It was then: Yuri Galtsev, who had lost weight beyond recognition, shocked the audience

Evgeny Petrosyan

“And Evgeny Petrosyan, next to his young wife, is like a boy. Look how he dances and sings,” Netizens leave approving comments in this spirit on Petrosyan’s microblog on Instagram. With the appearance of Tatyana Brukhunova, not only the artist’s blog came to life—he himself became younger. Instead of ribbed knitted vests, a light shirt with bright stripes and suspenders; instead of a casual coat, a stylish raincoat from an elite British brand.

Who is she - the girl because of whom Yuri Galtsev has changed beyond recognition?

Who became the new lover of Yuri Galtsev? And who made him change so much?

This girl's name is Maria Nasyrova. She was a comedian student. And it was in the company of this cute creature that Yuri Galtsev was seen in 2016. Then the photos from the party, where the fifty-five-year-old artist tenderly hugs his twenty-four-year-old girlfriend around the waist, were very eloquent. And then the journalists found out that in 2010 Masha began studying at Yuri Galtsev’s acting course at the St. Petersburg Academy of Theater Arts. And after graduating from university, she got a job in his theater.

Interestingly, by this time the couple had already had a son. Thus, the boy Gleb, whom Galtsev carefully hid, was born in 2015.

Yuri Galtsev

The viewer remembered the 59-year-old artist as he appeared on the Full House stage: disheveled hair almost to his shoulders, receding hairline, funny shirts. But not a trace remained of the image of an eccentric and a simpleton: a couple of weeks ago, Yuri Nikolaevich came to visit Elena Stepanenko unrecognizably. Posing next to the comedian was a man with a shaved head, a neat beard and a stylish dark blue suit—the updated Yuri Galtsev.

They say that the artist owes the change in image to his beloved 30 years younger than him, actress Maria Nasyrova. Rumors about a romance between a teacher and a student began to spread 4 years ago, when the couple was already raising their one-year-old son Gleb. Galtsev still hides the changes in his personal life - it is much more pleasant for him to collect compliments because of his younger appearance.

“Love.. why are you torturing me..” – Yuri Galtsev is transformed before our eyes

Well, it not only torments - some people get younger and fly from it, like Yuri Galtsev. The name of Yuri Galtsev is well known to those who love comedy shows and watch them regularly

Galtsev is one of the regular participants in the “Full House” program. He is 59 years old and most viewers remember him as an eccentric man with wild hair and colorful clown shirts. At the same time, he has sparkling blue eyes and a charming smile. Perhaps it was these last two circumstances that his young student fell in love with.

Recently, Yuri appeared on the set of Elena Stepanenko’s show and viewers would not have recognized him in a joint photo with her if she had not signed the photo. Slender, having lost tens of kilograms, with a smoothly shaved head, a neat beard - an impressive jacket with a bow tie finished off all those who did not recognize him.

“The eyes of friendship are rarely mistaken,” Voltaire once said. And now I look into the eyes of my friend Yura and see so much warmth and love in them! Believe me, this love can overcome everything in the world. Please, don't be afraid, just love! And then all troubles will pass you by

– wrote Elena Grigorievna. You can feel how much Stepanenko loves her friend, she didn’t even spare heart emoticons for him. But their relationship is not romantic, but simply very warm and human.

There are many similarities in the fate of both artists. Yuri Nikolaevich also fell in love with his young assistant, but like Evgeny Petrosyan, he did not leave his wife, although the girl gave birth to a child from him 5 years ago. The relationship between Galtsev and Maria Nasyrova (29) became known in 2016. Photos from a party where a teacher and a student danced and hugged tenderly appeared on the Internet. There was no need for words to describe or guess what was happening between them.

According to the artist’s colleagues, he is a very faithful husband. She and Irina Rakshina have been together for many years. But this did not bother Masha. They say that when she was a girl she saw a comedian on TV, fell in love, came to Moscow and did everything to get into his group. If at first Yuri Nikolaevich laughed - some girl was throwing notes at him, then later it was no longer funny. Masha could wear a seductive dress, or look at the teacher with a languid gaze throughout the lecture, or throw a tantrum, in a word - he, too, fell in love.

I taught Yura’s course and know Nasyrova very well. The relationship between Galtsev and Maria developed before my eyes. She achieved it. But I have no right to tell you the details...

– said former director of Galtsev Aliki Usubiani.

Now Galtsev lives in two families. He is not going to leave his wife Irina, but next to Masha, they say, he immediately becomes younger. Maria gave birth to his son Gleb back in 2015. From his previous two marriages, Yuri has an adult son and daughter.

By the way, an interesting fact. Yuri Nikolaevich was born on the day of Gagarin's flight into space. That is why he was named after the first Soviet cosmonaut:

An hour after my birth, they announced on the radio that Yuri Gagarin had flown into space. The next day, a delegation from the city committee approaches my mother’s bed. “Your son was born at such a historical moment, it would be nice to call him Yuri

- said Galtsev.

Mikhail Shufutinsky

Losing weight in adulthood is stressful for the body, but what can’t you do for love! Having survived the death of his wife Margarita from a heart attack, the performer became close to Svetlana Urazova, his ex-dancer. The blonde (by the way, the age difference between the couple is 30 years) supported Shufutinsky and gradually turned from friend to lover. Next to her, the chanson star blossomed.

“Mikhail Zakharovich lost 30 kilos a long time ago. Now he continues his diet and reduces his weight. True, he is no longer losing weight in such large volumes, but gradually. He eats right and exercises. He generally goes to the pool every other day, if his tour schedule allows it. In general, he maintains his physical shape with all his might,” Svetlana said about the changes in Shufutinsky’s appearance.

Biography

Yuri Galtsev is a Russian pop and clownery artist, parodist, theater and film actor. His bright comedic talent was repeatedly noted by the masters of the genre. At one time, Yuri Nikolaevich became the only artist to receive the Arkady Raikin Cup from the hands of Mikhail Zhvanetsky himself at the “MORE SMEHA” festival in the capital of Latvia.

Comedian Yuri Galtsev

Today he not only delights fans with new miniatures, but also runs the Variety Theater in St. Petersburg, where he also appears on stage, teaches at a theater university and acts in films.

Konstantin Ivlev

The famous chef began losing weight last year, when he lived with his wife Maria. The 23-year-long marriage collapsed due to Konstantin’s passion for journalist Valeria - it is the young companion that Ivlev now thanks for the metamorphoses that happened to him.

Because of his love for food, Ivlev weighed more than 130 kilos. To get in shape and get healthier, the diet had to be revised: meat disappeared from the TV star’s menu, carbohydrates almost disappeared (with the exception of morning sweet tea and a piece of bread for breakfast). As a result, minus 22 kilograms, and Konstantin’s rejuvenation continues: on vacation with his beloved Valeria, the cook walks to the sea, swims for a kilometer and walks home again.

Alexander Tsekalo

Next to the 59-year-old producer is sultry artist Darina Ervin. The brunette has a lot of insolence: she shows off her enviable body without shame, walks around the house without clothes and shares the details of her intimate life with her new husband. If you're overweight, you can't keep up with someone like that - so Alexander Tsekalo took charge of himself.

“Sasha has changed a lot in his new relationship. I lost noticeable weight, lost about 10 kilograms. How? Sports - swimming and exercise equipment, plus proper nutrition. And it’s an incentive to look great next to your young wife,” say those surrounded by the couple.

Alexander has to match not only the image of Darina, but also her mother. Just look what Tsekalo's mother-in-law looks like!
