The life of a celebrity was very tragic.
Alexey Konsovsky was remembered by the Soviet public as the prince from the fairy tale “Cinderella”. The famous artist won the hearts of millions of fans with his dreamy look and golden hair, but few knew how the artist’s personal life developed outside the set.
The fact is that back in 1938, the artist lost his brother. Dmitry Konsovsky was convicted under the article “Anti-Soviet agitation and propaganda” and died in the camp hospital. The artist’s personal life was not happy either. His relationship with actress Vera Altaiskaya ended very dramatically: the artist suffered from alcohol addiction. And Konsovsky left his beloved, taking with him their common daughter Svetlana.
The artist’s other novels also turned out to be unsuccessful. His first relationship with Zoya Schuhgalter ended a few years later. And their common son Vadim died at the age of 19 under unclear circumstances, which was a big blow for the artist. The second marriage with Antonina Eliseeva also cannot be called happy.
The artist lived the longest with his third wife, Marina Kolumbova. He was with the artist until his death, but the husband and wife never managed to become parents.
