"- wrote one of the group's fans on her official fan page on Instagram ...

“This photo was taken on the 20th anniversary of the Ivanushki International group. “I’m waiting for the phone, and here is the camera, how unusual,” she said then, laughing ... Julia, so kind and open, never walked by ... Andrey, hold on, ”she grieves along with the relatives of the deceased women photographer Gulshat Abyzova.

Not so long ago, Yulia Grigorieva-Apollonova and her husband Andrei celebrated their anniversary family life... On June 10, 2015, the singer's sister married her lover, with whom she had lived for 15 years in civil marriage... The couple registered the relationship at the Sochi registry office. Yulia's brother Andrei Grigoriev-Apollonov took an active part in organizing the wedding of his beloved sister, with whom he had a very warm relationship... The woman worked as a costume designer in his group.

Singer Andrei Grigoriev-Apollonov seems to be pursued by an evil fate. Per recent times the man suffered several bereavements. Not so long ago, the vocalist's mother passed away, less than a month ago he buried a friend. Ex-soloist of "Ivanushki International" Oleg Yakovlev died after an illness.

And now it's gone own sister Andrey Grigoriev-Apollonov.

He graduated from a music school, a pedagogical school and even taught at school for a couple of months. But realizing that this profession was not for him, he entered the Academy of Theater Arts. As a child, he was fond of philately, for which he was awarded a trip to "Artek".

From the mid-80s, he worked for four years as a model in a fashion theater, and from the beginning of the 90th as a production director there. Two years later I won creative competition and together with Igor Sorin left for America for a couple of years to perform in the musical "Metro". A year after his return, he became a soloist of the Ivanushki International group.

Personal life

Father Heinrich Svyatoslavovich is a surgeon by profession, long years worked as a hospital chief physician. Mother Margarita Andreevna served in the winter theater in the city of Sochi. Both parents have passed away. Sister Yulia is several years older than Andrey, for more than ten years she worked in the Ivanushki group as a costume designer. She passed away in July 2017.

The first wife was Maria (Marina) Lopatova, with her he lived for five years in a civil marriage. The couple broke up on friendly terms. Now the girl is married to Andrey Kirilenko (basketball player).

The second wife is Marina Bankova. The couple legalized their relationship with the birth of their second son. The first-born Ivan was born in 2003, and five years later the second son Artemy was born, both play hockey.

Andrei Grigoriev-Appolonov's apartment

From birth, Andrei lived in Sochi in Khrushchev on Dagomyskaya Street, 30, and after he moved to the capital, for many years he lived in rented apartments, but after many years of performances, they managed to acquire their own two-room living space in Moscow. In it he long time lived with his first wife Lopatova. Andrey sometimes thought about moving, but it so happened that he did not take up this problem seriously.

After the second marriage and the birth of the second child, the family was already seriously thinking about moving to a more spacious house. After a short search, they bought a four-room apartment on Rochdelskaya Street. First, they had to give a loan, which they took for the purchase of housing, it took about two years, and then they started repairing, which lasted a year.

The owner and his wife were involved in the design. They focused on interiors in a French and calm style. Of course, all the rough work was done by a specially hired team of builders, but everything that is now inside was bought by Andrey and Marina with their own hands.

The furniture was made in Russia by order of the owner, but small additions, such as statuettes and lamps, he brought from abroad, mainly from Milan and England. The singer always finds time to look into an antique store and buy himself an old thing. For example, just recently I brought a magnificent lamp from my next tour, which perfectly matched the interior.

The living room has a large sofa in French style, there is also plasma and several old lamps brought from abroad. Everything is done in subtle beige colors with white and gold accents.

He considers the living room to be his favorite place, where you can sit in an easy chair and watch TV or surf the Internet. Although, according to the singer, all the places and rooms here are dear and beloved for him, as housing was arranged with love.

The living space is located on the top floor multi-storey building, and above only the attic, in which he has been thinking of making a second floor with a fireplace and a billiard room for some time, but this idea is still only in the plans.

According to CIAN, a four-room living space on Rochdelskaya Street costs from 30 to 47 million rubles.

