Childhood and adolescence
Dmitry's birthday, July 9, 1978, coincided with the celebration of Fisherman's Day , which, however, did not affect the boy's future fate. His first years of life were spent surrounded by loving parents: mother Lyudmila Grigorievna and father Peter Valentinovich . After 8 years, the family was replenished with a younger sister, Nastya .
With parents and sister
Dmitry's father, an actor at the Youth Theater, was recognizable in his hometown. He often went on tour, accompanied by his son. The behind-the-scenes world was not a mystery to the boy, but the desire to follow in his parent’s footsteps arose much later.
As a child, Dima went through many occupations in his mind: from a teacher to a policeman . In high school, I dreamed of becoming a sailor, which is not surprising for a resident of a port city. He understood perfectly well that he needed to study well and be an example for others in order to enter the naval school. His photograph even appeared on the school honor board.
In childhood
The fate of his son was decided by the father, who dominated the family. Pyotr Valentinovich himself left the theater for business. Boheme cafe , and then the Nastenka , named after his beloved daughter.
Having not achieved great heights in theatrical art, he had high hopes for Dmitry, noticing the boy’s acting talent. He enrolled him in the “School for Gifted Children ,” where his son got a taste for acting on stage.
The artistic director of the local Youth Theater was present at the future actor’s graduation benefit performance. He was amazed by the guy’s performance and recommended applying to a Moscow theater university , assuring that if he failed, he would enroll Dmitry in his troupe without competition.
After graduating from school, Dmitry Dyuzhev, accompanied by his parents, went to try his luck in the capital, and for good reason. He passed a competition at several theater institutes, but made his choice in favor of GITIS . The young man was lucky to get on a course with the famous Mark Zakharov .
In young age
As it turned out, even Dmitry Dyuzhev is not in a good mood. However, the actor learned to avoid quarrels with his wife and spoke about it.
One of the strongest couples in Russian show business, Dmitry Dyuzhev and his wife Tatyana, have been happily married for 10 years. However, the couple still look as in love with each other as they did at the beginning of their life together. They have two children growing up - Vanya and Mitya. Parents dote on their heirs and try to do everything for the happiness of their beloved children. Dmitry understands how important the atmosphere in the house is, and therefore does not allow all the stress after work to spill out on the people closest to him. “If I’m in a bad mood, then under no circumstances will I go to my family in that state. I’ll travel around Moscow, meet friends, play sports, but return home calm. After all, if you arrive irritated, it will be impossible to hide it. And the last thing I would like is for our children to hear their parents talking in a raised voice,” said Dyuzhev.

The beloved actor Tatyana shares the same opinion. She believes that scandals and quarrels in the family appear only when spouses stop loving each other. Dyuzhev’s wife understands how important it is for children to grow up in calm and peace. “Dima and I love each other, we are sure that our marriage is forever, so we won’t shout, swear, stomp our feet in order to regret it later. In a quarrel it is difficult to stay on the edge, and then how to return the words spoken in anger? First of all, this is Dima’s wisdom, which he once voiced. And this understanding came to me personally with the advent of my first child. I realized that I couldn’t escape by slamming the door. A person has appeared for whom it is important that he is loved not by his father and mother separately, but by his parents together, and that they themselves also love each other,” Tatyana admitted.

Also, Dmitry’s wife used some trick with her eldest son, so that the boy would behave respectfully towards his parents. “This is probably my little trick, but when Vanechka was little, I told him that mothers, who are often upset and offended by their children, look bad and age quickly. And those mothers whom their children love very much, on the contrary, look even younger,” Dyuzheva shared her secret with the publication’s journalists. “And since it is very important for Vanya that I be beautiful and smile more often, he never upsets me and always finds words that make me want to cry with happiness,” StarHit quotes.
