The 55-year-old actress showed the boy.
In January, the most smiling actress of our cinema celebrated her 55th birthday. During the preparation of the anniversary film, it suddenly turned out: it turns out that Dapkunaite has a little son, whose existence even people from her inner circle did not know! Where did this baby come from?
The TV movie “Everything that they write about me is not true” has become a real revelation for many. No, the actress did not talk about her personal life.
However, the program ended in a very intriguing way: already in the last frames, Dapkunaite called a little boy named Alex to her and, embracing him, left. Leaving everyone wondering: who is it? How? Why?..
SECRETS OF PERSONAL LIFE
Ingeborg's personal life, on the one hand, has always been open to the public, on the other hand, it had many white stripes. For example, the actress talked everywhere and everywhere about her happy marriage to British director Simon Stokes. However, later it suddenly turned out that there was also a first marriage - with fellow student Arunas Sakalauskas, about whom the actress had not said a word for all this time.
However, she also managed to hide the divorce from Simon Stokes for quite some time. Only when Inge began an affair with director Emir Kusturica (they say that for the sake of Dapkunaite he left his family), it became known that she was already divorced from her English husband.
The wedding with restaurateur and lawyer Dmitry Yampolsky also took place in the strictest secrecy. It happened in London, in 2013, the year of the 50th anniversary of the actress. They say that the guests signed specially prepared papers stating that they undertake not to disclose the details of the holiday. In any case, the general public learned about the fact of marriage only after a while. And then the not-so-pleasant details came to light. It turns out that at the time of the meeting of Ingeborga and Dmitry, the latter was married to actress Olesya Potashinskaya, and the couple had a daughter. But for the sake of an affair with Dapkunaite, he left his family.
Olesya then fell into a depression, from which she did not come out soon. And although, in the end, she was able to forgive her ex-husband, she still prefers to ignore his new wife.
After a while, we resumed normal relations with him - after all, we have a common daughter. And of course, I don’t communicate with Ingeborg. Although I do not deny that she is a talented, punchy and strong artist, she says. And, after a pause, he adds: - No, after all, she was very lucky with my Dima.
"I PREFER SEX"
For a long time, Ingeborg Dapkunaite was considered a childfree - people who deliberately refuse to have children. The actress herself, when she was asked questions about procreation, only smiled and joked: they say she prefers sex.
True, 15 years ago there were rumors that Inge was expecting a baby. Then the TV people let slip that Dapkunaite refused to be the host of one extreme TV show. The reason was serious: the shooting was planned in Africa, but they were not allowed there without mandatory vaccinations. Here are just some of these vaccinations that are contraindicated for pregnant women ... In short, Ingeborga secretly told the organizers of the program that she was expecting a child, so vaccinations are not for her yet. This news did not get into the media then, and there were some problems with the birth of the first child ...
Well, now, when Ingeborga showed her unexpectedly grown-up son Alex, the network immediately began to discuss whether this is an adopted son, or a surrogate mother gave birth to him. The option “she gave birth herself” was not even considered, mostly they leaned towards the version with surrogate motherhood. Indeed, recently our celebrities have increasingly begun to resort to the services of surrogate mothers. If earlier it was a complicated process (it is enough to read the old interviews of Alena Apina), now everything has been simplified.
"WE HAVE GREAT CHILDREN!"
True, Dapkunaite refused to talk about surrogate motherhood, answering with a phrase from the film: "Everything that is said on this topic is not true."
ONLY SHE KNEW ABOUT THE SON
The most surprising thing is that in the course of these discussions, an interview with psychic Natalya Vorotnikova five years ago never surfaced. In general, Vorotnikova, the winner of the Battle of Psychics, is considered a real soothsayer. Usually everything she tells about the future of our stars comes true. So, in 2013, when Ingeborga just got married, Natalya said: “The most important joy in the life of an actress is yet to come: Ingeborga will give birth to a child in the next two years. I see that the higher powers gave the go-ahead for this. Her son will grow up smart and talented, marry well and have two children.”
