Why Did Sergey Shnurov Divorce His Wife?

The Divorce of Sergey Shnurov and His Wife

Sergey Shnurov, the frontman of the Russian rock band Leningrad, has divorced his wife of eight years, Matilda Shnurova. The couple announced their separation on social media, but did not provide any details about the reasons for their split.

However, a source close to the couple has revealed that the divorce was due to Shnurov's infidelity. The source claims that Shnurov had been having an affair with a woman named Olga Abramova for several months, and that Matilda had found out about the affair.

Shnurov's History of Infidelity

Shnurov has a history of infidelity. He was previously married to Maria Ismagilova from 1992 to 2002, and the couple had two children together. However, Shnurov was unfaithful to Ismagilova throughout their marriage, and the couple eventually divorced.

After his divorce from Ismagilova, Shnurov began dating Oksana Akinshina, a Russian actress. The couple had a son together in 2004, but they never married. Shnurov and Akinshina eventually broke up in 2008.

Matilda's Reaction to the Divorce

Matilda has not publicly commented on the divorce, but she has reportedly been devastated by the news. A source close to Matilda says that she is "heartbroken" and "doesn't know how she's going to move on."

The divorce has also been a major blow to Shnurov's public image. He has been criticized for his infidelity, and some fans have even called for him to be fired from Leningrad.

The Future of Leningrad

It is unclear what the future of Leningrad will be now that Shnurov is divorced. The band has been through several lineup changes over the years, but Shnurov has always been the driving force behind the group.

If Shnurov leaves Leningrad, it is possible that the band will break up. However, it is also possible that the band will continue without him. Only time will tell what the future holds for Leningrad.
