Biography of the actress
Maria Gorban was born on December 26, 1986 in Yaroslavl and was brought up in the family of theater artists Alexander Gorban and Larisa Zibrova. It is not surprising that from childhood she simply lived on the stage and dreamed of following in the footsteps of her parents. After graduating from school, Maria continued her studies at GITIS and immediately established herself from a very positive side. Moreover, by that time she already had the experience of filming in the TV project "Yeralash" and the series "Simple Truths". The aspiring actress really liked the comedy genre, but the teachers insisted on getting enough dramatic experience.
Since 2003, an attractive aspiring actress began to be invited to shoot in video clips of pop performers. She also starred in the television series "Women's Logic", the films "Smile of God" and "Practical Joke". With each project, Maria's popularity became higher and higher. In the late 2000s, she performed significant roles in the TV series "Aerobatics" and "Doctor Tyrsa", and in 2012 she appeared in the multi-part film "Kitchen", playing the wife of Dmitry Nagiyev. The couple looked so good on screen that they starred in several TV commercials outside of the series.
After the end of the series "Kitchen", its spin-off entitled "Hotel Eleon" was released, the cast of which was again decorated by Maria Gorban. She also played in two more popular multi-part projects of the STS channel: “Londongrad. Know ours! " and How I Became Russian. Currently, the actress is acting in a big movie. She can be seen in such comedy films as "8 Best Dates", "Women against Men - 2" and "The Grandmother of Easy Acts - 2". This is how Maria's long-standing dream of an acting career in the comedy genre came true.
Personal life
For a long time, one of the most attractive actresses of Russian cinema remained in splendid isolation. According to Maria Gorban, all her life she was under the great influence of her father, in whom she simply doted. It was with him that the actress compared each of her boyfriends, eventually becoming disappointed and refusing to start a relationship. However, Maria always had plenty of friends thanks to her sociability. There was no end to the fans, especially after several erotic photo shoots for glossy magazines.
Gorban's long-standing passion for football helped him find the long-awaited happiness in his personal life. She was especially zealous for the Lokomotiv club, trying not to miss a single match and communicating for a long time both with the fans and the players themselves. One of the players managed to really melt the heart of the actress. It was an athlete of Slovak origin, Jan Dyuritsa. The lovers lived for several years in a civil marriage, but the matter still did not come to the wedding: the busy schedule of the football player, frequent and long trips abroad affected. As a result, the couple broke up in 2011.
This time Gorban did not remain alone for long. As a new chosen one, she preferred a simple man named Oleg Filatov, who worked as an illuminator at one of the Moscow filming studios. The young man managed to charm the actress with his sense of humor and ability to beautifully look after a woman. A successful relationship was struck up, which led to the wedding. The lovers hid this event from the public and invited only the closest to it.
In 2014, Maria Gorban and Oleg Filatov had a daughter, Stephanie. However, this joyful moment coincided with the beginning of a political conflict between the two fraternal countries. The actress's husband, who has Ukrainian citizenship, often went to work in his native country and personally observed the popular unrest taking place in it. As a result, the man decided to stay in Ukraine and support his loved ones. Maria did not follow him and the marriage fell apart.
