Yulia Nikolaevna Abdulova (nee Meshina) was born on July 30, 1975 in Neftegorsk, Sakhalin region, and spent her childhood in Nikolaev, Ukraine. In her youth, she received a law degree in Ukhta, where she moved with her mother after her parents’ divorce.

Yulia Abdulova and Alexander Abdulov
Uncle Meshina was an influential person who led a large enterprise. In 1998, a criminal case was opened against him, which was closed due to insufficient evidence. Just after this story, Yulia’s father abandoned the family, leaving Nikolaev, but her daughter continued to love him and never condemned him.
Galina Lobanova
In 1994, during a cruise on the ship “Fedor Shalyapin,” Alexander Abdulov drew attention to the young, pretty Galina Lobanova. She couldn’t resist the actor’s charms either. The Honored Artist of the Russian Federation and the pretty blonde began to spend a lot of time together. A romantic relationship began. Alexander's love was serious - he moved the girl from Rostov to Moscow and lived with her for eight years. Lobanova really wanted to become the artist’s legal wife, but Abdulov, despite a long relationship, never made her the long-awaited proposal. The girl’s persistence became the main reason for their separation. After the breakup, Lobanova went to the USA and got married.

Career
In the early years of her biography, the girl moved to Moscow, where she worked as an office manager for Jewish entrepreneur Shabtai Kalmanovich, whose fortune was estimated at $3 billion. The businessman was friends with Joseph Kobzon, Alla Pugacheva, Alexander Rosenbaum. Thanks to him, Yulia was familiar with producer Igor Markov, and the owner of fashion boutiques, Irina Lugovaya, also helped establish influential connections.
Personal life
In 2002, Meshina married Alexey Ignatenko, the son of the director of the ITAR-TASS news agency. In those same years, singer Sergei Trofimov, who was also married at that time, fell in love with Yulia. The woman cannot say that she reciprocated, although the musician left his wife for her sake. In the end, he lost both of them, but was not upset, because the suffering helped him write better songs.
I met Alexander Abdulov in 2005 on an airplane, when the artist and his friends went to Kamchatka to go hunting and fishing. Soon the beauty divorced her husband and left for Odessa. The artist, through director Elena Chuprakova, invited Yulia to St. Petersburg, but was refused. It was said that the man must come for her himself if he wants.

Yulia Abdulova and Alexander Abdulov with their daughter
The lovers got married in 2006, celebrated the celebration in the Central House of Writers, journalists were not allowed in, not a single photograph of the wedding appeared in the newspapers. Her parents did not approve of the change in Yulia’s personal life; they were embarrassed by the age difference with her new husband and the artist’s scandalous reputation. Nevertheless, Abdulova gave Alexander Gavrilovich a daughter, Evgenia.
Unfortunately, the actor was soon diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. The couple tried all means, turning to traditional medicine and a Kyrgyz shaman, but to no avail. Three days after celebrating the onset of 2008, Alexander Gavrilovich died at the National Medical Research Center for Cardiovascular Surgery named after A. N. Bakulev. After Abdulov’s death, Abdulov’s wife fell into depression for a long time and even became addicted to alcohol, but her loved ones brought her back to life.
In 2009, entrepreneur Alexei Orlov courted Abdulova, but could not stand the comparison with the great artist. Julia fought for several years for her husband’s inheritance with the actor’s brother Robert and mother Lyudmila Alexandrovna, and paid $800 thousand so that the property remained undivided and unsold. She got a Moscow apartment and a country house in Vnukovo.

There is no need to explain who Alexander Abdulov . He was so popular that students from other cities saved up their scholarship money for months to buy a train ticket to Moscow and stand near the service entrance to wait for the living Abdulov to pass. Women from 13 to 93 years old loved him, all of them. “Golden boy”, “sex symbol” - whatever his name was. He didn’t consider himself golden, he said, “I’m a hooligan in the good sense of the word.”
Abdulov did not consider himself a sex symbol and wanted to be perceived only as an actor. However, after his first leading role - in the film “An Ordinary Miracle” - he gained a whole army of fans. Abdulov did not like to talk about his personal life. He was and remains the ideal man: stately, bright, romantic, with incredible energy. People fell in love with Alexander Abdulov to the point of self-denial, they adored him, and he reciprocated the women’s feelings...
The image of a male knight, which Alexander Abdulov has embodied all these years on stage and in films, still awes the fair half of our country. Thousands of women are still in love with the actor to this day.
But the girl Natasha from Fergana was the first to win Abdulov’s heart.
Because of Natasha he ran away from home
In Fergana, almost all of her classmates were in love with young Sasha Abdulov. Of course, he sang Beatles songs so well with a guitar. Moreover, despite his hooligan character, Alexander behaved like a real gentleman in relation to the girls and never offended them. They themselves made dates for him, invited him to the cinema, to dance.
For the first time, Alexander truly fell in love at the age of 14 - with his classmate Natalya Nesmeyanova. The sympathy turned out to be mutual, although sometimes the lovers fought.
“After such quarrels, Sasha often asked us to call Natasha and tell her how good he is and that they urgently need to make peace,” Abdulov’s childhood friend Rustam Madaliev told KP. “He was always very worried about their scandals. Once Sashka had a serious quarrel with Natasha and even ran away from home. Spent the night on the sports ground. And we fed Sasha with sandwiches that his mother Lyudmila Aleksandrovna prepared

