Lyudmila Artemyeva children husband. Lyudmila Artemyeva - biography, information, personal life

Today, the personal relationship of the public's favorite is shrouded in mystery...

A Russian cinema star recently celebrated her birthday. The performer of one of the main roles in the comedy television series “Matchmakers” turned 55 years old. Lyudmila Viktorovna became famous for her brilliant performance in the projects “Taxi Driver” and “Who’s the Boss?”

Lyudmila Artemyeva was born in the GDR, in the city of Dessau, but her family did not live there long. The father of the future artist was a military man, so her childhood and youth were associated with several large-scale moves: when the girl was five years old, the family went to Uzhgorod.

Lyuda had to finish school in Lvov, then the family went to Leningrad, and after that it was finally time to conquer Moscow.

However, the frequent change of cities did not in any way affect the girl’s interests: from an early age she showed an incredible craving for art, and her acting talent was noticeable. Moreover, Luda skillfully parodied many famous people, and also often copied the behavior of family members, which could not go unnoticed by her parents.

At the family council, it was decided to send the child to a theater arts club, and there Artemyeva’s path to celebrity status began.

After graduating from school, Lyudmila entered the Shchukin Higher Theater School, charming the admissions committee and convincing everyone of her talent.

The girl persistently studied the skill and immediately after graduation she ended up in the legendary Lenkom. From that moment on, the actress began to gain popularity: theater, films, filming in advertising... Offers came one after another. Among these was the role of an intelligent grandmother in the Ukrainian television series “Matchmakers,” which the audience fell in love with from the very first episode thanks to its good humor.


It seems to many that, being in the image of Olga Nikolaevna, a stylish, principled and sharp-tongued woman, Artemyeva is playing herself. But the characters of the performer and her television character are absolutely different. Lyudmila herself has a wonderful sense of humor, she easily finds a common language with people and is optimistic about many things.

The only thing that brings these two women together is the desire to lead a healthy lifestyle. Olga on the screen plays sports and tries to eat right (nevertheless, she secretly smokes); Lyudmila douses herself with cold water after filming; she has long become a vegetarian and has completely given up bad habits.

“Olga’s behavior is completely out of character for me. What you see in the frame is an accurate selection of actors, a wonderful style of the scriptwriter, a well-positioned camera operator,” the actress herself admitted in an interview.

But if the character’s character does not go beyond the television screen, then Lyudmila’s relationships with her colleagues partially convey the atmosphere shown in the series. According to the script, Olga Nikolaevna is constantly in conflict with her in-laws; in reality, there are also quite strained relations between Lyudmila Artemyeva and Tatyana Kravchenko, who plays the role of Valentina Budko. Communication did not work out from the very beginning, although on the set the actresses behave professionally and do not allow themselves anything unnecessary.


“I’ll be honest: we weren’t friends, but we didn’t have to pull each other’s hair. We just tried to communicate less - she and I are too different. She is a complex person, and I’m probably not entirely simple either. She irritated her with her loudness and assertiveness. Well, and she told me... Well, it was all behind the scenes. We worked as expected. Maybe, by the way, it was good for filming. We constantly have fights over the plot, so it all fits into the theme,” Tatyana Kravchenko assessed the situation...

Lyudmila Artemyeva has an adult daughter, Ekaterina, she did not follow in her mother’s footsteps. Katya is a professional translator. Her father is Lyudmila's ex-husband Sergei Parfenov, with whom the star divorced after 15 years of marriage - due to his problems with alcohol. Today, the personal relationship of the public’s favorite is shrouded in mystery: Lyudmila Viktorovna does not like to comment on this matter.

Currently, Lyudmila plays both in films and on the theater stage: we can enjoy the roles of our favorite actress in the Modern Enterprise Theater, in the production of “The Happiness Syndrome, or Lies under the Contract”, and in the play of the Central House of Culture of Railway Workers “Close People”.

The capable and artistic child was noticed everywhere, she loved to parody and did it very effectively, so that all the teachers kept repeating the same thing: “People need to go to the theater!”

As a child, Luda attended a drama club and singing lessons, excelling in both areas.

After graduating from school in the northern capital, the actress did not want to go to theater school, but decided to follow in her mother’s footsteps and study music professionally. So the first university for Artemyeva was the Leningrad Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory.

After studying there for a year, Luda came to her senses and realized that she couldn’t live without theater and cinema. She went to Moscow and successfully entered “Pike”.

The girl eagerly devoured all knowledge and was a successful student; some classmates even asked Luda to study with them. This is how she met Sergei Parfenov from the senior year, they saw each other every day and Lyuda helped him rehearse an excerpt from “Oblomov”. This was in the first year, and in the second year he already proposed to her.