Considering that the baby shown in the film is about two years old, it turns out that the psychic was not mistaken again? ..

Ingeborga Dapkunaite is a Lithuanian theater and film actress. Although is it only Lithuanian? She is Russian, but British, and Hollywood. The actress of the world - you can say so, and this will not be an exaggeration.
Ingeborg was born on January 20, 1963 in the capital of Lithuania - Vilnius. She was the eldest of all the children in the family. Parents, by virtue of duty, lived separately, in Moscow. His father was a diplomat, and his mother was a meteorologist. Ingeborg could visit them only during the holidays. However, the girl did not grow up abandoned, on the contrary, she was surrounded by love and care by her grandparents, aunt and uncle. My aunt and uncle worked as musicians in a theater orchestra, and my grandmother worked as an administrator at the Opera and Ballet Theatre.
Since childhood, the girl loved to sing and dance and even performed arias from operas and scenes from ballets while playing with toys. As a result, it turned out that she was on stage at the age of 4. This happened at the behest of her grandmother, and she played the son of Madame Butterfly. Then there were other roles of small characters in different performances. Ingeborga liked to dance and create, she was impressed by movement and activity, so she made progress in sports, figure skating and basketball. But at the same time she also attended a theater studio in the local Palace of Trade Unions. At school, she studied the most ordinary, average, while she was not noticeable in it, rather, on the contrary, modest and quiet.
After graduating from school, the girl had a choice: either the theater department at the conservatory, or the Institute of Foreign Languages. The choice resolved itself - the entrance exams to the conservatory took place a month earlier, she passed them and was enrolled, although she could not then say for sure whether she had made the right choice. Ingeborg did not like her own appearance, she found fault with herself, like many girls at that age, but she believed that everything was in order with her talent, and this was how she would win success. Plus perseverance and hard work.
After graduating from high school, she went to work at the Kaunas Drama Theater. After some time, participation in the Vilnius Academic Theater and in the Youth Lithuanian Theater joined this work.
During these years, Inga married a Lithuanian actor for the first time. True, the marriage did not last long.
While working in the theater, she met John Malkovich, an American director, producer and actor. He invited her to play in London, in the play "Mistake of Speech", first for auditions. She went there more out of curiosity, since she had never been in this city before. However, the trip turned out to be fateful. She was invited to the main role, and besides, she met Simon Stokes, an English director, who later became her husband for ten years. Their wedding was modest, the young people practically did not arrange celebrations, they just had fun with friends and actors of the troupe for a couple of hours in the foyer of the theater and that same evening they left for France for the wedding of their younger sister Ingeborga.
Ingeborga Dapkunaite, career
In the movie, the actress began acting in 1984, and since then every year she has been very actively involved in films of various genres. In 1993, she made her Hollywood debut in the film " Alaska Kid».
Later in American cinema, she played in several films where her partners were Tom Cruise (" mission Impossible”) and Brad Pitt (“ Seven years in Tibet»).
She also actively starred in Russian cinema. She got very diverse roles. The actress is different from all the actresses of Russian cinema, she has her own, inimitable manner and charming accent. True, which is unusual for Russian directors, she is a very sensible actress, which is reflected in the performance of her roles.
After divorce from Simon Stokes she had a stormy romance with a world famous director Emir Kusturica which lasted for several years.
The relationship was stunningly romantic, despite the significant age difference.
Now Ingeborg is in his third marriage with a lawyer and a restaurateur Dmitry Yampolsky The wedding took place in February 2013.

As a child, Ingeborg was always surrounded by love. Firstly, she was the first child in the family - it was then that the younger ones appeared, but it was she who got the cream. Secondly, dad was a diplomat and he and his mother (meteorologist) lived abroad for a long time, so that little Ingeborga did not have the slightest feeling that she was being left or abandoned, grandparents, as well as aunt and uncle (musicians in a theater orchestra) did everything so that she did not even feel the long absence of her parents.
