People's Artist of the USSR Lev Konstantinovich Durov never got married again after the death of his wife. The last years of his life were adorned by his assistant and director Oksana Radchenko, whose photo is presented below. When they met, Durov was 68 years old, and Oksana was only 27. This happened in 1999, when they traveled around the country with the non-repertory performance "Athenian Evenings".
Introduction
Oksana was then an assistant director. Durov really liked Radchenko, because he was then a very famous actor. At that time, the play they played was wildly popular. Durov's partner in the role was the wonderful actress Olga Aroseva. At the end of the performance, as it should be, cheerful general gatherings were arranged, where everyone adored Durov, he was the soul of the company, an inexhaustible inventor and narrator of funny anecdotes and stories. It was with this kindness and openness that he once bribed the young Oksana, because she was still that laughter and loved to humor herself.
Oksana Radchenko+Lev Durov
AboutTwo years later, Oksana got a job at the Theater on Malaya Bronnaya as an assistant director, where Master Durov played. And in 2002, Lev Konstantinovich himself invited Oksana to become his personal assistant. When Durov's wife Irina Nikolaevna was still alive, Oksana knew her, she always greeted her when they met and called her "my girl." At the end of 2000, when Durova became very ill, Lev had to work hard and tour in order to earn money for his family. At that moment, Oksana turned out to be a close person for him, who at first was afraid to approach him, since he was a celestial being for her. Radchenko told her friend about him with great rapture, since they spent a lot of time together with the actor. Oksana soon had to give up her job. She became more than an assistant for Durov, he called her “my girl” behind her back.
In 2011, Durov became a widower, and then he began to go out with Oksana, holding hands, which then many paid attention to. Oksana began to visit him in the apartment on Frunzenskaya, came to his dacha, and, of course, she took on some of the household issues, although her son-in-law's sister helped him most of all with the housework.
Care
Most likely, Lev Konstantinovich invited Radchenko to be his assistant because of his age, he just needed attention and care, and Oksana was able to provide it. Friends said that they were not bored together and even fun and interesting. What connected them, no one undertakes to assert, since they believe that it was their own business. Soover time, many began to consider her a common-law wife and wondered why they had not officially signed yet. He answered these questions by saying that marrying at his age would only make people laugh. Probably, he was still shy, because after all, the age difference was huge - 41 years. And he, of course, was afraid of condemnation, and it was against his nature to build Don Juan out of himself. In addition, Lev Konstantinovich was very afraid of offending his only daughter Catherine, since he considered himself indebted to her. He and his wife often went on tour, and their daughter was brought up in a boarding school. For this, Durov reproached himself greatly and therefore tried to please Katya and always helped her with money.
Oksana Radchenko: biography, photo
Almost nothing is known about Oksana Radchenko herself. It is a pity that she was fastened to Lev Konstantinovich as if on a pin and spent her young years on him. When he fell ill, Oksana was a nurse near him, during a fatal heart attack she was also nearby, called an ambulance, but then Durov ended up in intensive care, and she was not allowed to see him. In the hospital, his daughter Katya was next to him. Some said that he never regained consciousness, but his daughter claims that he was able to say goodbye to her, and, alas, no one will know what he would like to say to Oksana, since Ekaterina does not want to talk about her.
After the death of Lev Durov, Oksana could not find a place for herself, she walked like a living corpse, often lay and cried. To survive the pain of loss helped films with hisparticipation. Now Ekaterina Durova works at the Theater on Malaya Bronnaya, and she does not even want to hear about her. Oksana was fired from the theater almost immediately, and it was as if the 12 years she spent with Durov never existed. On this occasion, she does not give any interviews. Oksana Radchenko has not yet found a new job and has not married, she gave her youth to her beloved idol…
