The third wife of the famous journalist, artist and interior designer Albina Nazimova, aroused almost no one’s sympathy; everyone disliked her. Listyev’s colleagues and friends gave the woman the nickname “Nochka” - dark, making one wary. Andrei Razbash's mother-in-law for his second wife described her as insincere and insidious. And the mother of Listyev’s second wife stated:
“Albina is a terrible person, it’s better not to mess with her!”
The murder of Listyev became one of the most resonant events of the 90s. The case was under the special control of the President of Russia, and among the suspects were such famous personalities as Boris Berezovsky, Vladimir Gusinsky, Alexander Korzhakov, Sergei Lisovsky. After 24 years, the crime still remains unsolved, and the case contains more than 200 volumes.
The Investigative Committee had many versions, including the “family” version. Listyev’s third wife, Albina Nazimova, was tested for involvement in the journalist’s death.
Although investigators did not develop this version, Vladislav’s daughter from his first marriage, Valeria Listyeva, is of the opinion that it was Nazimova who had a hand in the murder of her father.
Biography
Albina Vladimirovna was born on June 9, 1963 in a poor family. A girl grew up without a father. Her grandmother and mother were involved in her upbringing. Albina studied mediocrely, there weren’t enough stars in the sky, and poverty left its mark on the character of the fragile-looking girl. Mom worked as a technician at school; there was no money even for a decent uniform. After graduating from school, Albina Nazimova decided to connect her life with the profession of a restaurateur. It would seem how a young girl could be attracted to such an unusual and rare profession. As Albina herself says, she liked the fact that she would have to be responsible for the quality of her work herself. She never liked working with a crowd, in a team, and was an individualist. She liked to do everything on her own.
The details of Albina Nazimova’s biography are unknown to a wide range of readers, but it is clear that the girl loved art from childhood, never mixed herself with the crowd, was very well-read, spoke culturedly, did not even want to hear obscene language, let alone use such words in her vocabulary. This prompted me to choose a profession, because art is always pure and bright, and restoring paintings and ancient artifacts is a very noble activity.
After studying, the young girl got a job at the Museum of Oriental Arts. While still a student, Albina Nazimova gets married. She says absolutely nothing about her first husband. They did not live long, they had no children together. The woman does not want to talk about an unsuccessful marriage, explaining the situation simply: “What happened is past. I don’t talk to my exes!” It’s not in her nature to remember bad things; life goes on.
Life goes on
Although some will say that in the biography of Albina Nazimova the most important and interesting period is the time of her marriage to Listyev, it must be admitted that it lasted relatively short and ended sadly. The husband of the ambitious lady died, and the circumstances of this case have not been clarified to this day. The death of Vlad Listyev came as a shock to the state - the journalist was killed in the entrance of his house, but the perpetrators successfully evaded responsibility. For some time Albina grieved as a widow, but over time she agreed to get married again. Her new chosen one was Andrei Razbash. Here Ali’s dream of becoming a mother finally came true: a son was born with Andrei. Albina’s inflexibility and iron will became the reason for naming the child her mother’s surname. As in her marriage to Listyev, while with Razbash, Albina showed herself to be a strong personality for whom no obstacles are scary.
Currently, Albina Nazimova is a designer, artist, and restorer. She chose an interesting job for herself, which, as she herself admits, she perceives more as a hobby. Alya works on unsightly old rooms, designing and planning them in such a way that the finished object becomes a real work of art. At the same time, Nazimova is a psychoanalyst, an expert on the sense of beauty. She is able to explain to any person that money cannot be the final goal, it is only a means for realizing what you dream of.
Years of life with Listyev
At 25, Albina Nazimova radically changes her life. During this period, fate brought her together with journalist Vladislav Listyev. People who knew them at that time say that Vlad drank heavily and only thanks to his wife gave up this addiction and returned to his profession. It cannot be said that the girl was too happy in this marriage, except that she finally stopped thinking about the constant lack of money. After the registration at the registry office, the young wife takes a double surname, not wanting to completely lose her “I”. Now they call her Albina Nazimova-Listeva. At first, the couple lived in a rented apartment or with the wife’s parents at home. They didn't have their own property for a long time. When Vlad drank, he often missed TV shows or came to filming “under the weather,” and this did not contribute to enrichment. After he gave up this thankless task, his career took off.