It so happened that Andrei never lived alone - he constantly met girls. The singer always wished that someone would bring him tea to bed and feed him breakfast. One love followed another, and the artist's first public romance was a relationship with Maria Lopatova, who later became the wife of basketball player Andrei Kirilenko. But then "Ivanushka" met his one and only Marina - according to him, it was a blow to the solar plexus. “Maybe I had already walked up by that time, maybe she bewitched me, I don’t know, but I could not get away from Masha…” Grigoriev-Appolonov admits. - I was not looking for 10 years, I was looking out for myself "Alenushka". I knew that sooner or later I would meet this person. "

Andrey Grigoriev-Appolonov and Marina Bankova, master of sports in tennis, met in common company- when this girl appeared, everyone was simply dumbfounded, because at that moment she had just returned from vacation - tanned, slender, with blond hair. Coming out of the stupor, the only thing that Grigoriev-Appolonov could whisper was: "Don't touch anyone!" “Fell in love instantly. Up to the ears. Somehow later, by hook or by crook, I asked Mani for a phone number, - the artist recalls. - Masha still insists that she has never been a fan of Ivanushki, so I, as a cavalier, didn't really care. But on the other hand, it flattered me, which means that she fell in love with me for my human qualities, and not because I am a popular musician. The fact that Masha was a minor at the time of our acquaintance - she was only 17 - she hid from me. She said that 19. She lied very confidently. Spent it out, the girl turned out to be capable. And only two years later, when I met her mother, I learned the truth. Laughed for a long time. I called her: "Manya, what year were you born?" She immediately defended herself: “This is confusion. I have two passports! " I say: “Come on. Instead of 20, you're 18 again ?! This is great news! "

12-year-old Ivan and 7-year-old Artemy play hockey, dance, sing and only delight their parents!

Threatening emails

Marina, of course, found it difficult to experience the fantastic popularity of the group - she was simply attacked by the fans of "Ivanushki", sent letters with threats. “Once she received a box, opened it - and there was a heap of our joint photographs cut from newspapers and magazines, and Masha's eyes were burned out on everyone,” Andrey shares his horrors. “But I couldn't always be with her and protect her. And when he was leaving on tour, and she was left at home alone, it would start ... There was always a knock at the door, they called and threatened: “Come out! I will kill you! ... ”The police constantly drove to our address. But we must pay tribute to Masha - she behaved courageously. "

Marina really used to be very frightened by this side of show business. When they just started living together, Andrei introduced her to all the "delights" of artistic life. At first, Marina accompanied him on all touring tours and realized that this was a very hard bread. “Constant flights, moving, fans who do not give a step and are on guard at the door of the hotel room ... I had to call the police more than once when the girls allowed themselves something completely outrageous - tantrums, threats ... Fortunately, now such scenes occur much less often ... Yes, and I learned how to behave correctly with the young ladies who call from Vladivostok at five in the morning to declare their love to my husband, ”admits Grigorieva-Appolonova.

Thanks to this, Marina has become so tempered that now nothing will break her! And Andrey knows this: “Recently I accidentally overheard her conversation with a friend. She was jealous of her boyfriend in a nightclub, sobbing into the phone that he was so and so. And Masha says to her: “If I were straining like this because of every photo or hug with Appollnov, I would have hung myself long ago or lost my mind!” - Andrey quotes his wife. - Indeed, if you look at hashtags with my name on Instagram, you get the impression that I am constantly hugging or kissing with someone. It is simply impossible to take offense at this. "We bring laughter and joy to people!" Is my motto. "


Marina at one time was professionally involved in sports, moonlighted in the cinema and took steps in modeling business but eventually became a simple housewife

Sons - hockey players

Marina stopped touring with her husband after she found out about her pregnancy. The first son of the spouses, Ivan, was born in 2003, and the second, Artemy, in 2008. Moreover, the singer told Marina about his desire to become a dad two weeks after they began to live together. He just said, "Give me a baby." She replied, "Good." And after nine months Ivan was born. Now both boys are professionally involved in hockey. “This is what the sons themselves wanted. I, of course, was for music. But Masha said: “No show business! In no case will I give my children to artists. One crazy person in my family is enough for me. " And I didn't argue with her. I would like them to become professional athletes and play in the NHL! "

Andrei does not exclude that children at the age of 17 will go to work. Already now he prepares boys for the fact that in old age they will have to provide for their dad: "Study well in order to be smart and well-off, so that your dad does nothing in retirement." Andrey is sure that the best investment is children, so he invests everything in his children. “They are talented. And, by the way, in terms of creativity, this also manifests itself - both dance and sing well. And in hockey their coaches praise them. Comprehensively developed personalities grow! Senior learns without triples. The youngest is only seven years old, and he already easily assembles a construction set for children from 13 and trains in the strongest sports school Moscow. Even I do not understand how he does it. So everything is cool! And I really hope that my sons will not let me down, ”says the soloist of the Ivanushki International group.

Grigoriev-Appolonov does not stop praising his woman in this vein - he notes that Marina takes on the maximum load, does everything to preserve his mental balance. Andrei's wife does not load Andrei with training children, going to school. And besides, the artist is nocturnal, so it is simply unrealistic for him to see the children off to school. “Concerts sometimes end at three or four in the morning. So Masha is my heroine. I am very grateful to her for that! She knows my life from the inside, because the first years she went on tour with me. At one point, however, she said: "That's it, I can no longer ride with you." This is an unreal test, both mental and physical. Now, when our team goes on tour abroad, Masha can say: “I will also fly with you. Hang out at the same time! "


Recently, in honor of the 20th anniversary of "Ivanushki International", Andrey's family gathered at Andrey Malakhov's show.

