Alexander's father left the family when his son was very young, but a little later, Gordon's mother met a new chosen one, who became his second dad. Alexander has seen difficulties since childhood. His mother had three jobs and worked constantly to provide for the families. And little Sasha at this time played with his grandmother, who instilled in him a love of creativity. When Gordon was five years old, he organized his own puppet theater. Almost every evening he put on interesting performances for the residents of his yard.

Personal life
Alexander Gordon had four marriages, three of which are currently broken. The first wife of the TV presenter was Maria Verdnikova, with whom he lived for eight years. From this marriage, their daughter Anna was born. However, Alexander, being a freedom-loving person, subsequently left his wife and lived with Nana Kiknadze for 7 years. This love affair did not end with marriage, but ended with the next departure of Gordon to another woman - Katya Prokofieva, who, after marriage, took the name of Alexander. In 2006, this marriage suffered a divorce, because Alexander found a new girlfriend - Nina Schipilova, who at that time was only 18 years old. The couple got married, but it only lasted three years. Due to the huge age difference, Nina and Alexander very often did not find a common language. After that, Gordon's romance with journalist Elena Pashkova began. They even had a daughter, Alexandra.
