Natalya is unable to communicate with anyone today ex-husband, nor with his parents, although they, Valentina and Boris Tszyu, also live in Sydney. She doesn’t prohibit her children from seeing them, but she herself has cut off all contact. “She is offended by them because they could not guide their son on the right path, explain to him that he should not leave his family,” says Natalya’s mother, Valentina Anikina. - Nobody could contradict him. Why did this happen? You need to ask Kostya. It's not my daughter's fault. She raised the kids and looked after the house. And he found himself 10 years younger..."

The famous boxer's divorce took place in December 2013; he himself did not come to Sydney for the court hearing. For several years, Konstantin hid from his wife that he was in love with someone else. And then he made a choice. “StarHit” found out how the family’s life was shaping up after Kostya’s departure.

Money is melting before our eyes

68-year-old Valentina Anikina lives in the city of Serov, Sverdlovsk region, with the family of her eldest granddaughter, the daughter of Natalya Tszyu’s brother. And although my heart bleeds, I’m so worried about Natasha, I’m afraid to fly to Australia. Once upon a time I traveled with my husband Leonid; he died last summer. He misses his grandchildren living in Sydney greatly. I saw them when they were little. But when he calls his daughter, he often asks about them. He knows that the eldest, 19-year-old Timofey, went with friends on a trip to Thailand and China in January, and earned everything himself - he is a salesman in a fresh-squeezed juice store. The middle one, 16-year-old Nikita, is interested in boxing, like his dad. And the youngest, 12-year-old Nastya, plays the piano. Now, after the divorce, Natalya also shares her problems and concerns with her mother.

“Kostya doesn’t help Natasha with money,” Valentina Sergeevna tells StarHit. – In Australia they are not forced to pay alimony, only at will. But he left her his business of selling T-shirts and boxing gloves and real estate: two villas and the house in which they lived...” That same December, immediately after the divorce, Natalya sold the house in which, as it seemed to her, they lived so happily more than 10 years. Everything about him reminded him of his husband. In addition, it became clear that she simply could not afford to maintain this cottage any longer. “You need to invest money in it - to take care of lawns and trees,” Natalya’s mother continues. “So she moved with her children into a rented three-room apartment, paying $800 a week in rent. And in the future he plans to buy a living space.”

From the sale of the house they managed to earn a substantial amount - $2.9 million. Part of these funds goes to the maintenance of the villas; the family plans to rent them out, but there are no tenants yet. As Valentina Sergeevna says, money melts like snow on a summer day, Natasha tries to save. I transferred Nikita from a fee-paying school to a regular school, but left Nastya there. “It’s good that Nikita is in his final year, and Tim is already in college,” says the grandmother.

Yoga against stress

Kostya Tszyu periodically calls the children and asks how they are doing. Last time he was in Sydney last November for Timofey's birthday. And earlier, in the summer, the eldest son visited his dad in Moscow for a few days, but he didn’t want to stay in the apartment where he lived with his new lover - he spent the night in a hotel.

Natalya has no plans to return to Russia. For 20 years, Australia became her home country, and the children got used to the local way of life. All three of them morally support my mother and feel sorry for her. IN free time they ride a boat together, go to aqua and amusement parks.

Now 41-year-old Natalya is looking for work. She has two diplomas - an accountant and a sales manager. She would like to get a job according to her profile. As her mother tells StarHit, Natalya goes to a local health center and does yoga. She carefully monitors her figure, although, judging by the photographs, she does not have extra pounds. “At least it’s somehow distracting, it relieves stress! The story with this Tanya began with Kostya a long time ago, about six years ago. Of course, after some time Natasha noticed strange text messages and calls. I was very worried,” Valentina Sergeevna laments. “As long as she doesn’t have a man, the children come first, they need to get on their feet, the work issue can be resolved, and then you can dream about your personal life...”

Despite the fact that Konstantin Tszyu divorced his wife several years ago and has a new marriage with Muscovite Tatyana Averina, the boxer communicates with his sons and daughter from a previous relationship. The athlete spends most of his time in Moscow, but still often flies to his children in Sydney. On one of his visits, Konstantin made unusual gift 21-year-old son Timofey.

