Childhood and youth
Alexey Vyacheslavovich Panin was born on September 10, 1977 in Moscow, USSR (now Russian Federation) . His parents were far from art, but they belonged to the Soviet intelligentsia . Mom, Tatyana Borisovna Vlasova , was a journalist and editor at the Nauka publishing house, and was on friendly terms with the then popular artist Anatoly Romashin . Dad, Vyacheslav Panin , worked as a mechanical engineer at the Moscow Institute of Thermal Engineering, which belonged to the research institutes of the defense industry. The man passed away when his son Alexei turned 20 years old.
Alexey Panin in childhood
Now it’s hard to believe it, but in childhood the future brawler was a real “good boy . He studied well at school, and no one could even imagine any hooligan antics from him. The reason for this was very harsh parental upbringing and constant control. The boy was kept under strict supervision and was not given the opportunity to indulge in any liberties. In addition to secondary school, Alyosha devoted a lot of time to sports. He especially liked water polo, he made progress there and seriously thought about becoming a professional athlete. But suddenly a rebellious spirit began to appear in the boy. He suddenly changed his mind about becoming an athlete and even stopped going to training. Now young Panin just wanted to live for his own pleasure.

Another hobby of the teenager was acting . This passion began quite by accident: Alyosha saw an advertisement on the street about enrollment in the theater studio of Vyacheslav Spesivtsev and decided to try his hand. That same evening the boy learned one piece of prose and one poem, and the next day he went to the audition . To the surprise of Panin himself, he was immediately accepted, and the young man began to study acting. At the same time, he didn’t have any special desire to connect his life with this profession; he just liked playing on stage.

Alexey changed several schools due to frequent moves . Due to family circumstances, he had to alternately live with his mother and father, then with his grandparents (both on the maternal and paternal side). But there were two more cases that led to a change of educational institution . One day a boy received a bad grade in physics, and this made it impossible for him to stay in one of the schools. Another time, he was overzealous in cleaning the classroom: he wiped the portrait of Vladimir Lenin with a wet rag , causing it to deteriorate. Nowadays such a situation only causes a smile, but in those years it was considered almost a crime. Alexey had to look again for another place of study.

Endless “perturbations” influenced the teenager’s worldview. He increasingly thought about becoming a bandit, and an authoritative one at that. Then no one will be able to reproach him for anything, and his whole life will be smooth and prosperous, the guy thought. The era in which all these events took place added fuel to the fire. The “dashing” 90s began, when the bandits became almost absolute masters in the country, and the boys, instead of danger, saw in it only romance and attractiveness . Alyosha Panin was no exception; he spoke quite seriously about the fact that he wanted to join some kind of criminal group. Mom noticed this in time and began to “straighten the brains” of her unlucky son . According to Tatyana Borisovna, the best option for her son was to study at a theater university, or rather at GITIS. There he will be taught intelligence and, at the same time, the guy will not be bored, his rebellious nature will be expressed in the roles he plays.
For his first film role, Panin was expelled from GITIS (“Who, if not us”)
Alexey did not object to his mother, but he did not want to prepare particularly for the entrance exams. He considered himself quite capable of doing it without any strain, and even if it didn’t work out, the guy still had no particular desire to become an actor. Oddly enough, he easily passed the audition the first time and was accepted into the institute.

