How many children does Catherine Peskova have. Ekaterina Solotsinskaya: biography and personal life. Learning from your own mistakes
Hello. Today I will tell you a story about one of our old and vile acquaintances.
I, honestly, thought that it was already impossible to dig up anything new about him. We all seemed to have skinned him already - we wrote about watches for 37 million, and about yachts, and about houses, and about the unemployed son of a millionaire.
Of course, you already guessed who I am. About Putin's permanent press secretary Peskov.
In response to our past revelations, be it watches, yachts or houses that an official cannot afford, Peskov invented ingenious formula.
"NAVKA GIVED". That is, everything was given by his wife, and he is an unfortunate kept official.
This "NAVKA GIVED" has become a powerful antidote and a strong shield against the attacks of the FBK. universal explanation. An invisibility cloak that can be used to cover corruptly acquired assets and pretend that everything is fine.
But we can't just give up, can we? It is impossible to let us fool for years with their fables about a fabulously rich and generous wife. We at FBK thought for a long time and figured out how to break this Peskov formula. You just need to find something very expensive that Navka EXACTLY could not give.
And we found. In Paris.
It was in Paris that Peskov's ex-wife Ekaterina Solotsinskaya bought an apartment for almost 2 million euros. Ekaterina is a newly-made official, she works in Rossotrudnichestvo. You can't really afford an apartment like this. And there is an apartment. But where? Really...?
OK. Watch the video. And for those who like to read, below is a sparkling text and a bunch of beautiful pictures.
I am sure that most readers already remember the chronology of the deadly fight between FBK and Peskov. Nevertheless, let's refresh and, as they say, put it in the protocol.

The girl received her secondary education in Ankara. After school, she entered the Moscow State University at the Faculty of Philology.

In June 2000, the Peskovs returned to Moscow, bought a mansion on Rublyovka. her husband was rapidly moving up the career ladder, wealth grew in the house, but she herself felt deprived. She lacked the attention of her husband, self-realization. As a result, the woman, having taken her friend as a companion, opened her own business - the Katya and Lena beauty salon.
Latest news about Ekaterina Peskova
After the divorce, Ekaterina Peskova began to live in two houses. She maintained a good relationship with her husband, but in Russia she became uncomfortable. Most of the time the woman spent in Moscow with her children, she went to Paris for the weekend. In recent years, Catherine lives mainly in France. There she is engaged in charity and marketing, heads the Franco-Russian Dialogue Foundation.
Solotsinskaya gladly attends parties that are organized by people from noble families who emigrated to France at the beginning of the last century.
Catherine belongs to the old noble family of Schlegel. Her father, Vladimir Solotsinsky, is a well-known Soviet and Russian diplomat who headed the department of the Asia Department at the Foreign Ministry. In the 1990s, he served as ambassador to Turkey. It was there, in Ankara, that 14-year-old Katya met Dmitry Peskov.
At that time, the newly arrived embassy employee was 23. But neither the serious age difference nor Peskov's marital status (Dmitry was already married to Anastasia Budennoy, was expecting his first child) could not stop the young people. The stormy romance lasted four years. In 1994, Ekaterina and Dmitry signed. The couple have three joint children: Elizabeth, Miku, Denis. In 2012, the Peskovs' marriage broke up. The initiator of the divorce was Katya, who learned about her husband's infidelity.
In the spring of 2017, Catherine began to go out, accompanied by a mysterious brown-haired woman. With a new boyfriend, she was seen at the Theater of Nations at the play "Audience", in the restaurant "Crystal Rum Baccarat". It is known that the name of Peskova's companion is Andrey Grigoriev.
January 19, 2017, 18:07Ekaterina Solotsinskaya, the ex-wife of Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of Vladimir Putin, was born in 1976, in the family of a diplomat.
