Yevgeny Tsyganov returned to his wife. Tsyganov abandoned his pregnant wife and six children. The collapse of a strong family
Three years have passed since Evgeny Tsyganov left home, leaving a civil wife, Irina Leonova, who was pregnant with their seventh child. The actor himself never commented on the reasons for the breakup, the public had to be content with the words of Tsyganov's colleagues, who believed that Eugene was simply tired of "everyday life". And this explanation seems to be true, because their house with Irina could hardly be called a "safe haven".
The most atypical thing in this story was that she did not give any comments and Irina Leonova, who got into a very difficult situation due to the departure of her husband. Usually in such cases, women, being more emotional beings, give vent to their feelings and interviews full of pain and hatred appear in the press. But from Irina, the journalists waited only for a short statement of fact: “He let me down. Having seven children, having another one on the side is absolute irresponsibility. (This is how Irina reacted to the news of pregnancy from Tsyganov actress Yulia Snigir.) For all these three years, Leonova never explained the reasons for their breakup, did not even complain to her close friends how difficult it was to cope alone with seven children.
Of course, there are examples of such "closeness" in the acting environment. For example, the ex-wife of Tom Cruise Katie Holmes She also did not say a word about the reasons for the divorce. But she is bound by a very tough non-disclosure contract, violating which, she can lose a lot, if not all. It is unlikely that Tsyganov took care of such an agreement, moreover, they were not married to Irina Leonova. Those who know the actress also reject the assumption that she is silent, afraid of losing the money that Eugene allocates for the maintenance of children. It remains to be assumed that Irina is the owner of a very persistent character, a person who is ready to cope with any vicissitudes of fate, not used to complaining and asking for help.

Before a civil marriage with Tsyganov, Irina was married to Igor Petrenko. Yevgeny's father, Eduard, once said that Petrenko considered her to blame for the fact that they did not have children. “Irina was treated for a long time to give birth, but still did not get pregnant,” Edward said in an interview. - It can be seen that they simply had incompatibility in this regard. Now, after all, Irochka gave birth to Zhenya five! Maybe she wanted to prove to her ex that she was all right? Before her, my son had many girls, I don’t remember the names anymore, but he chose Ira. So this is his woman!
The romance of Irina and Evgeny began on the set of the film "Children of the Arbat". She left her husband and soon (in 2005) she and Tsyganov had their first child, daughter Polina. “Zhenya and I both wanted a large family from the very beginning. It was a mutual wish. They dreamed of living together until old age, ”Irina will say in one of her rare interviews. Whether there were many such examples among colleagues, Leonova and Tsyganov did not seem to care too much. After the family became large, Irina stopped acting and playing in the theater, completely devoting herself to her children and husband. Eugene was engaged in creativity and making money. When asked about what part he takes in raising children, the actor somehow answered: “What do we know about education? I don’t remember who said it: “I studied by a beam of light from my father’s office.” I saw how he works, that's all education. I would like to deal with myself, and the children will somehow educate themselves ... ”Not a very responsible position, frankly. On the other hand, you never know what is true in acting interviews, and what is panache, the desire to look cooler, more independent. But let's not forget, this man confirmed his words with an act.
Any mother of many children will tell you that after the birth of the fourth child (and for some even earlier), her profession becomes caring for children and raising them. Did Irina understand this? It is hard to say. But if she understood, then she was ready to devote herself completely to the family. And yet, I am 100% sure that Eugene is a reliable and responsible man. What could give her such confidence? Judging by the events of three years ago, when Tsyganov "suddenly" left his pregnant wife for actress Yulia Snigir, Evgeny's extraordinary acting talent.

