To such an extent, the talented schoolboy Konstantin Myakinkov, for the first time in his life, discovered such concepts as independence, responsibility and the hardest work of a dancer.
After graduating from school, he continued his dance evolution, in 2004 becoming a student at the department of modern choreography at the Moscow State University of Culture and Arts.

Barnabas
Kotya Varnava, just like Konstantin, was seriously involved in choreography since childhood, dreaming of becoming a famous dancer in the future. However, a back injury put an end to her dancing career.
Then there was KVN, where the producers of the TNT channel noticed the characteristically spectacular brunette, and several years later invited her to the new humorous project Comedy Woman, where her skills in choreography also came in handy. This show is the starting point for her career. Very soon she began to be invited to appear as a presenter in various television projects, and then to film in such series as “Deffchonki”, “Happy Together”, “Univer” and “Alexandra-Tanya”.
At the time of her meeting with Konstantin Myakinkov, Ekaterina Varnava was now an established TV presenter, actress and Comedy Woman star.
About breaking up with her boyfriend, money and plastic surgery: a new interview with Ekaterina Varnava
Ekaterina Varnava The new guest of the show “Caution, Sobchak” was Ekaterina Varnava (35).
In an interview with Ksenia Sobchak, the actress spoke about breaking up with Konstantin Myakinkov, new relationships and breast reduction (size six). About stuttering
“I always speak very quickly so as not to stutter. In general, I stutter... When I'm worried, my thoughts go forward. This has been since adolescence. I tried to get rid of it. I actually tried to do something with my speech, because it started to stress me out. If I want to work in the theater, then the first thing I need to improve is my speech.”
About size six breasts
“I had size six breasts. Size six! Do you understand what this is? The man is 16 years old, taking into account the fact that there was no money in the family, and I bought these bras at Teply Stan. This is how you try on pants and a bra on a cardboard box.”
About plastic surgery
“At some point I realized that I categorically did not like myself. I had my breasts reduced, twice. I have been accused of a huge number of plastic surgeries. There is no plastic surgery on the face. I have never touched my nose and will not touch it, because it is very fraught. 60% of my face is my nose and it will be very noticeable. And, in principle, I like him. I once pumped up my lips, and then once upon a time I pumped them out for myself... I had my breasts reduced twice, once it was an unsuccessful operation, once it was normal. In America I had an unsuccessful operation, but in Russia I had a successful one.”
About the diet
“I haven’t eaten meat since I was 16, I haven’t eaten seafood for over six years, I don’t eat bread. And now I have recovered, because I fell ill with bronchial asthma. I was on hormonal medications for some time, because that was the only thing that helped me... I gained 10 kg, and also quit smoking.”
About the dumbest job
“Sell books on trains and all kinds of insect repellents. “A remedy for cockroaches, moths and other rodents,” that’s how I walked around the carriages. This is complete cruelty. And it all happened to me.”
About financial losses due to the pandemic
“I lost about 15 million in the last month. I lost my advertising contract because the advertisement was not filmed - that’s eight million, plus the number of concerts and corporate events that were cancelled.”
About parting with Konstantin Myakinkov
“Konstantin Sergeevich and I separated. At the same time, we are in an amazing relationship, no matter how banal it may sound. We remained on really very good terms. We communicate and are friends, so to speak. The period has come when he and I separately need to move on. This is not a moment of betrayal, not a moment that I met some other person, or he met some other person. Although it seems to me that it would have been much easier to part ways, because it was difficult for us to part. At some point I just realized that nothing was moving. A wedding, as such, is no longer needed in this relationship, and it will not change anything; children probably should have been had earlier, because nothing will change either. It’s just that at some point, loving and passionate relationships gradually retrained into such sisterly relationships.”
Let us remind you that the relationship between Ekaterina Varnava and dancer Konstantin Myakinkov (33) became known in 2020. According to rumors, a year later he proposed to the actress.
About new relationships
“Here’s your second sensation. Perhaps someone is looking after me now. We don’t work together, but he comes from a creative profession.”
Start of a relationship
Again, having met Ekaterina in the “Dance!” project, Konstantin developed an unprecedented sympathy for her.
One day after filming, he invited Barnabas to rush her home. In the car they started talking, and the girl was surprised to discover that a young handsome dancer off stage could be a simple guy with whom it was very interesting to communicate.
