Zudina fell in love with Tabakov when she was very young. She was only 16 years old, and the teacher did not even know about her existence and was married to actress Lyudmila Krylova. In the family of artists, son Anton and daughter Alexandra grew up - the same age as Marina. Zudina could not even imagine that she would ever be able to conquer Tabakov. The girl had a goal: to enter GITIS and certainly to Oleg Pavlovich’s workshop. She was up to the task, and then everything worked out naturally - a romance began between the student and the teacher.

According to the actress, at some point they realized that they could no longer live without each other. Zudina was ready to sacrifice her career on the altar of love. “If at that moment Oleg Pavlovich had said: “You won’t play anything, but we will live with you,” I probably would have chosen “live,” Marina admitted. However, true love does not require self-sacrifice. The master did not give Zudina any ultimatum, and the girl appreciated it.

Love for all ages

The age difference for lovers has always been conditional. When the actor left Krylova, Zudina turned to her mother for advice. “Then I myself expressed doubts: they say, we are 30 years apart, to which my mother replied: “Yes, and you are also quite old.” Such was the exhaustive dialogue,” said the artist. According to her, parents really value and respect Oleg Pavlovich, so they didn’t have any questions. And what questions can there be when you see how a serious and self-realized man treats your only daughter?

Understand and forgive your father

When Tabakov left the family, his wife and children stopped communicating with him. Krylova could not forget the betrayal, her daughter took her side. However, the son eventually forgave the artist. “Mom and Sasha are not offended because this happened. They are offended by how it happened. After my parents’ divorce, I also did not communicate with my father. Looking at the situation from the outside, I realized that it looked like “to spite my mother, I’ll freeze my nose.” ". I quickly forget grievances, I try to think about good things. It’s easier for me to exist this way. And my mother... She lives with us. Her women’s happiness is children and grandchildren," Anton explained.

Idyll comes with time

Zudina admitted that at the beginning life together she and Tabakov quarreled almost every morning: “Everything I did caused dissatisfaction. Then they found a way out of the situation. He got up and did something himself, I woke up later, and we didn’t have time to quarrel.” Oleg Pavlovich's first priority was work, but his calling did not make him forget about the need to love and be a man. The actress emphasized that she was always present in her husband’s life, no matter what he did.

Hurry up to love

In one interview, Tabakov expressed concern about how long he would be able to see his children. The artist said that with the birth of his and Marina’s son, Pavel, he began to feel younger and more cheerful. Doctors also noted an improvement in their health. "Our vitality run out not because we are physically worn out. They dry up when we are no longer needed. And while this factor is in effect, our possibilities are practically limitless,” the master assured.

"I have two of the most happy day in life. The first was when I entered the course with Oleg Pavlovich. Apparently, this day determined my entire future fate. The second was Pavlik’s birthday, when after many hours of pain and horror relief came, and I saw the eyes of my beloved man, my husband,” Zudina emphasized. There is not a single reason to doubt that the artist was truly happy next to Marina.

Marina Zudina spoke about her relationship with Oleg Tabakov.

March 12 as a result heart attack actor and theater and film director Oleg Tabakov died. The most important inspiration in the life of the great artist has always been his faithful wife Marina Zudina.

Zudina was in love with Tabakov while she was still a very young student. At that time, she was only 16 years old, and the teacher himself did not even suspect Marina’s existence, being married to actress Lyudmila Krylova. The family of artists grew up with a son, Anton, and a daughter, Alexandra, the same age as Zudina. Then Marina could not even imagine that she would ever be able to win Tabakov’s heart. The girl had a clear goal: to enter GITIS and certainly to the workshop of Oleg Pavlovich. The young actress was able to complete the task, and then everything worked out naturally - a romance began between the student and the teacher. " All the students were in love with him - both boys and girls. It was adoration. I didn't think it would turn out this way. The relationship was honest, I had no intention of taking anyone away. Oleg Pavlovich did not promise anything", recalls Zudina.