The acting profession, like any other creative work, "takes" a person as a whole, requires dedication, and often - renunciation of personal and family life. No wonder many successful actresses deliberately refused to have children, fearing that this would put an end to their careers. And those who nevertheless decided to have a child later faced huge problems due to the fact that they could not devote enough time to their offspring, did not find contact with a son or daughter brought up by nannies and grandmothers. In fairness, it should be noted that there are other, prosperous families. But you can’t call them actors - as a rule, the second spouse in such a pair has nothing to do with cinema and theater.
The story of Evgeny Tsyganov, Irina Leonova and Yulia Snigir, at first glance, is a story about irresponsibility. It seems that these people built their destiny, driven by exceptionally strong feelings, without thinking about what will happen tomorrow. But, unlike Evgeny and Yulia, who started life from scratch, the mother of seven children is unlikely to succeed. However, maybe we just do not know much?
Actor Yevgeny Eduardovich Tsyganov is a native Muscovite. He was born on March 15, 1979. Already now he is the owner of several very prestigious prizes and awards in the field of cinematography. In the family, no one had anything to do with art, much less was a representative of the acting profession. The guy's parents worked at the Research Institute "Titan". It was there that they met. Mom and dad were developing very powerful microwave devices that were intended for air defense systems. No one could have thought that a child would be drawn to art from childhood. Evgeny Tsyganov's wife bore him seven children, but this did not save their marriage from disintegration.

In addition to Zhenya, the older sister Irina was brought up in the family. The future actor was a rather late child, so his parents allowed him almost everything. He attended a music school, which he graduated with great success. At the age of 14, Tsyganov joined the musical group that played on the Arbat. After 4 years, a talented young man moved to the Grenki group, which plays in the Britpop direction. They not only played in prestigious clubs. But even managed to record an album. After some time, the interest of the public in the team began to subside, so in 2004 the group was disbanded.
In addition to music, Eugene was very fond of the theater. From childhood, he was a participant in productions for the youngest spectators. A talented boy was invited as a performer of children's roles to the Taganka Theater. His peers watched cartoons while the future star was already playing in very serious performances. The roles were very minor, but they gave the future actor not only tremendous experience, but also useful contacts. Nevertheless, the backstage theatrical life did not impress Tsyganov and he made a serious decision to leave the theater stage and never connect his life with the acting profession.
No matter how strange it may sound, Eugene was expelled from school for poor academic performance. I had to go to film school and learn the profession of operator. Many directors continued to praise Tsyganov's acting talent and advised him to enter Shchukinskoye. Perhaps a good operator would have come out of him, but the guy succumbed to persuasion. He was not a student of this university for long: a year later he took the documents and handed them over to GITIS at the directing department. It was here that the fateful meeting with Peter Fomenko took place, who helped change a lot in the fate of this talented guy.
Ex-wife Irina Leonova, relationship history
Eugene is a very charismatic guy who has always been successful with the opposite sex. While still a student, he started a relationship with a girl who was younger than him. It was the beautiful Olga Stashkevich. Their relationship was not even hindered by the fact that she was 10 cm taller than the young man. This continued until 2004, until Zhenya met actress Irina Leonova. It was she who became a truly dear and close person for the artist. The couple met while working on the painting "Children of the Arbat".

Some time later Zhenya and Ira got married. It should be noted that at the time of the acquaintance, the woman was already officially married to the equally famous actor Igor Petrenko. Their relationship was rather tense due to the lack of children. As soon as a new lover appeared on the threshold, Leonova dissolved the marriage. But Olga experienced the hardest break with her former lover. The girl still does not want to discuss relations with Tsyganov.

After the wedding, Eugene and Irina began to live in the capital's house. They had seven children. Leonova left her career in order to deal with family affairs and her husband. But Eugene was not so devoted. As a result, he left his wife and 7 children and left for another woman.
Why did Evgeny Tsyganov leave his wife?
Many are interested in the reasons for the divorce of Leonova and Tsyganov. Until recently, the artist did not give any comments on this matter and refused to discuss his relationship with the once beloved woman. It is known that when Ira was pregnant with her seventh child, her husband had a new relationship on the side. Immediately after the birth of the baby, he left the family. Friends say that the guy simply could not stand that frantic pace of life. After all, he had to work, and then return to the house, where there was almost never peace and quiet: the kids frolicked all the time, cried, screamed. Maybe his psyche just couldn't handle it.