In her childhood games, Ingeborg played ballets and operas with her toys, singing each part with a different voice. How could she choose, besides the acting profession, something else? At the age of four, her grandmother, who worked at the Vilnius Opera House, took her to her theater. There Ingeborg began to play - either the son of Madame Butterfly, then the imp in Faust, then the angel in The Demon. Then there was "The Queen of Spades" and other children's roles in theater performances.
After school, Dapkunaite decided to try to enter the theater department of the conservatory, although the stage was not the ultimate dream. She was also going to enter the Institute of Foreign Languages - it was just that the exams at the conservatory were a month earlier. Mom was glad that Ingeborg entered the conservatory - after all, she herself wanted to be an actress.
In childhood and adolescence, Ingeborg was very critical of her appearance: it seemed to her that she was too thin, then her legs were crooked, or her hair was too greasy. I never felt beautiful and every time I found myself in front of a mirror, I consoled myself: “Well, nothing, of course, you were not lucky with your appearance, but you will take it with talent. You will work hard, work, and then everyone will see how wonderful you are.”
Theater
In 1985, Dapkunaite, having graduated from the faculty of choral and theatrical arts, the course of Jonas Vaitkus of the Lithuanian Conservatory, became an actress of the Kaunas Drama Theater, then the Vilnius Academic and Youth Lithuanian Theater of Eymuntas Nyakroshus, where she played in the performances of the island's "Seagull", Gogol's "Nose", rehearsed Cordelia in "King Lear", "Carmen" and others.
The later works of Ingeborge Dapkunaite include foreign productions: "Mistake of Speech" with John Malkovich, the Chicago "Libra" and, of course, the infamous performance "Vagina Monologues", in which Ingeborge read three monologues, three stories - about a woman who came to a workshop on orgasms, about rape and about childbirth. And, as the actress admits, it was not at all difficult to pronounce such texts from the stage - success always helps, and the performance was very successful. Yes, the performance touched on shocking topics, but it is actually very kind and absolutely not vulgar.
Wedding. Personal life
Dapkunaite played at the Vilnius Drama Theater when she received an invitation from London to take part in auditions for a role in the play "Speech Error" with the participation of the famous John Malkovich. I went to London out of curiosity - I had never been there before. Then she met director Simon Stokes. And although she returned home three days later, she was soon called to play the main role. She doubted for a long time, but the theater director, the famous Eimuntas Nyakroshyus, advised her to go, saying that this trip could change her fate.
Best of the day
At first she played in London. Then she traveled around the world with the performance for almost eight months. Simon was there all the time. Their wedding was not typical: they did not get married in a church, but only went through official registration. Then, in the foyer of the theater where Simon worked, they gathered friends and acquaintances and had fun for a couple of hours. By six in the evening everyone had gone about their business. The newlyweds went by car to France, where the younger sister of the actress was getting married. And a day after her return, she flew off to shoot with Valera Todorovsky.
Since then, the couple have not participated in some projects. Ingeborga does not want to play with her husband just because she is his wife - “I didn’t want to,” says Ingeborga, “So that he put on a performance for me just because he is my husband. Perhaps someday there will be a project that we want to implement together. For now, although we want to, there is no time for this, because each of us has some kind of creative plans and obligations scheduled in advance. " Nevertheless, Ingeborga does not deny that she will be happy to play with her husband if there is a good role for her in the production.
The couple have a great time together - they go on long hikes in the mountains, visit interesting places ... "We also go to football. I love it. My favorite teams are Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United - I know everything. And all the players Same." says Ingeborg.