In the third year, the couple had a daughter, Katya, and Lyudmila’s teacher Marina Ter-Zakharova, with whom she was very close, then helped her find a good obstetrician for childbirth.

The girl was sent to her husband’s parents in Tallinn, since it was difficult with a small child in the hostel; they came to see Katenka only on weekends. When their studies were nearing the end, it was time to look for housing and register, with which Ter-Zakharova once again helped the young people, getting them a room in a communal apartment.

Sergei has always been more talented, more successful and in demand in the world of cinema than Lyudmila. She was proud of her husband and supported him in every possible way. Sergei began to be invited to theaters - first to the Central Children's Theater, then to the Theater of Satire, and also to the theater on Malaya Bronnaya.

In the 90s, Lyudmila was invited to work in one of the most famous and prestigious theaters in Moscow - Lenkom. It was then that Lyuda felt the first pricks and coldness from her husband. Meanwhile, little Katya grew up. They decided to send her to school in Moscow, for which they took the girl from Tallinn. A difficult time began for cinema, and for the whole country - the 90s.

Sergei began to lose his job, he was invited less and less to filming, but Lyudmila, on the contrary, began to slowly climb up.

DIVORCE

At first, Sergei simply took a sip from the bottle. Lyudmila tried to talk with her husband, but it did not help, quarrels occurred more and more often.

Katya watched the drunken showdown, and later, when Lyudmila’s patience ran out, she would take her mother’s side and support her decision to divorce. After fifteen years of marriage, Artemyeva and Parfenov ended their relationship.

Having started a new life, the actress decides to leave the theater and try herself in cinema. She is immediately noticed and put on comedic roles, which she successfully performs.

Already in the early 2000s, Lyudmila played the charming taxi driver Nadezhda Romashova, with whom the audience literally fell in love, so much so that they had to film four seasons! Later, Artemyeva embodied another bright character - the typical urban intellectual Olya in “Matchmakers.” On the set of the sixth season of “Matchmakers,” 49-year-old Artemyeva goes on maternity leave; as it turns out, she has been happy in her new marriage for several years and has decided to have another child.

But after a couple of months, the actress felt unwell, they urgently called an ambulance, but the doctors were unable to save the baby. After the miscarriage, Lyudmila was only with those closest to her, not wanting to see anyone.

But, like a strong-willed woman, she pulls herself together and continues acting, delighting her fans. Now she works a lot, emphasizes that she is happy with her new husband and does not hide the fact that she has not yet given up the idea of ​​becoming a mother again.

The heroines of Lyudmila Artemyeva are vessels that contain an explosive mixture of kindness and toughness, looseness and integrity. At first glance, these women are divorced from reality and at the same time know the most unsightly sides of life.

The actress claims that there are few parallels between her and the characters. The only thing they have in common is openness and gullibility (not to be confused with naivety). Therefore, Artemyeva perceives everyday and professional events as a “natural acquisition of experience,” regardless of the colors in which they are painted.

Childhood and youth

Lyudmila Artemyeva was born on February 10, 1963 in the German city of Dessau, where her father, Soviet Army officer Viktor Filippovich, was serving at that time. Lyudmila’s mother, Maria Avdeevna, was a professional athlete, was a member of the Ukrainian national track and field athletics team, but left her sports career due to frequent moves.

When their daughter turned 5 years old, the Artemyev family moved to Uzhgorod, where Lyuda went to school. True, I had to finish my studies in Lvov, since the head of the family was again transferred to the service. The girl had a bright artistic talent, skillfully parodied the behavior style of her friends, and other children were clearly envious of her.


The parents, noticing this, sent their daughter to the studio, where Lyudmila finally realized her creative calling. Already in her youth, Artemyeva begins to think about an acting career.

After school, Lyuda entered the Leningrad Music School in the pop department, and after 2 years she transferred to the capital, where she successfully graduated from the Moscow Theater School named after Shchukin. The girl’s mentor was Honored Artist of Russia Marianna Rubenovna Ter-Zakharova.

Over time, Artemyeva felt that existence within the walls of the theater was too prosperous, life went on as usual. This state of affairs did not suit the artist; Lyudmila felt a desire to try something different:

“And you think, how can this be, what is this, and try, and find something else.”

The actress believes that the desire to change places and circumstances is a normal desire for a creative person. In 2003, Lyudmila left Lenkom.

Lyudmila admits that the reason and motive for the birth of a child was her daughter, who is already 26 years old, and she has not yet given her mother grandchildren, whom Artemyeva loves very, very much.