Children of Evgeny Tsyganov and Irina Leonova.
Irina gave birth to her first child in 2005. It was Pauline's daughter. In total, three daughters and four sons were born in the family. The girls were named Polina, Sofia, Vera, and the boys were named Nikita, Andrey, Alexander, Georgy. It is too early to say whether they will follow in the footsteps of their parents or choose other professions. Eugene tries, if possible, to help his ex-wife not only financially, but also to assist in raising children. Despite the presence of a new family, the artist does not give up on the kids and is ready to do everything to ensure that they grow up happy and do not need anything.

New wife Julia Snigir
While still married, Eugene began to have an affair with a very attractive actress Yulia Snigir. It was these relationships that led to the fact that Yevgeny Tsyganov and his wife Irina divorced. However, the artist is in no hurry to officially formalize relations with a new lover. And this is despite the fact that in 2016 she gave birth to his son Fedor. The couple does not stop working actively, starring in films and TV shows. It is clear that in this situation it is very difficult to pay due attention to the child. Neither Zhenya nor Yulia are going to sacrifice their careers for the sake of their families. So far, work for them is in the first place.

Eugene and Yulia do not comment on the fact whether they are going to legitimize their relationship and whether they plan to have children. They just live together just because they feel good and comfortable. Also, Eugene does not comment on his relationship with his ex-wife Irina after the divorce. It is only known that he takes part in the upbringing of his own children as far as possible. Maybe Leonova still loves her ex-husband and, on occasion, could forgive him. But will the hero-lover want to renew the relationship again and return to the family, or will he prefer an unofficial marriage with a beautiful girl? Who knows, but in any case, one of the children of Eugene will be brought up in an incomplete family and lack paternal attention.

Now Eugene is engaged not only in an acting career. The guy staged the play on the theater stage of the Pyotr Fomenko Workshop, which was a success. In addition, he performed on the stage of the famous festival "Invasion-2017" together with the POKAPRET group. The artist develops as a versatile personality and every time he performs in front of his fans in a new role.

Rarely updates his microblog on Instagram. Therefore, each photo published on social networks by an actor becomes a real treat for his fans. Today Tsyganov pleased Internet users with a fresh picture of his sons. On the frame, the boys pose in superhero costumes.
“And as you know, we are a hot people!” – signed frame Eugene. The fans were touched and commented on the photo: “Very cute!”, “Sweet-ee :)))))) Three heroes !!!”, “Cool guys”. By the way, earlier in the microblog of the actor flashed mostly pictures of daughters.
Recall that Evgeny Tsyganov has eight children. Seven were born married to Irina Leonova, and one gave birth to Tsyganova Yulia Snigir. Tsyganov broke up with Leonova last year. The actress did not dare to tell the children that her father had left the family. In the same year, Evgeny Tsyganov began dating Snigir. The lovers appeared as a couple at the opening of the Beat Film Festival 2016 documentary film festival. In March, the actress gave birth to her beloved son Fedor. In November of the same year, information appeared in the press that Tsyganov and Snigir were planning to get married. This was told to journalists by friends of the family. Julia and Eugene do not tell reporters the details of their personal lives. Only in May of this year, the actor first published a photo of his wife in his microblog: in a black and white picture, the actress is without makeup and in a home suit. Social events, by the way, Snigir and Gypsies visit quite rarely. Julia was last seen at the premiere of the film "Attraction" by Fyodor Bondarchuk. The actress was wearing a black trouser suit, a shiny top and leather pumps.