“He came to her when he was already in his first year at GITIS. He appeared all dressed up, with a bouquet of flowers. “Guys,” he says, “I’m going on a date with Natasha. Check out my suit and shirt." He really looked stunning, but his sandals didn't look right with his new suit. I remember the whole house was looking for other shoes for him. It was difficult to find, its size is huge. He went to see her. He came gloomy. He invited her with him, but she refused to go.
Natalya got married and left for Volgograd, where she now lives with her husband Sergei Rogozin and son Evgeniy. She has been married for almost 35 years and says that she and her husband live very happily.
— You know, when I saw him in the movies, I still recognized my classmate Sashka Abdulov in the nationally famous artist. His movie characters have the same antics, gait, and expression in their eyes that Sasha had in childhood. He even gestured with his hands the same way as at school.
— Have you ever regretted that you didn’t follow Abdulov to Moscow?
- We were children. How can you do such a stupid thing! Although he called, it was like a joke; his proposal was not seriously considered.
— When Abdulov became a famous artist, did you meet?
— He came to Volgograd with the theater. My husband bought flowers, tickets, and we went to the show. I went to Sasha’s dressing room. We talked for about fifteen minutes... Sasha introduced me to his wife, Irina Alferova. A charming woman, such nice people are rare to meet, she was almost without makeup, very natural. I told Sasha: “Abdulov, you always had good taste”...
Her name was Tatyana
1973 Abdulov, who dreamed of an acting career, entered GITIS on his second attempt. Tatyana was a medical student and worked part-time at a maternity hospital on Taganka. Alexander first saw Tatiana at a student disco.
The romance with a tall, slender blonde developed rapidly - because of his hobby, Alexander often missed classes, but as an excuse he always brought a certificate of illness. One day in the dean’s office they noticed the stamp that was on the certificates - there was a maternity hospital stamp there! A scandal broke out, and at a Komsomol meeting the question of Abdulov’s expulsion from the institute was raised.
However, the first time they forgave him and limited themselves to issuing a severe reprimand, and Alexander, as soon as the meeting ended, rushed to dear Tatyana.
An unpleasant surprise awaited Sasha: he found his beloved girl in the arms of an unknown man. What he saw so impressed the impressionable young man that, upon returning to the hostel, he opened his veins.
It was an accident that saved the day: Abdulov’s classmate Alexander Myagchenkov returned from class early that day because one of the teachers was sick. Myagchenkov and his friend broke down the door to the room, and Abdulov was saved.
After this incident, Alexander did not meet with Tatyana again. She still works in that same maternity hospital, but refuses any comments about her past. Abdulov himself spoke about that story: “He was a fool!”
American spy
After an unsuccessful romance, Alexander plunged headlong into his studies, and it bore fruit - the bright student was noticed by Lenkom director Mark Zakharov and invited him to join the troupe of the famous theater. Oleg Yankovsky, Inna Churikova, Tatyana Peltzer, Evgeny Leonov already worked there... Abdulov became a star after the first performance (“He wasn’t on the list”).
The young actor instantly had a mass of fans who were on duty at the theater exit, filling his mailbox with love notes and dreaming of meeting their idol.
Abdulov became interested in a young beautiful American woman, Karen (he called her Katya), vice-president of a large Moscow bank. The romance, as usual, was stormy and passionate, things were heading towards a wedding, but one day Abdulov was summoned to the KGB. State security officials asked the actor to obtain the information they needed through Katya. Alexander refused and found the strength to break off his relationship with the beautiful girl. Soon Katya was declared a CIA agent and expelled from the USSR.
“Don’t part with your loved ones”
With each new film, the number of Alexander’s admirers grew exponentially. Abdulov ignored the hysteria around him - his heart was occupied by the beautiful Irina Alferova, who came to work at Lenkom in 1976.
With his characteristic passion, Alexander confessed his feelings to Irina, but, to his great surprise, she did not immediately reciprocate. Shortly before meeting Alexander, the actress broke up with her loved one - Bulgarian businessman Boyko Gyurov - and alone raised her daughter Ksenia, born in 1974.
But Abdulov fell in love for real and was ready to wait for the favor of the desired woman as long as necessary.
Irina Alferova is the femme fatale in Abdulov’s life. After divorcing her, the actor vowed that he would never marry again.
He received consent to marriage during the Lenkom tour in Yerevan. Alexander invited Irina for a walk in the park and proposed to her. “If you carry me across the entire park in my arms, I’ll answer!” - said Irina. Alexander fulfilled her request without hesitation.
Returning to Moscow, Alexander and Irina officially registered their relationship and secretly got married. Abdulov adored Irina’s daughter Ksenia and raised her as his own. The actor acted a lot, played leading roles in the theater, and after a few years he was given a one-room apartment. He was enthusiastically engaged in renovations and arranging a corner for Ksenia.
Together with Irina, Alexander experienced a family drama: when the actor was only 27 years old, his father Gavriil Danilovich Abdulov died, and two months later Alexander’s brother Vladimir was killed...
