The actor of the movie “Yolki” lost his mother eight years ago. She was just two days away from her 64th birthday. And on February 7, she would have turned 72. On Valeria Kiseleva’s birthday, her son talked about what she was like. Urgant showed her a black and white photo and asked fans to compare their faces.

“But I, a fool, was sure that I was more like my dad … – Ivan admitted. — My mother was an actress. She loved her profession, theater, colleagues completely selflessly. She called, congratulated, helped, consoled and nursed everyone For example, she didn’t have pierced ears.

The host of the Evening Urgant program assured that his mother never scolded. He did not hear a single obscene, but generally bad word from her. The artist also noted that soon after the death of his mother, he found out about his wife’s pregnancy.

“When we came back from the funeral eight years ago, we found out that Natasha was expecting a child,” Urgant said. – So another Valeria Ivanovna appeared. Who pierced her ears three days ago and occasionally shouted “Ass!” and she starts laughing terribly… But I still see her mother in her.

Ivan’s personal confessions touched many stars of show business. Elizaveta Boyarskaya, Ekaterina Varnava, Marina Zudina, Aglaya Tarasova and other artists left their hearts in the comments.

Valeria Kiseleva studied with Ivan’s father on the same course at the Leningrad State Institute of Theater, Music and Cinematography. Andrei Urgant was five years younger than the chosen one. They lived in a civil marriage. In 1978, the actors had a son, Ivan, and after a year and a half they broke up.

Ivan Urgant has been happily married to Natalia Kiknadze for 15 years. They are raising two daughters. Seven-year-old Valeria is very similar to the showman’s father and mother. And 14-year-old Nina was named in honor of her grandmother, the actress of the film “Belarusian Station” Nina Urgant. The Soviet film star died in December 2021, she was 92 years old.
