Olga Vandysheva

At the end of December, at Moscow's New Year's Eve VIP parties, one of the gossip discussed was the news that Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev intended to intermarry with the president of the Moscow company Crocus International, Aras Agalarov.

And soon such rumors began to come from Baku. On the eve of Eid al-Adha eldest daughter Aliyeva Leyla got engaged to 25-year-old Emin Agalarov, the son of Aras Agalarov.

This surname says little to the general public, but Agalarov Sr. is one of the richest people Russia and a very prominent character in the secular hangouts of Moscow. And the son is still among the most eligible suitors. He is attractive, well educated (he studied in the US and Switzerland), and most importantly - the heir to a multi-million dollar fortune.

Back in 2004, Forbes magazine included his father in the top 100 richest Russians, placing him in 66th place with a capital of $360 million. Agalarov Sr. himself boasted that by 2008 he plans to increase his capital to $1 billion. Agalarov's empire is really growing every day and is amazing. For example, the pediment of a residential apartment building, which the businessman built in the historical center of Moscow, is decorated with a huge plaque with his last name. Although the owner himself occupies only two apartments here, and sold the remaining 32, one - to Zurab Tsereteli.

A few years ago, Agalarov built the first hypermarket in Russia. And his most famous project is the Crocus City trade and exhibition complex near Rublyovka, where the Millionaires Fair was recently held.

The son does not lag behind the father. Today he is commercial director"Crocus International" and increases the company's turnover. In general, the Agalarovs do everything on a grand scale and, apparently, live according to the principle “to steal, like a million, to love, like a queen.”

Leila and Emin

The daughter of the President of Azerbaijan officially got engaged to the son of a Moscow multimillionaire

Rumors about the engagement of the daughter of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev Leyla and the son of Moscow multimillionaire Aras Agalarov Emin appeared in the press in mid-January. In fact, the young couple got engaged only last Sunday. The ceremony took place in the country residence of the Aliyevs near Baku, where the mother of the groom, Irina Agalarova, put earrings from the latest jewelry collection into the ears of her future daughter-in-law. With exclusive details, the society columnist Bozena Rynska .

Emin Agalarov is a bridegroom with a dowry, the fortune of his father Aras Agalarov is estimated by Forbes at $360 million. Agalarov Sr. owns Crocus City Mall and part of the shares Cherkizovsky market. However, Emin Agalarov is beautiful not only with his father's condition. His assets include his own acumen and efficiency. Now the twenty-five-year-old representative of the Agalarov dynasty is the commercial director of Crocus International.

Leyla Aliyeva, a beautiful young girl who looks like her mother Mehriban, was brought up in a Swiss school. Emin Agalarov, a handsome young man who inherited his father's love of classical music and business skills, studied in the United States. They were presented at one of the Swiss ski resorts, and it immediately became obvious to the whole district how the matter would end. However, with oriental beauties it is not as easy as with Moscow ones. Even in order to just start caring for the daughter of a "person of this level", you need to ask permission from the "person ..." himself. (Those who make eyes without the highest permission can easily fly out of Forbes list under Chita).

And a year ago, the then Minister of Transport of Azerbaijan officially turned to Ilham Aliyev and asked him to allow a positive young man Emin Agalarov to look after the princess. But, despite the fact that the Agalarov and Aliyev families had known each other for a long time, the president sharply refused.

History is silent about what his daughter arranged for him. According to some reports, in the boarding schools in Switzerland, where Leyla Aliyeva was brought up, the pupils are instilled with might and main feminist heresy. But in the end, everything ended happily: negotiations took place in the summer and autumn, and Ilham Aliyev allowed himself to be convinced by the Agalarovs.

And last Sunday, Emin Agalarov and Leyla Aliyeva got engaged. The ceremony was held in a narrow family circle. The mother of the groom - Irina Agalarova with youngest daughter now lives in New York, where the girl (also a future princess with a dowry) is finishing school. A private jet was sent for them. And, having picked up the groom with his father in Moscow, the board went to Azerbaijan. In the country residence, the Agalarov family was met by: President Aliyev with his wife Mehriban Aliyeva, their children - two daughters and a son, as well as Mehriban's sister - Narkis Khanum Pashayeva (bearing her father's surname) with her new husband, a famous Baku artist. Here, according to the Eastern tradition, Irina Agalarova put earrings from the latest jewelry collection into the ears of her future daughter-in-law.

After dinner, Emin Agalarov demonstrated another of his many skills to the Aliyev family - he sang several numbers in a luxuriously choreographed baritone. And under the songs from the repertoire of Tom Jones and Frank Sinatra, the head of the family was able to finally make sure that they did not lose with the groom.

