He recently visited Boris Korchevnikov and spoke about the amazing twists and turns of his own fate. It turned out that the actor's happy and large family had to endure many trials.

Ivan met his future wife Oksana Arbuzova by chance at the Cinema House. By that time, the actress had already gained popularity, having played the main role in the film "Accident - the daughter of a cop." Okhlobystin then walked past a bright girl, casually throwing: "You will be mine."

The second time the young people saw each other only five years later. The fateful meeting took place in the acting club "Mayak". Ivan recalls that all the girls came there with gentlemen, and only Oksana was accompanied by two guys at once. But the impudent Okhlobystin was not at all embarrassed. He invited his chosen one to take a walk around Moscow at night. Since then, they have not parted for twenty-two years.

Today Ivan and Oksana are raising four sons and two daughters. But not everything in the large family went smoothly. Okhlobystin frankly admitted that the birth of a third child, the daughter of Varvara, could end in tragedy. “Then we were like tired dogs, Varya was about three months old. I was looking for a job all the time, Oksanka is also exhausted. Varya had asphyxia - Oksana was in the hospital with her for another month. We almost lost her, ”the artist shared with the audience.

Soon Okhlobystin made friends with the priest. Long conversations about the meaning of life and divine destiny led the artist to decide to devote himself to the priesthood. He accepted the priesthood and left for Tashkent, where the novice priest was offered a parish. Oksana supported her husband and did not hesitate to go with him. “She had only one question: where to get a big suitcase,” Ivan smiled.

It was not just given to Oksana and the birth of the fourth son Vasily. In the hospital she was infected with hepatitis. The disease was serious enough, and only Moscow doctors saved the life of a young woman. The family returned to Moscow, because there was a catastrophic lack of money for life.

Here, the mother of many children suffered a new loss. The sixth child stopped showing signs of life even in the womb, in the second month. “It was terrible for us, especially for Oksana - she was very worried,” said Okhlobystin. Now the actor gives himself to the family. He readily undertakes any work, if only to bring prosperity and prosperity to the house.

Actor Ivan Okhlobystin said that he almost died due to a severe illness. He wrote about this on his Twitter page. According to his representative, the artist had a serious respiratory illness. The popular actor and clergyman even prepared for death.

Ivan Okhlobystin reported health problems on his official page on the social network Twitter.

"Well... I'm back. I was very sick, I thought I was going to die, but no.. I'm back. And...?!" - announced a popular actor and clergyman.

Numerous subscribers immediately reacted to the message of the star of the series "Interns". The fans wished Okhlobystin a speedy recovery, and to one of them he replied that he would limp.

"Thanks. But I will limp. I had my tendon pulled out again. I can't get used to the fact that I'm an old fart. Young people are burning, ”wrote Okhlobystin in response to a wish for recovery.

And the journalists contacted the official representative of the actor to find out the details. Press Secretary Maxim Brusnitsyn said that Ivan is fine, and the publication in the account is just a manifestation of emotions.

“As far as I know, he is alive and well, as he was and is. It seems to me that these are all such emotional statements, everything is fine, ”said Brusnitsyn, adding that the actor had a cold.

Ivan Ivanovich Okhlobystin is a Russian actor, screenwriter and director. In the past - a biker and a hooligan, now - a father of many children and a staunch conservative. He has a priesthood, is the author of a science fiction novel and several books on religious topics.

Okhlobystin devoted several years to serving in the church, rejecting incoming invitations to audition, but he did not abandon his writing skills. In 2005, Okhlobystin's fantasy novel in the "biotronic" style appeared on the shelves of bookstores. The work, which tells about the adventures of a young man in virtual reality, was called "XIV principle".

At that time, director Maxim Pezhemsky decided to make a sitcom about the everyday life of novice doctors. He had already collaborated with Okhlobystin (the comedy "Mother Do not Cry" in 1997) and, without hesitation, sent the actor the script proposed by Vyacheslav Dusmukhametov. At first, Ivan doubted - after all, participation in comedy series was new to him, however, after reading the script for the first four episodes, he was convinced that Interns promised to become something radically new and could take the concept of "Russian TV series" to a new level.

Okhlobystin fit perfectly into the image and even supplemented it, recalling cases from his father's medical practice. This is how the caustic, sarcastic doctor Andrey Bykov was born, who enjoyed three things in his life: medical practice, bullying interns and bantering with his best friend venereologist Kupitman (Vadim Demchog).

April 1, 2010 Okhlobystin woke up famous. After the premiere of Interns, which took place the day before, the whole country met Ivan's comedic talent.

Recently Ivan Okhlobystin together with his large family went on winter holidays to the Holy Dormition Pskov-Caves Monastery. Judging by the photographs that the artist shared from the holidays, he and his wife Oksana and six heirs spent a lot of time on the street, walking in nature. Even the very low air temperature did not frighten the actor.

Ivan was very pleased with such a family vacation and regularly showed pictures from the vacation. However, after returning home, the star of the series "Interns" felt unwell. About her illness, which became a serious threat to the life of Okhlobystin, the artist spoke only recently, when all the danger had already passed. “Well… I'm back. I was very sick, I thought I would die, but no. Returned. AND!!!" - Ivan wrote on his page (the spelling and punctuation of the author are preserved. - Approx. ed.).

Such news for the subscribers of the actor was an unpleasant surprise. After all, none of them even knew that the actor was ill, and even more so that his life could be in serious danger. Many expressed their willingness to help morally and financially and supported the artist, who does not disclose other details of his illness.
