Greek actor Lefteris Eleftheriou has purchased a home for his two children, expressing satisfaction with his personal finances during a television appearance on Friday.
Speaking on the late evening entertainment programme Stin Agkalia tou Fani on Friday, November 6, the performer explained that while he did not consider himself skilled at taking advantage of commercial opportunities, he managed his money relatively well.
Eleftheriou emphasized that his greatest professional achievement was his work in advertising, noting that every promotional campaign he took part in achieved success and won industry awards.
The actor explained that commercial projects had provided his primary livelihood, describing that work as his biggest triumph and stating that it allowed him to acquire a home for his children.
Reflecting on his financial habits, Eleftheriou said he felt somewhat clueless when it came to exploiting opportunities and chose not to place much emphasis on them, adding that he was doing well and felt pleased with his circumstances.
Commercial advertising success
Eleftheriou is widely known across Greece as a comedy actor and television personality, having built an extensive career spanning theatre, satirical television broadcasts, and commercial campaigns.
Commercial endorsements represent a significant source of revenue in the Greek media sector, where established screen and stage actors regularly front promotional campaigns for nationwide brands.
According to the report published by journalist Ioanna Marinou, Eleftheriou credited his consistent advertising success with providing the financial stability necessary to secure property for his family.
The actor stressed that his commercial work had sustained him throughout his career, describing the award winning campaigns as the pinnacle of his professional accomplishments.
Family life and divorce
Eleftheriou shares two children with his former wife, Tatiana Kalantzi.
In June, the actor revealed in an interview with journalist Marilou Pantazi for Gala magazine that he and Kalantzi had separated three years earlier, concluding a 22-year relationship.
Eleftheriou stated at the time that the couple had kept the separation private when it occurred because neither party wished to publicize the end of their marriage.
Discussing his relationship with his family earlier in June, the actor explained that he strove to build an authentic relationship with his children, adding that his home remained open to them and their partners.
In August, Eleftheriou confirmed in an interview with Hello magazine that he had entered a new relationship following the divorce.
The actor stated that while he was willing to declare that he had a partner, he preferred to keep everything low profile because his children were teenagers and he did not wish to cause controversy in interviews.