Housewife with model looks

Throughout her life, Marina worked very little: she was fond of cinema, starred in episodic roles, but Grigoriev-Apolonov never wanted all this to flow into something serious. "There is a saying:" If you want to lose your wife, give her to the artist. " Unfortunately, this is the truth of life. I am not a dictator, I gave Masha complete freedom of action, but you need to know when to stop. Masha takes care of the house and brings up children, the nanny, her mother and grandmother help her, she can always rely on them. Masha does whatever she likes, recently she has taken a great interest in equestrian sports, and when Artemka was born, I gave her a horse, although I had to refuse to buy new concert costumes. Our eldest son shares his mother's hobby, he also rides with pleasure. In general, my wife lives in "chocolate". The main thing is not to relax, otherwise it will not recover later. Sometimes, for prophylaxis, you can knock on the table with your fist and remind who is the boss in the house, ”the singer says, not without humor.

"Ivanushka" notes - for all the time that he and Marina spent together, he didn’t just fall in love - he never even felt the desire to be carried away by someone. For him, she personifies everything that is needed: Marina is beautiful, capable and very real. “The press is trying to break us all the time. But they won't wait! Over the years that we have been together, our relationship with Masha, of course, has slightly transformed. In the first year, I was finishing a concert, and I already had 40 of her unanswered calls on my phone. We talked a hundred times a day. Now - once. But I love my wife no less. And Masha loves me, I know that. The way she kisses me, the way we meet and say goodbye ... So it is. And I hope it will. Because otherwise it is not interesting. Otherwise, there is simply no point in living ... "

The wife of the soloist of "Ivanushki International" started a new romance

The path to the glory of Andrei Grigoriev-Apollonov was not easy. But one day the young man woke up famous. In 1995, a male collective was formed, where Andrei became one of the soloists. Although now the group does not have such popularity as in the nineties, the whole of Russia knows Grigoriev-Apollonov. The artist is recognized on the street, asked for an autograph, invited to talk shows and interviewed.

Red-haired Ivanushka, so called the soloist of the group "Ivanushki International" Andrei Grigoriev-Apollonov, was born in Sochi in the summer of 1970. At the time of the birth of a son, the elder sister Julia was already growing up in the family.

Andrei grew up as a lively and artistic boy. The red hair color and cheerful character made the child the center of attention of any company. They loved Andrey at school, because Grigoriev-Apollo is already in primary grades has established himself as a real artist: he participated in school activities and theatrical performances... And Andrey's favorite hobby - stamps - helped him get into the all-Union children's health resort: the boy was awarded a ticket to Artek for the best collection of stamps.

In "Artek" the boy was nicknamed "the director" for his inexhaustible imagination and participation in events.

But not only brands and performances on stage were Grigoriev-Apollonov's favorite pastimes. He had an excellent voice and good hearing, so his parents sent their son to a music school, where he learned to play the piano. And Andrey also played table tennis, reaching the title of candidate master in this sport.

Music

2nd year student of GITIS creative biography Andrey Grigoriev-Apollonov made a sharp turn. The Warsaw Drama Theater announced a competition in the capital: artists were recruited for the new musical "Metro". Andrey became interested in the project and also passed the casting. The young man was taken as a dancer. The musical was being prepared throughout the year.


In 1994, the theater began touring. First we went to the cities of Poland, and then to the USA. But if in Poland "Metro" was received warmly, then for sophisticated America the musical did not become a sensation. The theater departed with the artists ahead of schedule.

On tour, an event happened that influenced the future career of Grigoriev-Apollonov. He met with, who sang in the Metro. After returning to the capital, the dancer and singer met again.

In March 1998, Igor Sorin left the group and began solo career... Colleagues discouraged young man from this step, because the popularity of the team was gaining momentum. But Igor was adamant. Six months later, Sorin died tragically, falling from the balcony of the 6th floor.

In the mid-2000s, the band's popularity fell. Since 2007, "Ivanushki" no longer delighted fans with new hits.

In November 2015, "Ivanushki Int." gave an anniversary concert at Crocus City Hall. Former soloist Oleg Yakovlev took part in the performance.

The other day in the magistrate's court, the singer divorced without much publicity Andrey Grigoriev-Apollonov- Redhead from the group "Ivanushki"... Why? Beauty model Marina Bankova, or Manya, as her husband called her, found another? Or maybe she got tired of the jammed life? Or is love trite?