The most large actor in Russia is working hard to provide for two families
The most large actor in Russia is working hard to provide for two families.
Photo: PhotoXPress.ru Evgeny Tsyganov is one of the most sought-after serial actors in the country. The series "" with his participation has just ended. More films coming out soon. The actor has just finished filming in Pskov, and in the fall he will star in two more films. He manages to play in the theater "Workshop of Pyotr Fomenko", plans to stage a performance there as a theater director. Despite the crisis, Tsyganov has a job. And he can still afford to refuse offers to hold a corporate party or star in an advertisement. The actor's agent assured us that even six-figure fees would not force Tsyganov to change his principles.
The TV program magazine found out how the 37-year-old father of eight children: former and current. Recall that a year ago, Irina Leonova, who was pregnant with her 7th child. Then, in the summer of 2015, another actress, Yulia Snigir, learned about pregnancy from Tsyganov. The father of many children went to her.
Sunday dad
From 38-year-old Irina Leonova, Evgeny left for 33-year-old Yulia Snigir. Photo: kinopoisk.ru Evgeny Tsyganov once admitted that at the age of 14 he understood: strangers cannot give correct assessments of a person’s act - everyone only understands how best to live and act. Tsyganov made the decision to leave his common-law wife shortly after he learned about Yulia Snigir's pregnancy. Apparently, love was stronger than fatherly feelings. The past year showed that even in such, in the opinion of the majority, a hopeless situation, a compromise can be found.
The former civil wife of the actor remained to live in their apartment on Leninsky Prospekt. Irina manages to manage with the guys: they are always clean and neatly dressed, they attend circles and sections. Tsyganov's parents help in the upbringing of their grandchildren to the best of their ability. Now actress Irina Leonova is preparing children for September 1, visiting school markets. Money for purchases is transferred to the card by the father of the children. Tsyganov and Leonova are growing up: 11-year-old Polina, 10-year-old Nikita, 7-year-old Andrey, 6-year-old Sofia, 5-year-old Sasha, 2-year-old Georgy and Vera, who will turn one in September.
“My parents and I visit Ira and nephews,” Vladimir. “All her time is occupied by children and rehearsals in the theater.” Leonova's relatives live in Tallinn, so they don't come often. Eugene pays for the babysitter and the necessary expenses. The family does not chic, but does not need. If the actor is not busy filming, then on the weekend he takes the children for a walk. As the neighbors of the Leonovs told us, Evgeny gives the impression of a caring father: he never arrives empty-handed (he enters the entrance with packages of gifts and toys), the children are happy with him and literally do not come off their father.
Before parting with Irina, Eugene said that his children have an amazing mother, and nannies appear in the family from time to time. He complained that because of him, Leonova exchanged her career for maternal chores. Their romance began on the set of the film "Children of the Arbat". Because of Tsyganov, Leonova divorced actor Igor Petrenko. After 12 years, Eugene had a new office romance.
New family

