Fans of the creator will remember him from many iconic roles. He entertained himself to tears as Stanisław Maria Rochowicz in the film “Wanted, Wanted”, appeared in “Brunet in the Evening Time” and “CK Deserters”. In later years, he appeared, for example, in the series “Honey Years”, where he played Edward Rudnik, Alina Krawczyk’s father.
Wojciech Pokora spent his whole life with one woman. They got married secretly
The actor led a happy life with his wife Hanna. The couple got married in 1957 and fulfilled the promise made at the altar, they did not part until his death. The lovers had two daughters – Anna and Magdalena, and five grandchildren. One of them is Agata Nizińska, singer, film and cabaret actress.
The love that Wojciech Pokora experienced is very rare. The couple had already met in school, but interest in the relationship was initially one-sided. Hanna did not think well of her future husband – “conceited, unsympathetic, I avoided him with a wide berth” – she said in an interview for “Pani”. “If someone had told me then, in high school, that he would become my husband, I would not have believed it” – the wife of Pokora WP.
Wojciech Pokora knew that winning Hanna’s heart would not be easy. He decided to pretend he wasn’t interested while trying to win her affections. He decided that first he had to convince the girl on a friendly level. He took her to the cinema, the philharmonic, but he did not impose himself or seduce her. The girl, accustomed to the advances of other men, was intrigued. “She didn’t even notice when I fell in love with him,” she recalled.
Wojciech Pokora hid the wedding from his family. There were only witnesses at the ceremony
The actor quickly proposed to his beloved, giving her wild flowers. However, the couple encountered obstacles. Pokora’s parents were against the relationship, they did not like Hanna. The woman’s family also had reservations about the relationship of lovers. Pokora mentioned in his biography that his mother found him another candidate for a wife.
The actor had adversity for nothing. He knew what he wanted and wouldn’t let anyone get in the way of his plans. He married Hanna in secret, without a grand wedding or even a photographer. There were only young people and witnesses at the ceremony. The difficult trial of Pokora’s marriage came right after the wedding, the couple had no place to live, despite the formalization of the relationship, the lovers had to live separately and meet secretly.
But over time, everything fell into place. Hanna gave up her acting career for the sake of marriage and has repeatedly struggled with the jealousy of her husband’s fans. However, the couple loved each other until the end. Hanna, even before her husband left, in an interview for “Pani” pointed out that after so many years it was difficult to talk about a fiery feeling, but she declared that the marriage still likes each other and looks at each other with great tenderness.
