The biography and personal life of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan are of interest to fans of the actor. Who is his wife and children.

It's time to reveal the secrets of his life. I must say that the actor was unlucky in his personal life. The actress Alla Yurievna Vannovskaya became his first wife. The young actor immediately drew attention to her when they worked together in the Yerevan theater. Soon they met and became friends. A beautiful and talented woman took possession of Armen's heart. He proposed to her, she agreed.

But who could have known that his wife would develop a rare mental illness - chorea. This is a hereditary disease characterized by chaotic actions, often unconscious, similar to normal facial movements, only greatly exaggerated.

In addition, the spouse was suspicious and jealous. Gradually, life with her became unbearable. After the birth of his daughter Elena, Armen took his daughter and left his wife, fearing that the patient could harm the baby.

After the divorce, Alla was placed in a psychiatric hospital, where she ended her life.

Armen was very upset after the tragedy. He also feared for his daughter's life and health, knowing that this mental illness could be inherited. And he was not wrong. Soon, the daughter was diagnosed with the same disease. When Elena grew up, she was left alone in her car and fell asleep in it, forgetting to turn off the engine. She was later found dead in the car.

After all that he had experienced, Armen Dzhigarkhanyan did not dare to enter into relationships with women. But the meeting with Tatyana Vlasova was a consolation for him. The woman influenced him so much that he immediately proposed to her.

They did not even have time to buy rings, and at the registry office Armen put her grandmother's wedding ring on her. Since the spouses did not have children, Armen adopted the wife's son from his first marriage. His name is Stepan.

The marriage was happy. They lived together for about forty years! Soon, fans gave Armen a home in the United States. The family moved there. Then the actor borrowed money and bought another apartment in Texas. The couple began to live in two countries. For filming, the actor had to come to Russia. His wife got a job as a teacher in the States.

Representatives of Dzhigarkhanyan's young wife, Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya, assure that it was she who contained the 82-year-old actor [radio broadcast]

Change text size: A A

The family scandal of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya does not subside. Armen Borisovich filed for divorce, in front of television cameras called his 38-year-old wife "a thief", announcing that in two years of marriage, she rewrote all his property and emptied the accounts. The 82-year-old actor suspects his wife of fraud not only with his personal finances, but also with the funds of his theater, where Vitalina has been the director for the last two years. According to the statement written by the artist to the Investigative Committee, a check has begun.

Dzhigarkhanyan's young wife earned four times more than her husband

"He was dependent on her"

The fact that Vitalina stole some property from Dzhigarkhanyan is a lie! - the representative of Tsymbalyuk Elina Mazur assured us. - Vitalina is very worried, because on his part this is the deepest betrayal. Carry some kind of nonsense about the theft, actually being dependent on Vitalina! She is not a poor person, she has her own ways to make money. And to say that beggar Vitalina came and robbed a rich old man is sheer nonsense.

- But Dzhigarkhanyan said that now he has nowhere to go - he was left with nothing!

It is not true. An apartment was bought from him and Vitalina in marriage, this is joint property.

An apartment worth 30 million rubles on Molodogvardeyskaya Street, which Vitalina acquired, as she said, for them and Armen Borisovich, is registered only to her, argues a close friend of the artist Artur Soghomonyan. - Vitalina took over the apartment the day before the marriage was registered, so after the divorce this property will not be divided in half. Another apartment, a one-room apartment in the village "Rublevskoe suburb" of the Krasnogorsk region, was rewrote by Armen Borisovich to Vitalina himself - at her request. The share in the apartment in Starokonyushenny Lane, in which Armen Borisovich lived with his wife Tatyana Vlasova, Vitalina sold the legal entity. It turns out that legally there is no property at all on Armen Borisovich. He left her with one suitcase. But Vitalina has three apartments.

- They say that Tsymbalyuk's salary in the theater was higher than that of Armen Borisovich?

Yes. Several times more. There was something strange going on with the accounting department. At the beginning of this year, the Moscow Department of Culture allocated about 100 million rubles to the theater. Prior to that, he allocated 85 million rubles a year. And at the same time, the theater had tax debts, wages were delayed. Money disappeared somewhere.

Own firm

In a short time, pianist Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya, who came to Moscow in 2009 from Ukraine, has become a successful business woman. At first, she did not have housing in Moscow, she even issued a temporary registration at the Dzhigarkhanyan Theater. Armen Borisovich accepted her as the head of the musical part of the theater. But when Vitalina became his legal wife, she took the place of CEO.

We decided to clarify Vitalina's income. A source told KP: the official earnings of the director of the Dzhigarkhanyan Theater, Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya, were about 300 thousand rubles a month (see photo of the document).

- What is Dzhigarkhanyan's monthly salary? - I address the question to the source.

After he transferred the functions of the head of the theater to Tsymbalyuk, this is 80 thousand rubles.

- It's not a mistake?!

No. Armen Borisovich was calm about the reduction of wages ...

