His name is still considered a legend today. Aristotle Onassis was able to reach incredible heights in business and could make money almost out of thin air, constantly increasing his own fortune. But in the life of the billionaire there was another fiery passion - women. True, he also used them to increase welfare or his weight in society. There were many women in the life of Aristotle Onassis, but not all left a mark on his fate.

Ingeborga Dedichen

By the age of 28, Aristotle Onassis managed to become the owner of a very solid fortune and to know all the delights of unlimited attention from women. He took the acquaintance with the daughter of the owner of the Norwegian shipping company Ingeborga Dedichen as a signal for action. The good parentage of the young beauty could help the young millionaire raise his status in society and increase his capital. The presence of an opponent in the person of the girl's swimming coach Onassis did not bother.

He courted very persistently and was able to win the heart of Ingeborga, who forgot about all her fans. From now on, only Aristotle existed for her. Their romance lasted seven years, but was filled not only with passion, but also unbridled jealousy on the part of Onassis. He himself did not remain faithful to his beloved, but the slightest suspicion in her address soon began to pour out into assault. Ingeborga suffered beatings for a long time, but then she simply left the too temperamental Onassis, realizing that his jealousy could lead to tragedy.

Athena Levanos

This is not to say that Aristotle Onassis suffered too much after parting with Ingeborga. Women still accepted his advances with pleasure, but he did not start long affairs for some time. By the age of forty, the millionaire decided to marry and began to choose a bride for himself. In the first place, he put not passionate feelings, but business interests. The choice of the billionaire fell on the 16-year-old Athena Levanos. But before he began courting the young beauty, he had to get the consent of her father, Stavros Levanos, the largest Greek shipbuilder.

The future father-in-law did not immediately agree with the arguments of Aristotle Onassis, but the latter knew how to convince, and the power of his charm practically knew no bounds. As a result, the difference in the age of the daughter and her potential husband ceased to embarrass the shipbuilder, and then he was able to charm the young beauty Tina. In 1946, the billionaire entered into legal marriage for the first time. Later, his wife made him happy with the birth of his son Alexander and daughter Christina.

But neither the wedding nor the birth of children pacified the temper of Onassis. He did not deny himself carnal pleasures, and his wife was forced to endure his beatings because of an accidentally thrown glance in the direction of another man. Tina endured for a long time, but her husband's betrayal almost in front of her eyes put an end to this marriage. Aristotle Onassis himself did not even think to suffer: his heart was already burning with passion for another woman.

Maria Callas

Maria Callas arrived on the luxury yacht of the billionaire, named after Onassis's daughter Christina, with her husband, Giovanni Menezhini, and Athena Levanos was on board. For the billionaire, the presence of his own wife and husband of a woman whose heart he set out to conquer was not at all an obstacle. He persistently courted Maria Callas and won her heart, it seems, for the rest of his life. Tina, who found her husband in the arms of the opera diva, hastened to tell her husband Callas about everything, and immediately upon returning to the shore began the divorce proceedings. Naturally, Maria Callas's marriage also fell apart.

The singer could well count on marriage with a billionaire, but he was in a hurry to lead my beloved down the aisle. Quarrels between lovers flared up more and more often. When Maria Callas told Onassis about her pregnancy, the billionaire forced her to have an abortion. The children that Tina gave birth to him were quite enough for him. The diva did not dare to insist on her own, she got rid of pregnancy and later called it her biggest mistake. She was not destined to experience the happiness of motherhood, and she never became the legal wife of a billionaire. Callas learned about his marriage to another from the newspapers.

Jacqueline Kennedy

The marriage of Aristotle Onassis and the former first lady of the United States, Jacqueline Kennedy, was discussed by the whole world. They met back in 1963, when Jacqueline was recovering from the loss of her child on the yacht "Christine", being in the company of her sister Lee Radziwill. There were rumors about the latter's romance with a loving billionaire, but Jacqueline herself, except for a pleasant time on a luxury yacht, did not connect anything with Aristotle Onassis until a certain time.

After the death of John F. Kennedy, Jacqueline began to frequent the yacht Christine, and five years later she became the wife of Aristotle Onassis. Each of them had their own interest in this marriage. Onassis, with the help of Jackie, was going to conquer America, Kennedy's widow wanted to protect herself and her children, seriously fearing for her and their safety.

The five-year term seemed to the Americans insufficient for the president's widow to remarry, and therefore the public was outraged, and journalists even refused to pronounce Jackie's new surname aloud. However, the spouses themselves soon became convinced that they should not have gotten married at all. For Jacqueline, the only pleasant pastime was the waste of her husband's money. She indulged in shopping with the delight of a maniac, filling the dressing room with dozens of new dresses and the same number of shoes a day. Aristotle Onassis seriously feared for the safety of his fortune and even hired a private detective to find compromising evidence on his dear spouse and divorce without much financial loss.

But he failed to put an end to this relationship. The death of his son Alexander in a plane crash greatly affected the health of Onassis. He ended up in the hospital, while his wife enjoyed spending time in New York. She remembered about the "beloved" wife only after his death, and even then only in order to receive an inheritance and demand from the daughter of Onassis Christina the amount of $ 26 million, so as not to remind of herself anymore.

Christina Onassis

It seems that only one woman in the world had every right to say that Aristotle Onassis loves her. And this was his daughter, who had never heard the word "no" from her father. He fulfilled all the whims and whims of the heiress, she could always count on him and on his money.

Christina was very similar to her father and was distinguished by a hot temperament, amorousness and a penchant for adventures. She officially married four times, once even with a simple Soviet employee Sergei Kauzov. After the death of her brother, and then her father, a colossal responsibility fell on Christina. She repeatedly went to the clinic to get rid of depression, and at the age of 37 she died under unexplained circumstances.

The development of relations between Christina Onassis and Soviet employee Sergei Kauzov was closely watched all over the world, the most authoritative publications were full of headlines with their names. Only the Soviet media did not break their vow of silence on this topic. This marriage threatened to increase the influence of the Soviet Union on the world economy. And yet, the country's top leadership doubted for a long time the advisability of marrying a Soviet citizen to the richest woman in the world.
