Grigory Leps

Grigory Leps was 30 years old when he moved to Moscow from Sochi: “...I just already understood that if I stayed singing in Sochi restaurants, I would fizzle out as an artist. He worked all night long. And he relieved fatigue with alcohol...” The singer practically stopped drinking, and once he even made a bet with his friends for a very large sum that he would not touch alcohol for two years.

Dana Borisova

Natalia Andreichenko

Beloved by Russian viewers, Mary Poppins tells how she almost died due to her passion for alcohol when she was 24 years old. While in Andrei Konchalovsky’s “Sibiriyada”, she earned a lot of money for a student - and skipped it on a grand scale: her career was in jeopardy, and the doctors persuaded Natalya to undergo a code. Later, after breaking up with Maximilian Schell, the actress again gave up alcohol in order to look better and feel happier.

Tatiana Dogileva

Actress and director Tatyana Dogileva was able to get rid of alcohol addiction at a critical moment - she lost control of herself and could have disrupted filming. The support of her loved ones helped her, and later Dogileva spoke openly about her problems in the press to help others cope with this illness.

Mikhail Boyarsky

Of course, the actor did not suffer from alcoholism, but he himself repeatedly admitted that he appreciated “binges” for the sake of courage and mood.

Today Ivan Okhlobystin is an exemplary family man and father of many children, but before he found faith, he was seen on alcoholic sprees.

The news of the romance between Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt spread throughout the world's press. This is not surprising: she is an actress in the popular TV series “Friends,” and he is one of the first recognized handsome men in Hollywood. It would seem that this is an ideal couple, and the rich and beautiful wedding ceremony should only strengthen the union of the two celebrities. At first everything went well, the couple did not leave the covers of famous magazines. But trouble crept up unnoticed: rumors spread that on the set of the film “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” Brad Pitt became seriously infatuated with his partner Angelina Jolie... Jolie Pitt tried to deny the beginning of their relationship on the set, but Aniston immediately filed for divorce. Be that as it may, one of the most beautiful couples broke up, and fans of the actors split into two warring fronts: some defended with all their might the unfortunate Jennifer, who was going through a difficult divorce and was even forced to seek help from a psychotherapist, while others, on the contrary, stood on the side of Brad, who dreamed of children when his wife was full-time with your career.

Demmy Moor

The huge age difference in Hollywood will not surprise anyone. However, in in this case we're talking about about a couple where the woman is fifteen years older than her lover. However, Demi Moore carefully monitored her appearance, so it is not at all strange that a young, promising actor Ashton Kutcher became interested in a beautiful, rich woman with the necessary connections in the cinema. The actors' romance ended quite quickly with a wedding; the couple actively posted their photos on in social networks, in which they looked quite happy and in love. However, youth, apparently, takes its toll: Kutcher began to cheat on his wife, and the details of his adventures quickly leaked to the press, where journalists actively procrastinated on them. After another such party, Demi could not stand it and filed for divorce, which she endured extremely hard. From an always fit and beautiful actress, Demi quickly turned into an emaciated and very aged woman. It seems as if Moore still cannot come to her senses after the divorce, as evidenced by her numerous affairs with young guys. But Ashton Kutcher is quite happy with Mila Kunis, who gave him the child he, according to him, dreamed of so much.

Vanessa Paradis

The union of Vanessa Paradis and Johnny Depp seemed strange to many, to put it mildly. She is a sophisticated Frenchwoman, and he is a bully with a history of problems with alcohol and drugs. However, despite the differences, the lovers gave the impression of a happy couple. In fourteen years life together The actors had two children, but the marriage was never officially registered. But as soon as the young and sexy actress Amber Heard appeared on the horizon, Depp immediately lost his head... Having met the actress on the set of the film “The Rum Diary,” Johnny almost immediately fell in love with his partner. For the sake of Amber, Johnny left the family and immediately proposed to his beloved, which Vanessa, the mother of his two children, never saw coming...

Heather Locklear

Popular actress Heather Locklear also had to deal with adultery. Her husband, Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora, acted extremely vilely: without waiting for an official divorce, he immediately started an affair with a close friend of Heather Denise Richards. Naturally, the female friendship instantly came to an end. A ex-spouse began fighting for joint custody of his and Locklear’s daughter, Ava. By the way, Richie’s betrayal and her friend’s betrayal brought the actress to a terrible depression. A year after the official divorce, Heather attempted suicide. However, the doctors managed to save the woman, but she had to spend some time in a psychiatric clinic.

