The trick of the artist became public.
Igor Kostolevsky was married to Elena Romanova, but unexpectedly fell in love. Then the actor was 50 years old, and he managed to radically change his life.
The new chosen one of the artist was a foreign actress. Kostolevsky laid eyes on the Frenchwoman Consuelo de Aviland, whom he met at one of the performances at the Pushkin Theater.
During a banquet arranged by the artists following the performance, the screen star did not dare to speak to a colleague, but when she was regarding to leave, he realized that he might no longer hesitate. Kostolevsky intended to ask for Consuelo’s phone number, but he might not limit himself to this and went for broke.
“He kissed me on the lips in front of everyone,” the Frenchwoman later said as part of the Exclusive TV show. At the same time, she clarified that she did not immediately understand what exactly happened. As it turned out, the celebrity took the incident as a tribute to the Russian tradition, remembering that Leonid Brezhnev also “kissed everyone on the lips.”
In the end, the artist achieved his goal and married Consuelo. The actress moved to Russia, where she converted to Orthodoxy and became Evdokia.
