Zhanna was found by her relatives without signs of life yesterday evening, June 15, in a country house. The ambulance that arrived on call pronounced him dead.

Information about the death of Zhanna Friske was confirmed by her father. Vladimir Borisovich said that “yes, this is so.”

Let us recall that in 2013 Zhanna Friske was diagnosed with a brain tumor - glioblastoma. The singer passed away at the age of 41.

Friske's husband commented on the singer's death

The common-law husband of singer Zhanna Friske, Dmitry Shepelev, thanked everyone who provided material and spiritual support to Zhanna, who had been struggling with a serious illness for 1.5 years. He wrote about this on his Facebook.

“We always repeated: “Happiness loves silence.” I remain true to these words, because Zhanna remains for me an absolute, pure, unique happiness... I know for sure that we could not cope without you. I want to thank everyone: who donated money for Zhanna’s treatment, prayed for her health, simply thought about her, wished her happiness and strength. I want you to know: these two years are largely your fault. Thank you,” Shepelev wrote.

In the last months of Friske’s life, doctors and a nurse abandoned her

The singer's sister and mother independently looked after Zhanna for six months until her death.

Doctors and a nurse abandoned the dying Zhanna Friske several months before the tragedy. The singer’s sister Natalya told LifeNews about this. According to her, doctors recorded a significant deterioration in Zhanna’s condition six months ago and accepted the fact that they could no longer help her.

Over the past five months, Zhannochka’s condition has worsened, she was often unconscious, all the doctors abandoned her, the sister complained. - Only my mother and I looked after Zhanna. But before that, my mother never trusted anyone to take medications - she did everything herself.

According to her, the last of those who literally ran away from the dying singer was a nurse who was recommended to the Friske family in one of the Moscow hospitals. The woman not only refused to provide assistance to the artist’s loved ones, but also almost killed Jeanne herself.

She seemed wonderful and sensitive to us, but after spending only one night in the house, she simply turned around and left. And she left Zhanna alone. Mom saw this when Zhanna was lying face down on the pillow and almost suffocated, Natalya recalls.

Let us remind you that Zhanna Friske died in her house near Moscow on Monday, June 15, at 22:30. Only an hour and a half after this, her friend Olga Orlova, finally realizing that Zhanna was no longer there, called an ambulance. Arriving doctors confirmed the death of the artist.

Dmitry Shepelev: Zhanna was absolute and pure happiness for me


Zhanna Friske's common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev on his Facebook page thanked everyone who has been with the singer lately.

The common-law husband of singer Zhanna Friske, Dmitry Shepelev, published a post on his Facebook page in which he spoke about the last two years of his difficult struggle with his beloved’s illness and thanked everyone who helped Zhanna during this difficult time. This is Shepelev's first public statement after Friske's death.

We always repeated: “Happiness loves silence.” I remain true to these words, because Zhanna remains absolute for me...

Posted by Dmitry Shepelev on June 16, 2015
- We always repeated: “Happiness loves silence.” I remain true to these words, because Zhanna remains for me absolute, pure, unique happiness. We didn't give up and fought to win. They say that 2 years in such a situation is a long time. But, of course, for us this is very little... - wrote Shepelev.

The artist's common-law husband thanked everyone who helped Zhanna and her family in the fight against the disease - both financially and with prayers and kind words. According to Dmitry Shepelev, now he is going to focus on helping those who, like Friske, are fighting for their lives and health to the end and do not give up.

For a year and a half, Zhanna Friske tried to defeat brain cancer - she was diagnosed with a terrible diagnosis in early 2014. After lengthy treatment in clinics in Germany and the USA, the singer and her family moved to the Baltic states. In the summer of 2014, Friske began to recover: her vision, partially lost due to the tumor, began to return, she noticeably lost weight, stood on her feet and could move around without a wheelchair. Nevertheless, doctors warned that after radiation therapy, Friske may experience complications - post-radiation changes in the brain.

Many stars of Russian show business and friends of the singer expressed their condolences. Among those who until the last moment kept in touch with Friske, who, due to illness, tried to lead an almost reclusive lifestyle, was her colleague and close friend Dmitry Nagiyev. Singer and composer Dmitry Malikov called the words from their last song with Friske prophetic.

The singer, according to her father, will be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in the capital.

Zhanna Friske's son will not be brought to the funeral, fearing for his psyche

The singer’s sister Natalya Friske told LifeNews that at the family council they decided to leave two-year-old Plato in Bulgaria.

The son of Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev will not be brought to his mother’s funeral, so as not to traumatize the two-year-old’s psyche. The singer’s sister told LifeNews about this.

According to her, Shepelev himself will return to Moscow on the first flight to see his wife off on her last journey. Earlier it became known that Zhanna Friske would be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelsk cemetery.

Dima left for Bulgaria with a heavy heart, and as soon as he found out about what had happened, he was going to take the first flight here. They will most likely leave the child there so that he does not see this,” Natalya said.

Now the singer’s relatives and friends are puzzled not only by preparing for the farewell ceremony with Zhanna, but also by resolving questions regarding the future fate of little Plato. According to Natalya, his father will raise the boy.

I hope that we will see our nephew on weekends,” said Natalya Friske.

Let us remind you that Zhanna Friske died in her house near Moscow on Monday, June 15, at 22:30. Only an hour and a half after this, her friend Olga Orlova, finally realizing that Zhanna was no longer there, called an ambulance. Arriving doctors confirmed the death of the artist.

Nevertheless, doctors warned that after radiation therapy, Friske may experience complications - post-radiation changes in the brain.

In recent months, Zhanna Friske lived in Moscow in a country house with her common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev and little son Platon.

Zhanna Friske spent three months before her death in a coma

The father of the popular Russian singer who died the day before, Vladimir Friske, said in an interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda radio that Zhanna Friske spent the last three months in a coma. According to him, the singer’s family did not inform anyone about this fact all this time.

Shortly before her death, the media write, Zhanna Friske stopped recognizing her loved ones. In recent days, the family has not left the singer: doctors have already predicted the imminent end. At the time of her death, her parents, sister Natalia and a close friend, ex-soloist of the group “Brilliant” Olga Orlova, were with her.

Zhanna Platon's son and her common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev were not nearby at the time of death. The father and child are in Bulgaria.

“The child must stay with his father. If he gives it to us, allows us to raise him, we will help, naturally... He will not be left without anyone,” says the singer’s father, Vladimir Friske.

The singer's funeral is scheduled for Thursday, June 18. Zhanna will most likely be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in the Balashikha district of the Moscow region.

Let us recall that Zhanna Friske’s serious illness became known in January 2014. She was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. Viewers collected more than 60 million rubles to help the singer, but she donated some of it to help children suffering from cancer.

Zhanna Friske gained fame as a member of the group "Brilliant", then she began a solo career. She starred in the films “Night Watch”, “Day Watch” and “What Men Talk About”.

Malikov called the words from their last song with Friske prophetic


The famous singer and composer Dmitry Malikov recalled working with Zhanna Friske on a song, which became one of the last in the singer’s career.

Relatives and friends, colleagues and fans of Zhanna Friske mourn the death of the singer. Everyone who cared about the popular performer is trying to support her family in this tragic moment and share their memories of Zhanne as a kind and decent person.

Zhanna Friske recorded one of her last songs as a duet with Dmitry Malikov. It contained the words: “Snow falls quietly on the palm of your hand and melts, it’s not easy for me now, I miss you so much.” As the singer noted, it was these lines that became prophetic, because after that duet the connection between the artists was severed.

I can’t say that Zhanna was my close friend. But I was lucky enough to meet her on the same stage many times, and Zhanna recorded one of her last songs as a duet with me, this was a year and a half ago. The song is very light and danceable, with the words: “Snow falls quietly on the palm of your hand and melts, it’s not easy for me now, I miss you so much.” These very touching words in a sense became prophetic, because then she left for America, there was a very difficult birth, her illness began, and since then we have lost contact. But the song remains, lives on and is liked by many. “I’m now on tour in the north, and when I woke up and opened the news, this news, of course, shocked and shocked me,” Malikov said.

According to Malikov, he learned news about Zhanna Friske’s health from her friend and former partner in “Brilliant” Olga Orlova. The singer believed until the last moment that Zhanna would recover.

During her illness, we did not keep in touch, but I always learned about her condition from Olga Orlova. In the last few weeks and months, I lost track of her, and it seemed to me that the situation was getting better, but everything turned out the other way around,” Dmitry said.

Let us remind you that information about the death of Zhanna Friske appeared on the night of Monday to Tuesday. For a year and a half, the singer struggled with a terrible disease, but still failed to defeat brain cancer. The singer spent her last days unconscious in her house near Moscow. Many stars of Russian show business and friends of the singer expressed their condolences. Zhanna Friske, according to her father, will be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in the capital.

