Movies
Simultaneously with her work in the theater, the artist made successful steps in Russian cinema. The cinematic biography of Anastasia Makeeva started with a small role in the film “Lawyer”. This debut turned out to be successful and opened the actress to viewers and directors.

Soon Nastya was lucky enough to work with the master of Russian cinema, Karen Shakhnazarov. At first, she auditioned for a cameo role in the drama “A Horseman Called Death,” but the director approved Anastasia for the main cast. Makeeva adopted experience of working on the set from Russian cinema stars Andrei Panin and Ksenia Rappoport.
The period from 2004 to 2007 was fruitful. At this time, Anastasia Makeeva starred in 9 films, each of which became a stepping stone to new achievements. The most striking works of this period are the films “And Still I Love...”, “Countdown” and “Home Sweet Home”.

Makeeva’s acting talent was clearly demonstrated in the crime drama “Cherkizona. Disposable People,” which was released in 2010. Nastya appeared on the screen together with young Russian stars Dmitry Miller and Konstantin Solovyov.
Today, Anastasia Makeeva’s filmography consists of dozens of TV series and full-length films, in many of which the talented artist got key roles. Among the memorable film projects of recent years in which Anastasia Makeeva starred are the films “Mom under Contract”, “The Sniffer” and “Mannequin”.
Personal life
Anastasia Makeeva met her love soon after arriving in the capital. She met Moscow businessman Vitaly Fedorov, who was 6 years older than the girl. The couple lived together for 4 years, but Makeeva and Fedorov never reached the registry office. According to Nastya, Vitaly loved her, but the young actress lacked Mexican passions and drive in this relationship.

The couple broke up. The separation was accelerated by Makeeva’s new romance with director Vladimir Nakhabtsev, who turned out to be 17 years older. But the man turned out to be a womanizer, and Nastya soon found out about his infidelities. The girl did not want to put up with such an attitude towards herself, so she immediately left her unfaithful lover. She decided to start life from scratch. It was then that she met a new admirer, whom Anastasia Makeeva hastened to marry.
The first official marriage with actor Pyotr Kislov, whom the girl met on the set of the TV series “Network,” lasted 7 months. But almost immediately the newlyweds realized that they were in a hurry with the stamps in their passports, and filed for divorce. Both consider this marriage a mistake and speak unflatteringly about each other when journalists ask about the past. The divorce of Anastasia Makeeva and the events accompanying it did not leave the pages of the tabloids for a long time, until they were “interrupted” by a new news feed.

In the summer of 2010, the model and actress starred in a candid photo shoot for XXL magazine. The men turned their gaze more closely to the sexy girl, but in the crowd of fans, Anastasia Makeeva singled out her colleague, the son of the famous Lyubov Polishchuk. The relationship with actor Alexei Makarov lasted several years and was remembered for many scandals, but it never developed into an official marriage. The last straw for the girl was the moment when, during a vacation in Tunisia in 2008, Makarov, in a fit of jealousy, raised his hand to her.
Anastasia Makeeva experienced the break with Alexei painfully. In addition, she suffered another blow of fate - her 27-year-old brother Daniil suddenly died from meningitis. Nastya was saved from terrible depression by new love.

Makeeva met the actor and composer Gleb Matveychuk at the conservatory, at a master class on vocals: due to stress, she began to have problems with her voice. Gleb invited the singer to his lessons, where she could listen to how he practices. This acquaintance grew into a serious relationship, and in August 2010 Gleb Matveychuk and Anastasia Makeeva got married.
But a beautiful wedding did not guarantee a happy personal life for the spouses. They often quarreled and made up. Matveychuk and Makeeva lived together for 6 years, and all this time they dreamed of children. Perhaps the baby could have turned just a couple into a real and strong family, but this did not happen. The husband never became a support for Anastasia, and later the girl frankly admitted that she lived Gleb’s life and problems, and his career always came first.

In 2021, the couple announced their divorce. The official reason for the separation of the spouses was the constant employment of the artists.
Despite the failures in the relationship, the artist did not give up her dream of meeting a man with whom she could give birth and raise children and wait for grandchildren. But now Anastasia Makeeva claims that she doesn’t even look towards her fellow artists or musicians.
Anastasia Makeeva and Gleb Matveychuk broke up
In September 2021, viewers were surprised to see the joint performance of Anastasia Makeeva and Gleb Matveychuk in the new program “Property of the Republic.” The couple sang the beautiful song “Flowers in the Snow,” touchingly holding hands and exchanging tender glances. As it turned out, there is no talk of any reunion; the program was simply delayed from airing for a year.
In May 2021, after breaking up with Gleb, Anastasia Makeeva on her personal Instagram page came out in defense of her ex-husband, about whom rumors had spread in tabloid publications and social networks. For example, some ill-wishers claimed that the couple broke up due to the husband’s homosexual preferences, which Makeeva allegedly admitted to.

Anastasia publicly denied that she had said anything similar and asked to leave her and Gleb alone.
“He is the best man in the world, we just became different,” the artist wrote on the microblog.
Anastasia is engaged in active self-PR. Makeeva has personal profiles on social networks. In addition to Makeeva’s personal photos, advertising posts also appear on her Instagram account. The girl also created a channel on YouTube, where all the actress’s performances on television, series and films with her participation, as well as personal videos are collected.
Anastasia Makeeva now
Now the actress is in no hurry to get married, although another chosen one has already appeared in her life, whom Makeeva has not yet introduced to her fans. She recently moved into a new apartment, which had been undergoing renovation for 3 years. In her new home, Anastasia was accompanied by her four-legged pets – 2 Spitz dogs and her cat Roxy.
The actress does not pursue success on the screen, so she films in exceptional cases and only with her favorite directors. In 2021, Anastasia again played in the film by maestro Karen Shakhnazarov, in his film adaptation of Anna Karenina.

Makeeva embodied the image of Betsy Tverskaya on the screen. Work soon followed in the detective series “Caviar”, where Pavel Maikov, Daria Moroz, and Igor Sklyar also appeared. The project started on Channel One at the beginning of 2021. The musical family film “New Year’s Trouble,” which preceded its premiere during the 2018 New Year holidays, could not do without Makeeva.

Who is Nastya Makeeva’s husband?
Then for a long time Anastasia did not advertise her personal life. In the summer of 2021, the actress even announced a casting call for suitors, but apparently, the real betrothed appeared much later.
The wedding of Anastasia and her lover took place in November last year. His name is Alexander Sakovich and he is a successful and very wealthy lawyer, despite his rather young age - he is 5 years younger than Makeeva, he is 33.
Rumor has it that Nastya hid the name of her groom for a long time also for the reason that he was married. Allegedly, the man brought his wife to the capital from Novosibirsk (he himself is also from this city), who had a business established in her hometown and still had friends. And already in the capital I met Nastya.
