People's Artist of the Russian Federation Irina Ivanovna Alferova is a popular Soviet and Russian actress. Her name is currently associated with the acting dynasty, which her daughter Ksenia deservedly became the successor.
A native of Novosibirsk and a native of a family far from the world of culture and art, the wide cinematic community is known not only as a talented actress. The persona of Irina Alferova also attracts fans with her marriages, among which the most striking was the marriage with the famous Russian actor Alexander Abdulov. And the only native daughter of the People's Artist of the Russian Federation is Ksenia Alferova.
Short biography of Irina Alferova
On March 13, 1951, daughter Irina was born in the family of Ivan Kuzmich Alferov and Ksenia Alferova. The parents of the future popular lyceum were realized in the legal profession as lawyers, and therefore the future of their daughters (Irina also had a sister Tatiana) was seen exclusively in such a specialty. However, it was impossible not to notice the remarkable artistic abilities that simply burst out of the girl.
Therefore, after receiving a certificate of secondary education, Irina immediately went to conquer the metropolitan stage. Naturally, first it was necessary to graduate from a theater university, which was the legendary GITIS. At first, the girl was quite difficult to study. But after a certain period, she was able to get involved and even become one of the best students in the course.
1976 was a fateful year for Irina Alferova. She became a member of the Lenkom troupe. Here the aspiring actress received an invaluable experience of transformation. However, the real fame was brought to her by the role of Constance Bonacieux in the acclaimed film "D'Artagnan and the Three Musketeers" (1978). It was the character of Queen Anne's maid of honor that made her recognizable and attracted the attention of a wide audience to the actress. It is noteworthy that at the insistence of the director of the film, Georgy Yungvald-Khilkevich, Anastasia Vertinskaya became the voice of Constance. The famous director then considered that the artist's original voice did not have sufficient softness and femininity.
In the dashing "nineties" there was a serious decline, both in the activities of the entire domestic cinema, and in the professional activity of Alferova. This period of his creative career was marked only by filming in the film "Ermak" (1996) and a music video with Alexander Serov, who performed the song "You love me."
Personal life of the actress
Irina Alferova has long been considered the first beauty of Russian cinema. This status automatically implies a stormy romantic life. However, the actress was noted for sufficient stability in this area of life, despite three marriages.
The first time she married the Bulgarian diplomat Boyko Gyurov, with whom she even decided to leave Moscow. However, in the homeland of her husband, where she gave birth to her daughter Xenia, the young woman faced marital despotism. And the creative nature of the actress could no longer imagine herself without a theatrical stage and a film set. As a result, her return home was a foregone conclusion.
On the stage of Lenkom, Irina Alferova met her second husband, Alexander Abdulov. The favorite of all Soviet women could not help but pay attention to such a bright female beauty. Therefore, the reciprocity of romantic feelings became the reason for the formation of the most spectacular couple in the country. However, the male nature of the spouse did not want to give up the well-founded reputation of "red tape behind women's skirts." Love scandals have become commonplace in their relationship. And in 1993 this marriage "ordered to live a long time", faced with an insurmountable obstacle.
The third and last spouse of Irina Alferova to date is her colleague in the creative department, Sergei Martynov. The romantic relationship of this acting couple began during the filming of the film project "Sheriff's Star" (1991) directed by Nikolai Litus. In this story, the most notable is the fact that the actress at this point in time was, as they say, "Deeply Married."
Children of Irina Alferova
Today, actress Irina Alferova lives in a family in which its members are her current husband, his children from a previous marriage and nephew Alexander, who was placed under guardianship due to the death of Tatyana's sister in 1997. The popular artist speaks extremely positively about her husband, calling him “the man of her dreams,” next to whom she feels like a real woman.
Adopted son Sergei and daughter Anastasia, who were studying in London at the time of their mother's death, subsequently moved to Moscow. And the only natural daughter, Ksenia, has now been living for a long time with her family, in which her husband is the popular actor Yegor Beroev. The couple has a daughter, Evdokia, who goes to school. Thus, Xenia, Sergei, Anastasia and Alexander can be fully considered the children of Irina Alferova.
According to the People's Actress of the Russian Federation herself, she was very worried before the first meeting with the children of Sergei Martynov. However, the fears turned out to be unnecessary, since they made her very warmly. After returning home, Sergei and Nastya graduated from a Moscow secondary school. And currently Martynov Jr. is engaged in professional activities, living in England.
Ksenia Alferova
Irina Alferova's own daughter was born in her first marriage. However, Ksenia considers Alexander Abdulov to be the real father, from whom she took her patronymic, who became her second husband for her mother.
According to her daughter herself, she had to grow up very early, as her parents constantly disappeared on the set. Today she herself is a popular film actress, whose debut took place on the set of the film "The Woman in White" (1982).