She came to Moscow to look for her husband

The history of this couple's relationship began eight years ago. In Moscow, Marina, according to her, tried to go to college. But failed. True, later the gossips were chatting that the girl from Omsk "purely concretely" set a goal - to get married successfully. The bright blonde with a rich bust undoubtedly had chances - it only remained to use them competently ...

- We met with friends, and began to live together on the third day, - more recently, Red told with rapture. - A week later I asked Manya: "Will you give birth to me?" She answered yes without hesitation and soon became pregnant. I was in seventh heaven with joy, and when, nine months later, I took my firstborn, Ivan, I thought: this is happiness!

- Everyone was terribly surprised when suddenly Red became a family one. It was difficult to imagine him in the role of husband and father: he gives the impression of a careless indifference, - recalls the author of the main hits of "Ivanushki" poet Alexander Shaganov, and he himself first married well over thirty, before that - he walked.

The poet's point of view is also confirmed by the fact that due to his “unwillingness” to marry, Andrei broke up with his girlfriend Masha Lopatova... She later became the wife of a basketball player. Andrey Kirilenko and bore him three children.

However, all friends note: yes, Red-haired gouge, careless, but he has always been unusually kind. Unlike, for example, "colleagues at work": the handsome man fixated on himself Kirill Andreeva or "inconspicuous" - on your mind - Oleg Yakovlev.

“There were fans hanging out under the windows all the time,” Andrey once said. - I remember, near Irkutsk, frost minus forty, gathered near the hotel. I leaned out of the window: "Girls, go home, otherwise you will freeze everything for yourself!" Didn't leave. One of them dropped her head into a snowdrift and shouted: “If you don’t come out, I won’t get up!” I was lying, probably, about twenty minutes, then I got scared - and really will get sick again - jumped out of the door, picked it up. I wanted to beat you in the ass so I wouldn't be fooled. She almost crying says: "I want to kiss you." I said: "Quickly kiss - and quickly go home!"

- Has it never happened to take advantage of this affection for yourself? - I once asked Andrey.

“Anything has happened,” he replied with a laugh. - But not in the severe frost, and we were tired after the concert ...

Gave a watch for 10,000 bucks

At the time of the meeting with Manya, Andrei walked up. The redhead was struck not only by Marina's external data and "deep internal eroticism", but also by the fact that she was singing "Ivanushek" did not admire. Moreover, she pretended that the creativity of the boy's group was "deeply parallel" to her.

One of the main points in all the manuals on twisting men is spelled out: never look into his mouth, the queen - you, those around him, including him, must unconditionally believe in this ... Red-haired Manya - and this was evident - really idolized.

“Once, as a fee, I was offered to choose a men's watch in the catalog,” the artist said. - But my gaze settled on a women's watch worth more than 10,000 euros. I thought: Masha will like it - and took it ... And for the birth of her first child I gave her a luxurious horse - then she became interested in equestrian sports.

Another story:

- There was some kind of festival where fans gave our group a huge number of roses. I collected all the flowers, took the petals from the roses for a long time and threw them into a small Children's swimming pool... From the petals, all the water turned purple-red, it was cool. I brought Masha - and she swam there like a goddess!

There is a type of women who believe that the husband is obliged to provide for the family, and their task is to decorate his life. And Manya adorned the life of the Redhead, without bothering herself with household chores. Andrei's mother-in-law and grandmother helped with the children, and the housekeeper who came cleaned and washed.

Heaven in Mane's hut is not needed

The artist has proudly noted more than once that his beloved meets him at home by candlelight in luxurious peignoirs. Even in a nightmare, he cannot imagine her in a washed robe. Beckoning is always a beauty!

Gossipers tried to attribute cool novels to her, for example with Alexander Ovechkin, in whose company Manya appeared at parties. The paparazzi more than once "snapped" someone else's wife on the hockey player's lap. But Red with a smile denied the rumors: "Ovechkin is my friend, I myself asked him to look after Manya in my absence."
Now they talk as if Ovechkin wife and took away. However, "ZhG" recently saw him with another lady - a brunette. Apparently, there is a novel.

It seems that it is not the lovemaker who is to blame for the divorce, and it is not Red's excessive passion for alcohol - this sin has been with him for fifteen years ... Recently, things in the Ivanushki group are not very good: most often they are invited to speak for free the other day in the city, there are few paid orders, with corporate parties - also a beggar. This means that there is no money either. But Mani's requests did not diminish: masseurs, cosmetologists, shopping in Europe ... Andrei even got a job as an art director in one of the capital's clubs, opened a restaurant, tried to DJ ... But things are not going well, and will it ever get better? The wife, however, categorically disagrees with "paradise in a hut".
