Representatives of creative professions usually work with full dedication, sometimes forgetting that in addition to work, there is also family, friends, relatives. Undoubtedly, they need the support of loved ones, but very often it is their personal life and family happiness that sacrifice their careers and professional ambitions. In today's roundup, here are the celebrity families that have collapsed over their careers.

Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio

The American film star was legally married to baseball player Joe DiMaggio during the filming of the Seven Year Itch. It was in this picture that Marilyn starred over the hatch of the ventilation shaft, the wind from which fluttered her dress. Absolutely everyone was delighted with this shot, and the “flying dress” actually became the actress's calling card. But Marilyn's husband, who was so desperately jealous of the actress, could not calmly react to this scene. There is an opinion that it was the frank, according to the husband of the actress, shooting that became the last straw that led the couple to divorce.

Nikita Mikhalkov and Anastasia Vertinskaya

The union of two young and famous actors, it seemed, was doomed to become happy: Nikita Mikhalkov and Anastasia Vertinskaya actually loved each other. However, they turned out to have too different ideas about the family. Nikita Sergeevich from his youthful years was sure: in a family a man should be a breadwinner and head, and the lot of his wife should be the keeper of the family hearth, raise children, lead a house. But Anastasia Vertinskaya did not share the views of her husband: she dreamed of a career, of new star roles, of working with famous directors. As a result, quarrels began in the young family, which led to a divorce.

Julia Roberts and Benjamin Brett

By the time she received the Oscar in 2001, Julia Roberts was engaged to actor Benjamin Brett, with whom they had been together for over three years. However, less than three months after the actress received an Oscar, the couple broke up. As it turned out later, Benjamin Bratt dreamed of a normal strong family, where the spouse would devote a lot of time to the children and their common home. But Julia Roberts herself could not imagine herself outside the cinema and the brilliance of spotlights. The actress chose a stellar career for her family.

Vasily Lanovoy and Tatiana Samoilova

It was a touching romantic story of the acquaintance and first love of two students of the Shchukin School, promising and undoubtedly very talented actors. There were walks under the moonlight and reading poetry, there were lovely surprises for each other and a modest wedding. And then Tatiana became pregnant and secretly got rid of the child from her husband. Her career was booming at the time and she was not going to give up on her dream. And she was not ready for children.

Vasily Lanovoy, to whom Tatyana confessed that she had an abortion, could not completely forgive his wife. Later, the actress said: she decided to get rid of the baby on the recommendation of doctors who feared for her health. In fact, the reason was much simpler: unwillingness to part with the dream of a brilliant career.

Marina Yakovleva and Valery Storozhik

The actress, who at one time survived a divorce from Andrei Rostotsky, very much hoped that her second marriage would be long and happy. It seemed that at first everything was exactly like that. However, in the family of the actress with Valery Storozhik, disagreements began after the birth of the eldest son Fedor. Marina Yakovleva was actively filming, was at the zenith of her fame and was not going to find herself out of work. The husband felt hurt when he was introduced as the husband of the actress, although at the beginning of his family life he assured his chosen one that he would never interfere with her career. However, after the birth of his second son, the Guardian forgot about all his promises and demanded the constant presence of his wife at home. Their youngest son Ivan was only a year old when the couple parted.

Svetlana Khodchenkova and Vladimir Yaglych

The actors met on the set and seemed to be very happy together. However, while Svetlana Khodchenkova's career went uphill, Vladimir Yaglych was forced to be content with only supporting roles. The actress was actively filming not only in Russia, but also abroad, and such a situation could not satisfy her husband. Serious scandals began in the family, according to unverified data, Vladimir Yaglych even allowed himself to raise his hand to his beautiful wife. True, he categorically denies the fact of assault. Nevertheless, five years after the wedding, Svetlana Khodchenkova and Vladimir Yaglych broke up.

Boris Khimichev and Tatiana Doronina

Officially, the marriage of Tatyana Doronina and Boris Khimichev lasted nine years, but the crisis in family relations, which they could not overcome, began much earlier. According to the actor himself, he felt uncomfortable when he was introduced to the husband of Tatyana Doronina. She was brighter and more successful, and besides, she also categorically refused to give birth, because this was not at all part of her creative plans and could interfere with her career.

Tatiana Arntgolts and Ivan Zhidkov

The success of his wife Tatyana Arntgolts and her husband Ivan Zhidkov was very difficult. It is known that he was very upset when he was introduced as the husband of a famous actress. However, the spouses managed to maintain good relations for the sake of their daughter Maria, whose upbringing they continue to be engaged in together.

Lyubov Polishchuk and Valery Makarov

The artists met while working at the Omsk Philharmonic, where Lyubov Polishchuk was admitted after she was late for the entrance exams in Moscow. Later, Valery Makarov and Lyubov Polishchuk studied together at the All-Russian creative workshop of pop art, returned to Omsk, where their son Alexei was born. But Lyubov Polishchuk always dreamed of a career in the capital, and her husband believed that it was enough to be a star in Omsk. In addition, Valery Makarov began to abuse alcohol, and therefore Lyubov Polishchuk, having received an invitation to Rosconcert, decided to use her chance, moved to the capital, and later graduated from GITIS. Valery Makarov lived all his life in Omsk and did not see either his ex-wife or his own son anymore.

Christina Asmus and Garik Kharlamov

This is not the first time these actors become the heroes of the gossip. The media constantly report about the upcoming divorce of Christina Asmus and Garik Kharlamov, and the spouses diligently pretend that nothing unusual is happening in their lives. However, after the release of the film "Text", such a stream of negativity fell on the star couple that it is increasingly difficult for the spouses to remain calm. Garik Kharlamov is now trying in every possible way to support his wife, who receives quite real threats from moralists accusing the actress of debauchery. Who knows if this time Garik Kharlamov and Kristina Asmus will be able to maintain a tender relationship, invariably shown to the public?

In society, there is an opinion that men are much easier to tolerate divorce than their companions. In fact, everything depends both on the man himself and on his psycho-emotional state and the reasons for the divorce. Some famous and very successful men do not hesitate to admit that they have gone through hard parting with their soul mate. Some men plunged into depression for several months, others could not hold back their tears, and still others tried to find solace in creativity.
