Bill and lived with a second family: the most unhappy marriage of Russian stars

Actress Maria Golubkina was married to showman and singer Nikolai Fomenko from 1995 to 2008. It was one of the brightest couples in the Russian show business of that time. The couple often appeared together in public, raised two children and seemed to be perfect for each other.

However, just 15 years after the divorce, the circumstances of the separation were known. Golubkina admitted that Fomenko was cheating on her, which she only found out afterwards.

“Kolya lived with a woman for two years before we divorced him. This was not the reason (divorce – approx. editor’s note) He didn’t tell me. All my friends knew, I didn’t. Do I hold a grudge against him? Definitely! I have not only an insult, but a wagon of claims, “said the actress.

The combination of a singer and a producer is not unusual in show business. The couple of Valeria and Shulgin from the side seemed incredibly romantic to fans. For her husband, the singer was a real muse, together they created and raised three children. It was with him that Valeria became one of the most popular singers in the country. She married him in 1993 and their marriage lasted about 10 years. And only after the divorce it became clear that these years were a real hell for Valeria and the children.

Shulgin turned out to be a monstrous domestic tyrant, which became evident when Valeria married him. Not only did he shout and insult family members, but he also raised his hand on his wife and devised cruel punishments for the children, such as locking his son in a doghouse and banishing his daughter to the cold. Valeria was so frightened that for many years she simply did not dare to leave him.

Baranovskaya was not officially married to a football player, but everyone perceived them as a real family, because they had three children. Relations with Arshavin made the girl a media personality, but for a long time she was in no hurry to make her own career and do housework. Julia and Andrey lived in perfect harmony until the football player became interested in Alisa Kazmina – Baranovskaya at that time was pregnant with her third child.

Julia, who was left alone, was forced to urgently look for work – the football player was in no hurry to support his former lover and children, and Baranovskaya had to discharge alimony in court. Thanks to this, she managed to build a career as a TV presenter, but disputes with Arshavin about money still continue.
