With their talent they have long won the love of a multimillion audience and have become one of the most famous to the whole world of hereditary trainers. Each of them has his own personal and family life, which they, in general, carefully hide from prying eyes.

Askold

Askold Zapashny, whose wife will be discussed next, was born in Kharkov in 1977. In a cage with tigers, he entered for the first time in 10 years. He began his circus career with his brother Edgard as a juggler on horseback and a monkey trainer. In 1998, their father - People's Artist of Russia Walter Zapashny - at the celebration of his 70th anniversary gave them the attraction "Among the Predators." Askold Zapashny entered the Guinness Book of Records with a trick for the longest jump on a lion. Together with his brother, they created the Circus of the Brothers Zapashnyh.

Askold's wife,

Wedding Askold and Helen was secretly out of sight, without much publicity on television and in the press. On the eve of this event, he was appointed chief artistic director of the Bolshoi Moscow Circus on Vernadsky Avenue.

His wife today is Helen Zapashnaya. Her biography says that she was born in the Holy Land of Israel, in the city of Haifa, located on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. She is attached with all her heart and soul to this country, because her parents live here, who always wait for them. In a marriage with Askold, they had two girls named Eva and Elsa.

From the words of Helen herself, her parents and Askold were against their relationship. His mother, like a wise woman, wanted him to marry a circus girl, as she would be more loyal to his constant business trips, all sorts of hardships and related inconveniences. And most importantly - will always and everywhere follow her husband. And Ellen's parents were afraid that their daughter would drop the Minsk Medical Institute.

Introduction

Once the future Helen Zapashnaya while still at the institute went with friends to the circus performance of the Zapashny brothers. Evening they had fun, but then a couple of days later they were called by their common friend with Askold and said that her phone number was asked by Askold. But then she did not know the trainer Askold and did not particularly see his posters. She replied that she did not need it at all, because she already has a boyfriend, and the guest performers will soon leave.

Helen thought that if this artist is famous, then he is spoiled by female attention. A friend povozmuschalsya, but still managed to get her phone. Then at the lecture, she received a message on the phone, where Askold invited her to a date, and they met. The first evening went gorgeously, but then Askold disappeared for four days. It turns out that it was a receiver to fall in love with her. With her boyfriend, she broke up. Then the circus left and toured for 2 months. But lovers used to communicate with the phone at any time of the day or night, as it turned out.

Sentence

Helen to the last did not understand everything that is happening to her, she braked herself so as not to completely lose touch and feelings. But Askold, although it was not easy for him, explained to her that their relationship had already reached a different level. Three months after the acquaintance Zapashny admitted to her in love. They began to dream of a wedding, of children, in general, at full speed, making plans for the future, and even though the whole world would be against them.

From that moment they declared themselves a couple. Askold went to Helen's parents in Israel. Everyone was worried. Then there he proposed to her in the Holy Land, gave her his ring to his future wife, and uttered those most important and important words, and she, of course, answered "yes."

Edgard

However, Edgard did not support his brother in this matter, and Askold was very surprised, because when he led and showed his mother to his girlfriend, and she did not like it, Edgard left the house with a backpack, and Askold left with him. True, at that time they had a very youthful age. Askold waited for his brother's support, but then everything quickly calmed down, and today the whole family embraced a pleasant relationship. Edgard became the godfather of their first daughter Eva, he also grows two daughters.

Helen Zapashnaya gave birth to two girls, but she and her husband still very much want his son to continue the dynasty of Zapashnyh trainers. However, in the matter of circumcision they have some differences. After all, if a son is born, then according to Jewish traditions this process is simply necessary. Helen believes that in terms of hygiene, this is very correct, but Askold does not share the views of his wife and is still on his own.

Eva and Elsa

The names of the girls were chosen by Askold himself; Helen considered that he had every right to do this, since a woman bore a child, and a man, giving a child a name, should feel that he was a papa. The name Eve - Jewish, and Askoldu it was necessary to liking, and also it became pleasant for parents Helen. It was the first girl. But they called the second daughter Elsa simply because this is a very beautiful name.

Askold's mom was against this name and even called young people about it so that they would not call the child the names of successful people. But when there are some difficult and controversial issues, Zapashnye begin to look for a sign, and they got it. When, after the call of the mother, the young parents stopped at a traffic light, suddenly a truck was seen near by on which "Elsa" was written in large letters. And then another important event happened on the birthday of little Elsa, the famous world actress Elizabeth Taylor died.

Zapashny's parents decided that their daughters should wear beautiful catchy and bright memorable names. Askold and Helen already dream that they were circus performers. Eva is very similar to her mother, and the youngest Elsa is an exact copy of the pope, and therefore she is jokingly called Askold Askoldovna.

Elen Zapashnaya: nationality

Helen is Jewish by nationality, and sometimes Zapashnye live in Israel for a long time, however they consider their family modern and do not observe Jewish traditions. Helen Zapashnaya (Reichlin) at first resented her husband, who did not help her in the kitchen. But Askold explained to her very simply his position, saying that he was funny, for example, when a guy carries a small handbag for his girlfriend.

After marriage, Helene changed her views about real men, she resigned herself to the fact that her husband does not know how to fry even eggs and does not bring coffee to bed.

Tour

Helen Zapashnaya tries to follow the children with her husband everywhere. The circus of the Zapashny brothers constantly tours around the world, and Askold sometimes does not happen at home for months. According to the experience of other families Askold knows that in the long separation feelings get cold, and the spouses from each other wean, therefore Askold and Helen travel with children almost always together. Helen herself admits that she is ready to follow her husband always and endure all the inconveniences, especially since they have already adapted well and carry with them all the necessary furniture, household appliances, linens and even curtains.

Helen has already become accustomed to the nomadic way of life, and if the husband leaves alone, then after a time, greatly bored, she hurries to him. And children should see their father and his uncle Edgard more often, who already has sufficient skills of education, having his own daughters.

Askold believes that with the children, the method of the carrot and carrot works best: for a good deed it is necessary to encourage, and for bad - to punish, and borders are better not to be confused. Because of the upbringing of children, the Zapashnyi have disagreements, since, according to Askold, Helen Zapashnaya pampers their children. Children in fact immediately feel concessions and begin to manipulate and whims to achieve what they want.

Jealousy

At young spouses Zapashnyh sometimes there are disagreements because of jealousy. Especially during the first time Helen Zapashnaya was very jealous of her husband to women, but then she tried to figure out where to be jealous, and where not. In turn, Askold also does not accept the presence of a male near his wife.

However, Zapashny in his family is not a tyrant at all, he allowed his wife to study in residency so that she, at last, completed her medical education. It's a little silly to wean seven years, then to abandon everything. Helen is a beautiful and intelligent woman, she wants to be independent. When many years pass, she does not want to regret the missed opportunities, especially since modern marriages have ceased to be strong.

Today parents of spouses no longer condemn their choice, the main thing for them now is that their children love and respect each other. The trainer was supposed to be married to an artist of the circus, and to her - an Israeli doctor. But now everything is fine, and parents are only happy for the young and for their beloved granddaughters.