Carier start
GITIS students were prohibited from acting in films, but Alexey Panin did not pay attention to this . He began acting in his first year, making his debut in the crime film “Who If Not Us” in the role of a policeman . The university management either did not notice the first violation or forgave the young student. But for the second offense, Alexei was expelled: they did not forgive him for filming in the historical drama “The Romanovs. The Crowned Family" directed by Gleb Panfilov . Later the guy was reinstated in GITIS, but very soon he was expelled again. The reason again was participation in the filming of a film, a little-known one at that, and Panin had a cameo role in it. But still, the administration of the institute considered it impossible to continue to keep such a malicious violator of discipline. In the end, Alexey lost his place at GITIS, being left without a higher education diploma. It cannot be said that this was a tragedy for the guy; he always insisted that he did not regret what happened at all. According to him, none of his classmates, who studied conscientiously and even received honors diplomas, achieved much success in the profession. At least, no one became as famous as Panin. And instead of cramming dry theory, he himself acquired invaluable experience and “shone up” in front of the directors, which allowed him to easily follow the path to fame.
Young Panin
One of the first roles after Panin’s exclusion from GITIS was a conscript soldier nicknamed Pysa from the comedy “DMB”. This film was released in 2000 and immediately became a cult classic. Although the role was small, Alexey made him bright and recognizable, thanks to which he instantly became famous. A little later, from 2000 to 2001, sequels to “ DMB ” were filmed, which did not include the audience’s favorite Pysa, performed by Panin. This was followed by the thimblemaker Ippolit in Down House (2001), the prisoner Chibis in one of the series of Truckers, (2001), the strange boy Bely in the comedy Don’t Even Think! (2003). “Star” (2002) was somewhat different However, even in a serious film, the actor managed to bring cheerful and cheerful notes. In fact, Panin made a small masterpiece ; in a few minutes of screen time he was able to be remembered by the audience and impress the critics. Recognition did not take long to arrive. It was for his role in “Star” that Alexey was awarded the State Prize of the Russian Federation in 2003.
Panin in "Taiga Romance"
By birth
This woman was incredible just by the fact of her birth. The granddaughter of the Minister of Justice Viktor Panin, and on the other side of the industrial magnate Sergei Maltsov. The niece of the French poetess of Russian origin Tola Dorian and the last of the once famous Panin family.
Through Tola, she became a relative of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin, as well as Victor Hugo. The owner of Marfin near Moscow and Crimean Gaspra - the latter was given to her by her loving aunt.
Countess Panina was born in 1871. At eighteen, she is already married to a 22-year-old scientist and millionaire, handsome Alexander Polovtsev. The imprisoned father was Emperor Alexander the Third. And a few months later - divorce.
Giving up on the notorious family happiness, Sofya Vladimirovna begins charitable activities. And again everything is of the highest standard.
First, she, together with one of the capital’s teachers, opens a free canteen for workers’ children on Ligovka, behind the Obvodny Canal. And then he buys a plot of land there, in this more than disadvantaged area, and builds a people's house for the urban poor.
Countess Panina is a member of the Standing Commission for the Organization of Public Readings, a fellow chairman of the Society for benefits to students in primary city schools, a fellow chairman of the Russian Society for the Protection of Women, a chairman of the Society of Cheap Accommodations for Women Seeking Work, a sponsor of the All-Russian Zemstvo Union and a shareholder of the Moscow Art Theater. But the main thing for her still remains the People's House on Ligovka.
It has become a kind of extension of the dining room. Seeing that feeding alone did not help, that after a free lunch the poor returned to their hopeless hell, she began to organize book readings, demonstrations of “foggy paintings” and even classes for adults in the dining room.
The Countess wrote: “The little people are curious, inquisitive and enterprising. Children will always be the first to enter any new institution and enter any slightly opened door. But they will also bring their parents with them and entice curious adults.”