Three mysteries of the death of Zhanna Friske


The details of the death of singer Zhanna Friske are still known from relatives and friends only in the most general terms - Zhanna’s father and friends are in a state of shock. However, what is known also raises questions.

Several months in a coma at home

Zhanna, according to her father Vladimir Borisovich, died in her parents’ house in an elite village in the Balashikha area - the singer returned there after treatment in the USA. Zhanna’s father, in an interview with MK, said that his daughter had been in a coma for the last three months, but they did not want to take her to any hospital. How did this become possible?

Vladimir Borisovich explained this by saying that the doctors, understanding Zhanna’s serious condition, did not want her to die in their medical institution. But why did the family agree to this? How can a person in a coma stay at home? After all, to maintain life you need special devices, a lot of medicines... At the Balashikha Cancer Center they told us that they had not received any requests from Zhanna’s relatives.

According to unconfirmed information, not long ago Zhanna was seen together with her common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev for a walk in the park. However, passers-by could recognize each other...

Why was the ambulance called so late and who was next to Zhanna?

As reported by the media, Zhanna died at half past ten in the evening on Monday, June 15. An ambulance was called to the house in Balashikha only after midnight - and it is said that it was not Zhanna’s relatives who called it, but her close friend Olga Orlova.

When we called Olga Orlova, she said that she could find the strength to tell the sad details only after her friend’s funeral.

— Why didn’t you call an ambulance right away? - we asked Olga.

- I’m not ready to answer you right now...

“The only thing Olga explained was that Zhanna did not have a nurse.

According to Zhanna’s sister, Natalya Friske, cited by Lifenews, a private nurse was hired to care for Zhanna, but she... ran away. Natalya herself and the singer’s mother looked after her sister. Why were the doctors called only almost three hours after Zhanna died? Was anyone with her at the time of her death? There are no answers to these questions yet.

The common-law husband and father of Zhanna Platon’s child, Dmitry Shepelev, was in Bulgaria with his son when Friske died, having flown there the day before the tragic event. Those around Friske said that it was impossible to leave, knowing about his wife’s critical condition.

Zhanna’s parents are ready to raise her son Platon, but Vladimir Borisovich made a reservation in a conversation with us: this will happen if he and his wife “are trusted with the child.”

Dmitry Shepelev must fly to his wife’s funeral, but he will leave Plato in Bulgaria, said Natalya Friske. And in the future it is my father who intends to study Plato. Does this mean that there are internal conflicts in Jeanne's family? God grant that this turns out not to be the case...

Olga Orlova: “Now I’m organizing a funeral, and I’m in so much pain that I can’t explain anything”


Zhanna Friske's closest friend, who took all possible part in rescuing the singer, cannot hold back her tears.

There are no indifferent people either among the singer’s colleagues or all those who sincerely believed in her recovery. Everyone who deeply sympathized with Zhanna Friske at the stage of treatment and struggle for life today speaks and writes about her, thereby expressing their general grief over what happened.

Despite this, the media began to circulate information that two days before the singer’s death, her husband Dmitry Shepelev left with their child for Bulgaria, allegedly leaving his wife.

With the question of why the TV presenter left, we turned to our closest friend Zhanna Friske, who was next to her all this time, trying to save her:

Olga Orlova, friend of Zhanna Friske: “I’m in too much pain, I can’t talk”

— The funeral will take place on Thursday, I will announce the exact time and details later. Now I’m organizing a funeral, and I’m in so much pain that I can’t explain anything, sorry! - Olga could not hold back her tears...

Meanwhile, a growing number of celebrities are expressing condolences over the passing of Jeanne:

But... sometimes even the strongest can’t! You fought to the end! You're the best! You will always be an example for me, of course, and a standard of female beauty! Honey, we won't forget you!

denisklyaver: So early and unfair…..Goodbye Dear Zhannochka……….We mourn……….

lopyrevavika: You never know what will happen tomorrow...and we so often waste precious minutes of our lives on all sorts of nonsense, not realizing that this thin thread can break at any moment. And that’s it...you will never again be able to tell a person how dear he is to you or just take his hand and be silent. Appreciate and love each other here and now, so that later you don’t regret that you didn’t have time to say or do something very important! r.i.p. Zhanna... I wish my friends and family strength to survive this tragedy? Kingdom of Heaven.

Victoriabonya: I don’t want to believe, it’s painful to realize, it’s hard to find words... We all hoped and believed... Rest in peace, Zhanna... May you rest in peace...

Zhanna Friske's father announced the date and place of farewell to the singer

Farewell to singer Zhanna Friske, who passed away tonight, will take place tomorrow in Moscow at Crocus City Hall. The funeral is scheduled for June 18, the singer will be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery. Her father Vladimir Friske spoke about this.

LifeNews for the first time publishes footage of the beginning of Friske’s treatment in Hamburg. Sorry it didn't help.

The channel has a video in which the singer and her family go to the clinic.

Exclusive footage from Hamburg appeared at the disposal of the editors 2-3 months before the first reports about Zhanna Friske’s illness appeared in the press. The video was filmed in October 2013, the year the singer and her family first crossed the threshold of one of the leading European clinics. A couple of months before, the singer stopped appearing in public and posting current photographs on social networks, but colleagues and fans thought that the young mother was recovering from childbirth and was raising her growing son.

At this time, no one except her closest friends and relatives knew about the singer’s problems. On January 15, 2014, the media published the first reports about the singer’s illness. On January 20, family and relatives confirmed in a statement on the singer’s official website that Zhanna was seriously ill.

After Hamburg, the singer's treatment continued at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. Zhanna was ready for any treatment methods, even experiments. Doctors reassure: radiation therapy should help. And indeed, the disease is susceptible. The long-awaited word is remission.

Soon, to continue rehabilitation, Friske and her family moved to the Baltic states. It seemed that she was on the mend: the singer began to regain her vision, partially lost due to the tumor, she noticeably lost weight, stood on her feet and could move around without a wheelchair. However, doctors warned that after radiation therapy, Zhanna may experience complications - post-radiation changes in the brain. And so it happened. The disease has returned. No treatment helped anymore.

Friske struggled with a brain tumor for almost two years, and for the last three months she no longer regained consciousness. Zhanna died in her house near Moscow on Monday, June 15, at 22:30. For a year and a half, she tried to defeat brain cancer - she was diagnosed with a terrible diagnosis in early 2014. However, as LifeNews learned, Zhanna Friske’s attending doctors said that she was brought to die at a cancer center in Moscow. Even then, Friske became blind and was in extremely serious condition. Doctors told investigators that the council refused Zhanna Friske treatment due to high risks.

The singer’s husband, Dmitry Shepelev, according to LifeNews, left Zhanna Friske two days before her death and went to Bulgaria, taking his son Plato with him. Doctors warned him that he might not see his wife alive, but Dmitry still flew abroad.

In the LifeNews studio, Otar Kushanashvili expressed condolences to the family of Zhanna Friske and paid tribute to Olga Orlova, the singer’s friend, who remained with her until the last minute. Otar Kushanashvili is sure that Zhanna always, even knowing about her incurable illness, remained the embodiment of love for life solely for the sake of her son Plato, her husband and family.

Moscow says goodbye to Zhanna Friske


A long line of fans of the singer formed near the Crocus City Hall concert hall, many of them holding flowers.

Farewell to singer Zhanna Friske, who died at the age of 41, is taking place in the Moscow Crocus City Hall concert hall.

The coffin was placed in the hall of the concert hall. There are vases with flowers and wreaths around the coffin. Music plays, and photographs and footage from the singer’s videos are shown on the screen. Jeanne's relatives are near the coffin.

Singers Olga Orlova, Anna Semenovich, Diana Gurtskaya, Ksenia Novikova, singers Dmitry Malikov, Igor Nikolaev, Sergey Lazarev, Mitya Fomin, trainer Edgard Zapashny and many others came to say goodbye to Zhanna Friske.

Hundreds of people have already said goodbye to the singer, they are coming in an endless stream. The tables in front of the coffin are littered with flowers. The farewell will last until 20.00.

About three thousand people came to say goodbye to Zhanna Friske


In Moscow, at least 3 thousand people came to say goodbye to singer Zhanna Friske. TASS reports this.

The famous Russian singer Zhanna Friske died on the night of June 16 at the age of 41 due to brain cancer.

Dmitry Shepelev: “I proposed to Zhanna. And we wanted to get married!”

>The popular TV presenter, the father of the singer’s child, told KP about the last days of the woman he loved.