Melanie Griffith

The union of Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas was considered the strongest and brightest in Hollywood. However, despite eighteen years, it would seem happy marriage, the couple filed for divorce. The actors indicated the most popular reason: “irreconcilable circumstances.” However, if you believe the tabloids, Banderas always liked to go “left”. However, the Spanish macho himself never denied that he loves to flirt with beautiful women. Apparently, Antonio’s latest hobby was the reason for the couple’s divorce.

Jennie Garth

The star of the cult TV series “Beverly Hills, 90210” Jennie Garth tried for a very long time to save her marriage with actor Peter Facinelli. But the ex-husband was adamant in his decision; even eleven years of marriage with Jenny and three daughters could not stop him. As Garth admitted in an interview, her husband’s decision to divorce shocked her and led to terrible depression, from which the actress helped her daughter get out. By the way, Jenny tried in every possible way to save the marriage, and according to her, she did everything possible to do this. However, a miracle did not happen, the divorce between the actors was formalized, and a few months after that Facinelli was already having fun with his new girl, actress Jaimie Alexander. By the way, Peter even proposed to her, but the couple soon broke off the engagement. Rumor has it that it was allegedly due to the busy schedules of both.

Sandra Bullock

The famous Hollywood beauty Sandra Bullock had to experience all the “delights” herself. adultery. To tell the truth, looking at the couple Bullock and Jesse James, it is difficult to imagine what such a pretty and calm woman and a brutal, slightly daring and tattooed man could have in common. It was this opinion that Jesse’s mistress, model Michelle McGee, with whom Sandra’s then-official husband had an affair, adhered to. However, apparently, the actress herself learned about the adventures of her unfaithful husband several days earlier, before this news spread across all the Hollywood tabloids. Sandra herself initiated the divorce, and McGee, taking advantage of the popularity that had fallen on her, began giving out interviews with all her might, in which she described in every detail her intimate relationship with James.

Tori Spelling

It seemed that the daughter of the king of Hollywood television series, media mogul Aaron Spelling, was destined for a bright and happy married life. However, fate decreed otherwise: the star’s husband, actor Dean McDermott, cheated on his wife with his fan. Which, by the way, the latter willingly and thoroughly talked about in an interview. However, this is not the first case of McDermott’s infidelity: the actor repeatedly went on sprees. And this despite the fact that he and Tori have four children growing up. But socialite once again forgave her husband and even tried to earn a considerable amount of money from this. The couple filmed six episodes of a reality show about their own relationship called “Truth Tory.” True, the show’s ratings are unknown, however, we think that a tearful and frank story will always be interesting to viewers.

Perhaps one of the most terrible problems a person can get into is addiction. And stars are no exception, they are the same people with their weaknesses.

website I chose strong-willed celebrities, those who were able to conquer themselves and get rid of bad habits.

Angelina Jolie

“I have tried almost every substance known in the world. I did have some very dark times."

Who would have thought, that these are the words of one of the most beautiful women planets? But Angelina Jolie's biography is full of bitter experience: she suffered from anorexia and depression. Before the film “Lara Croft” Angie is already “clean”, and after it real popularity falls on the actress, she adopts a child, starts an affair with Brad Pitt, and adopts another one. Angelina surrounds herself with people for whom she would like to live.

Robert Downey Jr

To a charismatic young man a brilliant future was predicted from the film family, but Robert could not stand the test of the first wave of popularity and went into all serious troubles. Wild days and nights resulted in scandals and high-profile dismissals in the studios, serious problems with the law and difficulties with the family.

Sentenced to 16 months in prison And compulsory treatment, the actor goes to the clinic for almost a year and after leaving, he firmly decides not to use anymore. Friends help with roles, critics are favorable, and quite deservedly, after the triumph of “Iron Man,” Robert is already dictating the terms of the contract to Hollywood bosses.

And who knows what awards Robert Downey Jr. would now have on his record if not for his destructive passion.

Adele

At the very beginning of her career, Adele was very worried about how she looked on stage and began drinking before the show for courage. Unnoticed, this habit grew into a real problem.

“Once I got so drunk that when I had to go on stage, I forgot the words to my own songs. It was the worst evening of my life."

Anthony Hopkins

“When I was young, it seemed that drinking helped me loosen up, feel free, and therefore play better. Many actors think so. And they are wrong,” admitted Anthony Hopkins.

In 1964 he got a job at the National Theater and was sacked for drunkenness that same year. “For fifteen years I drank everything I couldn’t bite,” says the actor.

One day Anthony woke up behind the wheel of his car in a completely unfamiliar place and could not remember how he got there. “I periodically fell asleep while driving. But I could run over someone.” At this point, the actor decided to quit drinking.

“Alcohol almost killed me. If I hadn’t given up, I would be lying somewhere in Mexico right now. IN best case scenario under a fence, at worst, buried under a cactus.”

