The stars carefully hide their connection.
Loyal fans feel like they know literally everything about their idols. But this is far from the case, and even celebrities about whom they say “with their hearts wide open” still find ways to surprise their fans. For example, do you know who Nikita Mikhalkov’s great-grandfather was?
The great Russian artist Vasily Surikov. It’s unlikely that they wrote about this in the “yellow gloss”. For some reason, the director hid the truth about his relative from the public.
Nothing is known about Larisa Dolina’s sister. Or rather, much is known: she is a popular and incredibly beautiful actress in Russia. But the fact that Irina Apeksimova is related to Dolina was still not known to the general public.
The actress and singer are sisters, however, they are second cousins. Nevertheless, communication is maintained, and quite close at that. They see each other as soon as possible and become family friends.