“Zhanna remains an absolute, pure, unique happiness for me,” her common-law husband, the famous TV presenter Dmitry Shepelev, wrote in his blog after the death of Zhanna Friske.

For two years, Dima, together with Zhanna’s relatives, fought for her life. Alas, the miracle that everyone so wanted to believe in did not happen.

Dmitry Shepelev was not present at the farewell ceremony for Zhanna. At these moments, Dima was with their two-year-old son Plato in Bulgaria, where he left shortly before Zhanna left.

The Komsomolskaya Pravda website managed to talk with Dmitry when he flew to Moscow to say goodbye to the woman he loved and the mother of his son at the funeral.

“I was waiting for my father to arrive to look after Plato.”

— Dima, we bring you condolences from the journalists and readers of KP.

- Thank you. Thank you.

— Your fans are wondering why you weren’t at the farewell ceremony for Zhanna today?

“A few hours ago I was with our child in Bulgaria. And he waited for his grandfather, my father, to come to us at the first opportunity in order to keep an eye on Plato and not leave him alone with the nanny.

The child must be supervised. For us it is very important.

As soon as my father arrived, this happened several hours ago, I immediately

flew to Moscow. Yesterday there was a ceremony for Jeanne's fans. Public ceremony. Today it is much more intimate: liturgy, funeral service and burial. This morning I will be with my beloved woman.

— And they also discussed on the Internet why you flew to Bulgaria on the eve of Zhanna’s departure. I take it because of my son? So that Plato would not be present at his mother’s last moments?

“It was known a month ago that I would take the child to the sea.” Tickets were purchased and visas were issued. During this time we understood that anything could happen. But none of the doctors, neither in Russia, nor in Germany, nor in America, from those with whom I consulted, could say when trouble might happen. It was clear that Zhanna was in critical condition, but no one could predict anything.

This could go on for days, weeks, months. And, of course, no one made any plans. It's all in the family... Let me speak on behalf of the whole family. We agree on the main thing: the child should not suffer. And, if possible, the child should have a full summer. Therefore, we knew in advance that on the 14th, on Sunday, he would fly away to rest.

And you must understand, I spent these two years with Zhanna, without leaving... And I followed her everywhere she was. Because I knew that my loved one needed support. And the fact that this happened due to this, I will say, is nothing other than a monstrous coincidence of circumstances; there is no other way to call it. Of course, if I had a choice, I would want to be with her at these moments. The fact that this happened within 24 hours after we left with the child is nothing more than a coincidence. On the other hand, I am calm for my son and am very glad that all these tragic events are bypassing him. I don't think it's right for him to be there.

“You have to fight even if it’s a game with death”

— The trouble that came to your house is familiar to many. For example, my aunt also died from a similar disease. And there are many such tragedies in the families of KP readers. The question arises: is it really impossible to be cured in Russia, but only abroad there are these miraculous vaccines that can prolong the life of our loved ones for some period of time...

— Russian doctors do a great job. And first of all, I would like to thank the dozens of Russian doctors who were responsive to us. Many people helped us absolutely free of charge.

And they did a lot for our family. More than they should have.

Therefore, first of all, I must say words of gratitude. There are some circumstances that ordinary doctors cannot change. A much more serious question is what treatment is available in Russia...

And, believe me, the treatment that exists now can help a lot of people. But Russian doctors are not omnipotent. There are technologies that, unfortunately, are not available to Russia. For example, only in America. Or in Israel.

This is also no secret. That's why we face the circumstances we face. You can get treatment in Russia. The most important thing is to fight. From the very beginning to the very end. Even if it's a game with death, in my opinion.

— Yesterday there was a very warm farewell ceremony. And it seemed to many that Zhanna saw all the fans who came to say goodbye to her. It is difficult to talk about Zhanna in the past tense. Tell me, did she want to return to the stage? What plans did she have?

- You know, our son has always been a priority for us. This is undoubtedly the most important thing that happened in my life and hers. Therefore, the most important thing we talked about, the most important thing for us, is how we will raise our child. This is exactly what she dreamed about. And that’s exactly what she was talking about. I think that this is much stronger, much greater happiness than going on stage. Although, of course, performing made her happy, because she was born for this.

“The memory of a loved one is the strongest motivation”

- And you wanted to get married, as far as I understand...

- We discussed this. I proposed to her.

— In an interview with KP, you once said that sometimes it’s not you, but Zhanna who supports you and finds wise words. Did she say something about a possible departure or was the topic never brought up?

- No, we never discussed this.

— I know that you are now planning to open an information fund for people who, like Zhanna, are struggling with this serious diagnosis, brain cancer. Are you doing this in memory of Zhanna?

MOSCOW, June 18, 2015, 07:03 - REGNUM Dmitry Shepelev, the common-law husband of Zhanna Friske, told at the Burgas airport (Bulgaria) why he was not at Crocus City Hall, where a farewell to the singer took place on June 17.

According to him, he had to wait in Bulgaria for the arrival of his father, grandfather Plato, who was supposed to stay with the 2-year-old boy. After that, he was only able to get tickets for the evening flight. At the same time, he denied claims that even before departure he knew that Zhanna would die in the coming days: a trip to the sea with Plato was planned a month ago.

“I will probably regret for the rest of my life that this coincided. There can be no talk of any escape or the fact that I took the child from Zhanna,” Shepelev told Super.

According to Shepelev, on June 18 the most important events for the family and for him will take place: liturgy, funeral service, funeral.

Zhanna Friske died on the evening of June 15 at her parents' house in the Moscow region. The singer's father said that she had been in a coma for the last three months.

Singer Zhanna Friske, who died at the age of 41 after a long illness, was buried on Thursday at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in Balashikha, near Moscow.

A serious illness has changed the beautiful singer beyond recognition

A serious illness has changed the beautiful singer beyond recognition

For several weeks, Zhanna FRISKE underwent treatment at the Memorial Cancer Center. Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. Having completed all the necessary procedures, the singer flew to Los Angeles. The day before, American paparazzi photographed the artist during a walk: Zhanna was sitting in a wheelchair, which was rolled down the street by her assistant.

It is known that the singer is courageously fighting a serious illness. Doctors gave the singer a disappointing diagnosis: an inoperable brain tumor. The singer herself refused the operation so as not to harm her child - when the artist found out about her illness, she was pregnant. And only after the birth of Plato, Zhanna completed the entire necessary course of procedures, including chemotherapy. Unfortunately, a fatal illness changed the beautiful singer beyond recognition. However, according to her loved ones, Zhanna is a real fighter: she never gives up and always finds the strength to go to the end.

While walking around Los Angeles, the artist was accompanied by two assistants. Until recently, Zhanna had two people close to her in New York: a friend and a common-law spouse. Every day they took Zhanna to the oncology center for procedures. However, Dmitry was recently forced to return to Moscow to film in the new season of the “Property of the Republic” program. Zhanna's treatment requires large expenses, and Shepelev needs to earn a living. To be closer to his son Plato, Dmitry temporarily settled with his parents Friske ().

“I learned about my daughter’s illness two months after the birth of my grandson,” Zhanna’s father, Vladimir Borisovich, told Express Gazeta. “My daughter began to have terrible headaches. I was one of the last to know about everything. Zhanna didn’t want to upset me, she said: “Daddy, I’m fine.” I understood everything only when I arrived in the States. Zhanna is a very strong person - I have never seen her cry in my life. Even when she was little, I would scold her, but she would grit her teeth and remain silent.

- Why wasn’t Zhanna’s personal gynecologist Semyon Tsinker in the know?

The daughter did not have time to tell him. She was taken by ambulance to the hospital, she was in a coma. - Vladimir Borisovich, is it still possible to have the operation, what do the doctors say?- We went through all Moscow specialized hospitals: from the Burdenko Neurosurgical Institute to the Blokhin Cancer Center. No one can guarantee that the daughter will not die in the event of surgery. Zhanna refused the operation, and this is her decision...()

Protecting the feelings of her parents, the singer did not tell them the main thing: she learned about the tumor during pregnancy, when the tumor could be removed. Why did Zhanna wait until the situation where the tumor could not be operated on? Because of the unborn child,” the artist’s close friend Tatyana barely holds back tears. - Doctors suggested a course of chemotherapy, but how could Zhannochka risk the health of her son, whom she had dreamed of for so many years?!

You should have seen her pregnant - it seemed that there was no happier person in the world. She talked about leaving the stage and planned to give birth to a second or third baby. But she didn’t even manage to nurse her son - after giving birth, she gave him to his parents. In January, Zhanna came to Moscow - despite the fact that she could no longer get up, she herself wanted to take the baby to her parents. It’s a pity that the son didn’t recognize his mother - Zhannochka has changed a lot. This winter the guys wanted to baptize Platosha, but, as far as I know, it didn’t work out.