Maybe the artist didn't care about money, because he has savings for a rainy day? But our other source said that no bank accounts were registered in the name of Dzhigarkhanyan. More precisely, they were, but are now closed, since the money was withdrawn from them.

But Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya is a lady with a high income. It includes accounts and cells in several banks. The woman owns three apartments, two in the Krasnogorsk region and one in Moscow. In addition, Tsymbalyuk registered the company Art-Vitalina-Project.

Vitalina's company was engaged in the rental of entrepreneurial performances, - says Artur Soghomonyan. - For example, there was an entertaining performance in which Dmitry Kharatyan, Vitalina, Dzhigarkhanyan participated. Profit from the rental went to Vitalina's company. And who really spent the money on the production, paid the artists' salaries? There is a version that the theater spent, and she took the profit. This company is now being checked by the authorities.

Dad became the chief electrician at the theater, mom became a costume designer

The big question is why Vitalina received more than Armen Borisovich, continues Artur Soghomonyan. - I would not be surprised if her parents, whom she recruited to the theater, she put a salary higher than that of Dzhigarkhanyan. Her dad became the chief electrician, her mother became the chief costume designer. She eliminated the position of artistic director and made Armen Borisovich president - this is an observant position, without actual power ...

- Was money the main reason for the disintegration of their family?

Discontent has been accumulating for a long time. The fact that Vitalina was worried about her financial situation was still all right. Armen Borisovich looked at it tolerantly. He said, they say, she was coming, she wanted to have real estate here, I understand ... But when Vitalina suddenly decided that she was a stage director and began to make musical performances, fundamental disagreements began.

Last year, a conflict arose when Dzhigarkhanyan ordered the cancellation of a musical performance about Mary Stuart staged by her, but she still released it. I remember I came to the premiere and was amazed. There is some kind of karaoke on the stage: artists who cannot sing picked up a microphone. Even before the premiere, Armen Borisovich felt bad - he demanded to remove the play. Even his doctor said: well, cancel the premiere, since he reacts like that, health is more expensive. But Vitalina did it in her own way. Then they had a big quarrel, I reconciled them. He invited them to go to Spain together, paid for the rest. Armen Borisovich calmed down.

"There were rumors of infidelity"

But this autumn everything happened again, - says Artur Soghomonyan. - Vitalina made a musical performance "Marina Tsvetaeva". Armen Borisovich looked and said: "I forbid the premiere." But she still put out the play - they say, the money has been invested, it cannot be canceled. Then Armen Borisovich had a health crisis, he ended up in the hospital.

We, friends, were surprised by the chosen one of Armen Borisovich before, but since Vitalina took care of his health, we did not interfere with their relationship. But this time Vitalina behaved aggressively, started talking about the fact that it was time for Armen Borisovich to retire. Moreover, there were rumors about her probable infidelity ... I do not know if they are true, but perhaps such conversations also reached Armen Borisovich. And yet I think main reason the collapse of their family is that Vitalina began to make productions herself and did not listen to Dzhigarkhanyan's opinions. And for him, the creative question comes first. He is heartbroken for the theater, which bears his name.

SPECIFICALLY

What does the artist's wife own?

According to the database of the state registration service, the young wife of Dzhigarkhanyan, Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya, owns three apartments:

✔ Three-room apartment (134.5 m2) on Molodogvardeyskaya street, next to the Kuntsevskaya metro station. Cadastral value - 30 million rubles. According to realtors, it is possible to sell an apartment for 40-60 million rubles, taking into account the renovation, the fact that the house is a new building, there is an underground parking, two insulated balconies, a good location, near the metro. The markup can also be taken for stardom, since the housing belonged to Dzhigarkhanyan.

✔ One-room (53 m2) in the village "Rublevskoe suburb" in the Krasnogorsk region. Cadastral value - 5 million rubles. According to realtors, it may cost 7-10 million rubles. (considering that this is a new building in an elite village).

✔ Apartment (71.3 m2) in Krasnogorsk, where her parents live. But according to the documents, it belongs to Vitalina. Cadastral value - 6 million rubles. According to realtors' estimates, it may cost 7.5-10 million rubles, since it is located almost near Moscow, a new building.

MEANWHILE

She was appointed by the Department of Culture of Moscow after the resignation of Vitalina Tsymbalyuk. Deputy Gilvanova is also sick.

“The most difficult thing is that not very good processes have taken place in my life. I had a wife, like a normal person. Then this woman turned out to be - either she doesn't like me, or she. I'm talking about Vitalina ... Although nothing seems to be in danger. Sad, sad. Vitalina, I can hardly pronounce her name, brought me a lot of unfair pain. I am always afraid when people close to me suddenly begin to drive up close to me. Oh, I say no: “Wait a minute. Let me think for myself and make a decision. ”No, I’m not ready to forgive her. Now I say so. Even thinking, I say no with confidence. I will speak in rude words. She behaved vilely. A thief, she is a thief, not a person ... Yes, I'm talking about Vitalin, ”Armen Dzhigarkhanyan said in the program“ Andrey Malakhov. Live".

