Margarita Sukhankina: “Andrey said: “For me, your children will never become family. Margarita Sukhankina told how the mother of her adopted children passed away Unsuccessful marriages and pregnancies

Last year, the soloist of the Mirage group Margarita Sukhankina adopted two children from Tyumen - 3-year-old Lera and 4-year-old Serezha. The singer saw the kids in the program “So far, everyone is at home”, where in a special section they talk about children who do not have mom and dad. And immediately decided to pick them up from the orphanage.

The singer completed all the documents, brought the guys home. On the second day they began to call her mother ... But ... a few months later, the biological parents of Lera and Serezha appeared on her horizon. Alexander and his 25-year-old wife Olga. They said that they really miss the kids, so the kids should live in the house of their mother and father.

Mirage soloist Margarita Sukhankina: "I adopted wonderful babies, and now they want to take them away from me!"

True, life is difficult for them (the biological father of the children was convicted five times and still cannot find a permanent job. - Ed.). Because of this, even the eldest son - disabled from birth - cannot be taken away from the orphanage. But unexpectedly surging parental feelings do not allow them to come to terms with the fact that Lera and Serezha live with a wealthy and famous mother ... Moreover, Olga at that time was expecting another child.

For the singer, this was a real shock: after all, children have long become family to her ...

I won't give my kids away to anyone! Lera and Seryozha lived in an orphanage for six months, no one visited them for six months. Their biological mother is deprived of parental rights. According to the documents, they didn’t have a dad at all: in the column “father” there is a dash. Sometimes Seryozha recalls his former life: “But when we lived with another mother, they didn’t feed us there ...” I asked him if he wanted to see that other mother. He replied no.

So how can I give them away? The kids are legally with me. Now they have warmth, comfort, maternal love.

Alexander and Olga first abandoned their daughter and son, abandoned them, and now they are shouting "help"! But children are not toys...

I don’t want to condemn anyone, but a man who, by the age of 30, already has five convictions, wants to take my daughter and son away from me! What can he give children? Or the mom with bottle problems? Fortunately, even Alexander's mother did not support the impulse of these unfortunate parents. We spoke with her, and she honestly admitted that she was glad that the children were in good hands.

I really enjoy being a mom. Finally, I understand for whom I open my eyes in the morning. I have a meaning to life. Fur coats, diamonds, resorts - I have already seen all this. You have no idea what I feel when I come home, and my children fly out of the house screaming towards me: “Hurrah! Mommy has arrived! Now I can call myself a really happy woman.

5 years ago, the singer became a mother to two orphans - a boy and a girl. Woman's Day found out how Margarita and her children are doing now.

Margarita Sukhankina has come a long way on the way to women's happiness. The beautiful singer was married several times and tried to have children, but she first found the joy of motherhood five years ago: in December 2012, she adopted a three-year-old girl and adopted a four-year-old boy. About how she decided on this, how she brings up long-awaited children and what progress they are making, the “golden voice” of the Mirage group spoke in an exclusive interview with Woman’s Day.

Adoption is not easy, it is not “today I wanted it - I did it tomorrow”, it is a long process. I went a long way to this, I myself tried many times to become a mother. I always wanted to have children, I really wanted to. When I realized that I would no longer have my own, I began to think about different options. I also considered the option of artificial insemination and surrogate motherhood. And then I realized that there are a huge number of children in orphanages and that if I take someone away from there, it will be the best thing in my life - to make someone who lives in a government institution happy. My life has turned out in such a way that there were mistakes in it, which led me to this step. I did it quite consciously, having analyzed everything and consulted with my parents. Thank God, my mom and dad are alive and well, they have been living together for more than 60 years. They supported me in this matter. Initially, I wanted to take one child, but I took two, because they are inseparable - they are brother and sister. I chose them with my heart and realized that this is a one-way ticket: I will live with them all my life, no matter what happens. They will always be by my side. And I will always be there for them. And all thanks to God. Anything has happened in these five years, but we live in perfect harmony, I adore my children, they are my best. I understand that I made the right choice, it was for these two that my heart responded, so I felt them. With other wonderful children, it was not so that I was so drawn to them. It feels like they are my flesh and blood, that I gave birth to them myself.

- What would you advise to those of our readers who still hope to have their own children, up to what age should this be decided?