“Dad bought me a license plate with our last name,” Timofey shared with StarHit. “You can’t travel like that in Russia, but abroad it’s a common thing.”

Many people note that Timofey is strikingly similar to his father - literally the same face. The guy is studying at the university, and in the future he plans to do business. Like his famous father, Tszyu Jr. is involved in boxing. The young man regularly demonstrates on social networks some of the consequences of intense training, which both shocks and delights his friends.

His brother, 18-year-old Nikita, also takes part in the fights in the ring. And 13-year-old sister Nastya is still in school and attends a theater club. Tszyu’s ex-wife Natalya works in the tourism industry. Kostya’s parents also live in Sydney, practically next door and help Natalya with the children whenever possible.

Let us remember that at the beginning of last year Kostya Tszyu celebrated his wedding with his new lover Tatyana Averina and became a father for the fourth time. The celebration took place on February 28 in the circle of close friends, away from camera flashes - the wedding of a 45-year-old Kostya Tszyu and 34-year-old Tatyana Averina sang and danced on February 28 at the boxer’s Moscow restaurant “Boat”.

For this occasion, Kostya’s children from his first marriage flew in from Sydney: Timofey, Nikita and Anastasia, as well as his parents – Valentina Vladimirovna and Boris Timofeevich. On Tatyana’s side was her mother Elena and 16-year-old son Nikita. About 30 guests had fun in the closed banquet hall "Boat", where there is karaoke. They all learned about the celebration within a few days.

But Natalya Tszyu has no plans to return to Russia. For 20 years, Australia has become her home country, and the children have become accustomed to an already established way of life. Natalya has two diplomas - an accountant and a sales manager. As her mother Valentina Sergeevna told StarHit, Natalya goes to a health center and does yoga. She carefully monitors her figure, although, judging by the photographs, she does not have extra pounds. The personal life of the boxer’s ex-wife is still unknown. But several years ago, in an exclusive interview with StarHit, she admitted that she would like to meet an understanding person.

Not long ago, a famous boxer Konstantin Tszyu officially divorced after 20 years of marriage. His new chosen one was his PR assistant Tatyana Averina. Looking at their happy faces, I would like to wish this couple an heir.

It was fate

Olga Shablinskaya, AiF: Kostya, everything in your life is new now... A new country. New love...

Konstantin Tszyu: Excuse me! What does "new country" mean? I was born here. Russia is the foundation on which Kostya Tszyu is built. I love Australia, but I never considered myself an emigrant; I was constantly in Russia. But I returned here for good for certain reasons.

- And the name of this reason is love...

- Tatiana. (Laughs.) We met through mutual friends. A banal and completely random meeting that changed a lot in our lives. I believe in the word "fate"...

Tatyana Averina: In general, I took him here. (Laughs.)

— Is it really possible to “take away” a boxing champion?

- Without desire it is impossible. I can't be forced to do anything. No amount of money can buy it.

— Kostya, you have three children from your first marriage. How do your relationships with your sons and daughter develop after a divorce?

- WITH Nastenka talked today. She finally called herself. This hasn't happened for a long time. Great! I enjoy it when children make their own calls.

My personal attitude towards children has not changed one bit. Their attitude towards me? I think the divorce might have had something to do with it. But I told them one thing: “There may come a time in life when you need me. One call from you and I’ll be there.” This faith in the father is something that children must retain. I will strictly follow my promise. I have no right to betray them. Never. (Asks his wife.) Timokha when did you arrive? Last year. Nikita I was supposed to fly here, but it didn’t work out because of my studies. It's his last year at school. But I fly to Australia myself - just to see the children.

“I don’t lend money”

— How did you tell the children that you were breaking up with their mother?

- Well, how can I tell you... Children are not stupid, they understand everything, they see everything for themselves. I don't talk to them about this topic. The moment will come, maybe I’ll tell my story. Although, it seems to me, he said it all... I fell in love with a person.

- You know, looking at situations like yours, when a husband or wife leaves the family, I always ask myself the question: what is more decent - to continue living with your spouse because of the children and a sense of duty, or to sincerely succumb to feelings and create a new “unit of society”?