At that time, according to Albina’s stories, they bought their first apartment, in which the girl created the interior herself. As she admits, this was her first design job. Together with Vlad, they went to shops and markets, looking for suitable furniture and paintings. The girl always loved decorating the interior with them. The design of the room with her own hands contributed to the fact that Albina Nazimova decided to connect her life with this art. Helping to decorate the premises of houses and apartments for all her friends and acquaintances, she gradually created a name for herself in this business.
Interviews and opinions
In numerous articles published in various publications talking about conversations with Albina Nazimova, in the photo you can see a charming woman who clearly knows how to present herself in the best possible way. Since childhood, Alya has strived for beauty and tried to surround herself with such people and things. She notes that one of the happiest moments in her life with her second husband was purchasing a home. They had the opportunity to renovate the apartment according to their taste. At that time, Alya had not yet specialized in interiors, so her own home became a launching pad for her. It was decided to choose white for the home. She kept the furniture used to decorate it, and to this day it remains in Albina’s apartment. Much, as she noted more than once in interviews, in her daily life reminds her of her deceased husband. For example, there are a lot of books left from him. She admits that Vlad read non-stop, avidly, almost all the time he was not at work.
In 1993, Albina Nazimova said that her husband was rarely interested in her opinion about what he was doing. At the same time, the lady was always present on the set, since it was part of her life - the husband could only be calm when his beloved wife was nearby late in the evening. Alya herself believed that “Field of Miracles,” which Vlad was actively working on at that time, did not suit him at all - although he performed his tasks with the professionalism inherent in a journalist, there was some discomfort, as if Listyev was in an unsuitable role for him. On the other hand, Albina notes that it was during the period of hosting this program that Vlad became a real master of communicating with listeners and gained considerable experience in organizing the show.
Terrible period of life
When her husband, Vladislav Listyev, was killed at the entrance to their house, many correspondents, naturally, began to delve into the personal life of Albina Nazimova. The couple had no children together, but this was not Listyev’s first marriage. From his previous wives he had a son and a daughter. After the first shock, the question arose about the inheritance. The children immediately accused Albina of “stole” most of the shares and the rest of her property. Albina always claimed that at the beginning of their relationship they actually lived on her money.
And many family friends believe that it was Albina Nazimova who created the journalist’s name. If it weren’t for her, Vlad would have become a bitter drunkard, as everything was heading towards that. Other spiteful critics call her almost a “black” widow, her husband’s killer, who knew about her husband’s numerous adventures on the love front and decided to get rid of him for the sake of money with the help of hired killers. A huge number of versions were put forward, and the most incredible gossip was collected by yellow press journalists. There is no escape from this, especially when the person is public, in demand, and rich.
Change is around the corner
As some friends who knew Albina Nazimova’s personal life in detail said, the woman was the true savior of her second husband. Many noted that in the circles in which Vlad moved, at first they did not want to accept her; people were very wary of the new woman and called her “Dark Night,” thereby expressing fear. Everyone knew about Listyev and his love of love, as well as about his numerous novels, without which the journalist simply could not live. In the same way, no one denied that he loved his wife to the point of insanity. Friends said that Alya was the most important person in the TV presenter’s life.
However, it is known that once Albina Nazimova’s personal life was under particular threat - she was close to divorcing her beloved husband. The reason for this was the girl Vera, at that moment the personal gynecologist of Listyev’s wife. Among her friends she was known as Veranda. One day Vlad met a girl at a party. Marina Penkina, a graduate of VGIK and Listyev’s colleague, and at the same time the object of a temporary romance, was also present there. The wife knew about both. An unpleasant story developed: Alya found out that her husband had flown away on vacation with his mistress, and came to meet him at the airport. However, regardless of how this scene ended - and there were no witnesses willing to talk about it - the Listyev family was still considered exemplary loving.