The actress said that in certain moment she and Tabakov realized that they could no longer live without each other. For the sake of her beloved, Zudina was ready to sacrifice her career on the altar of love. “If at that moment Oleg Pavlovich said: “ You won’t play anything, but we will live with you,” I would probably choose “live“, admitted Marina. However real love does not require self-sacrifice. Tabakov did not give Zudina any ultimatum, and the girl appreciated this.

For lovers, the age difference has always been conditional. When the actor left Lyudmila Krylova, Marina Zudina turned to her mother for advice: “Then I myself expressed doubts: they say, we have a 30-year age difference. To which my mother replied: “ And you are also quite old.” This was such an exhaustive dialogue", the artist recalls. Zudina also said that her parents really value and respect Oleg Pavlovich, so they didn’t have any questions about the marriage. Moreover, what questions can there be when you see how a serious and self-realized man treats your only daughter?

When Tabakov left his family, his wife and children cut off communication with him. Krylova could not forget the betrayal, and her daughter took her mother’s side. Only son Anton was able to forgive his father over time. " Mom and Sasha are offended not because this happened. They are offended by how it happened. After my parents' divorce, I also did not communicate with my father. However, looking at the situation from the outside, I realized that it looked like “to spite my mother I’ll freeze my nose.” I quickly forget insults and try to think about good things. It's easier for me to exist this way. And mom... She lives with us. Her feminine happiness is children and grandchildren"Anton shared his revelations.

Marina Zudina admits that at the beginning of their life together, she and Tabakov quarreled almost every morning: “ Everything I did caused dissatisfaction. Then they found a way out of the situation: he got up and did something himself, I woke up later, and we didn’t have time to argue" For Oleg Pavlovich, work undoubtedly came first. But his calling did not deprive Tabakov of the need to love and be a man. The actress emphasized that she was always present in her husband’s life, no matter what he did.

In an interview, Oleg Tabakov admitted that he was very worried about how long he would be able to see his children. The artist also stated that with the birth of his and Marina’s first son, Pavel Tabakov, he began to feel much younger and more cheerful. According to the actor, doctors also noted an improvement in physical health. " Our vitality does not dry up because we are physically worn out. They dry up when we are no longer needed. And while this factor is in effect, our possibilities are almost limitless.", Tabakov regulates.

“I have two of the happiest days of my life. The first was when I entered the course with Oleg Pavlovich. Apparently, this day determined my entire future fate. The second was Pavlik’s birthday, when after many hours of pain and horror relief came, and I saw the eyes of my beloved man, my husband,” admitted Zudina. There is not a single reason to doubt that the artist was also truly happy next to Marina.

Love for Oleg Tabakov captured Marina Zudina immediately and forever. The actress herself has confirmed this more than once. And her famous husband did not like to talk about his personal life and never flaunted it.

Their acquaintance took place when, at the age of 16, she came to enroll in Oleg Pavlovich’s course at GITIS. But since the age of 14, Marina dreamed of studying with Tabakov, who was her idol, writes the Komsomolskaya Pravda website.

“For some reason I understood that this man could do anything,” Marina recalled on one of her birthdays. And from that time a new life began for the girl, and love came. She was not alone in these feelings for an extraordinary person.

“Everyone was in love with him - both boys and girls. And this love turned out to be some kind of cosmic. He was a huge universe that could protect and support,” Zudina continued.

And she added that her feeling for her husband was “absolutely disinterested”; she “never played on him, did not demand anything, did not count.” And I had a presentiment of an affair with him. And God was merciful to her - he brought her together with her loved one “for her patience and for living the way her heart told her,” Marina shared.

And Oleg Pavlovich was married at that time. She did not want to ruin his fate and never insisted on divorce. Their romance lasted ten years, and only then Marina “started to think that she wanted something solid.” However, “I didn’t even hope that this would happen with this particular person.”

