Why Vidov emigrated to America
The second wife of Oleg Borisovich was the daughter of the KGB general Natalya Fedotova. At that time, there were rumors that his success was largely due to his influential wife. After marriage and the birth of a child, Natalya Fedotova allegedly took advantage of the connections so that her husband Oleg Vidov was removed not only in the Soviet Union, but also abroad. Some films brought the artist wildly popular.
But the situation changed dramatically when the actor decided to part with his wife. Fedotova never considered him equal, and reproached her, while arranging scenes of jealousy.
The reason for the break was Fedotova's fascination with Fidel Castro. After a breakup with his wife, all previously open doors in front of him were closed. The ex-wife made every effort to ensure that Oleg Borisovich stopped filming.
