Elena Korikova was born on April 12, 1972. The actress's hometown is Tobolsk. Elena's father - Yuri Alexandrovich Korikov, mother - Tatyana Korikova. After the birth of their daughter, the couple filed for divorce.
Until the age of 9, Elena lived in the village with her maternal grandparents (while Tatiana was touring the country). A little later, they moved with their mother to Rostov-on-Don.
Elena Korikova's father stayed to live in the Tyumen region and started a new family with two children. He met his first daughter when she was already an adult girl. Therefore, it was difficult for him to find a common language with her.
Back in her school years, Korikova studied at the Epos theater studio. Then, having successfully passed the exams, she entered VGIK.
The creative path of Elena Korikova
In her first year, the aspiring actress was offered the first role of Masha in the fairy tale "Ha-bi-ass". Later she played a young girl Irina from the provinces in the movie "I promised, I will leave", took part in many other films.
For the role of Lisa in the film "The Young Lady-Peasant" in 1995, Elena received the Nika Prize. In 1995, the girl successfully graduated from VGIK and continued her acting career. In addition to filming films, Elena took part in the clips of Pugacheva, Agutin, Kirkorov and other Russian pop stars.
In 1998 Elena Korikova moved with her family to the USA, where she tried herself as a model. A few years later, she returned to her homeland and continued her acting career, playing in "Three Comrades", "Demons", "Three Sisters".
However, true fame came to the actress along with her role in the film "Poor Nastya". It was from that time that Korikova began to frequently appear in the most fashionable and popular magazines, and in 2005 she was recognized as one of the sexiest women in the world. Later, Elena took part in some television projects ("Two Stars", "Circus with Stars"), which were broadcast on Channel One, became the host of the "Fort Boyard" program.
Personal life of Korikova
In the life of the beautiful Elena, there were many famous men. She met her first love back in her university years. It was Mikhail Roshchin, who later devoted his life to serving God. From him, Elena had a son, Arseny, whom she had to raise alone.
Then the actress met the writer Dmitry Lipskerov, whom she later married. However, their marriage was short-lived. A year later, the couple filed for divorce. The man said that he was very happy in marriage and really wanted to become a real father for little Arseny. However, the actress's mother often interfered in her and Elena's personal life, which became the main reason for the breakdown of marital relations.
The next chosen one of Korikova was the director Maxim Osadchiy. Thanks to him, Elena got the opportunity to appear in the clips of many celebrities. Their relationship lasted 11 years. During this time, due to the difficult characters of both spouses, they quarreled more than once, right up to leaving home.
Finally, the couple broke up immediately after the filming of "Poor Nastya" was completed. One of the reasons for their breakup was rumors around Elena Korikova's relationship with her film colleague Daniil Strakhov.
The romance between them spun in the process of filming "Poor Nastya", but it never grew into something more. In addition, Daniel was married and made his choice in favor of the family.
Later, Andrei Malakhov became the chosen one of Elena. The TV presenter very carefully and reverently looked after the actress, but Korikova soon left him, citing his constant employment.
In 2006, the general director of the "Armand" organization Igor Herts became the actress's new love. He gave the actress generous gifts (house, car). However, this relationship did not last long either.
Marat Safin is another fan of Elena Korikova. The famous tennis player even made an offer to Elena, but his family turned out to be categorically against relations with a woman who is older in age, moreover, she already has an adult child.
Playing in the next performance, Elena met another love in the person of Sergei Astakhov. The woman admits that she finally fell in love with him. Sergei at that time was married and had a child, so many condemned such a relationship of the actress, saying that she destroyed the family. As a result, this novel turned out to be a collapse. The actor returned to the family.
Thus, Korikova had many admirers, but she tied the knot only once.
