Currently, Nagiyev lives in the capital, having bought a house in the Moscow region. He rarely appears in his native St. Petersburg, since he works a lot in Moscow.

The family lived very modestly; the parents were not associated with creativity, although the showman’s father at one time really wanted to become an actor. Together with his brother, Dmitry lived in one room in a small apartment. However, despite this, the young man became a master of sports in sambo, and later - the champion of the Soviet Union.
Dmitry's father
Vladimir Vladimirovich Nagiyev (70 years old) is the father of a popular artist. He worked at an optical-mechanical plant in Leningrad, although from a young age he dreamed of going into cinema.

However, family life went wrong when the eldest son Dima turned 12 years old. The boy had a hard time with his parents’ breakup, stopped communicating with his father, and only recently resumed his relationship with him.
Nagiyev's mother
The showman's mother, Lyudmila Zakharovna, was born in 1937. She is Russian by nationality. By education he is a philologist. She worked as a foreign language teacher at the Military Academy and received the academic title of associate professor. After the divorce, Lyudmila raised her sons alone, but Dmitry and Evgeny supported the woman in everything and helped her. The actor’s first wife (Alice Sher) told reporters that Dmitry tried to visit his mother in St. Petersburg in his free time.

In the fall of 2020, the artist was informed of the death of his mother while filming the program “The Voice.” The film crew was shocked by how Nagiyev managed to fully work through the episode without a drop of emotion. The artist later admitted that it was the most difficult filming of his life.

The popular presenter has a younger brother who was born in the summer of 1971. They decided to name the boy Evgeniy. Throughout his life, he managed to work as a security guard, actor, bodybuilding instructor, and now Evgeny Nagiyev is a successful businessman.

Dima Nagiyev's childhood
The future showman lived throughout his childhood and youth in Leningrad. At that time, he did not even dream of popularity and incredible success in show business. From an early age, Dmitry was involved in sambo and judo, but due to constant illnesses, the boy was expelled from the section (at that time he was a third grader).

It was then that he realized that he had to achieve a lot in life, despite any obstacles. Having matured, he took 2nd place at the city championship, and later received the title of master of sports. After graduating from high school, Dima entered the Electrical Engineering Institute, and then joined the army.

Dmitry Nagiyev has always attracted enormous public interest. This is a mysterious actor who for many years has not revealed a single secret of his family. Information was leaked to the media that he had a son, Kirill, when he became quite an adult.
However, journalists still managed to lift the veil of secrecy and find out a little more details about the personal life of a successful actor and showman. OBOZREVATEL talks about Dmitry Nagiyev’s younger brother, Evgeniy.
Kirill about his uncle
Not long ago, the son of Dmitry Nagiyev, Kirill, posted messages on his account on one of the social networks that he was going to visit one of the best car washes in St. Petersburg... which belongs to his uncle, Evgeniy. A little later, the young man published a photograph together, where the relationship between the men is noticeable to the naked eye.
The photo became a real sensation and one of the most discussed topics on the Internet. After all, now at least the smallest information has appeared about the family of the brutal Dmitry Nagiyev. Kirill loves his uncle very much and often mentions that he is a successful and successful businessman, a crazy racer and just an “awesome man.”
Looking at the photo together, we can conclude that the actor’s son is not exaggerating at all; the brothers have the same charisma and brutality.
Beloved little brother
Thus, Dmitry Nagiyev’s younger brother lives in St. Petersburg. Since his business is doing well, he is quite self-sufficient and does not need the help of his older brother. The brothers have many similarities: style of clothing, sense of humor and comprehensive development, which allows them to maintain a conversation on any topic.
Another common feature that the brothers have is the presence of a large number of tattoos. Looking through the pictures, we can conclude that Evgeny loves them no less, and maybe even more than Dmitry.
Recently, Evgeniy’s business interests have also included the hotel business, while his older brother is doing everything possible to create high-quality advertising and attract his colleagues from the star department to quickly promote a new project. In the hotel you can already see several portraits of celebrities from Russian show business. Conducting a joint business indicates that there is strong friendship, mutual understanding and support between the brothers.
Family contract
On social networks it is rare, but still there are joint photographs of the men of the Nagiyev family: father, brothers and son Dmitry. Fans often comment and like such pictures, and also note that all the men have a striking resemblance to each other.
With the advent and development of social networks, it is becoming increasingly difficult for Dmitry Vladimirovich to keep his personal and family life secret. Moreover, Evgeniy also actively posts content on his page and shares news. He often posts beautiful photographs of the cities he has visited and talks about his own hobbies. Photos with the famous older brother periodically appear here.
Men are proud that they are brothers and are always ready to help each other. And although many Internet users attribute Evgeniy’s growing popularity to Dmitry, in reality the successful businessman achieved his victories on his own. The star family always maintains warmth and strong relationships. The male team likes to joke, but is also ready to discuss serious topics, such as running a business, with a “cool head.”