Now the artist is 79 years old, he has not drunk for 41 years - almost half his life.

Drew Barrymore

The girl became wildly popular early on, and the young actress, unnoticed by herself and those around her, became addicted to alcohol by the age of 13, gradually making the reverse transformation - from a beautiful swan to the ugly duckling of Hollywood. Countless scandals, hysterics, and an overdose eventually led to Drew’s 8-month imprisonment in the clinic.

After leaving the hospital, she writes poignant and mature memoirs beyond her years, works part-time as a waitress, model, and re-blazes the trail to Hollywood. Today, Drew is a sought-after actress, the owner of her own film studio and the mother of two charming daughters.

When asked what helped her avoid depression, she invariably answers: “Sometimes life brings you to your knees. Well, this is a suitable posture for prayer.”

Eminem

"Hi, my name is Marshall and I'm a drug addict"- says the rapper in one of the documentaries. One day he mixed up the drugs and suffered an overdose; only the surgical intervention of doctors saved him.

A sense of responsibility for my own and two adopted daughters helped me get out of the hole of addiction. Today Eminem is an exemplary father, and his only passion remains music.

Kristin Davis

The actress had stage fright and began drinking for courage. Sip after sip, and Christine did not notice how by the age of 25 she had turned into a real alcoholic.

Her best friend I couldn’t stay away and decided to help - I signed Christine up for Alcoholics Anonymous and yoga courses. It worked - since then she has never relapsed and even wanted to refuse the role in “Sex in big city”, when she found out that according to the script she had to drink cocktails all day long. “I was afraid to even allow myself a glass of wine,” recalls Christine. - I feel great without alcohol and don’t want to take any risks.”

Daniel Radcliffe

The success of the Harry Potter films did not allow the actor to lead a normal life, and he began to sink into depression. On the set of the latest film about the adventures of Potter, Daniel often appeared drunk.

In 2015, Daniel Radcliffe admitted that he suffers from alcohol addiction.“When I drank, I became a completely different person. Sometimes it got to the point where I could wake up in the morning in an unfamiliar apartment. I had constant breakdowns and went on binges. One day I went for a walk and stayed outside for about 5 hours. During this time I didn't feel like drinking. Then I realized that I needed to go for a walk fresh air and play sports. I work out every day and now I don’t drink at all.”

Samuel L. Jackson

Samuel feltcravings to acting in his youth and transferred to the drama department. After graduating from university, he tried himself for years in cinema, theater, and television, but was not successful anywhere - directors simply refused to work with him because of Samuel’s addiction to alcohol and drugs. By the end of the 80s, the actor naturally ended up in a rehabilitation center.

The hardest moment in life Jackson considers the episode in the hospital when, looking into the eyes of his daughter and wife, he said: “Hi, I'm Sam, and I'm a drug addict.”

After treatment, Sam starred in more than 100 films, won many prestigious awards and, of course, became an exemplary husband and father.

Kelly Osbourne

Addictions Kelly probably inherited genetically from the great and terrible dad Ozzy. Let's add psychological problems and we get a famous girl who takes dozens of pills every day, sometimes replacing them with other substances. Dissatisfaction with herself grew, so did her weight, the dose increased, and during the last treatment, in order not to relapse, she took up recording an album and playing sports.

Kelly looks great now look at it instagram! We can say that the freaky girl has become a modern, confident woman.

Sting


- the lifestyle of young Stephen. It was necessary to look for a more unhinged popular rocker, but after 20 years of revelry, already with his second wife, he was still able to get rid of his addictions.

Britney was saved by her father, who took full control of her affairs into his own hands.. He broke the singer’s old ties, won the right to see the children, and gradually, surrounded by close people, Britney began to come to her senses.

The singer, who almost lost her children, career and family, managed to recover from drug addiction and successfully returned to musical activity.

In 2012, the actor fell in love with his young co-star in The Rum Diary, Amber Heard. The actress became the reason for his separation from Vanessa Paradis, who received $160 million from the cheater. The couple was never officially married, but no one could have imagined that this family would one day cease to exist. Magazines devoted articles beautiful story love between Vanessa and Johnny, and the latter, in turn, passionately talked about his feelings for the mother of his two children. But what struck us most was the fact that after 14 years civil marriage with Vanessa and refusal to walk down the aisle, Depp officially married Heard after a couple of years of romance! In May, it became known that Amber filed for divorce after 15 months of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason.

The heart of Elizaveta Boyarskaya remained free for a long time, despite the enviable number of fans. The girl waited patiently for her one and only - and she did. Once on TV she saw the film “Vise” with Maxim Matveev and immediately lost her head.

