Evgeny Tsyganov and Irina Leonova
Evgeny Tsyganov met his first common-law wife, actress Irina Leonova, in 2004, on the set of the series Children of the Arbat, based on the sensational novel by Anatoly Rybakov. Eugene played the main character of the picture - Sasha Pankratov, who became a victim of Stalinist repressions, Irina - his classmate Lena Budyagina.
At that time, Irina was married to another famous actor - Igor Petrenko. They met at the entrance exams to the Shchepkin Higher Theater School and got married immediately after graduation. In numerous interviews, Igor admitted that he fell in love with Irina at first sight.
The promising young actress was accepted into the troupe of the renowned Maly Theater. She played Sophia in Griboyedov's "Woe from Wit", Lydia Cheboksarova in "Mad Money" by A. N. Ostrovsky and other roles in performances of the classical repertoire. At that time, a great future was predicted for her. But the family life of a successful young couple did not work out. Information is still appearing in the press that the marriage of Leonova and Petrenko broke up due to the absence of children, however, most likely, the reason was different. Back in 2001, on the set of the Moscow Windows series, Igor Petrenko met a new love - actress Ekaterina Klimova.
Irina Leonova lived with Yevgeny Tsyganov for 11 years, they had six children. But the famous actor never found time to officially register the marriage. And then he left the family altogether, leaving Irina when she was expecting her seventh child. Irina turned out to be a very strong and persistent woman, she never gave an interview about the reasons for parting with a common-law spouse, did not complain of constant difficulties, found the strength to return to work in the theater. But the act of Evgeny Tsyganov still evokes condemnation even among the fans of the actor.
Once Irina and Eugene dreamed of a large family and wanted to live a long and happy life together. After parting, he found happiness with a new darling, and Irina has to raise seven children alone. Her successful film career was also interrupted. The last time she appeared on the screen was in 2014, in the role of the beautiful and unattainable aristocrat Vera Sheina in the first part of the Kuprin series.
Evgeny Tsyganov and Yulia Snigir
Model and actress Yulia Snigir became the new companion of Tsyganov's life. Before meeting Yevgeny, Yulia managed to play one of the main roles in Fyodor Bondarchuk's film "Inhabited Island", appear in the clip of the "Beasts" group "See you soon!", And also take part in an erotic photo session. The further career of the actress also developed successfully: she not only starred in many domestic films and television series, but managed to take part in the Russian-French film "Rasputin", as well as in two Hollywood projects.
Julia's personal life also turned out to be very eventful. She met her first husband, Alexei, while studying at the Faculty of Foreign Languages of the Moscow Pedagogical University, but this marriage was short-lived. Later, the spectacular girl met with the ex-husband of actress Elena Korikova - cameraman Maxim Osadch, who is 18 years older than her, and after breaking up with him - with one of the most popular actors of Russian theater and cinema, Danila Kozlovsky.
The meeting with Yevgeny Tsyganov, with whom they starred in the series "Where the Motherland Begins", turned out to be scandalous for Yulia, because because of her the actor left the mother of his seven children. In March 2016, the couple had a son, Fedor, who became Evgeny's eighth child.
Today, there are a variety of, often contradictory rumors about Yevgeny Tsyganov's personal life. In the press, there are reports that Tsyganov and Snigir are going to get married, then they talk about their separation. Eugene tirelessly emphasizes that he does not leave his children from a de facto marriage with Irina Leonova, but his help is mainly material.
Yulia Snigir is still successfully acting in films. Among the last most notable works of the actress is the role of the soft and feminine Katya Bulavina in the film adaptation of the novel by A. N. Tolstoy "Walking through the agony" and the cruel Saltychikha in the TV series "Bloody Lady".