Later, the actor also said that Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya left him without property - two apartments of the famous artist were rewritten to her: “She is a little sick, to be honest. Thief, clean water. She not figuratively, right from my pocket, stole money. Either deception, or I'm already a little tired. I tell you honestly, I'm a People's Artist Soviet Union, I have no apartment where to live. There was only half of the apartment left with Tatyana Sergeevna. A normal person wants a little less. Vitalina Vladimirovna stole. "

Armen Dzhigarkhanyan: I have nowhere to live. Let them talk

In 1999 he received a green card from the US government quota for outstanding artists. A seven-room house in America was presented by an admirer. Until 2015, he lived in two countries: three to four months a year - usually summer and early autumn - in Garland near Dallas (Texas, USA), and from September to May - in Moscow.

On March 5, 2016 he was hospitalized at the N.N. NV Sklifosovsky with suspected myocardial infarction.

Armen Dzhigarkhanyan's abandoned wife Tatyana Vlasova gave her first interview. The ex-wife accused the people's artist of cheating on her for 15 years.

It turns out that Tatyana has a lot of reasons to take offense at Armen. The ex-wife of Dzhigarkhanyan claims that while she was building a family nest for him in the United States, he was in a relationship with a young mistress in Russia.
In 1998, the actor bought a house in Dallas and persuaded Vlasov to look after him, to conduct a household there, overseas. He himself stayed in Moscow. Tatiana suspects that immediately after her departure, Armen began an official romance with his current young wife Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya.
“When I moved to America, I was 57 years old. Now I am 74 years old. Vitalina, Dzhigarkhanyan's new wife, says their relationship is over 15 years old. Exactly how long I lived in America, it turns out that for so many years my husband deceived me ... ”- Vlasova conducted her own investigation.
The ex-wife of Dzhigarkhanyan noted that they always lived modestly, and allowed herself a hairpin addressed to Vitalina. “I didn't have luxurious fur coats, I didn't go to the presentation with my husband. She didn't go anywhere, unlike his new wife. Nobody really knew me at the Mayakovsky Theater, where Dzhigarkhanyan worked for more than a quarter of a century. I wasn’t promoting at his expense. It suited him. He said that he doesn't like parties as much as I don't. And now he constantly appears in public with his young wife. I think she needs it more than he needs it, ”Tatiana suggested.


Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya. Photo: GLOBAL LOOK press / Pravda Komsomolskaya The crisis in the marriage of Dzhigarkhanyan and Vlasova came during his illness. Armen told reporters that when several years ago he was lying with a stroke in Moscow, no one from Dallas called him, asked about his health, did not offer help.
“Now they are saying that I did not take proper care of my husband. He stopped coming to Dallas in 2009 when he suffered a second stroke. But I didn't know he was sick. He used to call America. I was waiting for him in Dallas, and at that time, it turns out, he was in the hospital. Doctors forbade him to fly. When I found out about this, I flew to Moscow to visit him in the hospital. But my husband said: we don’t have to go to him, he himself will decide how we will meet, ”Tatyana justified herself.
The actor supported Vlasov financially. I sent her funds regularly. “In America, I lived with this money, paid taxes, utility bills, and did home repairs. In March 2015, I sold the house, and in April I returned to Moscow. I called my husband: come, please, let's talk. He again refused to meet under various pretexts. Soon the question of divorce arose. That's when I refused material assistance. In June, we were divorced, "the Komsomolskaya Pravda website quotes Dzhigarkhanyan's ex-wife.
Unfortunately, the former spouses could not part in peace, without offense. “I didn't manage to meet Armen Borisovich. When I humbly waited for him near the theater, it was a few months after our divorce, he didn't even want to talk to me, - Tatyana recalls with a shudder. - I watched him on the street after the performance, he went out, I say to him: "Hello, I am Tatiana Sergeevna." “Hello,” he replied amiably. He didn't even recognize me! And when I realized who I was, I got into my car and drove away. Then they wrote a statement against me to the police that I allegedly threatened Dzhigarkhanyan. I didn’t threaten, I tried to talk to my ex-husband. ”
Vlasova hopes that Dzhigarkhanyan, like a gentleman, will leave her an apartment on the Arbat. “At my age, it's hard to start new life... He has another apartment in Krasnogorsk, where he lives with Vitalina. There is another one in Kuntsevo, where they are doing repairs. There is an apartment that Vitalina's parents allegedly bought when they moved from Kiev, ”Tatiana listed.
With the money for the house sold in Dallas, Vlasova hopes to live. “I am alone, there is no one to expect help. Armen Borisovich has a large salary and a pension of the People's Artist of the USSR. And I have a minimum old-age pension - 8,500 rubles. Going to doctors, buying medicines - everything is very expensive, ”Dzhigarkhanyan's abandoned wife summed up sadly.