Further more. And now the architect Julius Yulievich Benois is building here an architectural ensemble of two spacious buildings connected by an internal garden and courtyard. Theater hall with a thousand seats with a marble staircase and mahogany trim. Sofya Vladimirovna herself played the honorary role of prompter during performances.
Dining room, tea room, reading room, gymnastics room, quieter study rooms. A huge library, also known as a cinema hall, also known as an organ hall. The large round tower houses an observatory equipped with a rotating dome.
Panina recalled: “It was warm, clean, light and spacious here. There were newspapers and various illustrated publications, checkers and chess. There were no playing cards, and there was no vodka.”
Teachers were invited to teach in thirteen subjects. The lawyer provided free consultations to confused proletarians. At one time, the future head of the Provisional Government, Alexander Kerensky, worked as a lawyer, but was quickly fired for political propaganda. It was strictly prohibited here - along with alcohol and cards.
The savings bank helped these proletarians spend their money wisely. New manuals for the “Mobile Museum” were produced in our own workshops. There was a laundry service.
The Countess wrote: “The house was buzzing like a beehive—up to 1,000 people gathered—and there wasn’t a corner where some group wasn’t studying. There were illiterate men and women, semi-literate, and more advanced and developed workers who needed technical and general educational knowledge.”
The heyday of Panin's career
Since 2004-2005, Alexey has been considered an accomplished actor who has won the love of viewers and the respect of colleagues. He is increasingly being called into films and TV series. “Blind Man's Bluff” (2005), “ Four Taxi Drivers and a Dog” (2006), “Tumbler” (2007), “Soldiers” (2006-2007) - these are just a small part of the films where you can admire memorable and characteristic images , created by Panin. The young artist becomes a real star: he is bombarded with offers of cooperation, the media are vying with each other to interview him, people constantly recognize him on the streets and ask for a souvenir photo and an autograph. This is not surprising, because most often Alexey starred in popular projects with a large audience. For example, the series “Soldiers” was watched by almost the entire country in 2006-2007.

Panin also participated in historical films ("Spy"), action films ("Mirage"), dramas ("The Flock"), but he can best show himself in comedic, playful roles. “The Man from the Boulevard of Capuchins”, “On Treason”, “Rzhevsky against Napoleon” - these are the most famous films with the participation of Alexei in the 2010s . He played a lot with modern Russian cinema stars, such as Mikhail Galustyan, Svetlana Khodchenkova, Elizaveta Boyarskaya.
Personal life of Alexey Panin
Alexey Panin belongs to those artists whose personal life is much more eventful than their professional one. Moreover, the events that actually happened to this man surpass the plots of the most bizarre films. Alexey had an extremely large number of women, with some he had a one-time relationship, with others he dated for some time. Panin’s relationships with Yulia Yudintseva, Tatyana Savina, Olga Maruzhenko and Lyudmila Grigorieva can be considered the most serious.
Alexey Panin and Tatyana Savina
The artist was in actual marriage with actress . Children were born from both women - daughters Anna (born 2008) and Maria (born 2011) . Alexey separated from Savina peacefully, and the former de facto spouses are still on friendly terms; there are no scandals regarding their common daughter Masha. But the break with Yudintseva was extremely painful and scandalous, and became public knowledge. The situation was especially acute with daughter Anya, whom mom and dad could not “share” in any way . Alexey and Yulia took turns hiding the girl from each other, the police and lawyers intervened in the matter, and they tried to reconcile the former lovers on various talk shows. After all the twists and turns, in 2017, the court of the Vladimir region put an end to the difficult matter: it officially allowed Panin to keep his daughter Anna with him.
Panin with his daughter
In 2011, Panin gave birth to another daughter, Sofia. Her mother was Alexei’s next common-law wife , Olga Maruzhenko . The man had a relationship with her almost at the same time as his affair with Tatyana Savina. Baby Masha and Sonya were born just two days apart. It is known that Sofia bears the surname of her mother’s husband, Mogucheva, and her patronymic from her own father is Alekseevna.
After breaking up with Tatyana and Olga, Alexey began an affair with actress Maria Berseneva, star of the TV series “Margosha”. That relationship was beautiful and romantic: Panin openly demonstrated his feelings for the woman he loved, giving her flowers right in public. The couple’s appearances at social events with their children were especially touching. Maria took her son with her, Alexey took her daughter. Those around them did not even believe in the reality of what was happening, but both artists claimed that they were connected by a feeling. Maria admitted that she used to be afraid of Alexei because of his scandalous fame, but during personal communication she realized what an interesting, ironic person and interlocutor he is. Be that as it may, soon the relationship with Berseneva faded away, and Panin had a new love - Lyudmila Grigorieva.
Panin with his daughter
On March 9, 2013, Panin and Grigorieva officially registered their marriage. This became a real sensation, because no one expected such an act from Alexey. It seemed that the brawler had finally decided to settle down. But family life lasted a little more than a year - until July 15, 2014. Lyudmila herself left her husband, and he reacted with his usual emotionality - he swallowed phenobarbital. Doctors saved Alexey, but he continued to suffer for his ex-wife and, as a sign of his love, got a tattoo on his forearm: “Lucy and Alexey are together forever!”

