Igor Gordin most spent his life on stage and was able to earn the love and respect of many viewers. But him actor career at this stage, it has receded a little into the background, because in the biography of Igor Gordin it contains interesting information about his personal life and everyone is interested in his relationship with his first wife.
Igor Gordin: from the very beginning of a love relationship
They say that everyone is creative and famous people they simply cannot be monogamous, but Igor Gordin honorably refutes this theory - in his biography there is only one woman with whom his personal life began and this is his first wife.
It all started back in 1995, when a young, but already quite well-known girl, Yulia Menshova, decided to hold a cultural evening and go to the Youth Theater for the play "The Execution of the Decembrists", where attractive Igor Gordin played one of the roles.
The girl was impressed by the game of young talent and could not take her eyes off the beautiful face - at first glance, everything was perfect in this man.
But this outburst of emotions was fleeting and it seemed that these two were simply not destined to meet. But fate thought otherwise.
After the performance, Yulia ended up in a restaurant where she was invited by a group of friends. Igor was also there, who managed to impress the girl on stage so much. Even then, after the first communication, the first romantic feelings arose among young people and their relationship began to develop with incredible strength.
Memoirs of Yulia Menshova about a fateful meeting
When the relationship of the couple developed, and they began to appear together in public, journalists simply bombarded Yulia with personal questions. And she almost never refused to talk about it.
The daughter of famous parents admitted that 1994 was a rather difficult year for her, as she said goodbye to the theater and began to look for herself in a new path - journalism. And even though she had dreamed about this since childhood, the path to success was not close.
After such a personal crisis, after some time, a friend's girlfriend was invited to the theater, and Yulia went, promising herself in advance that she would run away as soon as the opportunity arose. But this plan never came to fruition.
Igor Gordin played on the stage, with whom the successful actress and journalist learned to play billiards in a few hours, felt his hand on her waist and listened to the voice, from which the heart trembled more and more. She understood that she wanted to be with this person forever.
Igor Gordin also immediately realized that his future life, personal happiness and biography pages will not do without Yulia Menshova, so, without delay, he offered her a joint residence. The girl in love agreed without hesitation.
How parents reacted to the union of two loving hearts
Already two months after meeting Igor, an important event was coming - to appear before the eminent parents of his chosen one. This meeting meant a lot to him, since the fear of not being liked by future relatives did not leave the young man.
The Menshov family, although it has a certain status in the world of theater and art, is not particularly wealthy and it is very difficult to call them snobs. Vladimir Valentinovich and Vera Valentinovna simply wanted happiness for their daughter and did not expect her to bring a “bag of money” into the house.
They met Igor very warmly, although they were very worried and worried that they could inadvertently harm Yulia's relationship. But the first meeting was excellent and everyone was satisfied with the first impression.
It is worth noting that Igor Gordin did not try to embellish his biography and told everything as if in spirit to the parents of his future first wife - both about his personal life and about relatives who came from an ordinary St. Petersburg family. He did not hide the fact that he initially received a technical education and only then decided to become an actor. Yulia's parents accepted all this information calmly and did not express their dissatisfaction.
Igor was not even afraid to admit at the first meeting that he lives in an ordinary hostel and does not have his own housing. It is not known what kind of reaction he expected, but certainly not what happened next - the Menshovs were indescribably delighted. After all, their relationship once upon a time also began in an ordinary student hostel and they managed to go through all the difficulties. So why can't their daughter cope?
Igor's parents found out about the novel of their son a little later and at first did not know how to relate to this. They could not believe that their calm and modest boy was able to achieve the sympathy of an already established actress, presenter, and also an aspiring journalist.
It seemed to them that this novel could not be serious, but when Gordin proposed to his chosen one, the parents accepted the girl into the family and gave their blessing for the wedding.
The solemn event took place two years after the first meeting, and the lovers could not get enough of the fact that they could finally call each other husband and wife.
After that, two main events in their life followed - in 1997, son Andrei was born, and in 2003, daughter Taya was born.
Igor Gordin is very proud that in his biography there was a place for such long-awaited new lives - personal life without children would not be the same at all (you can see general photos below).
First trouble
No matter how wonderful the past was, in the future we often expect new problems and difficulties in relationships. Unfortunately, Igor and Yulia were no exception to this hackneyed scheme, and a difficult period began in their family.
Everyday life, difficult acting schedules, raising children and time played a cruel joke on them - absolutely everyone spoke about scandals in the family of Igor Gordin, and journalists added fuel to the fire, informing the public that personal life with the first wife of a talented actor was covered with a copper basin and it was time him to start writing a new biography.
In the end, all the rumors were confirmed - in 2004, the lovers quarreled so much that they could no longer be under the same roof.
What caused the stellar break
The real reason for the breakup of the family is still unknown. But there are two versions that were not confirmed by any source, but at the same time could turn out to be pure truth:
- Many fans and Igor's colleagues at work believe that the ambitious actor could not come to terms with the success of his wife and did not want to remain in her shadow all his life. He himself wanted to shine and did not want to give up his place under the sun even to his own wife.
- Another reason is Gordin's possible romance with Inga Oboldina, who played with a man on the same stage. This theory gained even more adherents after Inga left her husband shortly after the family of Yulia and Igor ceased to exist.
Igor Gordin, like his first wife, will only repeat one thing about his personal life during this period of his biography: both have accumulated so many grievances that they could no longer be silent. Every evening began with mutual reproaches, constant fatigue and the understanding that something was going wrong.
And although Julia recently gave birth to a daughter, the couple made the most difficult decision in their lives - to file for divorce. But at the same time, none of them began to object to this idea.
The divorce process took place quietly and without prying eyes - despite the problems in the family, the former lovers treated each other with respect and did not fight because of the acquired property.
The machinations of fate and another wedding
Igor Gordin experienced a difficult breakup and rather wanted to turn these pages of his biography, but, despite the collapse in his personal life, he never forgot about his children.
They continued to see Julia and tried not to remember past grievances. Former lovers even starred together in a multi-part project called "The Crime Will Be Revealed."
There they tried on the role of divorced spouses, who were eventually able to revive their feelings and become a happy family again. Soon this plot for the main characters of the film became prophetic.
Igor Gordin realized that he was falling in love with his first wife again and wanted to devote his entire personal life only to her, raise children together and write new stories into a common biography.
The feelings turned out to be mutual and three years after the official divorce, in 2008 the newly-made couple played another wedding.
That day they were as happy as when they first met, then, in the billiard room. They shared their joy with their loved ones and friends, who could not believe in such a twist of fate.
And, it seems, this time, the marriage is truly happy. After all, how many years have passed, and the lovers are still together and are not going to part ever again.
The famous actor Igor Gordin devoted himself entirely to his career for the sake of a woman, but as often happens in such cases, he destroyed relations with this very woman. Fortunately, the actor, proving that he, too, did not miss, changed his mind in time.
The future actor was born in a simple family, his parents were engineers and dreamed that their son would continue their business. But Igor dreamed of something completely different.
When Gordin first appeared on the school stage, he realized that his destiny was to become an actor. But the boy was afraid to disappoint his parents and until the last he kept his dream a secret from them.