In cinema - since 1984
Ingeborga made her film debut as a student with the role of Aukse in the film of the Lithuanian film studio "My Little Wife" (dir. R. Banionis). In Lithuania, she played with Eymuntas Nyakroshyus, in Russia she starred in several melodramas ("Coincidence"; "Autumn, Chertanovo ..."), where she surprised with an unexpected detachment for the genre. This "detachment" has become a trademark of Ingeborga Dapkunaite. In 1989, she played Kisulya, a limited prostitute, in Pyotr Todorovsky's "Intergirl", the only film of ours where the Baltic accent was used by the director as a simple, provincial one.
For the role of Olga in the film Cynics (dir. D. Meskhiev), Ingeborga received the Golden Aries award. In the role of Katya Izmailova in Evenings near Moscow (dir. V. Todorovsky) and Musya in Burnt by the Sun (dir. N. Mikhalkov, Oscar, 1995), Dapkunaite appeared as a mature actress of a serious dramatic, if not tragic, warehouse.
Femme fatale
After a prostitute in Intergirl and a role in Cynics, Ingeborg firmly took the vacancy of a femme fatale, although there was an initial contradiction in choosing Dapkunaite for the role of a femme fatale. First, she was not Russian, did not look like a Russian, and spoke with a thick accent. Secondly, it felt unusual for Russian cinema restraint and coldness. Third, her approach to the role has always been analytical, not intuitive. However, it was precisely these contradictions that intrigued "new Russian" directors such as Dmitry Meskhiev and Valery Todorovsky. It is not surprising that none of them began to dub Ingeborg and hide her foreign accent.
By choosing Ingeborg for the role of Katya Izmailova in "Moscow Evenings", Todorovsky Jr. thereby set the concept of the film: no passions to shreds in Russian, the Chabrolev melancholy of a black film and a heroine whose feelings are hidden so deep that she looks almost insensitive. In "Moscow Nights" Dapkunaite's duality and closeness coincided with the director's intention, but in her next film - "Burnt by the Sun" - they were perceived as a hindrance. Her obvious “Westernness” did not fit the role of a Russian aristocrat, and her usual brevity of acting means was discordant with the general melodramatic tone and charisma of her partners. It seems that Nikita Mikhalkov was not completely satisfied with the work of the actress. In several interviews, he called Ingeborg an exceptionally professional, but too rational actress.
The fact that it was Dapkunaite with her unusual appearance, unusual acting school and unusual pronunciation that became our leading heroine demonstrates some weariness from the traditions of "Russian soulfulness" and a craving for the Western idea of professionalism. Another thing is that she did not fit into Russian cinema absolutely organically, remaining an exotic character, "another woman."
Hollywood. Western cinema
Not only the "Oscar" of "Burnt by the Sun", but also an extraordinary talent and high professionalism allowed Dapkunaite to step from Russian and European film sets to Hollywood. Here she starred in the film "Mission Impossible" (dir. B. de Palma), where her partner was Tom Cruise. In the film "Seven Years in Tibet" (dir. J.-J. Agno) she played Ingrid - the wife of the protagonist, played by Brad Pitt.
In March 2004, the premiere of the Russian-French film "Winter Heat" took place, shot by the Belgian film director Stephane Vuille (with the participation of the CTB film company). Dapkunaite played the main role in it - the Ukrainian girl Sonya, who from her native Odessa decided to go to Belgium for a better share and her husband who left there. And in the end I found a new love.

Ingeborg Dapkunaite
svetik 14.02.2009 12:55:16
Looked "Smak" with your participation. You are amazing, I love you! I wanted a delicious pudding casserole!)))
One of the few actresses in the post-Soviet space who were able to make themselves known in Hollywood is 55-year-old Ingeborga Dapkunaite.
An attractive and infinitely talented woman, multiple winner of prestigious film awards in the Best Actress nomination, an actress who was awarded the title of Honored Artist of the Lithuanian SSR shortly before the collapse of the Soviet Union. In her filmography there are famous Soviet, Russian and Hollywood films, and in life there are many bright events.
The biography of Ingeborga Dapkunaite will tell about all this. You will also find out what the movie star has been doing in recent years and whether it is true that Ingeborga Dapkunaite became a mother.
