Igor Bochkin became famous after playing the role of the first secretary of the district committee in the film "State of emergency of the regional scale", where he had a chance to act in very spicy scenes. After that, there were still many works in the cinema and endless attempts to find his personal happiness, which he stopped taking only after meeting his fourth wife, Anna Legchilova. For almost 20 years, the couple have been happy together, but what could have made them hide their own son for three whole years?

Three divorces

Igor Bochkin first starred in a movie at school age, but his almost childhood experience in the films "Lights" and "Red Sun" is considered frivolous. After leaving school, he immediately went to the army, and upon returning from military service, he already submitted documents to GITIS, where he entered on the first try.

The institute gave him not only confidence in the correct choice of profession, but also the acquaintance with his first wife, classmate Alisa Zavenyagina. True, immediately after graduation, this marriage broke up. Igor Bochkin immediately after graduating from GITIS got a place in the troupe of the Gogol Theater, and Alisa faced certain difficulties. Later, she began to work at the Yermolova Theater, and the paths of the spouses went their separate ways.

Igor Bochkin soon married a second time. His chosen one Svetlana served as a costume designer and gave her husband a daughter, Alexander. But this attempt to find happiness was also unsuccessful. And along with the acquisition of another stamp of divorce, the actor lost his daughter. The baby was only six months old when Svetlana, along with Alexandra, left for Spain. Igor Bochkin admits: he did not consider himself entitled to ruin the lives of the people he loved, so he signed permits for his daughter to travel abroad. On this, his connection with his ex-wife and daughter was cut off.

The third wife of the actor, with whom Igor Bochkin lived for 12 years, was Svetlana Zubkova, an economist. But this marriage also ended in divorce, and Anna Legchilova soon appeared in his life.

Love affair at work

As Anna Legchilova herself says, in most cases, acting marriages begin with office romances, because it is at work that they spend almost all their time. When, at the rehearsal of the play "Travelers in the Night" at the Pushkin Theater, she first saw Igor Bochkin, she did not like him at all, on the contrary, it seemed too serious and even pretentious.

Their romance began with a turning point. During one of the performances, Igor Bochkin very unsuccessfully threw Anna past the bed on the stage, and as a result, the actress broke her finger, tore a tendon in her arm and received a concussion. The director was going to replace Anna Legchilova in the play, but Bochkin immediately announced that he would not play with anyone but Anna. This was the beginning of their relationship.

Three years under the cover of secrecy

Igor Bochkin and Anna Legchilova passionately wanted to have children. For ten years, both of them were treated, examined, treated again, but the long-awaited pregnancy did not come. A lot of effort, time and money was invested in the treatment, the actors were already ready to come to terms with the fact that they would not become parents. Doctors simply shrugged their shoulders, not seeing any objective obstacles to the appearance of a child.

When Anna finally uttered the cherished words: "You will become a dad," the future parents made a joint decision not to tell the whole world about it. It was their little secret that made them especially happy. Even the closest people learned about the birth of a child after the fact. For example, when Anna called her younger brother on the phone and said that he had become an uncle, he did not even believe, deciding that his sister was joking.

Ivan was born in August 2016, and the young parents decided that they would not draw attention to their son only for the first time. And after that this very "first time" dragged on for several years. As Igor Bochkin says, they seemed to be afraid to talk about their son. And so it turned out that for three years, very few people from the environment of the actors could boast of being involved in the secret of this family.

When journalists asked the spouses questions about children, Igor Bochkin and Anna Legchilova only smiled mysteriously in response and spoke vaguely about their dreams and plans to become parents. And in 2019, Anna Legchilova on the social network Instagram posted her photo with Ivan in her arms and a signature that she became a mother.

After the pictures of Ivan and his mother, they began to appear more and more often, however, the child was always turned with the back of his head to the camera. Then Igor Bochkin himself told his wife that such behavior was already overkill. After some thought, Anna Legchilova agreed with her husband and is no longer afraid to show the face of her four-year-old son.

The actress, by her own admission, has become a completely crazy mother, and this sometimes becomes the cause of conflicts in the family. If Igor Bochkin does not agree with the methods of raising his wife, she immediately tells him to take care of her son, but as soon as he starts, she immediately takes all the reins of government from her husband and brings up Ivan herself again. The actor is sure: at such a pace, very soon the belt will be needed not only by Ivan, but also by his mother. However, the actor immediately looks at his wife and son, and a gentle smile appears on his face.

It seems that the whole life of public people is in full view of the media and the public. It is often impossible to hide even an extra pound at the waist from the attention of fans, and usually it becomes known very quickly about the upcoming replenishment in the families of celebrities. But there are women who know how to hide their "interesting position" until the baby is born.