Feda will turn six months on September 9, but he is already actively traveling with his mother around Russia. The actress accompanies her beloved man on the set. In Pskov, work on the 10-episode historical film "Sofia" is being completed, where Tsyganov plays Ivan III. During the day he was busy on the set, and in the evening the family went for walks. Julia, as a wise woman, tries not to leave Eugene alone for a long time. Perhaps he is bored, or maybe because he knows his temperament. After all, Tsyganov himself described himself in one interview as “gouging” and shared his thoughts about his attractiveness with the opposite sex: “... We all want to love and be loved. You are a man, so, in theory, you should be attracted to women. There is still the concept of temptation ... "
Evgeny Tsyganov with his son Fedor and Yulia Snigir for a walk in Pskov. Photo: KP - Pskov In Moscow, on Kutuzovsky Prospekt, Yulia's parents help them with the baby. They came from the Tula region and rent an apartment in the capital to help their daughter with the baby when she is busy filming. Friends of the 33-year-old actress say that she is happy, and Eugene willingly babysits the baby in his free time. Everyone hopes that Tsyganov's throwing is over and he has finally decided.
The personal life of 39-year-old Evgeny Tsyganov was hardly talked about until he left Irina Leonova, pregnant with her seventh child, for the sake of Yulia Snigir. The participants in the scandalous triangle refrain from commenting, so the site is taken to find out with the help of professionals how Tsyganov's relationship with women developed and how long his love with Snigir will last.
Evgeny Tsyganov has always been one of the most mysterious people in Russian show business. The actor rarely agrees to talk with media representatives, skips social events and does his best to protect his personal life from the press. The day when the media found out about the separation of Tsyganov and his common-law wife Irina Leonova may have been one of the worst in his life - scandalous details were discussed in newspapers, magazines, social networks - everywhere.
A special drama was added by the fact that at the time of the breakup, Leonova was pregnant with her seventh child. Many at that time did not understand what could make the actor leave the family. Tsyganov himself asked journalists not to get into his personal life. However, the awl in the bag cannot be hidden - the press quickly got to the bottom of the truth.
It turned out that Tsyganov had left his civil wife for his colleague Yulia Snigir, whom he had secretly met at that time. Soon we learned that the new lover gave birth to Eugene's eighth child ...
the site decided to recall the main novels of Yevgeny Tsyganov and try to explain why his personal life is so difficult.
First serious relationship
Evgeny Tsyganov was born into a family of employees of a Moscow research institute, but his parents did not demand that he follow in their footsteps, but instead provided freedom of choice. The future actor was drawn to creativity from childhood: he studied at a music school, tried himself in children's roles at the Taganka Theater, played in a rock band.
In 1996, Evgeny entered the Shchukin School and, after completing one course, went to GITIS at the directing department, which he graduated in 2001.
It was while studying at GITIS that Tsyganov met Olga Stashkevich. With her, the actor had his first serious romance. The bright beauty Olga was 6 years younger than Eugene and, in addition, a few centimeters taller.
It is not known exactly how long the relationship between Stashkevich and Tsyganov lasted - both actors now prefer not to recall or comment on that period of their biography. However, some sources mention the reason for the gap - another woman with Eugene.
Office romance 11 years long
Evgeny Tsyganov met Irina Leonova in 2004 on the set of the TV series Children of the Arbat. Passion immediately broke out between colleagues. At that time, the actress was married, but, apparently, not too happy, because very soon after meeting with Yevgeny, Irina divorced Igor Petrenko and moved to a new lover. In 2005, the couple had their first daughter, in 2006 - a son.
“Zhenya and I both wanted a large family from the very beginning. This is a mutual desire. They dreamed of living together until old age, ”Leonova later admitted in an interview. However, it turned out differently.
In 2015, it became known that Leonova and Tsyganov were expecting their seventh child. Colleagues did not have time to congratulate the couple on the upcoming replenishment, as information appeared in the media that Eugene had left the family. On the sidelines, they then whispered for a long time why the actor “ran away” so abruptly and unexpectedly. According to a number of insiders, Tsyganov was tired of the tense situation at home: he had long dreamed of getting out of a creative crisis, aggravated by family responsibilities, in order to focus on work.
At first, Eugene really seemed to come to life: a few months after parting with his wife, he managed to complete filming in several projects, receive the main award "Person of the Year" of the GQ magazine award, and give several concerts with his group. However, the real reason why Tsyganov left his pregnant wife turned out to be much more prosaic: he had a new woman.
And spun
The star of the Thaw also met Yulia Snigir at work. In 2014, the actors together took part in the filming of the series "Where the Motherland Begins." Apparently, their relationship developed rapidly: after about a year, Tsyganov became so attached to his beloved that he decided to leave the pregnant Leonova.
Eugene and Julia hid their romance for a long time. When asked about his personal life, Tsyganov, who was initially suspected of having affairs with several women, answered sharply and rudely: “What are you worried about? Julia Peresild? Good girl. Snigir - too. I'm ok. Let them write what they want. I don't care. But as for my children… Children do not concern you.”
However, very quickly, there was so much evidence of the romance between Tsyganov and Snigir that no one else needed official confirmation. In 2016, the actress gave birth to a child, who became the eighth for her lover.
Little is known about how the relationship of the actors is developing now. This year, they showed their son for the first time (but only from the back) and went out together, attending the premiere of the film "The Story of a Destination". In public, the lovers kept a low profile and, barely embracing, allowed the photographers to take a few joint shots.
For some time, the press continued to follow the life of Irina Leonova, but even here there were no sensations. Despite the painful separation, the actress did not denigrate her ex-husband in front of reporters and only once called his behavior "irresponsible". It is known that after the birth of her seventh child, Leonova very quickly returned to the theater and now works hard to support her children. Tsyganov tries to help the family as best he can, but Irina's life can hardly be called easy.
And yet, in this story, at least some explanations and details are simply needed. the site turned to physiognomist Zoya Nikitenkova for help, and also asked body language expert Ilya Anishchenko to analyze joint photographs of Evgeny Tsyganov and Yulia Snigir. In the photo gallery to our material, read how the actor's relationship with women developed, what he expects from falling in love and how his current relationship can develop.