When Igor finished school, he did not dare to resist his parents and began to study as a nuclear physicist. It did not last long, the guy soon realized that he could not go against his nature and ventured to try to enter the theater. But he was so worried that he forgot the necessary documents at home and simply was not allowed to take the exam.

Gordin was very disappointed in himself, received an uninteresting education, but nevertheless pulled himself together and decided to try again. This time everything went well and Gordin was taken. The inspired student was immediately noticed and began to offer roles in performances.

Igor got used to the characters so much that he always got a standing ovation in his address, this contributed to the fact that filmmakers noticed him. Gordin made his debut very successfully, he looked worthy against the background of Porechenkov and Panin. Then he was taken to the "Children of the Arbat", where he gave all the best.

New proposals rained down on the actor, among his works are such projects as "Saboteur", Dubrovsky "and many others. Gordin quickly became famous throughout the country. The actor to this day tries to give out not even 100, but all 200% in each of his roles and it does not go unnoticed by critics or viewers.
As it turned out, such a desire for the issuance of the maximum result did not arise out of the blue. The reason was a woman.
Gordin met his love after another successful performance. Yulia Menshova fell in love with him at first sight, after which she organized their chance meeting with mutual friends. They started talking and soon began dating. After two years of relationship, they got married.

The marriage gave the spouses two children, and for the time being everything was fine, until Menshova's career took off. Julia was actively filming and was at her peak, while Gordin was marking time. It was then that he turned on to the fullest and began to literally live at work.

But Julia did not appreciate this. She was famous, and although Igor tried to reach out to her, things were not going as fast as he wanted. As a result, scandals began, Yulia wanted her husband to spend more time with the children, and Gordin longed to get out of his wife's shadow and prove to her that he was not a bastard. This confrontation led to the fact that they dispersed.