On June 15, singer Zhanna Friske passed away. Her death shocked the whole country: the smiling, cheerful and beautiful artist was loved by many, and literally everyone hoped for her miraculous recovery. When it became known about Zhanna’s serious illness in the winter of 2014, not only stars, but also ordinary Russians responded to the call to help her financially. The money raised was enough not only to conduct a course of a special experimental vaccine in the USA, but also to help several children suffering from cancer. Zhanna felt better, she returned to Russia and was determined to fight further and make a full recovery. But a miracle, alas, did not happen. A few months ago she became worse, then she stopped recognizing her loved ones and fell into a coma. Zhanna died in her parents' house near Moscow, in the arms of her friend Olga Orlova. On June 16, when the sad news of her passing hit the media, everyone cried, and even nature in Moscow responded to this event with rain. A farewell to Zhanna is scheduled for June 17, and on June 18 she will be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelsk cemetery. “StarHit” decided to summarize all the information about the death and funeral of Zhanna Friske. Memories of loved ones and relatives, photographs and much more - read in our selection.

Attention, the article is constantly updated!

The presenter spoke frankly about his personal drama. On the air of the program, Dmitry talked about how he wrote a book dedicated to the courageous story of Zhanna Friske’s fight against cancer. Shepelev is confident that she will become an example for everyone who finds themselves in a similar situation and suffers from this deadly disease.

At a press conference, the TV presenter spoke about the book, which he dedicated to the memory of the departed singer. Dmitry Shepelev told reporters that he had made a documentary about Zhanna Friske, but did not plan to release it into the world, since he did not have time to record an interview with the main character.

The TV presenter's work began to be discussed even before it went on sale. And on the air of the “Let Them Talk” program, Zhanna Friske’s common-law husband gave his most frank interview. Dmitry talked about how he lived for a year without his wife and how he felt while writing his work.

A graphologist has recreated the late singer's writing style. The inscription will decorate the TV journalist's book, which will soon go on sale in bookstores. The work by Dmitry Shepelev is called “Zhanna. Love and illness in the life story of Zhanna Friske.”

The former participant of “The Voice” gave a real gift to the star’s fans. The man found previously unpublished photographs of the famous singer that were taken on film. The man’s subscribers are delighted with a series of luxurious shots.

An archival photograph of the couple, taken at the birthday party of the singer’s friend, stylist and presenter Vlad Lisovets, has appeared on the Internet. The man remembered the past and wrote that life goes on. Lisovets' subscribers were touched by his publication and the story that Vlad shared on social networks.

It is known that when the artist was ill and in critical condition, she issued a power of attorney for her common-law spouse. StarHit obtained a document according to which Shepelev made withdrawals from the star’s account under a false name.

The departed singer would have turned 42 years old. Zhanna Friske passed away a year ago, the star died after a long battle with brain cancer. On her birthday, she always received many congratulations and flowers. “Beloved, dear, dear, our bright one, today you would have turned 42 years old. A year has already passed, I still can’t believe that you are no longer with us. May everything be fine for you in heaven! Our bright star, we all love you very much and will never forget you. May your memory be blessed, angel,” these are the words left by Zhanna’s fans.

On July 11, the first concert in memory of the famous singer took place at the Alexey Kozlov club as part of the charity project “Zhanna Friske - I’m near!” On Thursday, with the support of the event organizer Alexey Kholoptsev, a press conference was held at the Igor Sandler Production Center with the participation of the Friske family.

The charity refuses to provide reports on the movement of funds intended for the treatment of his daughter. Vladimir Friske intends to defend the good name of his family and figure out where the money that the whole country collected for Zhanna Friske went to.

The dog who spent her last days with the singer died tragically. According to Natalya Friske, the Jack Russell Terrier was hit by a car; the details of the accident are unknown. The family is grieving the loss of their pet. Zhanna Friske's second Labrador dog also suffers from health problems. After the death of his mistress, Ulius was diagnosed with cancer. Natalya Friske fights for the dog’s life, takes her to chemotherapy treatments and walks with her.

The TV presenter's open letter sparked rumors about his possible chosen one. In his address to Zhanna Friske, Dmitry Shepelev mentioned a certain woman who helped him overcome deep depression after the singer’s death. As it turned out, there can be no romantic relationship between Zhanna’s close people. The singer's sister Natalya Friske confirmed this fact. “This is all nonsense. Ksyusha has been married for many years. She has a son and even a grandson,” Natalya told StarHit.

The kids whom the singer helped contacted her in letters. “StarHit” found out how children feel who continue to live thanks to the help of Zhanna Friske. In memory of her, the girls wrote letters where they talked about how she changed their lives.

The photographs published by her close friends, for example, Olga Orlova, Ekaterina Tsvetova, Oksana Stepanova, became valuable to everyone who loved Zhanna. Perhaps only they could know such a Friske. Tender, vulnerable, tired at times, but so dear and close... Now, thanks to the star’s friends, her fans can recognize the real Zhanna Friske. “StarHit” has collected unique archival photos of the departed singer through the eyes of loved ones.

The TV presenter addressed his beloved a year after her death. According to the showman, for a long time he could not come to his senses and realize what really happened. Dmitry Shepelev also stated that for a year there was a woman next to him who tried to save him from despair.

Katya Tsvetova gave an exclusive interview to StarHit. A friend of Zhanna Friske told for the first time how they were looking for an apartment together in Miami, learned about the singer’s pregnancy, and how, shortly before the artist’s death, they went to see their spiritual father.

On the eve of the anniversary of the singer's death, her sister gave her first candid interview. The woman told about what happened to Zhanna’s things, what secrets were kept in her mobile phone and what she dreamed about when she was sick. “On the last day of her life, I was not there. On June 13, I found out that I was pregnant. I arrived on June 15 to tell Zhanna about this. But she developed an allergy, so they didn’t let me see her. On the same day, my sister passed away. At the funeral I held on with all my might. But then all these nerves... I lost my child,” Natalya admitted.

Olga Kopylova gave an interview to Andrei Malakhov’s “Tonight” program. The singer’s mother remembered the brightest moments of Zhanna Friske’s life and talked about how her family was experiencing the most terrible and irreparable loss. “Plato was always nearby, his and Zhanna’s rooms were opposite,” said Olga Vladimirovna. “He talked to his mother, approached her, stroked her hair, touched her fingers. Zhanna did not believe that she would leave. She never talked about death, she knew that she was sick, but she never talked about death. But God ordered it this way.”

Olga Kopylova gave an interview to Andrei Malakhov’s “Tonight” program. Zhanna Friske’s mother told how she survived this terrible year after her daughter left. On the eve of the anniversary of the star’s death, Olga Kopylova showed the artist’s apartment, where she was happy, and also openly talked about her relationship with her daughter’s common-law husband, Dmitry Shepelev.

The three-year-old boy made amazing progress in sports. Together with his father Dmitry Shepelev, the child tried himself as a gymnast. Many noted Plato's dexterity and fearlessness.

The next court hearing took place in Moscow. The question of communication between Jeanne's relatives and little Plato remains open. The Friske family lawyer intends to defend the rights of his clients. “Thanks to Shepelev’s representatives at least for the fact that they objectively explain their position. Dmitry does not have any supernatural demands, and the court took time to review the documents. Therefore, the meeting is postponed to July 15. "- said the lawyer of the Friske family.

The organizers plan to help orphans. The first event was a concert in memory of the singer, which took place on July 11. The artists performed Zhanna Friske's songs in unexpected arrangements.

The singer’s father wants to know what amounts and when were transferred for her treatment. Vladimir Borisovich Friske wrote an appeal to Rusfond with a request to provide data on cash flows that were transferred to the organization for Zhanna.

Dmitry Shepelev allowed the singer’s relatives to see the boy. According to Natalia Friske, the baby is incredibly similar to his mother. At the meeting, the relatives of the untimely departed artist could not hold back their tears. “It was me and my mother,” Natasha Friske shared with StarHit. “Dad couldn’t do it, he wasn’t feeling well.” Dima chose the place himself, he was accompanied by three security guards, and a family psychologist also observed the meeting. Lord, Plato is a copy of his mother. He immediately recognized my grandmother and me and called me Aunt Tata. I couldn’t hold back my tears, because I hadn’t seen our boy for so long. The psychologist asked me to pull myself together. We talked for about half an hour. They gave Platosha toys. I hope that we will continue to see each other."

The charity appealed the refusal to initiate criminal proceedings. This situation arose due to the fact that a report on more than 20 million rubles collected for the treatment of Zhanna Friske has not yet been provided.