Even such ardent passion subsides over time. Alexey gradually stopped grieving for Lyudmila and switched to her closest friend Tatyana. In April 2020, information appeared in the media that Panin married his new passion. On social networks one could see photographs of Alexey and Tatyana wearing wedding rings, as well as a picture where a man allegedly chooses a wedding dress for his beloved. But a little later, the actor admitted that all this was played out to attract the interest of the public.
“Three daughters of Alexei Panin”: only one with her father, but what about the others?
Many people have no idea that the notorious actor Alexei Panin is a father of many children. He has three daughters, who were born to him by different women and not to one of them; Panin was never married.
The eldest daughter was born in a common-law marriage with model Yulia Yudintseva, the middle daughter was born by common-law wife Tatyana Savina, and the third daughter was born by a friend named Olga Maruzhenko.
Anna
Panin met the aspiring model and actress Yulia Yudintseva in 2006 at the Smolensk Film Festival. The shocking actor sought the girl’s affection for a long time and only thanks to her, he stopped drinking for a while.
Julia set a condition for Alexey that she would meet with him if he stopped drinking alcohol.
As a result, in 2008, Yudintseva and Panin had a daughter, Anna, after whose birth, Alexey took up his old ways and remembered his addictions.
Conflicts began to arise in the family and Julia decided to break up with Panin. Then Julia began to experience prolonged depression and was forced to see a psychiatrist.
Julia and Alexei did not manage to separate peacefully. Each of them wanted their daughter Anya to live with him.
For some time, the girl grew up with her father and his mother, and Yulia was denied meetings with her daughter.
Later, Yudintseva managed to take her daughter with her, and even then not for long. In 2020, the court recognized Alexey as Anna’s official guardian and now the girl lives with him permanently.
Now the girl is 11 years old, she rarely sees her mother and, according to others, Anna Panina does not look very happy. The girl herself states that everything is fine with her and she is glad that she lives with her dad.
The girl studies in a regular school, travels a lot around the country, and last year she tried herself as an actress and starred in her father’s film called “I’m Back.”
Maria
Alexey Panin met Masha’s mother, gynecologist Tatyana Savina, in 2010.
Tatyana gave birth to her daughter Panina on April 19, 2011.
The lovers did not live together for long and the initiator of the separation was Savina, who was tired of her common-law husband’s drunken sprees.
Now Masha is studying at school, and in her free time she plays music and sports. The girl is not going to follow in her parent's footsteps and dreams of becoming an athlete. Panin sees his daughter, but quite rarely.
Sophia
Sophia was born two days after Masha’s birth - on April 21, 2011, and her birth was not immediately known.
While cohabiting with Tatyana Savina, Panin cheated on her and dated Olga Maruzhenko. Father Panin, who had many children, saw little Sonya only once in his life. The girl's last name is Mogucheva.
Scandals
Alexey Panin is known for his drunken antics and brawls, which no one has been keeping count of for a long time. For example, in 2011, the actor attacked a cafe employee who refused to sell him a bottle of mineral water out of turn. Just at that moment one of the visitors dared to ask Panin for an autograph. In response, the artist hit her on the head with the same bottle of mineral water and cut her scalp until it bled.
In 2013, while vacationing in Crimea, Panin beat up a Tatar who crashed into his car. In addition to bodily injuries, Alexey inflicted moral insults on the victim on ethnic grounds. The artist responded to the violent reaction of the Crimean Tatar population of the peninsula: “For every Tatar, a tree.”

