Not everyone understood her choice.
The best actors of their generation starred in Eldar Ryazanov’s satirical comedy Garage. Surely everyone remembers the thieves’ beauty Marina, Smirnovsky’s daughter. This role was played by the People’s Artist of Russia Olga Ostroumova.
On the set of Garage, the actress met her future husband Valentin Gaft – he played the chairman of the cooperative. But at that moment, none of them could even think that a happy long-term marriage awaited them. Then Olga Mikhailovna was a real beauty with a sophisticated appearance, and Gaft was already in solid years. But the actor paid special attention to Ostroumova and later admitted that she became a bright spot in this film.
Fate brought them together again a few years later. This time, Gaft did not miss his chance and invited a colleague on a date. In 1996, they entered into a marriage, which lasted until the death of Valentin Iosifovich.
The fans of the actress were indignant: what did such a luxurious woman find in this bald grandfather with a hook-shaped nose? But everything was decided by the charisma and incredible charm of Gaft, before which Olga Mikhailovna could not resist.