Vladimir Borisovich hopes that through the court he will be able to achieve the right to see his grandson. The conflict between the family of Zhanna Friske and her common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev has been going on for almost a year. The parties cannot reach a solution to the problem peacefully. A court hearing is scheduled to take place in early June, which will determine the order of meetings between the singer’s son and her parents.

The TV presenter admitted that he constantly thinks about Zhanna Friske. Little Plato knows that his mother is always there. Dmitry Shepelev raises his son moderately strictly, dresses him to his liking and develops his intellect. “An interesting coincidence: recently my son and I had dinner at a cafe where Zhanna and I had often visited before. And for dessert, from a variety of options, he chose carrot cake. Delicious, I ask. - Very! - Do you really like? - Yes! So, without knowing it himself, he chose Jeanne’s favorite dessert in this cafe. Of course, I told him about it,” Dmitry shared.

The family of the late singer is outraged by the incorrect information in the press. The star’s parents were not invited to the police to clarify the circumstances in the case of the missing millions of Rusfond. “This is not true, the singer’s family was not at any interrogation. We continue to work with Dmitry Shepelev’s lawyers,” the lawyer said.

During the broadcast of the NTV channel “Zvonok”, Vovan and Lexus tried to bring Dmitry Shepelev and Vladimir Borisovich to the negotiating table. Despite many disagreements, both sides expressed their readiness to meet each other halfway in the interests of little Plato.

The singer's father does not want personal information to be broadcast. Vladimir Borisovich sent a letter to the head of the TV channel. He believes that his rights were violated. He is outraged that the presenters found out family secrets by deception.

The singer’s family, as well as her common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev, as the official guardian of Plato’s son, entered into inheritance rights. However, how much money Zhanna Friske’s relatives will share is still unknown.

Olga Vladimirovna remained silent for a long time. The scandal that erupted over the money collected for Zhanna Friske’s treatment affected her mother’s state of mind. It is difficult for a woman to endure attacks on her family.

The parties are preparing for the trial. The family of the late singer Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev will try to come to a common opinion in an acute conflict that has been going on for several months.

Alexander Dobrovinsky said that the whole truth will be revealed in the near future. For a long time, there was no progress in the case of missing money that the whole country collected for the treatment of a seriously ill singer. Apparently, the situation has changed, and the investigation was able to find out who is actually guilty of the disappearance of a large sum.

A friend of the singer who tragically passed away spoke for the first time about what she thinks about the tense relationship between her family. Olga Orlova would like to reconcile the family of Zhanna and the artist’s common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev.

The singer's sister told why this happened. Natalya Friske congratulated the baby on her Instagram page and admitted that she loves him more than life itself. “Dima took Platosha away,” Zhanna’s sister, Natalya Friske, shared with StarHit. – It seems to be to Belarus. Therefore, it was not possible to congratulate him. We hope that as soon as he returns, he will allow us to meet our beloved boy."

Zhanna Friske's son Platon turned three years old. Natalya wrote warm words about her beloved nephew on her Instagram page. The singer’s sister admitted that she loves the baby more than life itself.

Zhanna Friske's father commented on rumors that the TV presenter does not give him the opportunity to congratulate his grandson. This week little Plato will celebrate his third birthday, and the singer’s family would like to be with him on this day.

Andrei Grozny openly spoke about his affair with the star. He announced that he proposed marriage to Zhanna Friske, but she refused him. The producer was one of the last to learn about the singer’s incurable illness.

32-year-old lawyer Radik Gushchin asked for forgiveness from the singer’s family. The man admitted that he did not want to hurt Zhanna Friske’s family and friends, and therefore considers it his duty to tell how everything really happened. “I never knew Zhanna,” admitted Gushchin.

“StarHit” arranged a meeting between Natalia Friske and a psychic. Mohsen Norouzi predicted that the singer’s relatives would soon see Plato, but the boy would live with his dad, and a girl would be born into their family - a copy of Jeanne.

Olga Orlova’s video “Farewell, my friend” evoked strong emotions among the singer’s fans. The heartfelt lines of the song accompanied by the video sequence with the participation of the departed Zhanna Friske did not leave anyone indifferent.

The first court hearing took place in Moscow, during which the family of Zhanna Friske is trying to reach an agreement with Dmitry Shepelev about communicating with Plato. Only representatives of both sides and a man who calls himself the possible father of the singer’s son are present at the trial. StarHit published the first photos from the courtroom.

Olga Orlova spoke about how Zhanna Friske’s little son Platon is growing up on the air of the “Tonight” program with Andrei Malakhov. “Plato is a wonderful, active, cheerful, smart kid,” the singer shared. - He’s already talking with all his might. I love my godson very much, I see him as often as possible. I will try to be a good godmother for him.”

The singer noted that it was her duty to tell the world about her beloved friend. Olga Orlova and Zhanna Friske were inseparable for many years. A loved one of the untimely deceased star considered it necessary to record a song for her that would find a response in the hearts of millions of people.

The investigation is finding out where the debt to Rusfond went. The star's relatives only partially reported on the amount of money missing from Zhanna Friske's account. “The answer came that the singer’s father, Vladimir Borisovich, did not make any transfers or withdrawals from Zhanna Friske’s account, where Rusfond sent donations,” explained a source from the Investigative Committee.

Vladimir Friske is outraged that their family was accused of theft. Relatives of Zhanna Friske said that they are ready to account for every ruble spent, and they have saved all payment documents.

Having never received a report on the money that disappeared from Zhanna’s account from either the Friske family or Dmitry Shepelev, the charitable organization Rusfond turned to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation with a request to initiate a criminal case into the theft of funds. “We only had a card with money from RusFond for a month and a half, and we will account for all expenses incurred during this time,” Vladimir Friske told StarHit. “We didn’t take anything extra.”

Today, the first meeting took place in the Khamovnichesky Court of Moscow, at which the procedure for communication between Zhanna Friske’s parents and their grandson was discussed. The whole country followed the development of this story and, perhaps, every second person discussed the details of the family drama.

Initially, nurse Christina Rose, who became a writer, planned to release a book about the life of Zhanna Friske called “Cardiogram of Life” in the fall, as StarHit already wrote. However, some difficulties arose: at the printing house the writer was asked to correct the manuscript. As a result, the first biography of Zhanna Friske was published only in December.

The conflict between Jeanne's dad and her common-law husband has been going on for six months, since the singer's death. They cannot share custody of the artist’s two-year-old son Plato. But it seems that both are already tired of the fight. Vladimir Borisovich admitted to StarHit that for the sake of his grandson he wants to make peace with Dmitry.

On the eve of the holiday, Natalya Friske shared her memories of what the last New Year celebration was like with her sister. A relative of Zhanna Friske told what the artist dreamed of and what wish she made during the chimes.

Before Zhanna Friske’s relatives had time to move away from the scandal with Dmitry Shepelev, a new one broke out. This time, a certain Radik Gushchin declared that he was the real father of two-year-old Plato. According to 32-year-old lawyer Gushchin, three years ago he had an affair with Zhanna, albeit a short one - from June to August 2012. And then the singer told him that she was expecting a child. However, StarHit managed to find out that the Friske family does not even know Radik.

The charity organization that collected money for the treatment of Zhanna Friske has been waiting for several months for a report from the singer’s relatives. As written on the official website, on December 14, Rusfond handed over to the notary who is handling the star’s case a statement of claims to the inherited property.

Zhanna Friske passed away in June of this year. The artist died in Moscow after a long battle with brain cancer. “Yesterday in the Yelokhovsky Cathedral a memorial service was held for the deceased servant of God Zhanna (baptized Anna). Hundreds of people came to honor the memory of the singer. They all lit candles at the icon of the Kazan Mother of God and wrote notes,” the temple minister, Father Alexander, told StarHit.

Six months ago, after a long battle with brain cancer, the singer left, but her work continues to live on. In addition, numerous fans of the artist re-read the interview with Zhanna and discover new facets of her personality and soul, which has always been open and kind.

Attempts to share custody of the artist’s only son finally quarreled Zhanna’s relatives with her common-law husband and father of two-year-old Platon, Dmitry Shepelev. The inheritance also became a stumbling block, because before her death the star never wrote a will.


 Today, the family counted down exactly six months from the day their Zhanna passed away. All these months, literally every day, fans did not stop remembering their idol with warm words. Some dedicated poems to the deceased star, others created collages from photographs of Friske and her son Plato, so that at least in the photographs the two-year-old child could be close to his mother. StarHit has collected some of the most touching family photos.

Artist Nikasa Safronov will put the painting up for auction, and the funds raised will be transferred to 11-year-old Natasha Dolmatova from Perm. She suffers from brain cancer, an ailment that the singer struggled with.


