Anton Zatsepin is a popular Russian singer, author of his own songs. He was always distinguished by his loving nature and was popular with girls. Anton tried to start a family with journalist Ekaterina Shmyrina, but the marriage could not be saved.
Anton Zatsepin and his path to success
Anton Zatsepin was born on May 20, 1982 in the city of Segezha (Republic of Karelia). A few years later, his family moved to a small town located in the Leningrad Region. Anton's mom worked as a choreographer, and grandfather played in a folk ensemble. Zatsepin's love for creative self-expression manifested itself in his school years. He danced well, moving as well as professional dancers. Parents were upset that their son did not do well at school, but at some point they came to terms with it. Anton spent all his free time in local houses of culture. In the 9th grade, he got a job as an assistant director for choreography and independently came up with a dance program for the local group "Slavyanochka".
When Anton turned 18, a tragedy occurred in his life. The boy's father died at work. Zatsepin could not come to his senses for a long time and even broke up with his girlfriend, who could not support him in difficult times. When the mental pain subsided, Zatsepin began to try himself from completely different directions. He played in KVN, wrote poetry, songs and even opened his own ballroom dancing school.
In 2004, at the insistence of his mother, Anton took part in the "Star Factory" project. The talented performer immediately won the sympathy of the mentors and members of the jury, he had many fans. The songs "Only Gubin is shorter in height", "Shiroka river" are his first hits. He performed the composition "Wide River" as a duet with Nadezhda Kadysheva.
For several years Anton was at the peak of popularity, and then decided to refuse to cooperate with the producer. Zatsepin wanted to be more free, to perform only those songs that he liked. He worked a lot on creating his own musical material, tried himself as a hip-hop artist and even entered GITIS, which he successfully graduated from.
In the wake of his career success, the performer's personal life was very stormy. The fans did not give a pass. He met with the most beautiful girls and spontaneously married Vj Lyuba Khvorostinina. The marriage with her did not last even 2 months. Anton admits that he feels guilty before Anyone. He shouldn't have proposed to her without serious feelings.
Anton's wife Ekaterina
Anton always wanted to have a family and he stubbornly pursued this goal. In the company of mutual friends, Zatsepin got to know Ekaterina Shmyrina better. The girl impressed him with her beauty and bright personality. Ekaterina is a professional journalist and promoter. Previously, their paths have already crossed, but the relationship was strictly business.
Ekaterina Shmyrina is a smart and self-sufficient girl. Anton was bribed by the fact that they had a large number of common interests. Katya is a creative and enthusiastic person. She was different from the fans with whom Zatsepin had to meet. Catherine did not try to please him, behaved confidently and freely.
The affair with Catherine developed rapidly. But Anton did not immediately make an offer. Young people met for several years. Zatsepin did not want to repeat the previous mistake and considered that it took time to look at each other. The decision to marry was made immediately after the news of Katya's pregnancy.
The wedding was fun and memorable. The newlyweds Zatsepin invited a large number of friends to the celebration. Ekaterina communicated very well with the hosts and participants of the Dom-2 television project, so many of them were invited to the wedding. She herself was a participant, but quickly left the perimeter where the shooting was taking place.
Katya is a rather modest, family-like person. She does not like noisy events and in Anton she was attracted by personal qualities, not success and recognition. Zatsepin changed after marriage. He tried to spend more time with his pregnant wife, he was looking forward to the birth of his daughter. For some time, the artist took a break from creative activity. But despite the seriousness of marriage on both sides, the relationship began to deteriorate.
In 2009, Catherine gave birth to a daughter, Alexandra-Marta. The parents could not agree, so they chose such an unusual name for the child. Each of the spouses insisted on their own version and they could not find another way to find a compromise.
After the birth of a daughter, conflicts often broke out in the family. Katya was sitting at home and it was difficult for her to adapt to new living conditions. Despite the fact that she never liked noisy parties, the young mother was not ready for complete isolation. Anton began his creative upsurge. He began to devote more time to work. Zatsepin flirted with beautiful girls who starred in his videos and performed with him on the same stage. The information reached the young wife and caused her a lot of negative emotions. Later, Anton regretted his behavior and admitted that he himself destroyed his marriage. Zatsepin often made claims to his wife, and she also did not want to concede. It all ended with Katya taking her daughter and going to live with relatives.
Relationships after divorce
Anton and Catherine parted peacefully. In an interview, Anton said that he and Katya do not communicate. They only meet when Zatsepin takes his daughter for the weekend. Katya does not try to interfere with these meetings, but she is not very willing to make contact. Anton does not know exactly what his ex-wife is doing now, whether there is a new man in her life.
They see their daughter often. Alexandra-Marta goes to a music school. She has abilities that her parents decided to develop. Anton believes that a girl needs to be able to sing and dance well and it is not at all necessary to subsequently choose a creative profession for herself.
In Anton's personal life, so far, everything remains unchanged. He is still alone, but he does not lose hope of meeting the one with whom he wants to live his whole life.