Answer to numerous rumors
The woman responds to all the rumors about herself and Listyev in her own way. She believes that you cannot create someone. She calls Vladislav a very talented journalist, an intelligent person. The fact that he endlessly cheated on her is also called fiction and gossip. He worked hard, creating project after project, constantly thinking about work. In his free time he liked to play tennis and spend time with friends. The families communicated with Leonid Yarmolnik, Yuri Nikolaev, Vitaly Yakovlevich Wulf. They rarely traveled together; work did not often take them far and long. Albina remembers wonderful trips to the Mediterranean, a trip to France, where they spent a lot of time, saw wonderful views of this beautiful country, and visited Paris.
And Albina herself is self-sufficient and talented. If such a brilliant and educated person fell in love with her, then, probably, she was of interest to him both as an interlocutor and as a woman. This cannot be denied. Their mutual friends confirm that Albina had the qualities of a psychologist, and therefore she managed to wean her husband off the bottle and enjoy life and work.
Third marriage
Less than three years after the death of Vladislav Listyev, Albina Nazimova has a new husband. The woman did not want to go to the registry office for the third time, so the employee of this organization was invited to the house, where the procedure for registering the marriage took place in the presence of a few friends. The chosen one was Vlad Listyev’s longtime workmate, Andrei Razbash. They worked together, and Andrei supported her in the difficult days after Vladislav’s death. Some claimed that their relationship began during Listyev’s lifetime, but neither Albina nor Andrey confirmed this. However, the media did not give rest to the widow here either. Interviews with Listyev's children and his friends appeared in the press every now and then, telling terrible stories about the woman.
She robbed the entire family, became the owner of a million-dollar fortune, and left nothing for the children. They said that even before Vladislav’s death she was already in close contact with Andrei Razbash. Gossip and idle talk did not subside for a long time. People said that Razbash was also a big lover of women and often walked on the side. And Albina forgave him everything. This is unfortunately true.
Work and life
At that time, as Albina Nazimova recalls, she and her husband very rarely had free days for rest; they practically could not devote their lives to themselves. Weekends for Vlad were a time of participation in a variety of programs. If they managed to find a free day, the couple usually went on vacation to their dacha, visited mutual friends, and traveled to famous Russian cities. It is known that one of their favorite destinations was Rostov the Great.
Listyev’s widow admitted even earlier that she and her husband agreed on political views and beliefs. She characterized her attempts to argue with her husband as a communication between two mathematicians explaining to each other the simplest truth, which they both already know very well. However, there were still certain disagreements. For example, at some point Vlad Listyev decided to take up his political career in earnest and nominated himself to the Moscow Council as a deputy. Albina threatened with divorce - she considered that being the wife of a politician was more than she could bear. However, his beloved husband only went to a meeting of deputies once, and upon returning home, he promised that he would never return there again in his life.
Divorce from Andrey
After being married for several years, the couple officially divorced, although during the divorce they had a child together. The truth is hard to find out. Many spiteful critics claim that Razbash found someone else and himself proposed a divorce. This may well be true, since soon after the divorce he began to live with Oksana Mishonova, who worked with him. Proud Albina did not confirm this. She explained the divorce by the fact that nothing united them anymore, the fire of feelings died out, and she did not see herself in the future with this person. Albina had a son from Andrei Razbash, who was named Vanya. Although in early childhood the boy lived with his father in a country house on the river bank, his mother gave him only her last name. He is Ivan Nazimov. Razbash himself has five children from different wives, which fully confirms his reputation as a lover of women.
Opinion of Razbash and family friends
Andrei Razbash claimed that his relationship with Albina began only six months after Listyev’s death. They used to know each other, but he considered her a bitch and avoided relationships. After he got to know our heroine better, his opinion changed dramatically, and two years later they formalized their marriage. Friends and relatives understood that the reveler Razbash would not stop with one woman and predicted that betrayal in the family would soon begin. They thought that Albina Nazimova would tolerate her husband’s infidelities and forgive him everything for the sake of money. But it turned out that everything was wrong. Independent Albina did not tolerate betrayal and decided to end her unsuccessful marriage by taking the child.