This woman belongs to the category of those who were lucky from birth. Since childhood, Ekaterina Solotsinskaya did not have to think about fighting for status and earning a reputation with bitter tears and hard work. She was born in the family of a diplomat, and the roots of her family go back centuries to the noble family of Schlegel. The daughter of the Turkish Ambassador from the first days of her life had a high status, which she repeatedly mentioned in an interview. However, Ekaterina Solotsinskaya does not boast of this status, but rather uses it as one of the reasons for her position in life.
From girl to wife
It is worth noting that Catherine was brought up not just in the family of a diplomat, but in an intelligent family of a diplomat. Ekaterina Solotsinskaya claims that all her relatives were educated at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations. In addition, the representative of the noble family was not isolated from society, which means that she received comprehensive development.
It is also worth noting that Ekaterina Solotsinskaya managed to meet her husband Dmitry at a fairly early age precisely because her father worked for the good of the country at the embassy.
When Katya was 14 years old, Dmitry Peskov, a graduate of the Institute of Asian and African Countries, arrived at the embassy.
By recognition Solotsinskaya, love overtook her immediately at 14 - Peskov was 23, his first wife then gave birth. The husband deprived Catherine of her virginity, after which he said: "Whatever happens, let's swear to each other to be honest."
Solotsinsky Sr. then worked as the head of the 4th and 3rd Asia Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In the year of the wedding, Peskov Jr. was transferred to the 3rd Department of Asia, where he took the post of first first and then second secretary.
Catherine's husband, press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov comes from a secret family. The official life path of his late father is set out in the documents of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation with the utmost laconism. Sergey Peskov was born in 1948, graduated from the Institute of Asian and African Countries at Moscow State University in 1972, in 1987 he wanted to enter the diplomatic service. Despite his age, he ended up in high positions in the central apparatus of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was an ambassador to Pakistan and the Sultanate of Oman.
In what institutions Peskov Sr. served the Motherland until the age of 39 remains a mystery. A similar style is characteristic of most biographies of KGB foreign intelligence officers who worked under diplomatic cover.
Dmitry Peskov joined the press service of the Presidential Administration almost simultaneously with the move of Vladimir Putin to the Kremlin. Prior to that, the son of Sergei Peskov was also listed as a diplomat, but colleagues, acquaintances and members of the presidential journalistic pool stubbornly suspected that the young man came from state security agencies.
Dmitry Peskov was first married to Anastasia Budyonny, the granddaughter of Marshal Semyon Budyonny and the daughter of a high-ranking functionary of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, Mikhail Budyonny, concurrently the president of the Russian Equestrian Federation.
Anastasia
The wife was the same age as Peskov, in 1990 their son Nikolai was born.
Nicholas
And at this time, Dmitry had a fateful meeting with Catherine.
For some reason, hard times suddenly came for the newlyweds after the wedding with young Katenka.
Ekaterina Solotsinskaya, without any hesitation, says that while the friends of the newlyweds were building their business, Peskov and his student wife were forced to work at night as private cab drivers, depriving themselves of the pleasure of at least some entertainment. Dmitry and Ekaterina earned 35 rubles per night in order to be able to somehow stay afloat in this difficult time.
Ekaterina Solotsinskaya. Everyday life of a diplomat's wife
At the end of her studies at the Department of Philology of Moscow State University, Ekaterina returns to Turkey. However, she returns as the wife of a diplomat, and not as the daughter of an ambassador. This event became the starting point in the harsh everyday life of our heroine, which was not as joyful as it might seem to an ordinary person. It is worth noting that Ekaterina Solotsinskaya was not flattered to spend her days and evenings agonizingly waiting for her husband, who, due to a busy work schedule, could not often be at home. 
The young wife lacked warmth, joint evenings when the whole family got together, children's holidays. As Ekaterina says, she did not get married in order to get a status, but in order to enjoy how her children grow up, together with her husband, in a cozy family atmosphere.
