Mikhail Baryshnikov family

August 16th, 2008


It’s only natural that a star of Mikhail Baryshnikov would have a few relationships over the years. And, every now and then, those relationships bore fruit (so to speak), resulting in children for the Russian ballet star.

In Baryshnikov’s case there are four children. The first, born in 1981, is daughter Aleksandra Baryshnikov. She was the result of Baryshnikov’s relationship with actress Jessica Lange, who helped him with his English. The two have since broken up, however.

Instead Baryshnikov has found a dancer with whom he shares his heart, Lisa Rinehart. Having engaged in a long-term relationship for several years now, the two have had three kids: Peter, Anna and Sofia. They aren’t likely to marry, however, as Baryshnikov doesn’t hold with legal marriage providing the bind that emotions alone should.

Or something like that.