The woman did not need money, since she herself earned good money. And after Listyeva she received a huge inheritance and shares that brought significant dividends. According to Albina, she and Razbash had different bank accounts. She was always wealthier than her husband.
New milestones
In 2004, despite having a son, Albina Nazimova decided to divorce her third husband. Two years later, her ex-husband died of a heart attack. Alya assured more than once that the breakup happened entirely on her initiative. She attributed this to her inability to divide attention between her husband and son. In addition, she lacked joy in everyday life. They say about Albina: if she decides to leave, she leaves forever. This is exactly what happened in the story with Razbash. It is worth noting that her ex-husband wrote her into his will - she received an apartment and several cars, one of which she herself had given him earlier.
Today, Albina Nazimova’s main work is interiors. She says that such a profession and activity is in harmony with the state of mind. In interviews dedicated to her personal life, Alya has repeatedly drawn parallels between human relationships and matter: if a crack appears in the former, nothing will help, just as if the weave in the fabric is unraveling. Nothing worthwhile can be made from such material, just like from something that two people failed to produce. Today Albina is immersed in her work, giving herself entirely to it. Strong in spirit, literally forged from steel, a woman walks through life straight, filled with confidence - despite the abundance of difficulties.
Death of Razbash
Shortly after the official divorce, Andrei Razbash died suddenly. According to relatives and those responsible for the investigation, death was due to a heart attack. This happened at the age of 53. They say that that evening he went to a birthday party, by the way, with his new girlfriend Oksana Mishonova. And according to relatives, it was she who called the ambulance that night.
There are different versions of his death. Some believe that he was very worried about his divorce from Albina Nazimova (a photo of their married couple is in the article). But judging by his close relationship with Oksana Mishonova, this version is unreliable. Others wrote that at his age, living with a young girlfriend (a girl born in 1972), he could easily use Viagra. And this is a huge risk for a sick heart.
There is also a third version. At that time, Andrei Razbash starred in an advertisement for a medicine for blood vessels and could use it, which could also affect his well-being. Even experts could not figure it out. Spiteful critics blamed Albina here too and called her a “black widow” whose husbands were dying one after another. The woman’s justification is the fact that at the time of his death Andrei was already in a close relationship with another, and was officially divorced from Albina.
Personal life
At the time Albina and Vladislav met, both were married. Mutual love changed both Nazimova and Listyev. Albina, who in her youth believed that marriage did not limit freedom, became more homely and caring. Vlad, at the insistence of his wife, stopped drinking alcohol.
For the first years, the lovers lived in Nazimova’s workshop, where the only amenities were a sink with cold water and a toilet at the end of the corridor. After the wedding, which took place on the last day of 1991, the Ostankino hotel sheltered the couple. Then Listyev and Nazimova lived in the apartment of Albina’s mother and only then bought an apartment in the house on Novokuznetskaya Street, in the entrance of which Vladislav was killed on the first spring day of 1995.

Albina Nazimova and Vladislav Listyev
The journalist adored his wife, but there were betrayals in the lives of Nazimova and Listyev. Vladislav had an affair with Albina’s friend and gynecologist Vera Ogryzkova, who had the nickname Veranda and in March 1995 attended the funeral of the creator of ViD. But the husband and wife knew that they would never laugh as much with anyone as with each other, and after quarrels they invariably reunited.
After the death of her husband, Nazimova inherited $16 million. This circumstance, as well as her marriage to Vladislav’s friend and colleague Andrei Razbash 3 years after the death of her second husband, gave gossipers a reason to gossip about Albina’s involvement in the murder of Vlad Listyev.
In an interview in 1999, Nazimova, who was then married to Andrei Leonidovich, said that she considered the children of Listyev and Razbash to be her own. At least, this was not true with regard to Vlad’s offspring, since the creator of “Vzglyad” himself, after marrying Alina, practically did not communicate with his daughter and son.
Albina became a mother at the age of 41. Son Ivan took up so much space in the lady restorer’s heart that she could not give his father as much love and care as before. According to Albina, she initiated the divorce from Razbash.