Early life
The future star of domestic and foreign cinema spent her childhood and youth in her hometown of Vilnius, in Lithuania. There she was born in early 1963 (the exact date of birth of a celebrity is January 20, 1963). There are not so many people who spent their childhood like Ingeborga Dapkunaite.
Her parents were intelligent and respected people who occupied far from the last place in society. The father of the future actress (whose nationality is Lithuanian), Petras-Edmundas Dapkunas, was a diplomat. And my mother, Ingeborga Sabalite, worked as a meteorologist at the hydrometeorological center.
Acting talent in the girl began to wake up in early childhood. Most likely, this was facilitated by the fact that Ingeborg's aunt and grandmother worked at the Vilnius Opera House. And already at the age of 4, Inga made her debut on his stage in the opera production of Puccini's Cio-Cio-San. The first performance of the heroine of our story was so enchanting and unforgettable that the young artist immediately got a role in another performance.
Even after these first roles, the girl became a popular theater star, who received many attractive offers. So, in the active creative activity, which Ingeborga Dapkunaite combined with her studies at school, the early years of her youth passed.
Youth and flowering of creative activity
After graduating from school, the talented girl applied for admission to the Lithuanian State Conservatory and in 1980 became a student of the Faculty of Theater Arts and Choral Arts, enrolling in a course led by the famous Lithuanian director, actor and teacher Jonas Vaitkus.
The very next year she was lucky enough to participate in three different film projects of Lithuanian directors. These were the films: "Electronic Grandma", "Night Whispers" and "Zodiac". Even then, Ingeborga Edmundovna Dapkunaite successfully combined her work in cinema with participation in theatrical productions, because immediately after graduating from the conservatory, she began working at the Drama Theater in Kaunas.
After some time, the talented rising movie star returned to Vilnius again and got a job at the Youth Theater, where she worked until 1990. At that time, the audience could see a variety of performances with the participation of our heroine ("The Seagull", "King Lear", "Hunger", etc.).
At the same time, the Lithuanian actress received invitations to shoot and, if possible, tried to agree to them. In 1987 alone, four films were released on Soviet screens in which our heroine was involved. Her popularity grew, and the fame of the actress Ingeborg Dapkunaite spread throughout the entire Soviet Union.
In total, the filmography of the movie star consists of 62 films, including sensational Russian TV series and full-length films, as well as Hollywood action games. And this is far from the limit, because 55-year-old Ingeborga Dapkunaite, who now lives abroad, continues to receive invitations to shoot.
In the last two years alone, Ingeborga Dapkunaite has graced as many as seven films with her participation. Information about which films with the participation of the Lithuanian-Russian movie star were filmed abroad is offered by Wikipedia on the biography page of Ingeborga.
Private life is not for cameras
Ingeborga Edmundovna has always led a rather modest life, trying not to advertise her hobbies and not to make her private life public. Her name is not so often included in the news of social life. Despite this, the personal life of the actress has always interested her fans and viewers of the Soviet generation. Moreover, the movie star got married three times, and all her husbands were very popular personalities.
A talented film actress, a star of domestic and foreign cinema, met her first husband as a student. Arunas Sakalauskas was a classmate of our heroine who managed to win her heart. The lovers registered their marriage a few months after they met. But soon their relationship failed, and the couple, having filed for a divorce, decided to remain friends.
The second time down the aisle of Ingeborg Dapkunaite went completely unexpectedly. After the first divorce, Ingeborg Edmundovna rushed headlong into work, actively acting in films and playing in the Youth Theater. While working in the next production, the actress received an offer from her stage partner, who was John Malkovich, to audition at the London Theater to participate in the play "Speech Error".
Having gone there, Ingeborga Dapkunaite successfully passed the casting and met her fate at the very first rehearsal - Simon Stokes. Their relationship developed rapidly, and soon Ingeborga Dapkunaite and the director of Mistakes of Speech, Simon Stokes, decided to get married. After the wedding, the actress decided to stay in the British capital and get a new citizenship.