Return to Moscow
Ekaterina Solotsinskaya managed to return to Moscow. This happened after the diplomat's wife worked in Ankara for 10 years, teaching Russian. Upon their return, the family acquires a house on Rublyovka, striking in its luxury, as well as a business and an expensive car, but as an addition to prosperity and its indicators. At that time, the Peskovs raised three children - a daughter, Elizabeth, and two sons, Mika and Denis.

Ekaterina Solotsinskaya did not sit idle in the capital. Together with her friend Lena, the woman opens a beauty salon called Kale.
Rublevsky weekdays
Ekaterina Solotsinskaya was not too happy to live on Rublyovka. Firstly, there is an urgent need to visit a huge number of parties and similar events. The ex-wife of the diplomat says that invitations to the ruble fees came in batches. It was inconvenient to refuse, but the mother did not want to leave the children either. In addition, life on Rublyovka also affected the character of Catherine. 
The woman has become a lady without sympathy, implacable, domineering and complex. At some point, the woman's mother could not stand it and reproached her daughter for the fact that after moving it became almost impossible to communicate with her normally. However, this did not last too long.
The marriage of Catherine and Dmitry lasted 18 years, until 2012.
The media note that Ekaterina Solotsinskaya herself initiated a divorce from her husband. The reason for the divorce was the betrayal of a diplomat. The woman learned that her act - to devote her life to her husband entirely and completely - was not accepted and appreciated by her husband. Unable to bear this, Catherine could not forgive her husband and insisted on a divorce.
Rebirth from the ashes
After the divorce, Catherine did not forget that she had to live, no matter what. That is why the woman continues to be famous and purposeful. Today, she is known not because of her husband's fame, but because of her own achievements.
Catherine decided to do charity work. In addition, her energy is enough to live in two houses, one of which is located in France. The main reason for this is the children - Elizabeth, the eldest daughter of Catherine, is educated at MGIMO, continuing the family tradition of her mother's family, the sons are also in Moscow. Ekaterina spends most of the week in the capital of Russia in order not to lose the thread of communication with the children and not to disappear from their lives.
She spends her weekends in Paris in the company of her new, and this time real, friends.
Therapy by France
After Ekaterina moved to the "ex" category for Dmitry Peskov, she moved to France. To date, she lives in luxurious apartments, the windows of which allow you to contemplate the Bois de Boulogne and the famous Champs Elysees. In this country, Catherine, unexpectedly for herself, became close to the fourth generation of Russian emigrants, among whom there are descendants of such famous families as the Obolenskys, Uvarovs and Trubetskoys. 
Communication with the intelligent and noble descendants of the nobles of Russia awakened in Solotsinskaya the desire to restore her title - Countess Schlegel. The woman herself repeatedly joked about the sound of a noble title, stating that it was not bad. Catherine found the strength and desire to become a member of the Franco-Russian Dialogue. The side of France in it is supervised by Prince Trubetskoy, and Russia - by Vladimir Yakunin.
Learning from your own mistakes
Life as the wife of a famous diplomat and circling in the hell of Rublyovka among equally famous wives and their idols allowed Catherine to learn some useful lessons for herself. Thanks to Rublev's etiquette, when you are interesting when you have a status, a woman firmly decided to start life in France from scratch. And, having moved to Paris, she presented herself to everyone she met, quite simply and ordinary - “Katya is from Moscow, I don’t do anything”. Despite this, Catherine's entourage very quickly began to consist of poets, descendants of the nobles of Russia, who, unlike Rublev's "friends", were not interested in her status, but in that rich inner world and intelligence that Solotsinskaya was endowed with. In today's interviews, the woman boldly declares that France is the place where you can regenerate your soul in the best way and breathe in again with a full chest. As Catherine says, France is a country in which people begin to live after forty. And if a woman from Russia was moved by an asphalt paver of fate, then Paris will become the most valuable and most effective medicine for spiritual wounds.
Dmitry Sergeevich Peskov is a world famous politician. It is clear that people show considerable interest in him and his personal life. After the sensational scandal with the watch of the press secretary of the presidential administration and the magnificent wedding with Tatyana Navka, who fought off her fiancé from the mother of three children, interest in Peskov's personality increased even more.
