Starshova Ekaterina became the most famous child actor in 2007, when the first season of the outstanding series “Daddy's Daughters” was released on the screens of the STS channel. And since then, her life has changed dramatically and continues to change until now, when she has already moved away from her acting career.
Katyushino childhood
Katyusha was born on October 28, 2001 in a Moscow family, whose head was a businessman importing pasta of a famous brand, and her mother worked in a pharmaceutical company. That father is Igor Starshov, that mother is Elena Mikhailovskaya, and even Katya’s grandmother were very athletic people. Dad and grandmother Katya were fond of basketball, my mother was engaged in figure skating, so it is not surprising that the children's photos of Ekaterina Starshova are also related to sports. After all, although she was a very quiet and calm girl, she was engaged in ice skating since childhood, and already at the age of five she took part in the ballet "Aleko" in the international dance competition on ice, which took place in distant France, where their team was honored second place. And in order to develop not only physically, but also spiritually, Katya began to visit the Katyusha aesthetic center, where she studied literature and learned to recite poetry beautifully, which later simply amazed everyone around her.

Star role
If we talk about the series and films of Ekaterina Starshova, then anyone will immediately say that they know her from the famous “Daddy’s daughters”, which appeared on the screen in 2007 and continued until 2013, when the last season of the television series, already called “Daddy’s daughters”, ended "Super Brides." But if it weren’t for the friends of Katya’s parents, then all this would not have happened, because it was they who, seeing the girl’s artistry, advised Katyusha’s mom and dad to send her to the dad’s dad casting, which they did. As many as 200 girls from various families participated in this casting, but the producers chose Katyusha, who won them over with her spontaneity and good looks.
And now, when we look at the photos of Ekaterina Starshova, in which she is depicted in the image of her heroine - Pugovka, we understand that the producers with their choice did not fail. Katyusha ideally suited the role of the youngest, naughty and curious sister from a fun family consisting of a psychoanalyst dad, spider-lover grandmother and five sisters, which were strikingly different from each other. That on the set, that in the series itself, Pugovka became a universal favorite, whom I wanted to take care of and who wanted to be touched.
Movie roles
Although now the height of Ekaterina Starshova is as much as 162 cm, at the time of the debut on television he was less than a meter. Then Katyusha did not even go to school, but she was able to perceive the script by ear and reproduce what she heard so talentedly that it delighted even experienced movie actors. She spent most of her life on the set of Daddy’s daughters, but her acting career did not stop there. Also in 2007, in parallel with the series, she managed to star in the movie "The Mermaid", where although she starred in an episodic role, she was remembered by the audience for the movie. But she left an even more vivid impression of herself, starring in the fantastic blockbuster "Black Lightning" in 2009. There, her role was quite extensive, because she played the sister of the main character Dima - Tanya Maykov.
Final "Daddy's daughters"
A turning point in the life of Ekaterina Starshova is the finale of the television series "Daddy's Daughter", which became a point in her acting career. When the last scenes of the sitcom were shot and a farewell dinner was held, absolutely everyone cried - from the film crew to the actors, but Katya did not utter a tear and was completely calm. But, according to the grandmother of the actress, who spent even more time with the girl than her parents, it was only until the next morning, when Katyusha woke up and realized that now she did not need to run to star, and those who surrounded her more than five years, she will never see. It was then that she had a real hysteria. However, this did not last long, Katya managed to cope with her depression and she plunged into real life, where there was no place for acting.
Work on television
But the biography of Ekaterina Starshova will not be complete if we talk only about her work in series and films, because in addition to this, the actress participated in many projects.

Figure skating
As we already said, Catherine Starshova from childhood was engaged in figure skating and achieved considerable success in this field. However, after she began acting in the television series "Daddy's Daughters" and went to school in 2008, she no longer had time for this hobby. Every minute was counting, so I had to forget about figure skating exactly until the moment the shooting in the series ended. True, the girl was immediately bombarded with offers to star in other films or series, but she immediately rejected them, deciding to live her life outside of television cameras. So she again returned to her childhood hobby, becoming constantly trained, remembering forgotten skills and hone her skills on the rink of the Moskvich Sports Palace. And then Katya began to perform extremely difficult tricks and spins, which helped her to take prizes in various competitions, so now the girl even thinks about conquering the Olympics-2022.
Personal life
If you look at the publicly available biography with a photo of Ekaterina Starshova, you can see that in some pictures she does not show off alone, but with a handsome young man. She met this young man named Vasily at the rink. At first they trained together, then they began to carry out complex supports, and as a result, they truly fell in love. They were constantly together, sharing work and leisure, sincerely enjoying each other. Many fans of the actress already thought that they would always be together, especially since in some photos Katerina was dressed in a snow-white dress, which, however, turned out to be only part of the photo shoot. But, unfortunately, the relationship of Katya and Vasily, as the relationship of many other couples of this age, were short-lived, and the lovers broke up, remaining friends.
Future plans
And now, when we learned about the growth of Ekaterina Starshova, her personal life, acting, hobbies and hobbies, it remains to find out what she wants to achieve in the future. Katie's fans, who loved her so much for the role of the Button, are, of course, convinced that the girl will go to the theater institute to become an outstanding actress in the future. However, this is not at all true. Instead of theater, Katerina is going to study at a medical university in order to become a doctor in the future and save human lives. As for the acting career, she already had enough of it, and, enjoying the stellar life, she decided to put an end to her forever. So all that remains is to wish her good luck and hope that someday Katya will flash on television for at least a few minutes, giving her fans the happiness of seeing herself.
