Alexander Ustyugov was remembered by the audience for the role of the brutal and implacable crime fighter Roman Shilov from the series "Cop Wars". This project started in 2004, and in 2018 the 11th season of the crime saga was released. The actor admits that he is a little tired of his hero, but does not want to leave him out of gratitude, since it is Shilov who owes his first successes in cinema. Unlike many years of work in the series, Ustyugov's personal life is not so constant. After two unsuccessful marriages, he has not yet managed to create a happy family for the third time.
Moscow wife
Ustyugov was born in 1976 in the Pavlodar region, which belongs to the territory of modern Kazakhstan. His path to cinema was not easy. Having studied in his hometown as an electrician, the future actor entered the Shchukin Theater School four times. In between unsuccessful attempts, Alexander even managed to graduate from the College of Culture and Art in Omsk. Finally, in 1999, luck smiled at the persistent young man, and Ustyugov ended up at the Shchukin School for a course with Rodion Ovchinnikov.
During his studies, he met his future wife - classmate Yanina Sokolovskaya. When a romantic relationship arose between them, Alexander did not immediately come to terms with their difference in financial situation. Yana was born and raised in Moscow. The girl's family was considered wealthy. And Ustyugov lived in a hostel without even having a permanent source of income. Sometimes, after seeing Yana home, he walked back to his apartment for three hours, because the metro did not work, and the poor student could not afford a taxi.
The lovers decided to live together during their studies, at first they settled in the apartment of Sokolovskaya's parents. But after a couple of months, Ustyugov invited the girl to return to the hostel with him, since in someone else's apartment he felt like a guest, and not the head of their small family. Yana agreed to move and resignedly arranged life in the hostel, learned to cook and clean. She was not at all embarrassed by material differences. On the contrary, Sokolovskaya believed that very soon the beloved man would achieve success in the profession and be able to provide for the family himself.
The couple moved from the hostel against their will. They were asked to vacate the room, since there were not enough places, and Yana and Alexander actually had their own housing in Moscow. This time, the lovers settled in an apartment that Sokolovskaya inherited from relatives. Ustyugov, like a real man, took over the issues of repair and home improvement. Remembering the education of an electrician, he even took up electrical wiring himself.
Yana and Alexander got married in August 2005. By that time, the actor had started acting in the "Cop Wars", his affairs went uphill. Therefore, he paid for the wedding himself and even gave his wife a brand new foreign car.
When the spouses were already waiting for the addition to the family, Ustyugov helped his wife's stepfather with the renovation of a three-story country house. The young family was given a whole floor there, which they decorated and furnished to their liking. So the couple's daughter Zhenya, who was born in 2007, grew up in the fresh air from birth.
The couple worked together at the Youth Theater, where Ustyugov tried his hand at being a director. In the production "The Dawns Here Are Quiet …" he entrusted his wife with the role of Evgenia Komelkova. Together, the couple also appeared in the series "Cop Wars". When Roman Shilov needed to find a girlfriend, the actor immediately offered his real other half for this role. Soon, daughter Zhenya joined the parents in the frame.
Rich heiress
Alexander did not often find himself in the field of view of the press, so his unexpected divorce from Yanina Sokolovskaya passed unnoticed. The couple broke up in 2015, and Ustyugov moved to live in St. Petersburg. Almost immediately, information appeared that the cause of the collapse of the actor's first marriage was a new love.
According to rumors, Alexander met his future second wife on the set of the historical film "Viking", where he had one of the main roles. Anna Ozar turned out to be the mysterious darling of the movie star. The girl graduated from the directing department of VGIK, but so far she could not boast of notable projects in film or on television. Much more Anna was known as the daughter of Igor Ozar, the head of the Sukhoi company.
She was born in 1987. She studied in Moscow and Great Britain, graduated from the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University. She worked for Izvestia, The Moscow News and the Rossiya TV channel. Anna's daughter Kira is growing up, but she does not advertise the name of the child's father.
The wedding of Ustyugov and Ozar took place in September 2015. The lovers did not arrange magnificent celebrations, but preferred to sign at the registry office without unnecessary witnesses. The newlyweds reported about the joyful event via Instagram. In their accounts, they posted pictures of hands with wedding rings without any comments. Anna and Alexander spent their honeymoon traveling around Europe.
Before the fans had time to rejoice for their favorite actor, at the end of 2016, the couple removed joint photos from their personal pages on social networks. Anna, who after marriage became Ustyugova, regained her maiden name and removed Alexander from the list of friends. The actor, in turn, indicated "free" in the column "marital status", and in fresh photographs he began to appear already without a wedding ring. Without further ado, it became clear that the life paths of the spouses went their separate ways.
New life
The actor does not comment on his marriages and divorces in interviews. For some time there were rumors about his reunion with his first family, but Alexander denied them. With Yanina Sokolovskaya, they maintained normal relations, continue to act together in the "Cop Wars" and raise a common daughter. According to the girl's mother, Zhenya is growing up like her father, is engaged in dances, vocals, plays on the stage of the RAMT.
In addition to his acting career, Ustyugov is seriously interested in music. He has his own group, Ekibastuz, named after Alexander's hometown. In 2017, he came with his musical group to the rock festival "Invasion". Then the journalists managed to find out that Ustyugov's heart was busy again. He meets with Maria Prokhorova, who works as the director of the Ekibastuz group. True, the actor and singer are in no hurry to advertise their new relationship.
Ustyugov met his new darling in the St. Petersburg bar "Barslon", where Maria worked at that time. She and Alexander are the same age, but Prokhorova is no stranger to an easy and casual approach to life. She wears original haircuts, dyes her hair a bright color and ironically calls herself a Frog. Friends characterize Prokhorova as a positive, sociable, energetic person. With such a companion, in their opinion, Alexander will never be bored.
Almost two years have passed since the "Invasion" festival, where the actor gave a reason to talk about his new novel. What is happening now in Ustyugov's personal life is unknown to journalists. Regarding the third marriage, he tries not to guess, entrusting his future fate in the hands of higher powers, which, perhaps, will still send him a real and bright feeling.