Ani and Aras Iskenderovich

According to rumors, Emin's father settled the singer, who fell into disfavor in Ukraine, in his elite village near Moscow

The other day, rumors spread on the Internet about the pregnancy of a 38-year-old Ukrainian singer Karolina KUYOK, better known under the stage name Ani LORAK. The reason for such conclusions was one of her photos on Instagram, in which fans saw her rounded belly. The most interesting thing is that in this photo the singer was gently hugged by the not-legal husband and father of her daughter Sophia - the Turkish businessman Murat with the unpronounceable surname NALCHAJIOGLU, and the Azerbaijani billionaire Aras AGALAROV - the owner of the Moscow concert hall "Crocus City Hall" and the father of the singer Emin, her partner duets "Call me" and "I can't say".

Thank you for a wonderful evening dear @agalarovaras! - signed under the photo of Ani Lorak. - Again, happy birthday! Health! Let dreams come true!

I think they have already come true for him, - one of the fans sarcastically commented, apparently hinting at the possible closeness of the oligarch with the beloved singer.

What was our surprise when, in a private conversation with us, one respected producer, whose name we, for obvious reasons, cannot name, mentioned that Agalarov Sr. and Karolina Kuyok really had a close relationship.

Since the new Ukrainian ow Asti does not particularly favor her, her main creative activity in Lately takes place in Russia, - our interlocutor explained. - The Turkish husband comes here only occasionally. And Aras Agalarov provides the necessary support to Karolina. She pays for recording songs and shooting videos with her son Emin. And even provides her with housing in his elite village "Agalarov Estate" on Novorizhskoye Highway. It was there that Carolina celebrated her daughter's birthday this year. There she gave interviews and posed for photographers for fashion magazines. Rumor has it that she enjoys such favor of Agalarov not at all for beautiful eyes and is almost his mistress.

To tell the truth, we couldn't believe our ears. Aras Iskenderovich lived for many years with his wife Irina, the mother of his son Emin and daughter Sheila, and was considered an exemplary family man. Maybe the gossips went too far, attributing to him a relationship with a young singer?

Rumors about Ani Lorak's pregnancy are nonsense, nonsense and complete garbage! - PR director Mikhail Uspensky assured her. - And as for a joint photo with Agalarov ... Well, what kind of relationship can they have ?! It's just that she performs every year with him at the Crocus City Hall. And he invited her to his birthday party. Philip Kirkorov, Stas Mikhailov, and many others were also present there. And everyone, one by one, took pictures with Agalarov. Is it true that Ani Lorak lives in his Agalarov Estate village? - here the PR man suddenly hesitated. - In general, we do not tell anyone the place of residence of our artist. For everyone, she lives on stage. Sorry, I can't talk to you anymore. We are starting a concert, - and hastily turned off the conversation.

Loved married people

The first man of Carolina Kuyok was the producer Yury Falyosa, who promoted her. At the time of meeting him, the future star was barely 13 years old. And her chosen one was already married and had two children. But the girl, rushing to the stage, was not embarrassed.

Officially, Carolina never became my wife, ”Yuri admitted in an interview with Express Gazeta. - We were so absorbed in the work that we did not have time to sign. Yes, and there was no special desire. Still, the age difference of 17 years is a lot. While we went on tour for six months, my wife Olya also started dating someone else ...

Carolina's long-term relationship with the producer suddenly destroyed an acquaintance with another married man- Dynamo Kyiv footballer Sergei Rebrov. He was only 4 years old older than the singer. And they began a stormy romance.

I don’t know what happened to Carolina and this guy, but they completely blew off the roof, ”Thalesa said. - I could not even imagine that she was able to cancel the concert for the sake of meeting her beloved, that she could, without telling anyone, get on a plane and fly to him. Maybe I am big pig, but then I met with the opponent’s wife and did everything possible so that the football player’s family did not break up ...

Well, then Lorak, which has already become famous singer, while relaxing in the Belek resort, she met her current husband Murat. It happened 10 years ago.

But before the couple had time to give birth to a daughter, Sophia, and celebrate a wooden wedding (5th anniversary of marriage), rumors spread that not everything was going smoothly in their relationship.

Ani Lorak begins to learn everything about male treachery, - wrote in " Komsomolskaya Pravda” back in 2011, the famous music journalist Otar Kushanashvili. - Her marriage to the Turk Murat is bursting at the seams; the beautiful tale that he was a businessman, a gigolo gigolo, a classic type did not stand the test; marriage on the way to disaster...