The next day Konstantin sent her a message:
If you’re free early in the evening, I’ll pick you up and we can have coffee...
This is how their relationship began. And already in October 2020, during their joint tour in Germany together with the Comedy Woman auto show, Konstantin Myakinkov asked for the hand of Ekaterina Varnava, and she agreed.
Already on November 29, 2020, the couple could be seen in the project “Where is the logic?” TNT channel. Despite the fact that they were under the gun of television cameras, the communication between Konstantin and Catherine was distinguished by tenderness and mutual warmth.
Below is a photo of Myakinkov and Varnava in the program “Where is the logic?”
In the same year, the couple went to Penza, where Konstantin introduced Catherine to his relatives. Exactly later, the dancer’s sister Ksenia recalled, looking endlessly arrogant and arrogant on the screen, Varnava in life turned out to be a very simple and sweet girl.
What did Barnabas share?
While filming a video for the YouTube program “Beware, Sobchak!”, Ekaterina said that she broke up with her boyfriend, so now she rents an apartment alone. After the breakup, Konstantin packed his things and moved, however, despite this, they remained friends and continue to communicate well.
This sounds very banal, but, according to the actress, it’s true. But if everything is so good, then why did the seemingly ideal couple, who were going to legalize their relationship, split up?
Maslenitsa couples
From then on, Varnava and Myakinkov began to live in general. Catherine immediately warned Konstantin:
I don’t cook at home, the machine washes my underwear, irons the steamer, and once a week a specially hired person comes to dress up. Are you satisfied with everything?
Being a man of a rather opposite disposition than his chosen one, Konstantin Myakinkov diplomatically agreed, while at the same time maintaining his own opinion about what their family life should be like.
They themselves call each other brutal romantics. Dinners by candlelight or a floor strewn with rose petals are alien to them. They prefer to fool around, dance and go on vacation. However, from time to time, without any reason, a bouquet of flowers or morning coffee in bed suddenly appears on Catherine’s night table.
The tastes of Myakinkov and Varnava do not intersect, and therefore it is even more interesting for them to be a well-wisher with a friend. They are united by a love of dancing and traveling, and, as the girl admits, Konstantin is very similar to her dad. The lover, like her father, again allowed her to read himself as weak and under the protection of a man.
Reasons for separation
Ekaterina lived with her 33-year-old lover Kostya Myakinkov for 6 years. They were engaged. The beautiful couple attracted the attention of fans. Their bright love and creative couple were heatedly discussed in the press and on social networks.
In a conversation with Ksenia Sobchak, the star admitted that they planned to get married, but passionate and ardent love gradually turned into a close family relationship. Feelings cooled, there was no talk of marriage.
Their relationship became friendly
According to Barnabas, they maintained normal relations with their former common-law husband. The former passion and admiration for each other is no longer there. They're just friends.

It is difficult for the artist to name the reason for the breakup. According to Katya, at some point it became clear to both of them: it was time to move in different directions and live independently of each other. The separation was not easy. Catherine believes that it would be easier if the reason was betrayal or a major quarrel, but nothing of the kind happened.
Katya's acquaintances did not know that she had broken up with Kostya
From the interview it was clear that Varnava and Myakinkov broke up because love had passed. The celebrity admitted that she initiated the breakup.
It was not easy for Katya to accept her own loneliness. 6 years have passed since the beginning of the relationship, and at 35 she realized that a lot of time had already been lost, and there was still no family. These problems became especially acute during quarantine.
Marriage
Myakinkov himself admits that his marriage proposal to Catherine was decidedly simple and banal. Without any curtsies, he handed his bride an engagement energy ring and kissed her.
This happened in 2020. Subsequently, the dux of marriage of the TV presenter was discussed in the media for almost a whole year. However, no specifics were ever made; everything was limited to rumors and speculation.
In reality, Konstantin Myakinkov became Konstantin’s husband in an atmosphere of exceptional secrecy. He and Ekaterina Varnava got married in Germany, on the shore of a beautiful lake, in the presence of only their closest friends and relatives.
Since then, on Konstantin’s personal page on one of the social networks, the “Marital status” section reads: “Married to Ekaterina Varnava.”