In the article, we will introduce readers closer to his very first wife, Anastasia Budyonny. After all, he did not live long with her. However, the couple managed to have a common child, who has recently begun to appear in the media more and more often.
Wife choice
Dmitry Peskov does not come from a simple family. From childhood, he studied at prestigious specialized schools, studied languages and traveled a lot around different countries of the world. Naturally, he was looking for a wife for himself not among ordinary people, but with a big name. The granddaughter of Semyon Budyonny was quite suitable for this purpose. We remind young readers who Budyonny is and why he is so famous.
Semyon Mikhailovich was one of the most famous military leaders, he commanded a cavalry army and became almost the first marshal of the country. It showed itself during the Civil War. Many films were made about this glorious hero and his Budenovites. Also called Budyonovka hat of the war years. Semyon Mikhailovich was also advertised by propaganda programs on radio and television. He was truly a folk hero and had a rather big name.
Of course, young Dmitry could not pass by such a prominent girl. In addition, knowing his character and disposition, it is quite understandable why he drew attention to Anastasia Budyonny. On the Internet they write that she was still that "Budyonny". The character of the girl was fighting, to match the famous grandfather.
Anastasia's parents
Anastasia Budyonny's father was the youngest son of the legendary commander. Mikhail Budyonny himself also held a good position in the country and worked as a high-ranking functionary of the Ministry of Foreign Trade. And he was also the president of the national Equestrian Federation concurrently.
Nastya's mother Ines Volkova married Mikhail in 1967. A year later, they had a girl. They did not live together for long: after five years they quarreled and parted, since Mikhail liked to walk on the side. In the end, he left forever for another woman. Ines Sergeevna herself raised Nastya as best she could. Since childhood, the girl had a difficult character: she always considered herself independent and did everything she wanted. Although she received a good education and worked as a translator in Intourist. In Soviet times, it was prestigious.
Life of the young
Soon Anastasia Budennaya met a young Foreign Ministry employee Dmitry Peskov, and already in 1988 the couple signed. Two years later, the newlyweds had a son, who was named Nikolai. By that time, Dmitry Peskov graduated from the IISA Institute, where he specialized in the countries of Asia and Africa. Then he was sent to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the USSR.
Naturally, the high position in the country of his father helped the son in the distribution. Everyone, of course, understands that it is difficult for a simple, even the most intelligent specialist to get into the highest echelons of power. And the father of our hero was a famous diplomat, he worked in the countries of the Middle East and North Africa.
In 1990, when a son is born to Anastasia Budyonny and Dmitry Peskov, a young employee of the Ministry receives a new position. He is appointed secretary to the attache and referent. He further worked at the Turkish Embassy, as he was fluent in Turkish.
Divorce in the family
Disagreements in the family occurred constantly, since Anastasia Budennaya did not have the qualities of a calm and submissive wife. She loved noisy parties with loud screams and singing drinking songs with a guitar. At first, Dmitry really liked such a cheerful wife, but the young man grew up in the family of a high official ... In addition, he often had to visit Eastern countries, where the role of a woman is rather modest.
Particularly acute was the question of the behavior of the wife while working at the embassy in Turkey, which, although it is considered a European country, traditionally women behave modestly there. Granddaughter Anastasia Budennaya has always had an independent and unbridled character. She was not created to be a quiet mistress in the kitchen and a calm keeper of the hearth. She could not understand why she needed to behave differently in Turkey.
Therefore, constant conflicts between spouses led to a break. Peskov was ashamed of his wife's behavior. He wanted his couple to be an example of an ideal family. Judging by the stories of Nastya herself, they were constantly shadowed. After all, her husband held a high position abroad, and she did not like it when she was limited in some way. Therefore, already in 1994, the couple officially broke up. Nastya took her son Nikolai with her.