Abdulov himself was on the verge of death: an attempt was made on his life near his apartment. A fan in love with Alferova threw a massive ax at the actor. Abdulov was saved by his intuition - he looked back and managed to jump to the side. The Abdulov-Alferov couple was considered the most beautiful and happiest in Soviet cinema.
However, the characters of Irina and Alexander turned out to be too different: Irina was always distinguished by a calm disposition, while Abdulov was a gambling person, adored noisy companies, was always rushing somewhere, striving for something, skydiving, scuba diving, horseback riding, playing playing cards and roulette, he was easily attracted to beautiful women... A calm family life was not for him. After living together for 17 years, Abdulov and Alferova decided to leave.
Alexander left his wife and daughter an apartment, and for several years he huddled in the dressing room of his native Lenkom. Surprisingly, Abdulov did not officially end his marriage with Alferova almost until his death: the actor asked for a divorce only in 2007, after the birth of his daughter Zhenechka.
Faithful friends
After breaking up with Irina, a young ballerina Galina Lobanova appeared in Abdulov’s life. She was able to keep the actor near her for eight whole years.
Perhaps she would have lived with the popular actor even longer if she had not insisted on an official marriage: Abdulov categorically refused to put a new stamp in his passport.
The break with Galina was long and painful - Alexander deliberately overloaded himself with work in order to be at home less often. As with the first breakup, he nobly left Galina a large apartment in the center of Moscow and a car.
- I have never cheated on the women I love. It’s just that our relationship with Galya has exhausted itself,” Abdulov once admitted in an interview.
Young journalist Larisa Shteinman helped Abdulov survive the depression that set in after his breakup with Galina - she came to interview the People’s Artist and captivated him not only with her beauty, but also with her intelligence and tact.
Paradoxically, Alexander, who always disliked representatives of the press, lived with the “shark of the pen” for two years. Larisa turned out to be jealous, the couple often quarreled loudly... After one of the scandals, Abdulov changed the locks in his apartment - this is how he put an end to his relationship with Larisa.
But even before Alferova, Alexander was passionately in love with the dancer and actress Tatyana Leibel, with whom he maintained a good relationship until the end. Leibel emigrated to Canada, but sometimes came to Russia and met with Abdulov.
Dancer Tatyana Leibel met him when he was still unknown to anyone. According to her, he was a very romantic suitor.
“He and I had amazing love!” Such love that all of Moscow was jealous and went crazy! It was such a crazy relationship! Maybe envy ruined this love. We loved each other all the time. Regardless of any women... I know them all. He introduced me to everyone, except... I don’t really know his last wife, Yulia. On the 60th birthday of actor Nikonenko, Sasha introduced me to her. Beautiful girl. When I found out that she gave birth to a child, I said, well done for getting married. We had a good relationship with him until his last breath.
last love
At the beginning of 2006, a pretty young brunette began to be noticed next to Abdulov. Alexander Gavrilovich introduced her as his niece, but already in February at the Spirit of Fire festival (the actor was one of the founders of the film forum), Abdulov stopped hiding the truth and called Yulia his bride.
The rather large age difference (22 years) did not bother the lovers. A new feeling inspired Abdulov, who had not been feeling entirely healthy for several years - everyone knew what torment a stomach ulcer was causing him.
In the spring of 2007, Alexander and Yulia had a daughter, Zhenechka. This event changed Abdulov incredibly. He affectionately called his baby “Slippers.”
The actor’s theater colleague Alexander Karnaushkin recalls: “We were sitting in the same dressing room, and I remember how he constantly called, asked, and lisped. He was so touching at that moment...”
A few months after the birth of his daughter, Abdulov went to star in the film “With Love from Nowhere, or Merry Funeral.” According to the script, Abdulov's hero dies of cancer at the end of the film. Alexander didn’t believe in omens - it’s just a role!
Having completed work in the film, Abdulov enthusiastically began filming his own project “Vykrest”. Filming took place in Crimea - heat, overload... The actor became ill right on the set, and he was taken by ambulance to the hospital. The emergency stomach surgery was successful, but during the operation, doctors discovered much more serious problems with Abdulov. The actor secretly flew to Israel and there he learned a terrible diagnosis - stage four lung cancer. There is no chance of salvation.
Alexander believed in his lucky star and hoped for a miracle until the very end. “Sasha reassured us all the time,” recalls his friend Leonid Yarmolnik. “He treated this illness like a runny nose, like a cold, although he knew that he was hopeless.”
Julia was next to Alexander until the last day, called his friends, asked to visit the actor. The table in the house was fully set every day: Abdulov was always an incredibly hospitable, generous host and adored his guests.
Alexander did not leave a will.
“Sasha believed that everything would be fine,” said Yulia. “How many times in his life did stories happen when he was on the brink, but he always came out victorious.”