 The family of the untimely deceased singer appeared in the studio of the “Let Them Talk” program to tell the truth about the real relationship between Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev. The artist's relatives are still trying to get the right to see little Plato, but they are unable to come to an agreement with the child's father.

After her death, the father of Zhanna Friske’s child did not have a good relationship with her family. Now, according to Dmitry, the situation is out of control. In this regard, Shepelev is forced to address the public for the first time to tell his version of what is happening between him and Zhanna’s father. The TV presenter published a video message in which he admits that a recent meeting with Vladimir Borisovich turned out to be a lot of stress for him and little Plato.

Almost six months after the death of Zhanna Friske, the star’s best friend Olga Orlova spoke about how she felt. The ex-soloist of the group “Brilliant” admitted that she still cannot believe what happened and that most of all she is worried about the fate of the son of her untimely deceased friend. Orlova noted that little Plato became a special godson for her, and she feels incredible responsibility for him. Olga also added that no one can replace a child’s mother, but the singer herself will do everything possible to make Plato always feel like a happy child and understand that he is loved.

Until now, family and friends cannot come to terms with the irreparable loss. Natalya Friske admitted on social networks that she sees her beloved sister in her dreams every day. The girl also admits that she misses Zhanna very much and cannot remain silent about it.

Zhanna Friske's family plans to erect a monument at the singer's grave. Relatives of the tragically deceased star are in search of a suitable sketch. On social networks they turned to Friske’s fans with a request to voice their ideas. So far, the artist’s family has settled on the option of a full-length monument, where Zhanna would be in a white dress.

Natasha Dolmatova was among the children to whom Rusfond allocated part of the funds collected for the treatment of Zhanna Friske. An 11-year-old girl took a course in Germany and felt better. A month ago she was examined, and doctors discovered that she had metastases. At the moment, the girl needs help from qualified specialists. There is a chance for recovery, but only if it becomes possible to eliminate the metastasis. To do this, Natasha Dolmatova’s family needs to raise 200 thousand euros. The girl's mother appealed to the public asking for help.

Zhanna Friske's close friend Olga Orlova, after the tragedy she experienced, is gradually returning to normal life. The singer recorded a song called “Bird” and shot a video for it. The lyrical composition attracted the attention of not only Orlova’s fans, but also Friske, because many felt that the song was dedicated to her. However, Olga Orlova herself clarified that this is not entirely true, and she will dedicate another single to Zhanna, which she will present a little later.

A strange man regularly approaches members of Zhanna Friske’s family with a proposal to freeze the star’s body and rebury it. Jeanne's frightened relatives claim that a man unknown to them appears in their field of vision every time they come to her grave. According to Natalya Friske, the stranger gave her a letter in which he voiced his proposals and threatened with dire consequences if they did not follow his recommendations.

The conflict that has arisen between the family of Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev is gaining momentum. This time, the father of the singer’s child contacted the police with a statement that he was receiving threats from Vladimir Borisovich Friske. The TV presenter also provided an audio recording in which the singer’s father’s claims and threats were voiced. Later, the artist’s sister also commented on this ambiguous situation. Natalya Friske stated that Dmitry Shepelev deliberately brought her father to such a state so that he could write down threats against himself, and later use this in court.

An unexpected scandal turned out to be the communication between sister Zhanna Friske and fans on Instagram. Hundreds of people turn to Natalya every day with words of support. Sometimes the singer’s fans ask her family questions that only they could give truthful answers to. This happened this time too, when Natalia Friske’s subscribers asked her on the microblog whether she was seeing little Plato. The star's sister immediately gave a negative answer, explaining that her nephew's father was against her communicating with the boy. The girl also added that her family failed to establish relations with Dmitry Shepelev.

Already this winter, Zhanna Friske’s parents plan to install a marble monument on her grave, which so far only has a wooden cross. The artist’s sister addressed the star’s fans on a social network and invited them to participate in creating a sketch of the monument. Many who knew and loved Jeanne responded to this request with great attention and willingly shared their thoughts. Some suggested using the image of the dogs that Friske loved so much in the monument, while others decided that angel wings would look much more appropriate. The artist’s family has not yet made a choice and continues to study proposals from interested people.

A fan of the star, Christina Rose, has been following the life and work of her beloved singer for many years, and when the whole country was shocked by the news of the death of Zhanna Friske, she was especially inspired by her story. The girl decided to write a book about her idol, which she called “Cardiogram of Life.” The creation of the artist’s fans was appreciated by Friske’s loved ones. The singer’s father admitted that when he read the book dedicated to the memory of his daughter, he cried all night. Already this fall, fans of Zhanna Friske will be able to purchase a book about her and once again remember the brightest moments of her biography.

Almost three months after the tragedy, there were people who wanted to make money from the grief of the Friske family. Messages about the sudden illness of Zhanna Friske’s sister Natalya began to appear on the Internet every now and then. The attackers announced a fundraiser for the girl’s treatment and, without a twinge of conscience, published emotional messages on behalf of Natalya herself. Quite soon, the artist’s sister clarified the situation and warned everyone concerned that they should not believe such reports. Natasha Friske appealed to the administration of the social network VKontakte with a request to block the pages of the “clones”.

Zhanna Friske's sister Natalya published on her VKontakte page photo collages of her nephew, the son of Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev, Platon. They show the boy with his mother visiting the petting zoo and with his beloved aunt and uncle. Zhanna looks at her beloved child with eyes full of happiness and love.

On July 8, 2015, Zhanna Friske would have turned 41 years old. Friends and relatives of the untimely departed singer have been publishing her photos on their microblogs since the morning, sharing memories of her and leaving kind words addressed to her. Early in the morning, the artist’s mother Olga Vladimirovna, sister Natalya, friend Olga Orlova and common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev visited her grave.

Close attention of the media is now focused on the son of Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev. The fact that after the death of his mother the boy was in Bulgaria became clear soon after the death of Zhanna. Plato is surrounded by care - his star father is now with him, who devotes one hundred percent of his time to the boy. The family is resting in the apartment of Philip Kirkorov, who kindly provided his accommodation to the young father and two-year-old baby.

Zhanna Friske's family just has to pay for her treatment in the USA. The account for 106 thousand dollars has not yet been closed, and the clinic in Miami, where Zhanna took the course, persistently sends financial documents to the address of the Friske family. Zhanna’s father, Vladimir Borisovich, spoke on REN-TV about why this is happening.

Less than a month has passed since the death of Zhanna Friske, and a new scandal related to the personality of the star is already breaking out online. A series of programs dedicated to discussing the circumstances of her death gave rise to a whole wave of discussions, disputes and very unexpected conclusions. Outrage was caused by the harsh position of Zhanna’s father, expressed in the “Live” program. Later, the conflict developed with the participation of Joseph Kobzon and representatives of the popular public page VKontakte.

StarHit learned that Plato now lives in the apartments of Philip Kirkorov in Bulgaria. “Philip had long suggested that Zhanna take the child there to rest. Thank him very much for this! – the singer’s father Vladimir Borisovich shared with StarHit. “Now Platon lives in Kirkorov’s apartment, he is very comfortable there...” Next to the baby is now a nanny and grandmother - Dmitry’s mother Natalya Alexandrovna. “I also lived with him in Bulgaria, but now I’m back in Minsk, working,” Shepelev’s dad Andrey Viktorovich tells StarHit. - The plateau is growing. We have not yet told him that his mother has passed away. And he himself is still small, he doesn’t ask. He likes the sea, he loves to swim and run on the sand. He tinkers with spatulas and buckets, plays with cars, learns to swim. Dima will talk to him himself later. He comes often. Now in Moscow for work, but soon he will return to his son again... Platosha will stay in Bulgaria until the end of the summer. And in September, Dima is thinking about sending him to kindergarten in Moscow, it’s time for him to socialize, communicate with other children, and learn little by little.”

Zhanna Friske's father appeared on another television show to talk about how the family was coping with the tragedy and what was happening between them and Dmitry Shepelev. Vladimir Borisovich admitted that it is very difficult for his wife at the moment and she still cannot recover from grief. According to the man, Olga Vladimirovna leaves the house only to go to her daughter’s grave; she tries to avoid communicating with people. It’s interesting that Vladimir Friske was reluctant to talk about his son-in-law. Having dropped a couple of careless phrases that everything was not all right between them, he refused to explain the essence of the conflict in more detail. Zhanna Friske's father made it clear that he has something to reproach Dmitry Shepelev for, and there are a lot of things that he cannot forgive him.

