Ekaterina and Igor arrived at the registry office late, without even taking the rings. After the momentary painting, they hastily left the wedding palace to get to the festive table.
Klimova’s ex-husband tried to prevent the lovers from legalizing their relationship - He wanted to fix everything, at first charging ex-wife luxurious bouquets, and then switched to almost criminal threats.

Alarm Signals
In 2012, Ekaterina and Igor charmed the audience with their appearance at Kinotavr. They willingly took pictures hand in hand, causing emotion to everyone around. However, at other events of the film festival, Klimova spent time without her husband.
In the winter of 2013, photographs of the actress in the arms of the ex-lead singer of the Chelsea group Roman Arkhipov appeared in the tabloids. Journalists unanimously claimed that on the set of the comedy “Love in the City - 3” a spark ran between the musician and Klimova. Be that as it may, it soon became clear that Ekaterina and Igor had not lived together for several months.
Loneliness together
In July 2014, the marriage had no time perfect couple was officially terminated. Why did Klimova and Petrenko divorce? Both ex-spouses have their own version on this matter. In one of the interviews, the journalist asked Igor Petrenko the reason for the breakup. Why did the actor divorce Klimova? Petrenko replied that she played a cruel joke on his personal life successful career. The high demand for the actor led to regular and long-term departures. He rarely saw his children and wife, so his former passion gradually faded away.
Ekaterina Klimova also commented on why she divorced Petrenko. She was not happy with her husband's constant absence from home. Klimova understood that when Igor appeared at home, he preferred solitude on the couch to conversations with his wife. The situation was aggravated by the fact that during the filming of the series “Sherlock Holmes” the actor became addicted to alcohol. He avoided frank conversations, and Klimova’s attempts to start a discussion of pressing problems ended in a quarrel.
In addition, the actress suspected her husband of cheating. Fans pursued Petrenko tirelessly, and the actor, apparently, only enjoyed admiration for his person and flirting directed in his direction. One day, Igor went to St. Petersburg for work, but stopped communicating an hour before the return train departed. Excited, Klimova dialed phone numbers of St. Petersburg hospitals with trembling hands, and eventually found her husband at a restaurant table. Then the actress realized that she and her husband had become strangers to each other forever.
Present tense
On this moment Both Ekaterina and Igor are doing great in their personal lives. Klimova married again in 2015 - to young actor Gellu Meskhi. The difference between Gella and Catherine is eight years, but this does not bother the lovers at all. Soon after the wedding, Klimova gave her new husband a daughter, Bella. She notes that she has no disagreements with her ex-husband. They still communicate about raising their sons.
Petrenko himself also met new love. Igor’s companion was a 24-year-old actress who gave birth to her beloved long-awaited daughter Sofia-Karolina.
Last summer, Ekaterina Klimova officially separated from Igor Petrenko, with whom she had been married for ten years. This decision was not easy for the star. Firstly, eldest daughter An actress from her first marriage, Elizaveta became very attached to Igor over the years. Secondly, the couple had two children together - sons Matvey and Korney. The separation occurred on Klimova’s initiative, but the impetus for this decision was the behavior of her husband, who made her life unbearable. The actress had a presentiment that if she did not step over herself, trouble might happen.
“There was emptiness and uncertainty ahead. The future seemed vague, even savings to rent a house for my large family it was close. But if I had not left then, on an ordinary November day, what would have happened next would have been just some kind of complete tragedy. Trouble could definitely happen to me! I would get sick. Or maybe she would have died... You can’t exist on the edge all the time. It’s exhausting and takes away strength,” admits Ekaterina.

Fortunately, Klimova now remembers that period as nightmare. The actress has a completely different life. Next to her is a loving and beloved person, actor Gela Meskhi. On October 2, the couple’s daughter, Bella, was born in one of the capital’s perinatal centers. Ekaterina, all her children and Gela live in his apartment in the center of Moscow. At the beginning of December, the couple celebrated six months since their wedding. The artist is embarrassed by the fact that she often hears reproaches addressed to her regarding such a quick marriage.
“My new marriage, despite the fact that it seems to have dotted all the i’s and received answers to important questions for the public, this very public perceived it ambiguously: they say, somehow she quickly... - says Ekaterina in an interview with the magazine "Caravan of Stories". - Indeed, I didn’t really grieve! Only life is much more voluminous than gossip. And who would it be easier if I sat myself in a puddle, sprinkled ashes on my head and cried for days on end? To me? To my children? That’s unlikely!”
It’s interesting that while Klimova was in a position, gossips they said that her chosen one did not particularly carefully look after his newly-made wife. Some of the couple’s colleagues even publicly stated that they saw Meskhi in women’s society. However, it later turned out that the actor was simply involved in several projects at the same time, which is why he returned home very late. Now the young mother has already begun to go out into the world and plans to return to work soon. And Gela Meskhi and ex-husband Igor Petrenko.
Actor Igor Petrenko for the first time commented on the information about the divorce from his wife Ekaterina Klimova.
In an interview with Heat.ru, he explained that he was very angry when he saw a video of his wife kissing another man on the Internet:
“I was preparing for her arrival from Las Vegas; before that we had not communicated for a long time. I put our apartment in order, bought new furniture, in short, prepared a surprise for her. And then by chance I saw this video on the Internet. To be honest, I wanted to destroy everything around me. Well, that's exactly what I did. It hasn't even fully healed yet. (Rolls up his sleeves and shows the scars on his arms.).”
At the same time, the actor notes that he himself largely contributed to the cooling of relations in his family:
“After filming the film Sherlock Holmes, which lasted almost three-plus years in St. Petersburg, I thought I had gone crazy. I started drinking heavily. Subsequently, when filming ended, I could no longer stop. The last six months have passed as if in a dream. Not only did I appear at home from time to time during these three years - for two or three days and go back, almost did not communicate with the children, but I also behaved simply disgustingly towards Katyukha. I can’t say that I didn’t love or care about her, I was just all about myself. I needed time to recover from this role. I didn’t show up at home for months - Klimova put up with it, I disappeared and turned off the phones for several days - Klimova put up with it, I drank - Klimova put up with it, put up with it, put up with it, put up with it, put up with it... Well, how long can you put up with?!”