“In my life, I realized that you don’t have to wait for anything. And in no case, if your daughter's pregnancy happened early, you can not push her to do the wrong thing. When the pregnancy came, then it was necessary. And the sooner it comes, the better. The best period, of course, is from 20 to 30 years, when a woman is in her juice. And don’t let any difficulties scare you: God gave a baby - he will give a baby too. Remember this saying. Of course, today women give birth at any age, but still it is better to decide by the age of 40. Further, it is unsafe for both the health of the woman and the health of the baby. We already have enough environmental problems. And then 40 years is the deadline.

- If the body allows you to use artificial insemination or ask another woman to bear the child, then what is the best thing to do, in your opinion - give birth to your biological child in this way or still adopt?

- Children are all equal, and I would advise you to adopt.

- How many orphanages did you visit before your heart felt: here they are, my little bloods?

- A lot, I traveled all over Moscow and the Moscow region. And I saw my children in Timur Kizyakov's program “So far, everyone is at home” under the heading “You will have a child”. He also has a website where all the children from all over Russia are collected, their life is shown there, how they grow up, how they play. It's very convenient to be able to see it that way. You look and think: I would take this baby for myself. It happened to me as well. Mine are big now. Valeria is 8 years old, Sergey is 9 years old. Both go to school: Lerochka is in the second grade, Seryozha is in the third. Successes - in every way (we have twos and fives): children are children. But they are trying very hard. I never scold grades: we only correct them. Mostly errors in the Russian language and mathematics, but more from inattention. Especially Seryozha, my boy is absent-minded, a little romantic, periodically hovers in the clouds. And Lerochka is hard in the sense that she is left-handed with us. At the same time, they both work with me additionally. Serezha goes to a music school, plays the piano beautifully. Lerochka is engaged in choreography, dancing. Serezha still goes to the sports section at the school for basketball. He loves sports. In the yard, they also put a ring on him, and he plays there. Still riding a bike. So the kids are busy from morning to night.

Margarita Sukhankina is a pop and opera singer with a unique crystal clear mezzo-soprano voice. Thanks to her innate talent and perseverance, she was able to achieve incredible heights, become famous and wealthy. Perhaps thousands or even millions of people envy her. But the singer's life seems like a fairy tale only from the TV screen. Now you will find out why.

Childhood

Margarita Sukhankina was born in 1964 in an average Soviet family, which was not very wealthy. Her parents were metropolitan engineers and, perhaps, Rita would have followed in their footsteps, but from an early age she showed simply incredible vocal abilities. Already at the age of 4, she became a young soloist at the Palace of Pioneers and Schoolchildren on the Lenin Hills. A couple of years later, she began attending a music school, learning to play the piano.

At the age of 11, Rita became the soloist of the senior group in the children's choir of the All-Union Radio and Central Television, which at that time was led by Viktor Popov. From that moment on, Sukhankina's childhood ends. She regularly tours with the choir throughout the USSR, participates in television filming.

Youth

After school, Rita graduated with honors from a music and pedagogical school, but neither the first nor the second time she could enter the conservatory. Only three years later she was accepted into the Gnesins State Pedagogical Institute, where Sukhankina studied for a little over a year. She took the documents, as the teacher decided to retrain her to sing in a different manner: the teacher was sure that Rita should sing soprano, while she naturally had a mezzo-soprano.

A year later, her persistent character brings long-awaited results. Rita's talent was nevertheless considered by the commission, which accepted her to study at the conservatory. After receiving a diploma, Margarita becomes an opera singer, performing on the stage of the capital's Bolshoi Theater.

The beginning of a musical career

Margarita shone on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater for 10 years. All this time she has been actively interested in pop music and has been recording songs with her good friend producer Andrey Lityagin. Soon, the Mirage collective sang in her voice, most of the songs of which were performed by Sukhankina, and the rest by Natalya Gulkina. Despite the fact that the popular group earned simply astronomical money thanks to all-Union tours, Rita did not demand any fee for using her vocals. Pop song has become a real hobby for her.

Only when her hits began to sound from almost every radio in the country did Sukhankina get really scared. The opera singer turned to Lityagin with a request that no one, anywhere, know who really owns the voice recorded on the records of the Mirage group. She worried about her career and feared that she might be expelled from the conservatory. That is why the fans of the pop group for decades had no idea that Natalya Vetlitskaya, Irina Saltykova and Tatyana Ovsienko only opened their mouths to the soundtrack.

