Natalya Varley became an all-Union darling at the age of 19. The role of Nina in "Prisoner of the Caucasus" made her "an athlete, a member of the Komsomol and just a beauty" for all time.
First marriage
Natalya Varley got into the cinema by accident. She worked as a trapeze artist in a circus. Leonid Gaidai first saw Varley under the very dome and immediately realized that she was exactly the heroine who was needed for the main role in the comedy "Prisoner of the Caucasus". And the master of Soviet comedies was not mistaken. As a non-professional actress, Natalya played the role so brilliantly that after the premiere of the film she woke up famous.
Varley liked men. So, among her suitors was Leonid Filatov himself. However, Natalia chose the shy Nikolai Burlyaev. They got married in 1967. The marriage lasted only a year.
Second marriage and birth of first son
Three years after the divorce, Varley married Vladimir Tikhonov, the son of Vyacheslav Tikhonov and Nonna Mordyukova. The guy studied on the same course with Natalia. For his bright appearance, he was often called Alain Delon of the Soviet spill. The star couple did little to raise their son, disappearing on tour. Vladimir was raised mainly by his grandparents.
After the divorce of the stellar parents, the guy closed in on himself. As a result, a lonely boy at the bottom of his heart fell into a bad company, where he became addicted to drugs and alcohol.
Vladimir was deeply in love with Varley. Natalia learned about his drug problems on her wedding day. The news stunned her, but did not stop her. Varley became the wife of Tikhonov. Then she thought that with her help he would break out of the swamp. Immediately after the wedding, Varley took her husband to the narcologists. She also in every possible way prevented him from communicating with "bad" friends. However, Natalia's efforts were unsuccessful. The marriage lasted only three months. While on dose, Vladimir made scandals and pogroms in the apartment. Varley filed for divorce, knowing that she was already pregnant.
On May 21, 1972, Varley gave birth to a son and named him Vasily. Tikhonov, after parting, hated Natalia and called her exclusively "Varleikha". He did not recognize his son as his own. Tikhonov believed that he was not the father, but Konstantin Raikin. Varley met with him before Tikhonov. By the way, Vasily has certain similarities with Raikin.
Natalia did not grieve about this and gave her son her last name. Varley also did not communicate with her ex-mother-in-law for a long time. They talked heart to heart and forgave each other old grievances only 18 years later, after the sudden death of Vladimir.
After school, Vasily continued his studies at the Institute of Contemporary Arts. He also tried himself in the cinema, starring with Natalia in the film "Adolescent Age". However, he did not want to continue his film career.
Vasily worked for a short time as a trolleybus driver. After the accident I decided to leave this profession. Currently works as a laboratory assistant. Vasily is a closed person by nature and does not tolerate publicity.
Vasily was married. In marriage, a son, Eugene, was born, whom Natalya simply adores. He helped the star grandmother master modern gadgets, and she instilled in him a love of high poetry. After the divorce, Vasily's son lives with his mother in Italy.
The birth of the second son
On September 13, 1985, Varley gave birth to another son, Alexander. The boy was born out of wedlock. The actress did not advertise her father's name. The second son also bears the surname Varley.
Alexander graduated from the directing department. He has directed several films, including "Taking Inside" and "A Dream to Come". Alexander also managed to work as an assistant with Nikita Mikhalkov himself.
The youngest son Varley is also passionate about music. He plays in the band The BeatLove, which is famous for performing covers of the songs of the Beatles.
