Danelia met his first wife Irina Ginzburg in 1950. Soon after the first meeting, the young people formalized their marriage, and a year later their daughter Svetlana was born. The birth of a child, unfortunately, did not strengthen the relationship between George and Irina. The marriage broke up, but the former spouses found the wisdom to maintain a warm relationship for the sake of a common daughter.
Next, Danelia's civil marriage was long. The great filmmaker lived with the actress Sokolova Lyubov for more than 25 years. Georgy Nikolaevich long sought the attention of the beauty, but after a few years of marriage he began to cheat on her, often disappearing for several days. When asked why she tolerates such an attitude, Lyubov Sergeevna answered simply - for the sake of her son. In 1959, the couple was born Nikolai Georgievich Danelia.
In 1985 Danelia left Sokolova. A few months later, their son Nikolai died. The reason for leaving the family is the long romance of Georgy Nikolaevich with co-author on the films, Victoria Tokareva. But the relationship did not end in marriage - neither official nor civil.
Almost immediately after the break with Tokareva, Danelia again got carried away. The director's new passion was Galina Yurkova, an aspiring actress from Belarus. Georgy Nikolaevich lived with her until his death. The couple did not have common children. They were replaced by Danelia's daughter Svetlana and grandchildren.

The daughter of George Danelia Svetlana, despite the divorce of her parents, was not deprived of the attention of her star father. The girl often met with him, and the tender feelings of Georgy Nikolaevich for his daughter can be appreciated by the fact that it was Svetlana who became the prototype of the girl-lawyer in the film "Mimino". Svetlana Georgievna gave Danelia a granddaughter Irina.
The son of Danelia's second marriage with Lyubov Sokolova, Nikolai was born in 1959 and lived only 26 years. The boy began his creative career in the first days of his life - he played a newborn in the film "Seryozha". The boy was unusually talented - Nikolai painted beautifully, was fond of poetry, music, played several instruments. By the age of 25, his creative piggy bank had two directorial works - the short films "Eh, Semyonov" and "Snapshot".
