The audience remembered and loved this actress, first of all, as Lyuba Trofimova from the cult film "Officers". Colleagues and friends of the actress affectionately call her Alena and never cease to be amazed at the delicacy and restraint of a person who can rightfully call himself a real star. She always had many admirers, but Alina Stanislavovna found her true happiness only in her third marriage, knowing the joy of motherhood. Who grew up the only son of the actress?

In search of personal happiness

Alina Novak (the actress's maiden name) was born in Stalino in 1940. Her mother, Alexandra Kovalenko, worked at the local music and drama theater, her father Stanislav Novak served as an illuminator there. True, the girl's dad went to the front from the first days of the war, and after that he got another family.

During the Great Patriotic War, Alina and her mother went to evacuate to Stalingrad, then to Astrakhan. In 1951, together with her mother and stepfather Valentin Aleksandrov, a trumpeter and later conductor of a symphony orchestra, Alina ended up in Moscow. Here she grew up, entered the Schepkin School and was accepted into the troupe of the Central Theater of the Soviet Army, where she still works.

Within the walls of the theater school, Alina Novak met her first husband, actor Alexei Pokrovsky, who was her teacher. It was under his name that she later became famous, although the marriage itself was not too long.

The second marriage of the actress lasted for nine years, but it is hardly possible to call these years happy for Alina Stanislavovna. Her husband, handsome and womanizer Vladimir Soshalsky, was imposing and famous. He was officially married five times, but in his life there were also long and not very romances.

At the same time, all his wives agreed: the actor was not a traitor, as a rule, he remained faithful to the woman with whom he lived. Only now, not everyone could withstand the endless and unrestrained fun that reigned in the house. Even Nonna Mordyukova withstood only six months, she also called Alina Stanislavovna a hero, having learned that she held out for nine years. But Alina Pokrovskaya dreamed that her husband would settle down and think about children.

Vladimir Soshalsky already had a daughter, Nina, from a previous marriage, and he believed that this was quite enough. But his wife really wanted to become a mother, and therefore, tired of waiting, she decided to just end her marriage and filed for divorce.

The third marriage was truly happy for Alina Pokrovskaya. She lived with actor Herman Yushko for more than forty years, until the last day of her husband, who died of cancer. In this marriage, the actress finally knew the happiness of motherhood and gave birth to her only child, her son Alexei.

Not looking back at the glory of the parents

Alina Pokrovskaya and German Yushko became wonderful parents. According to the memoirs of the godfather Alexei, actor Alexei Barinov, the boy was amazing, he was distinguished by his special view of the world. From his parents, he fully inherited not only natural modesty, but also a tactful and very careful attitude towards others.

It never occurred to Alexei Yushko to boast that his parents are very famous people. He, like many children of actors, grew up almost behind the scenes of the theater and saw all the performances with the participation of his parents. Since childhood, he was familiar with the reverse side of the profession: frequent tours, filming sometimes in the most difficult conditions, the constant absence of home.

His parents raised him quite strictly, but at the same time they always treated him with due respect, avoiding an orderly tone or undue pressure on their son. Surely, Alina Pokrovskaya and German Yushko dreamed that their son would grow up and become the successor of the acting dynasty. But Alexei Yushko was not at all attracted by the light of the ramps, or the prospect of going on stage.

He was drawn to a completely different world, where it is possible, even without a time machine, to make an excursion into the past, to get acquainted with the secrets kept by historical documents and manuscripts of the past. Therefore, after leaving school, he applied to the history department of Moscow University, from which he graduated with honors. At present, the historian Aleksey Yushko serves at the State Historical Museum in the department of sources.

He is married, his son is growing up and, of course, Alina Stanislavovna believes that the boy is being pampered too much. True, she herself does not interfere, she only advises her son to be a little stricter with the child.

After the death of her husband, Alina Pokrovskaya lives alone, but her son and grandson try to visit her as soon as there is a free minute. The actress is trying to solve all her problems on her own, despite her rather mature age. She, with her inherent delicacy, does not want to burden anyone with her problems. But Alexey, of course, tries not to leave his mother with his attention and care.

Fans today stubbornly call Alina Pokrovskaya Lyuba Trofimova, associating the actress with the heroine of the film "Officers", after the release of which she became a truly national favorite. She received bags of letters from the audience with a marriage proposal, Georgiy Yumatov tried to look after her. At that time Alina Pokrovskaya was not married, but she already considered herself not free.