It became known that, having only stayed briefly in Moscow after the funeral of Zhanna Friske, Dmitry Shepelev flew to his son in Bulgaria. At the reception of the Emerald Beach Resort and Spa, located in the resort town of Ravda, Shepelev was accidentally met by producer Evgeny Fridlyand, who also flew to the Black Sea coast with his family. “Dima is holding up well! – he said on one of the social networks. - And Plato, my son, is such a good one - a chubby hero.... And he holds his hand. Doesn’t let go even one step...” Fridlyand also said that Shepelev fundamentally does not read the Internet and does not watch TV.

The last three days passed in a tragic tone - we said goodbye to the singer Zhanna Friske, whose death became a real personal tragedy not only for her family and friends, but also for her fans. They say that time heals... But the main thing that remains for those who have become in this world is the memory of the departed. “StarHit” together with you recalls the most striking creative works of Zhanna Friske: clips, performances, filming for television, films and videos that create the most complete and accurate picture of this amazing person. We are confident that everyone who knew and loved Jeanne will remember her exactly as the camera once captured her.

For two years, during which Zhanna Friske struggled with a terrible disease, her family and, above all, her mother Olga Vladimirovna Kopylova were next to her. She helped her daughter with little Plato, looked after her when Zhanna was sick, and rejoiced with other close people when the singer felt better after an experimental vaccine. Unlike father Vladimir Borisovich Friske, who commented on the condition of his star daughter, acted for television and was generally a public figure, Zhanna Friske’s mother was always in the shadows, protecting her daughter’s peace.

After the funeral service, the coffin with the singer’s body was transported from the Yelokhovsky Cathedral to the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery, where Zhanna Friske will find her final refuge. Already at noon, her relatives and close people gathered at the star’s grave, and security also concentrated on the site. Zhanna Friske’s best friend and godmother to her two-year-old son Platon, Olga Orlova, addressed the audience with a speech in which she thanked everyone for their presence, participation and attention to what happened. Orlova also expressed gratitude to Friske’s friends for the fact that for almost two years that she was struggling with a serious illness, they supported her and believed in the best.

Among those present were the star's best friend Olga Orlova, Philip Kirkorov, Sergei Zverev, Sergei Lazarev, Lera Kudryavtseva, Alexander Peskov, Svetlana Surganova and others. Her many fans also came to see off their beloved singer on her final journey. Hundreds of people from all over the country arrived that morning at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery in incredible numbers. Saying goodbye to Zhanna Friske was not easy for everyone present at the funeral

Singer Zhanna Friske is being buried in the very church where she was once baptized. The star’s body was delivered to the Yelokhovsky Cathedral in Moscow after a civil funeral service on the evening of June 17. Friske spent the whole night in the temple. In the morning, relatives arrived at the scene, first of all, the common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev, who flew to Moscow last night. “The ceremony will not be closed,” representatives of the artist’s relatives told StarHit. “Those who did not have time to say goodbye to Zhannochka can come to the morning liturgy at 8 am, and then stay for the funeral service.” At about 10 o'clock in the morning the ceremony will end, and the funeral cortege will head to the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye cemetery.

Zhanna Friske's common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev gave an interview to the Super.ru portal. In it, he said in particular: “Today a farewell ceremony is taking place for Jeanne’s fans, so that everyone who loves this person and loves her songs can see her again, because they haven’t seen her for two years. Tomorrow is the most important day for the family and for me: liturgy, funeral service, funeral. I’m flying to Moscow tonight and that means that tomorrow we’ll be together again.”

On June 17, a funeral ceremony for Zhanna Friske took place at the Crocus City Hall concert hall. The first to arrive at the funeral service were Zhanna Friske's parents and her sister Natalya. They were the ones who accompanied the hearse with the singer’s body. Everyone who attended the farewell ceremony could not hold back their tears - those who knew the singer well personally, and those who simply admired her and prayed for her health, cried when the whole country was shocked by the news of her terrible diagnosis. The civil memorial service for Zhanna Friske was attended today by her colleagues from the workshop - those with whom she had many years of friendship and common creative projects. Igor Nikolaev, Dmitry Malikov and his wife, Natasha Koroleva, Sergey Lazarev, Katya Lel, Alexander Ovechkin, Mitya Fomin, Emin Agalarov, Angelika Agurbash and many others came to say goodbye to Zhanna.

Zhanna Friske and Olga Orlova: the story of true female friendship

Our colleagues from Marie Claire have prepared material about the relationship between Zhanna Friske and her friend and colleague in the group “Brilliant” Olga Orlova. They spent half their lives literally side by side, only occasionally being separated for a short time. In 2014, they celebrated the anniversary of their friendship. Zhanna Friske and Olga Orlova knew how to be friends. Time heals, grief and despair from the loss of your best friend will subside over time, and the great happiness of spending 20 years next to your soul mate, understanding each other perfectly and supporting in everything will remain warm memories for which you should thank fate. Read about how Orlova and Friske were able to create a unique language of communication that only they could understand, about their special world and amazing reciprocity.

At the farewell ceremony for Zhanna Friske at Crocus City Hall, many were surprised why the deceased’s common-law husband, Dmitry Shepelev, was not among the relatives. Her father and mother, sister Natalya and her husband Sergei were sitting at the coffin with Zhanna’s body, but there was no beloved man. According to Komsomolskaya Pravda, the reason is that Dmitry was unable to fly from Bulgaria on time, where he was with his parents and son Platon. It was expected that the TV presenter would be in Moscow the night before the funeral, which will take place on June 18. At the same time, Platon will remain abroad - the family decided not to traumatize the boy by participating in mourning events.

In Moscow, in the Crocus City Hall, a farewell ceremony for Zhanna Friske is taking place. Both the singer’s relatives and friends, as well as her ordinary fans, will be able to come here. From the very morning, an incredible number of people gathered at the entrance to the farewell site. The funeral ceremony is scheduled to begin at 14:00, but people began to gather much earlier. StarHit is broadcasting live from the scene. Interviews with stars and ordinary fans, people who knew and loved her closely, current photos appear in this material in real time.

New details of farewell to singer Zhanna Friske have become known. After the civil funeral service at Crocus City Hall, the singer’s body will be transported to one of the capital’s churches. According to Orthodox custom, the coffin will remain in the church all night. On Thursday morning, a funeral service will be held in the same church in the presence of Jeanne's relatives and close friends. The performer will be buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelsk cemetery. Then a wake will take place in one of the best Moscow restaurants - only close relatives of the singer are invited.

The release of Andrei Malakhov’s “Let Them Talk” program was dedicated to the memory of Zhanna. It showed the first interview with the singer’s father Vladimir Borisovich, given after the singer’s death. “We were hoping all this time. We thought there would be some kind of miracle. “I realized that miracles don’t happen,” said Vladimir Borisovich, without hiding his tears. - She gave birth in April, and fell ill two months later. I had thoughts that this was connected with her pregnancy. We were already sent to die then. Well done, she pulled through. There was a positive dynamic, she even drove once, she lost weight... When she regained consciousness, we slowly turned on her songs, she reacted and she felt better. I know she will be better off there than here. I don't know how I will live now. Only our grandson will remind us of her.” Her best friend Olga Orlova, composer Igor Krutoy, singer Valeria, singer Natasha Koroleva, stylist Vlad Lisovets and other stars also came to honor the memory of Zhanna. All of them not only shared their experiences, but also recalled bright moments associated with Zhanna Friske.

In Boris Korchevnikov’s “Live Broadcast” program, her family and friends spoke about the last days of Zhanna Friske’s life. The singer's sister Natalya gave a short interview. She said that on June 13, Zhanna lost consciousness, and spent the last two days of her life lying unconscious in bed at home. Zhanna Friske's father, Vladimir Borisovchi, also made a brief statement. “We chose the nearest cemetery - Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye. Dmitry wrote that he was leaving on the next plane, but I don’t know when he would return. Plato is now in Bulgaria. He literally left on Sunday, and on Monday Zhanna died... The boy was here for eight months, he just walked here, we wanted him to relax at sea. She was unconscious for three months. And she couldn’t say anything, she was in a coma. Her mother, sister and two friends were always with her. Dima was not there. Zhanna's departure was very difficult. The doctors could not help, what was the point of calling an ambulance earlier - there was no pulse anymore,” said the singer’s father. In addition to him, journalist Otar Kushanashvili, actress and TV presenter Elena Proklova, producer Andrei Razin and other stars had the opportunity to express their opinions on the program.

Her classmate Natalya Krechetova shared her memories of the years spent next to the star. The woman admitted that she would never forget her amazing friend and will forever remember her as bright and cheerful. In addition, Natalya stated that Zhanna Friske dreamed of a second child and sincerely believed that she had everything ahead of her. “Back in January, you dreamed of a second child and were full of hope. Sleep, my girl, you continue to live in your son,” wrote a classmate of the star. Krechetova published rare photographs of her friend on her social network page. In the photo, the open and smiling schoolgirl is easy to recognize as the people's favorite. This is exactly how Zhanna Friske was remembered by classmates, friends, colleagues and numerous fans. These shots have truly never been seen before; they are unique in their kind.

