s life. There is an opinion that she insisted on formalizing the relationship, but Abdulov was against it. Moreover, he dissolved his marriage with Alferova only when he met his last love, which became Yulia Abdulova. But before this moment, Alexander managed to live with Larisa Steinman for two years. She worked as a journalist and they met when Larisa came to interview the People's Artist. It is surprising that they developed a relationship, since Abdulov did not like representatives of the media.

One more a bright event In the actor’s biography, before Abdulov’s wife, Irina Alferova, there was a meeting with dancer Tatyana Leibel. She fell in love with him when he was not yet famous, and Tatyana was already bathed in love from the public. The beautiful relationship ended when Leibel realized that Alexander had passionately fallen in love with another woman. She became the young actress I. Alferova. Until recently, Tatyana maintained friendly relations with Sasha even after emigrating to Canada. Every time she flew to Moscow, she always called him and met.

Meeting of a lifetime

In 2005, an avid fisherman and hunter Alexander Gavrilovich went with friends to Kamchatka. On the same flight, the spectacular brunette Yulia flew from Domodedovo on a business trip. While traveling together, the couple meets with the help of mutual friends. Arriving on the peninsula, Abdulov and Yulia find themselves in the same company in the coming days.

“When we were sitting at the same table, I looked at Sasha and the thought flashed through my mind that he would become my husband and we would have a son. And then, delving deeper into this vision, I realized that this could not be,” recalls Yulia.

Alexander's friends immediately noticed changes in his behavior. He began to resemble a teenager in love. Later, when Yulia was asked in an interview: “What signs of attention did Abdulov show her?”, she recalled the incident. Meeting her on the stairs, he took her hand and began kissing her from wrist to elbow. A wonderful feeling inspired their hearts, but they returned to Moscow separately.

Homecoming

Arriving from Far East, Julia finally decided to divorce her ex-husband. They were notorious in high circles Alexey Ignatenko is a wealthy, intelligent young man. By the New Year, she completed the divorce proceedings and returned to her native Odessa.

Meanwhile, Abdulov realizes that he wants to meet with an attractive brunette, whose thoughts have not left the artist since the moment they met. He instructs his director Elena Chuprakova to contact the girl and invite her to St. Petersburg. To which Abdulov’s future wife, Yulia, refuses. Like, if you want a meeting, then come to me yourself. Women's man Alexander Gavrilovich flew to Odessa this coming weekend. And here's the old one New Year the couple celebrated together, after which they never parted until the illness of the national artist stood in the way of their happiness.

Yulia Abdulova: biography

There is little information about Yulia’s childhood; she never talked about herself or her parents in interviews. Even the date of birth of Yulia Abdulova (Meshina) is shrouded in mystery. The girl was born in Nikolaev in 1974 or 1975; the media sometimes call the month of birth July, less often November. She qualified as a lawyer in Ukhta, where she moved with her mother when she divorced her father. The girl’s uncle, Vitaly, is an influential person in Nikolaev, he for a long time ran an alumina refinery. Yulia's father, Nikolai, helped his brother manage the plant.

In 1998, information appeared in the press about the initiation of a criminal case against Vitaly Meshin under several articles. But due to a lack of evidence and the deteriorating health of the suspect, he was released. Either in order to avoid such punishment, or for some other reasons, Nikolai Meshin at that moment divorced Yulia’s mother and left Nikolaev.

Wedding and the opinions of others about their marriage

In 2006, the couple got married. Yulia Abdulova became the second and last wife of the People's Artist. Only close friends were invited to the wedding. We celebrated the occasion at our favorite Central restaurant. No veils and wedding dress did not have. Family celebration passed without a single paparazzi photos. When the couple first appeared in society, the age difference became a reason for gossip. The pretty brunette began to be accused of commercialism. Yulia Nikolaevna Abdulova herself never sought to get into the artistic circle.

Moreover, at the time they met, the girl’s financial condition was much more stable than Alexander’s. When the woman moved to Moscow after Ukhta, she worked for a Russian-Israeli entrepreneur and knew a producer. In addition, she was married to the son of the director of ITAR-TASS. That is, an apartment, a car and other benefits were available to her. The relationship between Julia and Alexander was tempered from the very beginning. In addition to unpleasant rumors from the public, the girl was not supported by her parents. They were not happy with their relationship, the age difference and the acting profession of the chosen one.

Fictionalist

Alexander Gavrilovich did not have his own children until he was 54 years old. He raised Ksenia Alferova, his stepdaughter from his first marriage, but never considered her to be someone else’s child. He always introduced Ksenia to everyone as his own girl.

After Abdulov’s death, the girl and her husband E. Beroev made the film “The Inventor,” dedicated to the memory of Ksenia’s beloved father. The actor’s closest friends starred in this family film, and the main role was played by Ksenia Alexandrovna. She thanked fate and God for the fact that Alexander Abdulov was her dad. Ksenia Alferova even now feels his support in all her creative projects and in my personal life.

The title of the film “The Inventor” was given for a reason. Friends and relatives remembered Alexander Gavrilovich as a man with a huge imagination. All his stories were based on some fictitious events, and he narrated them with such confidence that those around him inevitably began to believe in it. Therefore, in Ksenia’s heart he was remembered as an inventor, storyteller and wizard.