Igor was madly worried about the breakup, but he was afraid that another scandal would lead to a divorce, which he wanted least of all. He continued to see the children, but he limited communication with Yulia and concentrated on work. And the result was not long in coming. Gordin's career began to gain momentum.
It was then that Menshova had a rival in the person of Inga Oboldina. The handsome Gordin immediately took notice of Inga and she went with him to get closer. Igor was so tired of constant stress that he took the attention and love of the actress. Everything resulted in the fact that they even came together.
The former lover of the husband of the TV presenter still regrets that she did not become his wife
Yulia MENSHOVA, who will celebrate her 45th birthday the other day, now has another round of popularity. For the past nine months, she has been hosting the program “Alone with Everyone” on Channel One, talking frankly with celebrities. Prior to that, Julia stirred the soul of the audience when she starred in the TV series “Balzac Age, or All Men Are Their Own ...” - Russian counterpart"Sex in big city". And even earlier, in the mid-90s, the daughter of Vera Alentova and Vladimir MENSHOV gained fame as the helmsman of the talk show “I myself!”. Even then, scandals rumbled around her name.
Few people know that the well-known screenwriter and director Viktor Merezhko became the godfather of Menshova on television. It was he who brought Julia to the once popular, and now long-defunct TV-6 channel. But now, when I asked Viktor Ivanovich to remember this, he became gloomy:
- I haven’t communicated with Yulia for 15 years and I don’t want to know anything about her. I used to be friends with her mother, Vera Alentova, and one day she called me. “Help,” she says, “the daughter left the Moscow Art Theater (like her parents, Menshova graduated from the School-Studio at the theater, and after four years she worked in it. - G.U.). Sitting without work, without money, arrange it somewhere. I was just launching the My Cinema program on TV-6 and, out of respect for my parents, invited Menshova as an administrator. Then the general producer Ivan Demidov called her the host. Somewhat later, she became Demidov's deputy and once began to scold me for one of the episodes of the My Cinema program. I was shocked by such tactlessness and arrogance. Why this lady has changed so much, I don't know. This is for mom and dad!
drunken night
Some people think that it is Yulia's parents who owe her admission to an acting university and a red diploma upon graduation. Menshova herself emphasized more than once that she went on tours on a general basis, when the star dad and mom went on vacation.
- In addition to Menshova, other children of famous parents studied at our course - Alexander Lazarev Jr., Alexander Strizhenov, Anton Korolkov, the son of Gennady Korolkov, - says Yulia's classmate - Ruslan Sadkovsky. - I would not like to talk about them. Neither good nor bad. But do not think anything: each person manifests himself, works. In our profession, a high-profile surname can not always help.
One of the most cheerful and talented fellow students was the provincial Andrey Panin. When last year I was preparing material for his memory, actress Vera Voronkova, another graduate of the Studio School, admitted with tears in her eyes:
- All our youth is connected with Andrey. For some time I lived in a rented apartment near the Babushkinskaya metro station. Who didn't stop there! Even Muscovite Yulia Menshova, when she quarreled with her parents. By the way, it is to her and her family that we owe the fact that many course performances and funny student skits remained on videotape. Returning to the apartment, I note that due to the large influx of people, the neighbors constantly sharpened their teeth on me. When we were studying, we drank only tea.
And when they passed the first session, they came all the way to celebrate me. And they got so drunk that some of them stayed the night. For some reason, I decided to wash things, soaked them in the bath, turned on the water, lay down and ... fell asleep. When the police arrived, we were sound asleep. From a crazy knock on the door, I open my eyes, and the TV floats on me! Neighbors have already managed to tell law enforcement officers that there is a "brothel". It almost came to the expulsion, because we flooded two floors down.
During her student years, Menshova first knew love. Once she admitted that the first kiss in her life happened after she was enrolled in the Studio School.
