“I didn’t leave anyone”: Evgeny Tsyganov about breaking up with his wife, who bore him seven children

______________________________

On the eve of the 43-year-old actor Evgeny Tsyganov became the hero of the new issue of the YouTube show “Caution: Sobchak“. In a dialogue with the TV presenter, he frankly spoke about the breakup with his wife Irina Leonova, around which there were many unpleasant rumors.

According to media reports, Tsyganov left Leonova when she was pregnant with her seventh common child. His new chosen one was the actress Yulia Snigir, who at that time was also in a position – she was expecting a son from the actor, who was named Fedor. The boy is now 6 years old. According to Tsyganov, the press misinterpreted the reasons for the divorce from Leonova.

As such, I did not have a divorce, and I did not leave anyone, as it is formulated, it does not matter, children or a woman. For me, these are strange wordings in themselves, because these are dear, close to me people with whom we exist together. We have common problems, we have common affairs, some movements. This is really a nasty and incorrect wording. For me personally. The most important lie is that there is some kind of separation. I do not deny that nothing happened: I am not me, and the hut is not mine. On the contrary, we are in excellent relations, we communicate. This is life, it is arranged the way it is arranged, – he explained.

However, Tsyganov evaded answering when Sobchak asked him to tell the details. The actor noted that gossip about himself and the personal lives of his friends are of little interest to him.

I am the last to find out the details about our mutual acquaintances. He even cursed with friends who made a TV program, told them: “How dare you write about Yulia Peresild, that she has children … Why say that Alexei Uchitel has anything to do with this, what right do you have?”. This is the last thing that interests me.

Recall that Evgeny Tsyganov is perhaps the most famous father of Russian cinema with many children. With Irina Leonova, he lived together for almost 10 years. From this civil marriage, the actor had seven children. For the first time, Eugene became a father in 2005, when their daughter Polina was born. A year later, Leonova gave her husband a son, Nikita, and already in 2009, son Andrei and daughter Sofia were born. In 2014, another replenishment took place in the family – son George, and a little later they became parents for the seventh time, when the last common child of the actors was born – daughter Vera.

The eighth child, the son of Fedor, was born to Tsyganov by actress Yulia Snigir, whom he met on the set of the series “Where the Motherland Begins” in 2014 and almost immediately began an affair.

Note that Tsyganov supports Leonova financially and maintains contact with all his children from previous relationships. He regularly takes the offspring to the premieres of his films and is happy to share their photos on social networks.