Out of the shadows

Sukhankina remained an anonymous performer until she left the Bolshoi Theatre. Only after that she was able to come out of the shadows and even record her solo Chuvash Album. It was at this time that Russian music lovers were “visited” by nostalgia for the hits of the 80s and 90s. Realizing that there is a great opportunity to catch up, Margarita teams up with Natalia Gulkina. The new team sang with all their favorite voices, and the fans finally saw the real face of Mirage.

The performers not only delighted their fans with old hits, but also recorded a joint album called “Just a Mirage”, which appeared on the shelves of music stores in 2005. And after only two years, the Mirage team was officially reanimated. Andrey Lityagin again became the leader of the group and did everything possible to restore his offspring to its former glory.

The beginning of a solo career

In 2009, the duo recorded another album, called "Thousand Stars", and some songs became real hits, with which Gulkina and Sukhankina went on tour. In 2010, the singers performed at the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver, Canada. Three years later, the last album "Let me go" was recorded.

In 2016, Margarita began her solo musical career, performing songs by the Mirage group, for which she managed to obtain copyright.

Personal life

After graduating from the conservatory, Margarita went to take a master class in Germany, where she met her first husband, the famous Croatian businessman Antun Maruna. Their short, but rather bright romance ended in a wedding. Rita really fell in love with her chosen one, so she changed not only her name, but also her religious views, becoming a Catholic.

Young and happy spouses lived in two countries, often moving either to Germany or to Switzerland. But the ambitious Sukhankina was not satisfied with the role of a housewife. She dreamed of a stage, but her husband did not share her preferences and forbade her to do what she loved. Most likely, this was the reason for the divorce of the couple, who lived together for a little over two years.

After that, the singer got married three more times, but she could not find real family happiness. Her second husband was a composer, the third - a pianist-accompanist, and the fourth - a businessman.

"Love affair at work"

Since 2010, Sukhankina has been in a civil marriage with her old friend, producer Andrei Lityagin. The star couple decided to adopt children: they took the girl Lera and the boy Sergei from the orphanage. This serious and noble gesture provoked a real sensation in the media. The biological parents of the children decided to make an attempt to return them home and restore their parental rights, however, according to Sukhankina, this was all done solely for the sake of PR. The loud statements of the "parents" remained just words that were thrown into the wind in the "Let them talk" studio.

The music played for a while

It seemed that the adopted children only sealed the union of the star couple, but in reality it was not so. Scandals began to occur more and more often between Andrei and Margarita. Sukhankina did not like the attitude of the newly-made father. “He was not ready to give Lera and Serezha his love,” Margarita admits. After four years of living together, Sukhankina and Lityagin parted, but were able to maintain warm friendly relations. At the moment, they are connected only by work. Andrei continues to produce Margarita, doing everything possible to make her solo career as successful as the project called Mirage.

single mother

Margarita herself does not regret anything. She is absolutely sure that she made the right choice and devoted herself to raising children. To raise Lera and Sergey, her old parents help her, with whom Sukhankina lives in her own country house in the Moscow region.

The star mother is constantly interested in the issues of raising children, and she also shares recommendations on her page on the social network. The singer also pleases her multimillion-dollar army of fans by posting photos on Instagram.

In addition to raising two adopted children, the singer is actively involved in the filming of popular television projects, for example, she was a jury member in the show "You're Super". She also pleased the fans by recording a couple of songs with the finalists of the TV show "I Believe".

Margarita Sukhankina - about a difficult life period, relationships with a common-law husband and adopted children:

- Yes, there was a period when I was “left” from the Bolshoi Theater. I worked there for 10 years, but was not needed. It was the end of the 90s. I left there in 2002. It knocked me down a lot and at some point I was ready to go out the window ... My father's illness stopped me - I realized that if I do this, then who will take care of him?

- As for the story with Andrei Lityagin, I can say that this is a person who has always been interested only in money. He believed that I had to plow like a workhorse in order to bring in money. His plans did not include the appearance of children in my life. With all this, he signed the documents, according to which I am the only singer who can perform Mirage songs.

The children were very weak when I adopted them. Now they are all right. Most importantly, we know that we are a family and we are together. I realized how important it is to have a family and I am very happy today. I have children, I have a man. Now I do not want to tell anyone about my personal life.