She wanted to meet a man “who would stop her falling in love.” In addition, “there were fans and courted, but God decreed that it was during this period that Oleg Pavlovich changed his life,” the actress noted.

Tabakov did not say the words “We will be together” and “did not admit his feelings for the first time.” His fleeting phrase “I love you!” was simply a response to her emotional speech one day.

And then he was very restrained. Marina even heard more compliments from others than from him. He is “a strongly feeling person, but due to his age and experience he knows how to restrain it.”

Tabakov called the relationship with his wife a gift from God. “If you consider that we have been together for 23 years, this is probably fate. And our two children are gifts of fate,” he said. Their family, according to Oleg Pavlovich, is based on Marina.

And she admitted that “as a woman, I realized myself and became freer” after the birth of my son and daughter.. And she suggested that “maybe because there is a man nearby with whom she feels confident.”

Their age difference was considerable - 30 years, and this caused a lot of speculation. However, in 2007, when " TVNZ"For Valentine's Day, she conducted a survey of readers asking them to name the most beautiful and happiest married couple; Zudina and Tabakov were among the main contenders for this title. The couple have two children together: the eldest, Pavel, is 22 years old, the youngest, Maria, is 10 years old, reminds me of EG.RU

People's Artist of the USSR Oleg Tabakov on Monday, March 12, at the age of 83. This was a huge loss for all of Russia. In the memory of his loved ones, friends and fans, he will forever remain a great master and loved one.

The departure of Oleg Tabakov is still hotly discussed by his fans: the actor is remembered with love and gratitude. Talk about his fabulous inheritance continues. The eldest son of Oleg Tabakov spoke about his attitude to this situation

According to various estimates, it is 200 million rubles and more. Some media even claim that everything acquired by Oleg Pavlovich amounts to several billions! But the heirs, they say, have nothing to worry about: allegedly Tabakov long ago transferred everything to Marina Zudina.

So what's true and what's false in the stories about the idol's inheritance?

“I miss my dad, not his possessions”

I’m calling Tabakov’s widow, actress Marina Zudina. She takes questions about inheritance with hostility.

The press writes data that does not correspond to reality,” Zudina said harshly. - I will not give information about what the property actually is.

I’m dialing the mobile number of Oleg Pavlovich’s eldest son Anton Tabakov.

- They say that Oleg Pavlovich bequeathed everything to Marina Zudina?

I admit that this is exactly what happened. But it’s better to ask Marina about this.

- Will you claim a share of the inheritance?

I don't care about inheritance at all. I'll wait a while until I start thinking in principle, but for now I have other concerns. You see, my dad died, and I really regret it. I yearn for him, and not for his movable or real estate or something material...

- There have been a lot of rumors about your sister Alexandra, who did not come to her father's funeral...

Each person acts as he sees fit. I am in no way defending or justifying it, but I respect her position. Since she did this, she had her own reasons for it.

The daughter did not forgive the betrayal

Those close to the KP actor were assured that Tabakov left a will, according to which all his property remains to Marina Zudina. Friends believe that this is quite logical, because she is dependent on her 11-year-old daughter Tabakov Masha. Their son Pavel is 22 years old - also quite young, which cannot be said about the older children from his first marriage. Son Anton and daughter Alexandra are adults, independent people, they are already over 50 years old. Oleg Tabakov's eldest son Anton is a wealthy man, a former successful restaurateur, who recently sold his business and moved with his family to Paris.

Fate eldest daughter Alexandra’s life was not so successful. In 1987, she graduated from the Moscow Art Theater School, acted in films (her most prominent role was in Vasily Pichul’s film “Little Vera”), and worked for some time in the theater under the direction of her father. Oleg Tabakov's departure from the family was a terrible blow for her. Alexandra’s teacher Kira Golovko said in an interview: Sasha once admitted to her that she wanted to commit suicide, the pain was so great.