Boyarskaya was not stopped by distance (Max lives in Moscow, and Lisa lives in St. Petersburg), nor by the wife of her chosen one, Latvian actress Yana Sexte. A love fever also gripped Matveev, who quickly divorced and a few months later was already heading down the aisle with Elizabeth.

Robin Moore and Oksana Grigorieva

Wife and lover Mela Gibson
Pianist Oksana Grigorieva became a real test in the life of actor Mel Gibson.

Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie

Brad Pitt's wives
The story of how Jolie stole her husband from Jennifer Aniston allowed T-shirt manufacturers to make good money in 2006 (remember the T-shirts with the words Team Aniston and Team Jolie?). And although the culprit of the scandal herself always claimed that Pitt, tired of his marriage to Aniston, himself came into her arms on the set of the film “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” this is hard to believe.

Before meeting Pitt, Angelina was a famous thief of men's hearts. Playing fatal beauties on screen, Jolie was famous in real life for her two sudden marriages and her ability to beat off other people's boyfriends. So, in 1999, her victim was Billy Bob Thornton, a colleague in the film “Flight Control.” Love instantly broke out between the partners, but actress Laura Dern was left behind: Thornton promised his friend a wedding for three years, but eventually ran away to Angie.

Arshavin did not even deny the fact of his campaigns “to the left”! And a few months after the birth of the boy, Arsenia completely left the family for model Alisa Kazmina, with whom he is now officially married and awaiting the birth of his first child together.

Irina Meladze and Albina Dzhanabaeva

Wives of Valery Meladze
It all started even before Albina began singing in VIA Gre - the unmarried backing vocalist gave birth to a son, Konstantin, but she did not disclose the father’s name.

Thanks to producer Konstantin Meladze, the girl ended up in VIA Gro, where she stayed for 8 years. At the end of the 2000s, rumors began to circulate in the press about Albina’s secret relationship with Valery Meladze, which was confirmed by trio member Tatyana Kotova. Kotova also said that she had to leave the group in 2009 because of Dzhanabaeva, who began to be jealous of the new member of her man.

Most of all in this love affair, the public was outraged that Meladze led a double life for more than ten years: in addition to Albina, his wife Irina was in his life, who gave birth to three daughters in marriage.

In 2014, Valery filed for divorce from his wife and began to live openly with Albina, who gave birth to his second son, Luka.

Apparently, the new Vera worked so well with her boss that even then rumors began to appear about a connection between the producer and his ward. Despite the fact that the celebrities carefully hid their romance, the crowd still started talking about their mutual sympathy. The intensity of the situation was added by the fact that all this time Meladze Sr. was married to Yana Summ, and Vera in 2006 became the official wife of businessman Mikhail Kiperman, whom she divorced in 2012. A year later, Konstantin Meladze also left his wife. Soon after the divorce, Vera purchased an apartment in the center of Kyiv, which she shared not only with her daughters Sonya and Sarah, but also with her secret lover.

Princess Diana and Duchess Camilla Parker

Prince Charles' wives
Prince Charles and Diana met when she was 16. The heir to the throne was then having an affair with older sister Diana - Sarah.

On February 6, 1981, Diana accepted the prince’s proposal, and on July 29 they got married in St. Paul’s Cathedral. Despite the birth of two beautiful boys, Princes William and Harry, family life turned out to be unlucky. Charles's long-term affair with married lady Camilla Parker-Bowles, which Diana learned about after the wedding, resumed in the mid-80s. Insulted, Diana became close to James Hewitt, a riding instructor. Tensions increased when recordings of telephone conversations between both spouses and their lovers were leaked to the press. Numerous interviews followed, during which Charles and Diana blamed each other for the breakdown of their union. “There were too many people in my marriage,” the princess joked sadly. Diana died in a car accident in 1997, and 9 years after her death, Charles married Camilla.

Francis Tomelty and Trudie Styler

Sting's Wives
The musician’s romance with the actress cost both dearly: her relationship with married man and cost the young father his career and his reputation. For Trudy, Sting left his wife almost immediately after the birth of their second child in 1982. However, both found the most important thing - the love of their lives. Then a wave of public indignation hit the couple, so the decision to finally leave his wife and start living with Trudy was not easy for Sting. Maybe it was precisely because they did not want to attract unnecessary attention from gossipers that the lovers abandoned the wedding? Trudy and Sting legalized their relationship 10 years after Sting’s divorce from his first wife. At that time, the couple already had three children. In 1995, Trudy gave birth to her fourth child with the musician, and yesterday’s critics had no doubt that the guys made the only right decision - to be together.