Irina Agalarova, Mackenzie Bezos, Priscilla Chan and Susan Dell not only managed to fall in love with rich, smart and very successful men - over the years they have successfully managed to keep the warmth of the hearth. On the eve of March 8 HELLO! conducted a study - what qualities do the wives of billionaires have who have gone through fire, water and copper pipes with their husbands.

To live with a general, one must marry a lieutenant - the well-known formula for family happiness is actually not so simple. How many lieutenants never reached the rank of general! And how many generals' wives eventually acquired the prefix "ex" ...

Extraordinary men prefer special women. How do they find them? Oh, this is a very subtle point. For example, Bill Gates, having met his future wife, Melinda French, noted an important detail for him: the girl wore flat shoes, such as moccasins. The head of Microsoft shared the opinion of psychologists - the higher the intelligence of a woman, the lower she wears heels. In the future, Melinda did not disappoint him - she really turned out to be very smart. However, the mind is a necessary, but far from the only quality that should be present in a companion of a person with almost limitless possibilities. Including in the choice of companions.

Irina Agalarova

Araz and Irina Agalarov with children Sheila and Emin

wife of one of richest businessmen Russia, the owner of the Crocus Group, Araz Agalarov, managed the almost impossible: her first school love did not melt away like smoke, but turned into a big one. serious feeling. With her future husband, Irina studied in the same class, they got married when they graduated from institutes: she is a teacher, he is a polytechnic. For several years the family lived in Baku, then moved to Moscow.

During the years of perestroika, Araz began to create his own business, while Irina taught English language at school, then worked as a translator in the Ministry consumer services. After the birth of children - son Emin and daughter Sheila - Irina continued to work, began to engage in real estate, in addition to this, she has her own clothing store, beauty salons, a jewelry store, an aesthetics center, at the moment Irina Agalarova also launched her own fur brand DeNoVo.

Irina thinks that main secret family well-being - sincerity and kindness. And also the ability to compromise, which she often has to do. From the outside it may seem, - said HELLO! Irina Agalarova - that Araz does not know how to express his feelings. But he is very attentive to my desires. For example, when my son was still small, I once said: "It would be nice to have a dacha by the sea," and Araz built it. He also helps his friends: if someone gets sick, he will raise the whole city to its feet.
Irina Agalarova with children

And to the question of how not to lose interest in each other for so many years, she answers like this: Of course, this is, first of all, a colossal work on oneself. We must constantly move forward, develop, expand the boundaries of our horizons. Irina is philosophical about wealth and knows very clearly what she is ready to spend money on and what she is not: I think that it is necessary to travel from time to time. You need new experiences, which you then share with friends. I go shopping when I have time or some kind of need. And so especially once - I work all the time. There is almost no free time left. Jewelry for me is just an attribute of an evening dress, nothing more. In general, money is the most difficult exam that we pass in life. Money can make us better or vice versa. It's kind of a strength test.

Mackenzie Bezos admits that she is incredibly lucky with her husband. Although Jeff Bezos, the founder of the Amazon.com online store, is a very odious figure. Some are afraid of him, others dislike him. Like a true workaholic, Bezos squeezes all the strength out of his employees and fires the unwanted without regret. All this cemented his reputation as a tyrant. Impulsive, strange in appearance, assertive extrovert who constantly laughs. It was thanks to this laugh that in 1992 he met his future wife. According to Mackenzie, she herself initiated their relationship. Our offices were nearby, all day long I could hear his amazing laugh. How could you not fall in love? Mackenzie said. Although long before the rise of his career and shortly before meeting with Mackenzie, Jeff launched a kind of "casting of women", which was supposed to help him find a life partner. He approached the issue as the head of the HR department - to search for a candidate for a key vacancy: he systematically made appointments with women whom his friends introduced him to. In an interview with Wired magazine, Jeff said: "I wanted to have an inventive person next to me." Soon such a person was found by himself.

A year after they met, Jeff and Mackenzie got married. In 1994, they moved to Seattle, rented a tiny apartment, placing an office in a garage. There was a catastrophic lack of money, even Jeff had to knock together bookshelves from ordinary boards. There, in the garage, the project was born that made Jeff one of the richest people in the world. The business was given to both of them by sweat and blood in the truest sense of the word: husband and wife washed their knees in the blood in the process of many hours of packaging books for sale. When the business began to bring in good money, Mackenzie, who had graduated from Princeton University, decided to become a writer.

In 2005, she released the novel "The Trial of Luther Albright", soon awarded the American Literary Prize, in 2013 her second book, "Traps", was published. Mackenzie supports her husband in everything. When a certain Brad Stone published Jeff's biography "Everything Store", she, like a lioness, rushed to the defense of her beloved - she devoted a devastating article to the book, pointing out factual errors to the author.

