People’s Artist Alexander Abdulov died 15 years ago, five months before his 55th birthday. On May 29, 2023, Alexander Abdulov could have turned 70 years old. On his birthday, according to tradition, his friends and relatives will come to the grave of the actor at the Vagankovsky cemetery. We tell how his closest people live – a widow and a daughter.
DAUGHTER – EVGENIA ABDULOVA
This spring Zhenya Abdulova turned 16 years old. “Zhenya has grown up: already Sasha’s height. Very beautiful – in dad, a wonderful girl is growing. Dad would be proud of her, ”a friend of the actor’s family recently told Larisa Dolina. Zhenya this week graduated from the 10th grade of the capital’s school on Gilyarovskogo Street. The school is just not far from the family’s house – Abdulov received a three-ruble note on Gilyarovskogo at one time from the theater. The actor’s widow Yulia Abdulova and daughter Evgenia live in this apartment. Sometimes they go to the dacha: an actor built a house in Vnukovo near Moscow, the widow did not sell it, saved it for her daughter – as a memory of her father.

Evgenia is as tall as her dad – she has already caught up with him in height.

Julia Abdulova long ago she decided to lead a life closed from prying attention: she does not attend secular parties, does not give interviews, and has never been promoted in the name of her husband. Therefore, you can only learn some details about the life of the actor’s family not firsthand. “Zhenya is a wonderful girl, no star disease. Wants to become a director. She shoots on the phone and mounts the video, ”the actress, a family friend, told kp.ru. Zhenya’s mother often says that her daughter has not yet finally decided on a profession. The girl has a graduation class ahead of her. Many note her creative nature. Four years ago, Zhenya was engaged in a children’s acting studio, and at the age of 9, Zhenya starred in Alla Surikova’s film Love and Saks. But since then, Abdulova has abandoned the idea of becoming an artist.
Those who communicate with the family note: Zhenya is very similar to her father (before, they often talked about the external resemblance to Abdulov’s mother), tall and slender, she studies well. Yulia Abdulova said that Alexander’s mother, when she looked at her grown granddaughter, cried: “How she looks like Sasha!” And Julia smiled in response: “Yes, she looks like you: both in appearance and character. You both have it Nordic, firm, domineering.

Zhenya Abdulova became very similar to the famous father.

Actor’s mom Lyudmila Alexandrovna died five years ago (she was 96 years old). Shortly before her death, she told in an interview how her son could not restrain his feelings when he introduced his mother to Yulia: “I have never experienced such feelings. I can’t believe this is happening to me!” And when he found out that Julia was pregnant, he cried with happiness. 54-year-old Abdulov turned out to be a reverent father: as soon as his daughter started crying, he was worried and demanded to call a doctor, and celebrated his Zhenechka’s birthday every month. The actor knew that he was terminally ill and was in a hurry to live … Alexander Gavrilovich died when his Zhenechka was 9 months old. And his Zhenechka now knows by heart all the songs from the films where dad was filmed.

WIDOW – YULIA ABDULOVA
The artist’s widow, Yulia Abdulova, does not respond to rumors that are regularly circulated on talk shows and on social networks. New suitors are constantly attributed to her: they started with a friend of Alexander Gavrilovich, then switched to “nameless” businessmen, etc. They know that there will be no denials. The situation is similar with Abdulov’s “false children”, who went to scandalous talk shows for the sake of a fee or PR (this is how little-known actors hoped to get a job).

47-year-old Yulia Abdulova is no longer married. Lives with her daughter. Family acquaintances say she has “no new relationship”. Abdulova has a higher legal education, and after the death of her husband, in order to distract herself, she studied at the astrological institute of Pavel Glob. Contrary to rumors, she did not give any astrological consultations. Abdulova several years ago got a job in a company that provides medical services – assisting clients in choosing the right clinic, doctor in our country or abroad.
HERITAGE OF ABDULOV
After the death of Alexander Abdulov, his inheritance went to three heirs: mother, widow and daughter. The people’s artist did not have any bank accounts and huge savings. In the theater, Alexander Abdulov received $ 4,500 in the last years before his death. But Abdulov always spent decently – he was generous: he got medicines for an unfamiliar child, helped buy equipment for the perinatal center, etc.

The heirs left 3 properties: a three-room apartment on Gilyarovsky Street in Moscow, a house in Vnukovo near Moscow and a hunting house in Valdai (joint property of Abdulov and a friend). Yulia Abdulova paid a third of the value of the inheritance of $ 800 thousand to his mother. According to rumors, my husband’s friends helped raise money by buying out his shares in some business projects. After his death, the mother of Alexander Abdulov decided to live with the family of her son Robert (the man was still alive then). Before the death of the actor, Lyudmila Alexandrovna lived in Vnukovo with Alexander and Yulia. Julia offered Lyudmila Alexandrovna to stay with her and her granddaughter Zhenya, but the woman had only one of her three sons alive, which is why she moved with Robert’s family to Ivanovo. It was Robert who asked his mother to request her part of the inheritance. But Julia reacted then with understanding to this situation: “The situation was obvious, everyday. When only Robert remained alive of the three sons of Lyudmila Alexandrovna, she, as a mother, first of all supported his interests. Which is generally understandable. And she preferred to live with him, and not with us … “
The real estate of Alexander Abdulov became the property of his widow and daughter. Julia and Zhenya visited Lyudmila Alexandrovna in Ivanovo. After Robert’s death, Lyudmila Alexandrovna stayed with her daughter-in-law Alya. The actor’s brothers Robert and Vladimir have children. Yulia Abdulova communicates with her husband’s relatives.