Life in England
The turbulent life of Peskov's first wife, Anastasia Budyonny, continued on. After the divorce, the girl with the child moves to a permanent place of residence in England. She always dreamed of living abroad. And now, having received freedom, he decides to move.
Settling in the small town of Crawley in southeastern England, she soon marries an English businessman who gives his surname to her son Nicholas. But the peaceful life of the four Choles did not last long. Soon the couple also broke up. It is not known exactly how many times Nastya met and diverged from her husbands.
Officially, she was once again married to Christopher Drake, to whom she bore children. In total, Nastya, in addition to Nikolai, also had five children from English spouses. With Christopher, the woman also had a difficult relationship. It is known that they often quarreled. There is even evidence that Nastya wrote statements to the police department against her husband about beating during scandals: he often kicked his wife out of the apartment, throwing her things out the window.
Loss of home
It is also known that in 2011, the personal life of Anastasia Budyonny finally cracked, and the woman left with her younger children for Turkey to her father. After staying there for some time, she returns to Crawley, but Christopher Drake does not let her go home. As a result, she is forced to temporarily settle with compassionate neighbors. Anastasia repeatedly applied to the police and the municipal service with a request to provide her with housing, complaining about her husband.
However, the authorities did not find Christopher guilty, but, on the contrary, accused Nastya of inappropriate behavior. The woman refused the proposed social housing, deciding to return to Moscow to her apartment on But it wasn’t there ... Let's continue the story about Nastya a little later. Now we will tell the reader about Peskov's son Nikolai Choles.
Hooliganism in England
Numerous children of Anastasia Budyonny lived with her in England. The eldest son Nikolai was not distinguished by good behavior. There is evidence that the guy did not receive any education and sometimes traded in banditry, taking away money and phones from passers-by. For this, he was repeatedly detained by the police. In the end, he was convicted.
After serving several months in an English prison, the young man decided not to play with fate anymore, but to return to his famous and rich father in Russia. After arriving at home in 2010, the guy settles with his grandmother.
In 2012, having served in the missile forces, Nikolai, not without the participation of his father, begins his career, working as a sports correspondent for Russia Today. Nikolai got both an expensive car and money for vacations abroad. Dmitry Peskov never offended his numerous children from different wives, helping them financially.
Relationship with grandmother
Living with his grandmother in a social four-room apartment, issued by the state for use by an outstanding commander, Nikolai forces his grandmother to privatize it. Together, they file a lawsuit, completely restricting access to housing for a bad mother. Since Anastasia Budyonny, whose biography we describe in the article, still had a USSR passport (she did not change it to a new Russian one), she could not start decorating the apartment in time. The grandson (together with his grandmother) proved in court that he had not seen his mother since the age of 16, she had never come from England to Russia, she had not paid rent for all these years.
Therefore, the court ordered her to be discharged. Thus, Nastya was left without housing in Moscow. And grandmother, apparently, is very fond of drinking alcoholic beverages. Once, even she wrote a statement to Nikolai about the beatings to the police. But the grandson explained that the conflict was caused by the old woman's intoxication, who likes to run amok when she drinks.
Relationship with father
Dmitry Peskov treats all children well and, according to their abilities and efforts, gives them a ticket to a good life. Since Nikolai's mother in the last years of her life did not show any interest in the life of one of her many offspring (she led a very active personal life), the son's desire to live near his father is quite justified. Moreover, the father is not anyone, but Peskov himself.
It is also known from various sources that Nikolai, the son of Dmitry Sergeevich's first wife, is on friendly terms with his brothers and sisters. So, you can often find photos of a joint vacation of a father with children in various publications.
In the photo, Nikolai and his father are resting on the river along with his younger sister, the daughter of Peskov's second wife, Lisa. Her mother gave birth to three children to Dmitry Sergeevich and now, after a divorce, lives in Paris.
Few people know what Anastasia Budennaya is doing now. Unfortunately, she died. The causes of death are unknown. But knowing the way of life of a woman, one can only guess about them.