Albina Nazimova and Andrei Razbash
The journalist was briefly consoled in the arms of his young colleague Ksenia Mishonova, the age difference with whom Andrei was exactly 19 years: in 2006, he died suddenly of a heart attack. Since after the death of Razbash Nazimova again received an inheritance, the woman began to be called a black widow.
Albina found family happiness with restaurateur and racing driver Alexander Rusinov. According to Bozhena Rynska’s assessment, which the socialite made on her Facebook, Nazimova’s last husband is the ideal man both in appearance and in relation to his wife. Together with their new family (Alexander and his son Roman, also a racing driver), Albina and Ivan Nazimov live in a spacious house in Spain. The interior design of the villa was created by the owner.
Nazimova has a page on Instagram, but a woman who has experienced the loss of loved ones publishes mainly not personal photos, but decorating ideas and implemented design projects. Video interviews with Albina confirm that she has retained her charm and slim figure, but her height and weight are not known.
Last marriage
After the death of her third husband, the woman did not give up. She had no intention of spending the rest of her life alone. A creative nature receives inspiration only from true love, and even after numerous sufferings, happiness finally came into her life. How Albina Nazimova met her husband Alexander Rusinov is unknown, but for more than 10 years the family has been living together happily.
Many people believe that for all the suffering in life, a woman has found a truly handsome and wonderful man. After her previous husbands wandered off, Albina enjoys communicating with Alexander, who is madly in love with her. He is witty, attractive and wealthy.
From an early age he raises Albina’s son, treating the child as his own. By the way, Alexander also has his own, but already adult, son Roman from a previous marriage. He is on excellent terms with him. Helps him in his racing career, since he himself loves this sport very much. Also, Albina Nazimova’s husband Rusinov is a successful restaurateur. The couple rented a house for a long time in Spain, on the shores of the azure sea. But the constant crowds of tourists tired of their presence, and the Rusinov family purchased a villa on the hill. Some sources write that the couple took out the house for a long-term lease. Only there, in the silence of the Spanish hills, far from the noise of the city and annoying journalists, Albina Nazimova and Rusinov found their nest, which, of course, the hostess herself undertook to decorate.
Career
Albina is a restorer by training. Before turning to interior design, Nazimova worked at the Oriental Museum. As a restorer, Vlad helped take her work to an exhibition in the Hermitage. Albina came up with the TV logo and advised Listyev to broadcast in suspenders.

Albina Nazimova and her husband Alexander Rusinov
Decorator Nazimova’s “trick” is eclecticism, mixing Persian carpets, Western antiques and modern furniture in one apartment. When developing the design of houses, Albina takes into account the tastes and interests of the owners. Thus, in a project developed for a family of collectors, Nazimova decorated the staircase in the style typical of art galleries, and placed a vintage chest of drawers in the room with a canvas painted in the 60s of the 20th century.
Life in Spain
After several years of living in Russia, Alexander invites his beloved to move to Spain, where they now live - in a villa at the foot of the Pyrenees Mountains. According to Albina herself, they chose a simply heavenly place to live. It's quiet, beautiful, incredibly picturesque.
When arranging her home, Albina liked the house so much that she did not want to thoroughly remodel it, leaving the original Spanish style. As always, I added a lot of paintings and light to the room. Albina continues to decorate other premises, but she only takes money for decorating restaurants and other public institutions, and decorates houses and apartments for friends for free.
An interesting fact is known that family friend Vitaly Wulf, whom Albina helped decorate his apartment, treated her so warmly that he even left an inheritance after his death.
We can discuss our heroine for a long time. Many women still criticize her angrily, surprised, or perhaps, most likely, jealous that she spent her life with prominent and interesting people, has a lot of money and lives for her pleasure in beautiful and warm Spain. Maybe that’s why it was quite difficult to find out the year of birth and the biography of Albina Nazimova. We hope all readers have satisfied their curiosity. On the heroine’s Instagram page you can see many beautiful photographs related to Albina’s professional activities, and just admire the beautiful views of Spain.
Now you know who Albina Nazimova is. The year of birth, biography and details of her personal life were discussed in the article.
