In the old days, divorce was considered, if not something shameful, then obviously it was not welcomed by the authorities. Although, of course, people dispersed, remarried, hoping for family happiness. But all the same, the "divorced women" looked in the eyes of society as "second-class women." However, there are always exceptions to the rule - some Soviet ladies could afford not two or three marriages, but a much larger number of them. Today we will tell you about such bright and independent representatives of creative professions who have five or more stamps in their passports, whose personal life has become the subject of discussions throughout the country of the Soviets.

Tatiana Doronina

The charming Tanya had many fans already within the walls of the Moscow Art Theater School, but she chose the handsome Oleg Basilashvili. The young couple played a student wedding without the traditional rings and white wedding dress. This marriage lasted eight years. Almost immediately after the divorce, Tatyana had a new fan, Anatoly Yufit, who had weight in theater circles and was 8 years older than the actress. For a man, it was love at first sight, but the stately beauty left her respectable husband for the sake of playwright Eduard Radzinsky. Perhaps this was the strongest marriage. Tatiana and Eduard agreed on their views on life, moreover, it was interesting with an incredibly erudite writer. They divorced five years later, but now they continue to communicate warmly, calling each other family and friends.

The star of the Soviet stage met her fourth husband at the theater. Actor Boris Khimichev took his young wife to the Riga seaside, but at the end of the honeymoon she ran away on another tour. So the romance gradually faded away. Tatiana Doronina acquired an unexpected admirer by chance when she was choosing a dacha. The head of the gardening partnership, Robert Tokhnenko, turned out to be an official from the oil industry. Their quiet marriage lasted only three years and ended again for a banal reason - the wife could not live a day without a theater, and her husband wanted quiet family happiness with evening gatherings and children's laughter. The People's Artist deliberately did not want to have children, considering the stage to be her only vocation and family. Tatyana Vasilievna never married again.

Lydia Fedoseeva-Shukshina

At the age of 22, the artist gave birth to a daughter, Anastasia, from her husband-actor Vyacheslav Voronin. But soon her husband left for the next shooting, and she herself was torn between Moscow and Leningrad. In the city on the Neva, her parents looked after the child, and her institute of cinematography was located in Moscow. So the marriage fell apart. Soon on the set of the film "What is the sea?" she met the writer, actor and director Vasily Shukshin. This marriage could have been long and happy, if not for the early death of the spouse. A year later, the Russian beauty married director and cameraman Mikhail Agranovich.

But both this and the subsequent marriage with the Polish artist Marek Mezheevsky did not bring peace to the empty female heart. The last attempt to arrange a personal life was an affair with the producer of the group "Na-na" Barry Alibasov. Both parties claim that it was a happy marriage, but after the divorce, data on an apartment in Moscow was revealed: the artist claims that she signed a will for her, but in fact it turned out that it was a dedication to her husband's name. After the trial and the return of the property to the ownership of Fedoseeva-Shukshina, the parties again started talking that they regret such a quick separation …

Lyudmila Tselikovskaya

The diminutive blonde who shone in the 40s of the last century in the musical comedies "Hearts of Four", "Restless Household", "Air Carrier" and others was officially married four times. As she recalled in an interview, her desire to be happy in marriage was real, but she considered it unfair to deceive her husband when she was carried away by others. For the first time, she married while still a student for her colleague Yuri Meskhiev. But a marriage based on passion quickly fell apart. The very next year, the pretty artist acquired a second spouse - the writer Boris Voytekhov.

However, this marriage also cracked - the actor Mikhail Zharov fell in love with it and took the woman away from the family. For six years he idolized his wife, until she herself left him. The loving artist experienced the brightest feelings in her life for the architect Karo Alabyan. It was in this union that she decided to leave her career for a short time and give birth to her son Alexander. Only the premature death of her husband from cancer was able to separate the couple. In the future, the actress did not dare to have hasty marriages. But she was not left alone either. Her fifth, but unregistered marriage was a 16-year relationship with director Yuri Lyubimov.

Natalia Kustinskaya

A charming girl with radiant eyes and a charming smile - this is exactly what the fans remembered this Soviet actress. The beauty knew how to charm men and often used it. However, her personal life cannot be called full of happiness - she survived most of her six husbands, being left alone as a result. The talented director Yuri Chulyukin became her first choice. However, with all career prospects, the spouse turned out to be a terrible jealous person, although he himself allowed himself pranks on the side. When it turned out, Natalya left without hesitation. The woman chose the second spouse with exactly opposite qualities: Oleg Volkov was an excellent family man and did not notice the famous fans of his wife. Everything changed after Natalya met the cosmonaut Boris Egorov.

A passion flared up between celebrities, and neither the marriage of both nor the presence of the actress's little son prevented her. Subsequently, the couple lived together for over 20 years. Everything changed after Natalya found out about the betrayal - the proud woman could not forgive. Egorov apologized for a long time, and three years after the divorce he died. The fourth husband was Professor Gennady Khromushin, but he also died after the operation. The next husband did not please the actress for long either - after five years he was gone. There was also Stas Vanin, but the actress did not live with this person for two years.

Lyudmila Gurchenko

The bright and extraordinary actress had six marriages, but only in her last marriage with Sergei Senin did she find family happiness. For the first time, she jumped out to marry the director Vasily Ordynsky at the age of 18. The second spouse was screenwriter Boris Andronikashvili. It was with him that she gave birth to her daughter Maria, however, she did not want to engage in family comfort and raising a child - the ambitious star was building a career. The next chosen one was the actor and adopted son of the famous Soviet writer Alexander Fadeev. The fourth marriage of the actress was the most memorable: Soviet people looked at the beautiful couple of movie stars with pop singer Joseph Kobzon with pleasure.

But this marriage did not last long either. Lyudmila wanted to shine, and the performer of the songs wanted to have a wife-mistress and mother of children. The next union was not officially registered, although it lasted 18 years. With the pianist Konstantin Kuperveis, Lyudmila Markovna not only lived in a de facto marriage, but also went on tour. However, the relationship with this man, who was fourteen years younger than her, also ended.