After her parents’ divorce, Alexandra stopped communicating with Tabakov, quit her acting profession as a sign of protest and became a housewife. Sasha's first husband is the German actor Jan Josef Liefers, he is known for playing main role in the film “Knocking on Heaven’s Door.” From Jan Alexandra gave birth to a daughter, Polina. She never resumed her relationship with her father.

“Mom and sister are women, and for them such a betrayal can become a tragedy of a lifetime,” Anton Tabakov explained to reporters. - I was offended by my father, but then I established communication with him. I quickly forget grievances, it’s easier for me to exist this way. I don’t communicate with Marina Zudina because she is younger than me and all my friends.”

Several times in an interview, Oleg Tabakov admitted that he dreams of gathering all his children at one table. Alas, this dream remained unrealized.

BY THE WAY

What does Marina Zudina own?

Here's what according to tax documents is listed as the artist's widow:

Apartment in Chapaevsky Lane in Moscow, area 239.6 sq. m, price - 76.8 million rubles*. Marina Zudina and her children live here now.

Garage (Moscow, Chapaevsky lane), 13.2 sq. m, price - 1.2 million rubles.

Garage (Moscow, Chapaevsky lane), 16.3 sq. m, price - 1.5 million rubles.

Car space (Moscow, Chapaevsky lane), 10.5 sq. m, price - 270 thousand rubles.

Car space (Moscow, Chapaevsky lane), 16.9 sq. m, price - 1.57 million rubles.

Non-residential premises in Gorokhovsky Lane, Moscow, 76.5 sq. m. m, price - 5.15 million rubles.

Total: 86.49 million rubles.

Until recently, Marina Zudina owned another apartment in Chapaevsky Lane (105.6 sq. m., price - 33.87 million rubles). But since July 2017, he no longer owns it: the housing is either pledged to the bank, sold, or transferred to one of his relatives.

The apartment on Bakuninskaya Street (42 sq. m., price - 7.58 million rubles) had the same fate: Zudina owned it until December 2017. Maybe both apartments had to be sold to pay for the artist’s treatment (Oleg Tabakov for a long time suffered from prostate cancer, and was in the clinic for the last months)?

The list does not reflect the property that Oleg Tabakov may have left to his loved ones. But the will must come into force only six months after the artist’s death.

* The cadastral value is indicated, which may differ from the market value.

CALL TO THE FIRST WIFE

Lyudmila KRYLOVA: When Tabakov left, he left all the property for himself

I have good memories of Tabakov. The divorce was difficult, but everything gets better. Over time, I forgave, but did not forget anything,” Lyudmila Krylova told Komsomolskaya Pravda.

- I read an interview in which Tabakov said about your divorce: they say, he left all his property...

No! (Laughs.) He wrote: “I left everything.” I asked him: “Why didn’t you add that you left everything for YOURSELF?!” And he says: “That’s how I wanted it, that’s how I wrote it.” This was back when we were communicating. That's why everyone thought that he left everything to me and the children. And he left almost everything for himself. It was me, one might say, who was left with nothing.

- But he said in an interview that he paid 120 thousand dollars in compensation ex-wife and bought an apartment for my daughter.

You see, we shared an apartment with Tabakov on Pokrovka, four-room, with two toilets, four loggias. It was some kind of KGB house, special. The apartment was simply gorgeous. After the divorce, he valued it at the reduced state value, and not at the market, commercial value. And he paid me the money. And I bought my daughter Alexandra a two-room apartment - it was black, just shabby. She spent three or four years making repairs to it at her own expense and at my expense. When Tabakov arrived at this apartment, I had already bought furniture similar to the one we had in the apartment on Pokrovka. And he looked like that... It was his fault that the divorce occurred. If men leave, they leave everything and leave. And he... well, what am I saying now, he’s gone, Lord!

- After the divorce, you never remarried?

Yes, this was the only marriage.

- Did something resonate in your heart when you heard the news of Tabakov’s death?

Let's not talk about this...