- I couldn't lie. He did not deceive his then-wife. When I met Tatyana, after some time I told the children’s mother: “Like this...” He couldn’t do it any other way. But the divorce process... It was not so simple, everything had to be done through the courts. The registration process was completed only on December 3.

— What new did Tatyana discover in you?

— I would formulate this question differently: what did I find inside myself thanks to Tanya? Maybe the softness that has always been in me...

— I know that Tatyana is now managing your projects...

- Commander, commander, yes. (Looks at his wife.) She also smiles!

- And how does Kostya Tszyu live when a woman controls him?

- No, I’m still in charge. There is a word "lead". And there is “manage”. These are different things. You see, it’s important for me to have a person next to me who will organize everything that I can’t manage on my own. This is Tatyana. And hiring someone... I came across this matter... And I saw meanness, hypocrisy, self-interest. By self-interest I mean some kind of sneaky thing...

- Were you betrayed?

- A lot of. Therefore, I can say: I don’t trust almost anyone... This was not just a friend, but a close friend. Entrance to the house. I trusted him with my bank accounts. The person had the right to sign, could open credit cards in my name... And now you find out that they “had” you, and with money...

- What did they do when they discovered this?

— Nothing, although I don’t preach the principle “if you hit me on the cheek, turn the other one.” No matter how hard it was for me, I didn’t want to take revenge and stoop to his level. I will say more: I am the godfather of his children, and they remain as close to me as they were before. But since then I haven’t lent money to anyone.

- Okay, let's not talk about sad things. I know that your eldest son Timofey Tszyu successfully fought several fights in Australia. Does at least one of the boys have the same abilities as you?

- As for me - no. For the simple reason that I was hungry. But they don’t. There is such an expression in the West: “Hungry for success” - “Hungry for success.” I fought for my life directly and figuratively. The four of us - mom, dad, me and sister - we lived in a small room, 16 square meters. Now I can’t even imagine how it was possible to fit in there purely physically - where they put the furniture, where they fit winter and summer clothes - after all, they lived in the Urals. I had barely turned 17 and was already European champion. At the age of 15 he began traveling abroad. At the age of 18 I was given my first apartment - a 35-meter apartment. And in Australia I already had a house of about a thousand square meters... I got a lot early, but at what cost? And I teach children: nothing is given for nothing. When the middle one, Nikita, was 9-10 years old, he said: “Dad, when I grow up, I will have a Bentley.” - “Well done, son, you’ll probably work a lot?” - “No, the car is already in the garage.” - “This one is daddy’s.” He thought and said: “Okay, but I will have it too.” Let him have the motivation to earn money for such a car himself.

And my daughter... Nastenka was playing the piano - she gave up. I did gymnastics and also gave up. It’s more difficult for me with Nastya, she’s a girl, if she cries, she’s basically on guard.

With daughter. “It’s more difficult for me with Nastya than with boys, because she’s a girl!” Photo from the personal archive of Kostya Tszyu

— Do women’s tears scare you?

- If these are real tears, yes, they are scary. But you women know how to cry very artistically. I realized this when I went to school acting skills. I wanted to truly learn artistic craft. Plus I host a program on Domashny called “Culinary Duel” - I determine who is the best housewife - mother-in-law or daughter-in-law. For me, acting and television is a certain challenge to myself.

- Kostya, aren’t you upset that boxers are considered...

- Nearby? (Laughs.) Somehow Sasha Lebzyak- senior coach of the Russian national boxing team - told me an anecdote: “Why do boxers drive fast? So as not to forget where they are going.” And then he cursed: “Damn, I missed the turn!” (Laughs.) We are not shy about telling jokes about boxers. I like to joke myself. About 3-4 years ago Tanya and I went to a restaurant. I was hungry like an animal. I ordered meat. They brought it, I ate it in one second, wiped the plate very carefully. The waitress comes up, I look at her carefully: “When will you bring me the meat?” In all seriousness. She: “I... already...” - “Really?” And I'm taking a theatrical break. But Tatyana “gave me in” - with a smile and laughter. In general, I’ll try out my acting knowledge in life. (Laughs.)