Panin’s sex scandals cause a special resonance He has repeatedly stated that he participates in group sex, and once the number of participants in the orgy reached 80 people. Videos have repeatedly appeared on the Internet in which Alexei walks naked, masturbates on camera, has oral sex with men and even with a dog. Sometimes Panin denied his presence in some videos and claimed that they were filmed specifically to discredit him. More often, the actor stated that strangers should be indifferent to his personal and intimate life. Alexey recommended that his opponents stop spending so much time posting and commenting on sex videos with his participation.

The public outcry over Panin does not stop. Some citizens circulated a petition in June 2020 demanding that the artist be deprived of parental rights. People are sure that a man can corrupt his daughters with his behavior. Activists also want to subject Alexey to a psychiatric examination, as they are convinced of his madness. Moreover, the presence of immoral videos on the Internet may serve as grounds for initiating a criminal case under the article “malicious hooliganism.”
Daughter of Alexei Panin: “Mom does everything so that I don’t reach out to her”

Alexey Panin has been complaining for several years that his daughter Anna cannot travel with him. It’s all because of the ban on traveling abroad, which her mother issued in early 2014. Many times he tried to offer his ex-wife to solve the problem peacefully, but in response he always heard a categorical refusal. The girl herself intervened in the situation: she called her mother and asked to be allowed to go to Germany with her father. To this, Julia invited her to come visit, although she knows that she does not like St. Petersburg.
Last fall, the actor again attempted to take his daughter to Spain through Belarus. Having taken the necessary documents with him, he hoped that the airport staff would let them through the border, but this did not happen.
“It’s not that she offended me, she just does everything so that I don’t reach out to her. I don’t even want to just meet and talk,” admits Anya Panina.

According to the girl, any conversation with her mother develops into a “sad” conversation, which drives both of them crazy. And after she also forbade her to travel, Nyusya (as her family affectionately calls her) refused contacts - they had not seen each other since September 10 last year. Moreover, the schoolgirl put her mother’s number on the blacklist so that she could not get through.
The star father never interfered with communication between Yudintseva and Anya. Even after the court decided that his daughter would live with him, he immediately approached his ex-wife and said: “Here’s your phone number, here’s Nyusya, meet whenever you want.” Panin always kept aloof from their relationship, until the moment when Yulia rudely refused the girl’s request to let her go abroad.

He intends to continue to seek justice from the court and wants to solve this problem, but so far all attempts have failed. When asked how to be different in such a situation, the actor answered: “Negotiate.” Although, in his opinion, this is extremely difficult to do if the other person is only inclined to conflict.
Let us note that Alexei Panin’s disputes with his wife have been going on for several years. The star of the film “Blind Man’s Bluff” was not allowed to see his daughter for a long time - the mother did her best to prevent their communication. To take the girl, the actor resorted to a trick and stole her, after which he was put on the wanted list. The story ended in court, where the father had to prove: Anna should live with him. He also accused Yudintseva of alcohol addiction and spoke about his ex-wife’s mental disorders. After several months of proceedings, the girl moved in with her dad.
Panin now
Now Alexey is trying himself as a director: he is making the film almanac “I’m Back,” dedicated to himself . The film stars Nikita Dzhigurda, Vladimir Epifantsev and Garik Krichevsky.
Alexey Panin and Yulia Yudintseva cannot share a child
In 2020, Panin’s author’s channel, “Hyponews, on YouTube . There, the artist commented on the most important events in the country along with odious personalities invited to the studio, like Nikita Dzhigurda. But ratings turned out to be lower than expected, so Hyponews ceased to exist. One of Alexey’s last statements in this show was his intention to run for the post of President of the Russian Federation in 2020.
Panin now
Back in 2013, Alexey made an official statement about his bisexuality, the veracity of this was confirmed by a lie detector test in the television program “The Invisible Man” . Currently, the artist continues to hold the opinion that one cannot condemn a person for his sexual preferences, and the concepts of “traditional” and “non-traditional” orientation should completely disappear from the lives of cultural people. A civilized society must be tolerant, says Panin.