Ingeborga Dapkunaite and Emir Kusturica began to speak openly about their relationship only in 2009, when both were already officially free. The novel of two celebrities lasted about four years. Ingeborga Dapkunaite and the children of her lover from a previous marriage got along well. Kusturica planned to propose to Inge, but this did not happen for unknown reasons.
Secrets of personal life
After this relationship, Ingeborg began to hide her personal life more carefully. Therefore, there is no exact information when Ingeborga Dapkunaite and Dmitry Yampolsky (her current husband) began to meet. The wedding of the actress with a famous restaurateur and lawyer took place in 2013, on the eve of Valentine's Day.
The son of Dmitry and Ingeborga, whose name is Alex, was born a little over a year ago. But for the first time, the media learned about him only recently, after the celebration of the 55th anniversary of the actress. In honor of the movie star's birthday, Channel One organized a surprise for Ingeborga Dapkunaite - a documentary about the life of a talented Lithuanian.
At its premiere, Ingeborga Dapkunaite and her son, one-year-old baby Alex, appeared together for the first time in public. Before that, few people were aware of such dramatic changes in the personal life of the actress. Especially since recently she tried not to give interviews.
Recall that this year the actress turned 55 years old. Despite his age, Ingeborga Dapkunaite has an excellent physical shape and attractive appearance. Not surprisingly, her beauty secrets (which include proper nutrition and regular exercise) are of interest to many fans of the movie star.
Currently, Ingeborga Dapkunaite, whose latest news from her life often appears in domestic and foreign media, is still actively working. She takes part in the filming of new films, from time to time appears in entertainment television shows. But the famous blonde now devotes most of her time to her family and little son. Author: Elena Suvorova
Most likely, in our country there will hardly be at least one person who has never watched "Burnt by the Sun" or "Mission Impossible" once in his life. Oddly enough, the connecting link of these paintings was a fragile and small woman with a radiant smile - the actress Ingeborga Dapkunaite. For her creative biography, she achieved not just recognition, but world fame and employment not only in the films of Russian and native Lithuanian directors, but also in theatrical productions and films of British and Hollywood celebrities. With all this, personal life, children of Ingeborga Dapkunaite always shrouded in clouds of total mystery, which the actress is in no hurry to dispel.
It seemed that Fate itself had prepared for the girl, almost all of whose environment in childhood belonged to the acting environment (grandmother, grandfather, uncle and aunt), with the exception of her parents, an artistic career, although she herself at first cherished completely different plans - playing sports, then ballet and even the Faculty of Foreign Languages. Ingeborga Dapkunaite's connection with the theater stage began at the age of four, when she sang her small part on the stage of the opera house, and continues to this day. Any role that this little woman takes on turns into a kind of masterpiece. Now, when Ingeborga Dapkunaite is already 53 years old, and age is completely unreadable on her face and figure, the beauty of the actress seems to be an absolutely indisputable fact. And therefore it is difficult to believe that in her youth she herself considered herself very gray and nondescript. Thanks to this, apparently, she devoted so much energy to the development of artistry and acting talent, with which she wanted to compensate for her not too bright appearance.

Despite this prejudice, Ingeborga Dapkunaite's personal life did not suffer from this at all. For the first time, the actress married her colleague at the Kaunas Drama Theater Arunas Sakalauskas, with whom she still maintains friendly relations. The second husband was the theater director Simon Stokes. This marriage broke up in 2009. Since Ingeborg Dapkunaite did not acquire children in either her first or second marriage, this is what is considered to be the official version of divorces. What is the reason, in fact, we may never know, since the ex-husbands of the actress, at her request, also do not seek to disclose the details of family life with a celebrity. In the biography of Ingeborga Dapkunaite, for several years, there was also an affair with the legendary Baltic director Emir Kusturica, because of which the master's family broke up.
