Young Julia Kryukova is the daughter of the famous actor Konstantin Kryukov, the heir to the famous dynasty of Russian cinema, and Evgenia Varshavskaya, the successor to the billionaire father’s business. What happened to the story of a girl born at the junction of the relationship of these two difficult families?
The origins
The story began in the distant 20s of the last century, when in the small village of Belozerka, Kherson district of the Ukrainian SSR, on September 25, 1920, an outstanding Soviet and Russian film and theater actor, film director and screenwriter Sergei Fedorovich Bondarchuk was born who did not need a special submission.
Thirty-nine years later, the famous actress Irina Konstantinovna Skobtseva became his third wife.
Three years later, they became the parents of the daughter of Helen, the future grandmother of Julia Kryukova, our today's heroine. And in 1967, the turn came and the youngest son of Fedi, who later became a famous film actor, producer and film director Fedor Bondarchuk.
Thus began one of the brightest and most influential dynasties of Russian cinema.
Grandfathers
Our heroine received her surname from her paternal grandfather - a gemologist, doctor of philosophical sciences and entrepreneur Vitaly Dmitrievich Kryukov (below in the photo).
On the mother’s side, Yulia Kryukova’s grandfather was a former deputy of the State Duma and billionaire Vadim Evgenievich Varshavsky, an authoritative and high-ranking person. Twenty-five years of his career from the head of the mining section of the Yakut Ugol production association to the general director of Russky Ugol CJSC were truly dizzying.
The wife of grandfather Vitaly was the very Elena, the daughter of Irina Skobtseva and Sergey Bondarchuk.
The spouse of grandfather Vadim was also called Elena. She, like her husband, was an entrepreneur and engaged in the banking business. In their marriage, two daughters were born - Anna and Eugene, the future mother of Julia Kryukova.
Grandma Lena
Elena Sergeyevna Bondarchuk, the wife of grandfather Vitaly, was a worthy successor to the cinematic dynasty of their famous family. The descent from the family of the great director and actress naturally predetermined her own acting fate.
While still a young sixteen-year-old schoolgirl, she first played in a movie. Her debut was the military drama "Velvet Season", which was released in 1978. Following the advice of her famous father, the future grandmother of Julia Kryukova was quite selective about the proposed scenarios, so she had few big roles in the movie. Her most striking works were the paintings "Boris Godunov" and "Quiet Don".
Then her husband, Vitaly Kryukov, offered Elena Sergeyevna, together with their five-year-old son Kostya, to move to him in Switzerland, where he worked at that time. Bondarchuk agreed and for almost ten years broke up with her homeland, fully devoting herself to her husband.
Father
The first kindergarten of the father of Julia Kryukova, Konstantin Kryukov, the son of Elena Bondarchuk and Vitaly Kryukov, was a Swiss nursery. There, in Switzerland, he studied at school until the sixth grade and graduated from an art school in the city of Zurich, which served as a worthy start for his formation as an artist, who was subsequently awarded the Order of Franz Kafka.
Then his family returned to Moscow, where at the age of fourteen Kryukov graduated from an external school at the German embassy.
Two years later, the young child prodigy had already managed to become a graduate of the Moscow branch of the American Institute of Gemology, which he entered on the advice of his father, passionate about this gem science.
Having become a gemologist, Konstantin learned the jewelry craft, and at the age of 17 he made a ring for his mother with a unique design developed by himself. Seven years later, his first collection of jewelry, Choice, came out.
Then he decided to radically change his occupation and graduated from the Law Academy.
But he was encouraged to become a famous actor by his own uncle, the same Fedor Bondarchuk, who invited him in 2005 to his picture "9th Company". From that moment on, the doors of the cinema for Konstantin no longer closed, and today his filmography has already exceeded fifty films.
Mother
Eugenia, the future mother of Yulia Kryukova and the youngest daughter of Vadim and Elena Varshavskikh, as already mentioned, came from an extremely wealthy family, lived with her parents on Rublevka and did not refuse anything to herself.
However, the girl she was educated and honest. And only for her misfortune or happiness she once met a womanizer and heartthrob Kryukov, it was up to her to decide.
A family
They met in 2003, by chance meeting in one of the Arbat cafes. Konstantin at that time was barely eighteen. Twenty-year-old Evgenia was a student at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations.
The girl herself went to the table at which Kryukov was sitting, mistaking him for the popular American singer Justin Timberlake. Word for word, there was mutual sympathy and close relationship between the young people, which lasted almost five years.
February 24, 2007 Konstantin and Eugene officially registered their marriage.
The wedding was luxurious, as befitted the level of the families of the marriage couple. The celebration was celebrated in the elite club "Paradise", one of the most expensive and fashionable metropolitan institutions. The bride's dress, adorned with almost two kilograms of pearls, corresponded to the decor.
The wedding gift of the groom to the bride was a ring, consisting of two intertwined rings with black and white diamonds.
And six months after the wedding, the young family of Konstantin and Eugenia was already expecting an addition.
Julia
Julia Kryukova, daughter of Konstantin Kryukov and Evgenia Varshavskaya, was born in Moscow on September 7, 2007.
She received this name in honor of her great-grandmother Julia Nikolaevna Skobtseva, who was a very bright man and took an active part in the education of young Konstantin.
Twenty-year-old Konstantin did not realize his paternity, so all care for her daughter fell on the shoulders of her mother Eugenia. Kryukov continued his usual bohemian and rave life.
The godfather of the newborn girl was Fedor Bondarchuk, who played the role of his main adviser and guardian for almost the entire conscious life of Konstantin Kryukov.

Until November 2008, the life of the little daughter of Konstantin and Eugenia was exactly the same as that of millions of other babies of her age.
It was then that the parents decided not to make their daughter public, and completely excluded her photos from reaching the media and the Internet.
Divorce
After the wedding, the father of Julia Kryukova, Konstantin Kryukov, did not change his own habits and loose life. He still remained the same womanizer, which at almost every party could be seen with another beauty, while his wife was sitting at home and nursing her daughter.
The facial expressions of the newlyweds in the photographs became sadder every day, and Eugene no longer hid her lost look.
Starting in March 2008, Kryukov practically stopped appearing at home. Unable to withstand such a family life, the girl filed for divorce.
Konstantin did not even come to the divorce proceedings, citing employment on the set in the new film.
Just a year and a half after the wedding, on November 6, 2008, their marriage was officially dissolved.
Kryukov himself considered the reason for the divorce from Eugenia Varshavskaya that his wife was an overly responsible and intrusive woman, showing her superiority over him. Therefore, he, in the soul of the hunter, next to Eugene became simply bored.