Jeff is known for his stinginess - in his company it is forbidden to use a color printer, often the expenses of employees on business trips are not paid. Even coffee in the office is paid. But the wife seems to be condescending about this quality: she is not interested in boutiques or real estate and is very moderate in spending. Her biggest "spending" - 15 million dollars, which she donated to higher education research nervous activity at his native Princeton University.

The phenomenon of Priscilla Chan is trying to unravel hundreds of thousands of women around the planet. Why is she? For many, the question sounds more utilitarian: Why didn't I end up next to him in that bathroom line? The almost anecdotal story of their acquaintance is known to everyone who has ever been interested in the personality of Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of the social network Facebook. Then they were both students at Harvard University, and at one of the parties, the hand of fate simultaneously directed them to the cherished door to heaven. He looked like a nerd boy, a bit out of this world. I remember that he had a mug of beer in his hands,” says Priscilla. Those who ask themselves the question "Well, why not me?" overlook one detail. Mark's beer mug was #include . And Priscilla laughed at this joke... Could you keep up the conversation?

Due to the fact that the boyfriend was busy all the time, Chan had to introduce some rules: the founder of Facebook had to give her at least 100 minutes a week (about two hours) and take her on one date. Mark and Priscilla moved in in September 2010, and in March 2011 they started legendary dog Bista and finally updated their Facebook status to "in a relationship." The couple married nine years after they met. In December 2015, their long-awaited daughter Max was born.

We have always tried to stick to our goals, our beliefs and what we like to do in life - and we like very simple things, - said Priscilla.

The appearance of Zuckerberg's wife has long been the subject of discussion of millions of envious people on social networks.

She does not do liposuction and does not increase her bust, does not use cosmetics and often forgets to shave her legs. She does not wear any branded items, the Western press writes about Chan.

However, the fact remains - next to Priscilla, Mark is shamelessly happy. And this is an emotion of such intensity that it is impossible to portray in front of the camera. Her influence on her husband is so great that comparisons with Yoko Ono and John Lennon involuntarily arise.

Priscilla is a Chinese American. Her parents are impoverished immigrants who left their homeland on a boat of refugees. First she became the best student in school, then she graduated from Harvard, worked for a year as a middle school science teacher. And in 2009, she entered the medical school of the University of California to become a pediatrician. At dinner, Chan used to share stories with Mark about little patients dying in anticipation of the organs they needed. Thanks to her, Facebook users have the opportunity to assign themselves the status of a donor and find out the address of the nearest hospital where they can donate blood. The Zuckerberg family is engaged in philanthropic activities of an unprecedented scale. He is incredibly sensitive, he really thinks about how to help people in need and wants to make someone's day better. I see Mark like this and I would like others to see him like that, says Priscilla.

Michael and Susan Dell

Her husband Michael, the founder of the Dell computer corporation, is considered one of the richest and most influential people in the world. He started his business by setting up an office future company right in the University of Texas dorms. His affairs went uphill sharply, but his personal life did not work out. And then Michael decided on a blind date. They met with Susan in a bistro, the leggy blonde conquered him not only with external data, but also with entrepreneurial talent. A fashion designer by education, she successfully conducted real estate transactions.

A year later, in 1989, in the same bistro, Michael proposed to Susan. Since then, they have always been together, there are four children in the family, but Mrs. Dell is not limited to the duties of a housewife. She is actively involved in sports, even took part in the triathlon world championship. In 2003, she decided to return to her main profession and founded her own Phi clothing brand, which was very positively received by critics. But in the crisis of 2009, the designer brand went bankrupt, and Susan switched to charity. Michael supported his wife at a difficult moment: they created charitable organization The Michael and Susan Dell Foundation, which works on school education for the poor, as well as the fight against obesity and overweight in children and adolescents.

We all work very hard, - says Susan, - and it would probably be logical for us to have a snack on fast food or put a basket of sweets on the table to make up for the energy expenditure of children. But we never do that. All biographers of Michael agree that, being an extraordinary entrepreneur, he owes all his achievements to his own ingenuity. And only one lucky lottery ticket went to him "just like that" - this is a beautiful wife.

The singer's wife is actively engaged social activities, publishes the magazine itself and is the head of the cultural fund.

However, soon the couple began to move away from each other, and their marriage began to be formal. In the spring of 2015, they announced a divorce.

Now they have maintained friendly relations, and the boys are brought up together.

Amin spends a lot of time with them and with little Amina, whom Leila adopted.

Sometimes he takes the boys with him on tour or to business meetings, as his father once did.
