7 years ago. On March 30, 2011, one of the brightest film and stage stars of the twentieth century passed away. Lyudmila Gurchenko … She was outstanding in everything and knew how to make an impression both on the set and beyond. Acquaintances spoke of her as a passionate and enthusiastic nature, which is confirmed by a considerable number of marriages, the exact number of which the actress herself never named. In general, she rarely remembered her first marriages, which she considered "gaps" in her biography.
Lyudmila Gurchenko met her first husband while studying at VGIK. At that time, she was 18 years old, and he was 30, but this age difference did not stop them and did not frighten them, unlike those around them. The young director Vasily Ordynsky did not hide his close relationship with the young actress, and when he proposed her candidacy for the lead role in his film "A Man Is Born", he met with unanimous condemnation of the artistic council - the protection of his mistress was regarded as a violation of Soviet morality. They stayed together for about a year, in most sources this marriage is called civil. Gurchenko never talked about the reasons for their separation, only once saying that she "could not forgive the betrayal." According to other sources, Ordynsky himself was the initiator of the separation.
No one knew about how many official marriages Lyudmila Gurchenko actually had. She herself called different numbers each time. Nobody knew about some of her chosen ones. As well as the existence of a daughter, about whom the actress almost never spoke. Maria was born in the second marriage of Gurchenko to Boris Andronikashvili, a student of the screenwriting department, the son of the writer Boris Pilnyak and the Georgian princess Kira Andronikashvili. She also met him at VGIK, and the novel developed just as rapidly. Gurchenko was proud that such a handsome man and intellectual was next to her, all her classmates envied her.
But after 3 years, this marriage broke up - the husband was not ready for family life, did not take her profession seriously, and besides, he cheated on his wife. "", - wrote about him Gurchenko.
The next chosen one of Lyudmila Gurchenko was the actor Alexander Fadeev Jr. - the adopted son of the writer Alexander Fadeev and the artist of the Moscow Art Theater Angelina Stepanova. Their whirlwind romance ended in a wedding. And again, very soon, Gurchenko realized that the decision to tie herself by marriage was too rash and thoughtless. The husband lived on a grand scale, spending all his free time in restaurants and not denying himself anything. After 2 years, the artist got tired of his constant spree and left. She called this marriage "an unfortunate mistake" and a "blank" in her life.
However, the mistakes of her youth did not stop her from subsequent rash decisions. After fleeting romances with actor Anatoly Vedenkin and artist Boris Diodorov, she was going to get married again. True, Boris Diodorov, who for the sake of Gurchenko left his family, called her his wife, although their marriage was not officially registered. Their relationship lasted only a year, and Diodorov recalled them with regret: "".
And the next official husband of Lyudmila Gurchenko was Joseph Kobzon. There were legends about this marriage - two stars, two outstanding personalities who were too dissimilar to be a happy couple. Nevertheless, their union lasted for about three years. And both spouses, years later, called him a colossal mistake, therefore, as a rule, this fact was not mentioned in the biography of the actress and in the biography of the singer. Kobzon claimed that he decided to register a marriage with Gurchenko only because they were denied a joint settlement in hotels, and said: "". And Gurchenko admitted: "".
But Gurchenko's relationship with pianist Konstantin Kuperveis lasted 18 years - from 1973 to 1991, although the marriage was civil, and his wife was 14 years older than her chosen one. The actress admitted that she was very happy during this period. Coopervis sacrificed his musical career for her and became her accompanist, administrator and secretary, took care of his wife at home and on tour, indulging all her whims and whims. Filling out the questionnaire, he wrote in the column "specialty": "Gurchenko's husband." But Kuperways could not stand the fact that he constantly remained on the sidelines with his wife-star, who constantly suppressed him, and after years he left for another woman.
The last husband of the artist was businessman and producer Sergei Senin, who was 26 years younger than Gurchenko. They met on the set in 1993. The actress at that time was 58 years old, and he was 32. For her sake, he left the family and stayed with her until the last days - they lived together for 18 years, until her death in 2011.
In memory of the stunning actress, there are films that have long become classics of Soviet cinema: 16 roles of the magnificent Lyudmila Gurchenko.
