The star of the films “Bumbarash” and “Night Watch” Valery Zolotukhin died in 2013 from a brain tumor. The celebrity left two sons from different women – the first wife Nina Shatskaya and mistress Irina Lindt. In addition, Zolotukhin had a third child – Sergey – from his second wife, violinist Tamara Guseva. This heir to the actor committed suicide in 2007.
In the first marriage with a colleague Nina Shatskaya, the first-born Denis was born to a celebrity. Valery Zolotukhin prophesied a brilliant career in cinema for his son, but fate decreed otherwise. Zolotukhin Jr. left the directing department of VGIK and entered the theological seminary.
At the academy for future priests, Denis Zolotukhin found a life partner. He fell in love with a simple girl, Alla, who worked in the canteen of the seminary. Valery Sergeevich and Nina Sergeevna initially opposed these relations. Apparently, celebrities wanted to see someone from their circle in their daughters-in-law. But Zolotukhin Jr. stood his ground and, as life showed, he was not mistaken. An idyll reigns in the house of Alla and Denis. The priest and mother have six children. The wife of Zolotukhin Jr. devoted herself entirely to her husband and beloved children.
The couple’s eldest daughter, Olga, followed in her father’s footsteps. She serves as regent at the Intercession Convent. Another granddaughter of Soviet cinema stars, Tatyana, chose the profession of a lawyer. The son of Zolotukhin Jr., Alexei, is getting a higher education. He will be a pediatrician. Heir Nikon recently served in the army and is now preparing to enter the institute. The youngest child of the famous family – a girl – is still in school.
Another granddaughter of Valery Zolotukhin, Masha, graduated from the Konstantin Raikin Higher School of Performing Arts. After graduation, the girl works in the Satyricon Theater and acts in films. Recently, the star successor appeared in Sergei Ursulyak’s film The Righteous. Colleagues admire Maria. Zolotukhin’s granddaughter is modest and strictly brought up.
“She entered a budget place at the Konstantin Raikin School of Performing Arts. With whom did you prepare for admission? On one’s own. And together with his father – with Denis. Masha was embarrassed to prepare for admission under the guidance of her grandmother (actress Nina Shatskaya – ed.). We told Nina Sergeevna only when she entered, ”Alla, Valery Zolotukhin’s daughter-in-law, told reporters.