The fact is that her parents raised Yulia in strictness, dressed modestly, although they constantly traveled abroad and could bring fashionable things. What can we say about heels - Vera Valentinovna and Vladimir Valentinovich categorically forbade this "manifestation of debauchery" even in high school.
While studying at the Moscow Art Theater, many guys tried to look after Yulia. One of them, named Alexander, the daughter of the Oscar-winning director of the film "Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears", nevertheless reciprocated.
“Sashka courted beautifully,” classmates recall. - But when it became clear that it was going to the wedding, for some reason everything was quickly upset. Someone thought that Yulia's dad and mom "tried", dreaming of a more profitable party for the only blood. Others said that Menshova herself gave the guy a turn from the gate, suddenly realizing that he was dating her because of a big name in the hope of making a successful career. As a result, she got married only at the age of 28, already when she became the star of the TV-6 channel.
Ideal husband
With the actor of the Moscow Youth Theater Gordin, her future husband, Julia accidentally met in a restaurant where she went to have dinner with friends. Silent, but at the same time incredibly witty Igor came to the company.
- He sits to himself and is silent all the time, and then when he suddenly says something - and everyone is dying with laughter, - the TV presenter told about the chosen one.
But most importantly, Gordin bribed her by not looking at her as a popular person. He simply loved, sought: he invited me on dates, gave flowers, escorted him home ...
I must say that Igor had some experience in this area. They said that before Menshova he courted Elena Mayorova. And even earlier, when he did not move from his native St. Petersburg to Moscow, he followed the actress Galina Bokashevskaya.
Yes, Gordin and I really had an affair, - Bokashevskaya did not hide the awl in the bag. - We have been together for five years. By the time we met, I had already been married, lived with my little son, and suddenly Igor appeared on my way. As they say, we were "married" by the stage - they played in one St. Petersburg theater studio. I regretted for a long time that we never got to the registry office. Igor is a very good actor, and the person is just perfect, consisting of pluses, I don’t even remember the minuses. The dream of any woman is to have such a husband and a caring father. We parted on my initiative. When Igor left to study in Moscow, time parted us. And a couple of years later he started dating Julia. She is very lucky!
19-09-2019, 05:00 \\The daughter's shed tears could cross Igor Gordin out of the list of relatives.
The unexpected separation of her daughter from her husband more than 10 years ago undermined Vladimir Menshov's trust in Yulia in relation to her son-in-law. This became known after the release of the transfer of Boris Korchevnikov. The director did not seem to notice Igor Gordin and tried not to comment on his words. Apparently, leaving for the famous artist Inga Oboldina, being married to her daughter, caused contempt and distrust of her father. The viewers’ suspicions about the strained relationship of the main men in her life were confirmed by the TV presenter herself: “We practically don’t get together so that dad goes fishing with Igor - this doesn’t happen.” They do not communicate heart to heart, do not go fishing and do not smoke together, since Vladimir does not smoke. Everything connected with the son-in-law is alien to him.
The illusion of a friendly and close family collapsed in an instant. The famous Menshov family turned out to be far from ideal. Alentova and Menshov adore their daughter, as any parents dream of their child being happy. The mother of the artist, as a wise woman, closed her eyes to the past, but a loving father considered her son-in-law's betrayal a great betrayal. Ironically, the daughter repeated the mistake of her parents, when she was 3 years old, they also diverged for years.
According to Rambler, being legally married to Menshova, Igor began to live in a civil relationship with Inga. The novel was so vivid that the artist left her husband and was ready to legalize relations with Gordin. But he changed his mind in time and returned with his ex-wife. It is worth emphasizing the wisdom of Julia. She was able to forgive her husband's betrayal and start living from scratch.
