Father's estate
But the stage of the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory for Alexander still remains his father's estate. Fans of the talent of Alexander Sr. say that when his father was at the peak of popularity, it was impossible to buy an extra ticket for his concerts. On the threshold of the hall there was always a detachment of mounted militia.
Of course, his descendant, when entering the stage, is very worried when he goes to the audience, because there are listeners in the room who remember how the great pianist played Chopin.

Alexander Slobodyanik: personal life
The young musician tries not to spread too much about his personal life. The only thing that is known: for a while, Alexander Slobodyanik and Maria Mashkova were married. Although before that, the chosen one of the pianist Maria was already married to a colleague on the series.
A little about Mashkova
Maria Mashkova is a Russian theater and film actress. The daughter of the popular Russian actor Vladimir Mashkov and actress Elena Shevchenko. In the film industry, the actress made her debut when she was 11 years old. Maria was busy in the film of V. Grammatikov's "Little Princess", where she played the role of the mischievous girl Lavinia. After school, a young girl expressed a desire to study at the Plekhanov Academy at the Faculty of Economics. But after some time she changed her choice and decided to connect her life with the acting profession, enrolling in the Theater School, on the course of V. Poglazov.
The personal life of the actress did not develop very smoothly. Now Alexander Slobodyanik is Mashkova’s husband. Before becoming the wife of a pianist, Maria divorced her first husband, a colleague on the TV series “Don't Be Born Beautiful, ” Artyom Semakin. Marry married Artyom early enough. It’s a pity, but the actress’s first marriage was short-lived, although for the sake of Mashkova Semakin left his first wife and little daughter. However, the media received information that Artem was cheating on Mary and had not previously been an ideal family man and an exemplary husband.
Maria was married to Semakin for 4 years (2005-2009). And already in the summer of 2010 she married Alexander, giving birth to his daughter Stefanie almost immediately.
Birth of girls: Stephanie and Alexandra
Having given birth to the first girl for Alexander, Maria plunged headlong into family life, and many had the impression that nothing could overshadow the happiness of young people. Mashkova stopped "going out" and attending fashionable parties, and even for some time she disappeared from the field of view of viewers and fans.
Journalists began to have questions and assumptions: did the daughter of Vladimir Mashkov lose interest in the acting career, or maybe her husband Alexander forbids her to continue to do work? Is it true that the actress left the stage forever and decided to become an exemplary housewife and wife?
However, a little later it became known why Mary led a closed life for a certain time. Having given birth to Stephanie, the actress almost immediately became pregnant with her second child, giving birth in March 2012 to another girl named Alexandra. The difference in age between sisters is only a year and a half. However, after childbirth, after just a couple of months, the young broke up. Neither Maria nor Alexander have given official comments on the break. In material terms, according to the assumptions of journalists, there should not have been any problems, since Alexander’s income was enough to fully provide for his family.