It is known that at the time of Zhanna Friske’s death, her husband and son were not with her: TV presenter Dmitry Shepelev and little Platon had flown to Bulgaria on vacation a few days earlier, where Dima’s parents, Andrei Viktorovich and Natalya Aleksandrovna Shepelev, were already waiting for them. “StarHit” contacted the TV presenter’s dad to express his condolences. "Thank you. We are holding on. It’s very difficult for all of us now,” said Andrei Shepelev. – We are now trying to fly out of Burgas together with Dima and Plato. Of course, there are problems with this, with tickets. Plato is still small. We don’t tell him yet that his mother is no more... We won’t take him to the funeral either...”

ELLE Brand Director Natalya Shkuleva spoke about the son of Zhanna Friske and Dmitry Shepelev. “On the morning of June 14, Andrey (Malakhov - editor’s note) and I were returning from Baku,” Natalya shared with StarHit. “We were waiting for our luggage at Domodedovo airport and suddenly we saw Dima Shepelev, in his hands he was holding a diaper and a bottle of water. Little Plato ran around him non-stop. A very cheerful guy with a fashionable haircut, he looks like both Zhanna and Dima at the same time. I said Hi! How are you?" Plato became shy, sat down on the floor and hugged his father’s leg. But curiosity took over, the baby began to flirt: “Peek-a-boo” - and immediately hid. Dima and I started talking, it turned out they were flying to Bulgaria. Dima held on and didn’t show it, although we knew that the situation in the family was critical.”

Soon after the death of Zhanna Friske became known, her common-law husband, TV presenter Dmitry Shepelev, commented on the death of his common-law wife Zhanna Friske. He left a touching note on his Facebook page. “We always repeated: “Happiness loves silence.” I remain true to these words, because Zhanna remains for me absolute, pure, unique happiness. We didn't give up and fought to win. They say that 2 years is a long time in such a situation. But, of course, this is very little for us. I know for sure that we could not have done it without you. I want to thank everyone: who donated money for Zhanna’s treatment, prayed for her health, simply thought about her, wished her happiness and strength. I want you to know: these two years are largely your fault. Thank you! I wish you and your loved ones health. And in the near future I would like to focus on helping those who, like us, do not give up and fight for health and life.”

The singer’s father, Vladimir Borisovich, spoke about who her son Platon will remain with after the death of Zhanna Friske, who will take on the efforts to raise him. “The child must stay with his father. If he gives it to us, allows us to educate him, we will help educate him, naturally. Where should we leave him? He won’t be left without anyone,” the man said. Let us note that, in addition, his godmother Olga Orlova takes an active part in Plato’s upbringing. At any free moment, the ex-“brilliant” tries to be close to the baby. “Platosha grew up practically in my arms, I was little with him in America, then in Latvia, we have a very close relationship,” Orlova previously said about her relationship with her named son.

Zhanna Friske was a multi-talented person: she not only sang and danced beautifully, but also, without having an acting education, achieved great success in cinema, starring in several sensational projects at once. The singer loved to try everything new and unknown: she experimented in the circus, at the skating rink and on a desert island. Participation in the project “The Last Hero” showed the audience a completely new Zhanna: her courage was surprising, and her strong position in life aroused respect. And yet, the main thing in Zhanna’s life was her family. The people closest to her were her parents, sister Natalya, common-law husband Dmitry Shepelev and son Platon.

StarHit managed to contact a neighbor of the Friske family, who lives next to their country house in the Moscow region. The man talked about what the last few months of the singer’s life were like and who her only son was with.

“Zhanna has been worse lately,” Friske’s neighbor Sergei tells StarHit. - I remember that she used to walk on her own, then she began to move with the help of her mother, leaning on her, and then she stopped going out altogether... Zhanna’s son Platon was with her parents - Volodya and Olga. There was always a nanny-assistant with the child, it was too hard for Zhanna’s parents, they tried not to show their emotions to the baby.”

Later it became known that a few days before the death of Zhanna Friske, Platon flew abroad with his father Dmitry Shepelev. Most likely, we are talking about Bulgaria: it was for a flight to this country that the family recently checked in at one of the capital’s airports. Plato has not yet been told that his mother is no more.

The shocking news about the death of Zhanna Friske appeared late at night, but the stars rushed to react to it immediately. Social networks are full of mournful comments, condolences and emotional statements. Here are just a few of them:

Philip Kirkorov:“Goodbye, beloved Zhanna... Farewell, friend... True friend... I’m crying... It’s impossible to believe... It’s cruel...”

Lera Kudryavtseva:“My beloved girl... Farewell, my beautiful, kind, gentle friend. You are forever the sunshine in my heart. I can’t believe it, why????????? I'm crying".

Olga Orlova:“Farewell, my girl... Sleep well... You will forever remain in my heart...”

Many people remember well how on July 8, 2014, the singer was photographed by paparazzi celebrating her birthday in Jurmala. The artist then turned 40 years old, and, as you know, many people prefer not to organize celebrations or celebrate this date out of superstition, but for the star it was very important in such a difficult period to gather loved ones at one table and spend time with them. “StarHit” contacted the famous psychic Daria Mironova to find out how the last days of Zhanna’s life went and what Mironova herself associates with the singer’s departure. As it turned out, the participant in the “Battle of Psychics” is inclined to believe that Zhanna Friske, without knowing it, has brought the day of her death closer.

As it turned out, shortly before the death of Zhanna Friske, her sister Natalya received a long-awaited gift from her mother-in-law - a hand-beaded icon of St. Matrona. Natalya shared the news that she received this gift on her VKontakte page on the day her sister passed away. This icon was presented to Jeanne's closest relative so that she could pray for her health and well-being.

Projects of the publishing house Hearst Shkulev Media mourn the loss of Zhanna Friske and remember who she was: cheerful, kind, open and very optimistic. Zhanna infected everyone around her with her energy, and there was not a person in the world who would treat her without sympathy. Our selection contains the most striking episodes from Friske’s interview, her photographs and quotes that reveal the character and very essence of this amazing woman. Here are her confessions about how she relates to the people around her, in Marie Claire magazine: “Very often I endow a person with many different qualities, and then I am very, very disappointed... In general, I don’t like to judge people, but I can learn from them really like. Sit, listen, mouth open, absorb like a sponge.” And piercing words about God: “I pray to YOU. “I used to just repeat these words to myself, but now I feel every letter,” said for StarHit magazine, and wonderful photos from the ELLE collection.

Having confirmed the information about the death of singer Zhanna Friske, her relatives announced that she would find her last refuge in Moscow. Initially, it was not clear in which cemetery and when the singer would be buried. Later it became known that we were talking about the Nikolo-Arkhangelsk cemetery. Commenting on what happened, close stars were stingy with words. “Unfortunately, Zhannochka is no longer with us,” said her father Vladimir Borisovich. “She passed away in Moscow. It’s very hard for me,” said friend, singer and ex-soloist of “Brilliant” Olga Orlova.

On April 7, 2013, Zhanna Friske gave birth to a son, Plato. On June 7 of the same year, Zhanna's father learned that the singer had a brain tumor. It all started when Zhanna began to complain of headaches. And when I was in Miami, I went swimming and didn’t return for a long time. Then it turned out that she had confused heaven and earth. Zhanna often went to bed and darkened the rooms with curtains. And there was a case when she tried to put Plato to sleep, holding him upside down.

Zhanna fainted. The worst thing is that at these moments, according to Vladimir, she was “severely crippled,” and the doctors feared that she would break her spine. Therefore, Zhanna began to be tied up.

In New York they found a very expensive medicine that helped Zhanna. So much so that her tumor began to disintegrate. As Friske explained, it was impossible to get rid of the tumor surgically - it was too far away and there was a risk that after the operation Zhanna would “become a vegetable,” as Vladimir put it. The same drug had a miraculous effect on the singer.

Vladimir advised Dmitry Shepelev to consolidate his success and invite the director of the Institute of Virology to help, but the TV presenter refused. And two months later Zhanna began to relapse. Friske said that when her daughter could no longer speak, she was asked who to leave Plato with. And Zhanna chose her friend Olga Orlova.

According to Friske, at the end of her life Zhanna realized what kind of person Dmitry Shepelev was. When he came (and, as Vladimir said, in two years the presenter was with her for 56-60 days), Zhanna turned away, her pulse even quickened.

Friske’s friend Alena Premudroff also appeared in the studio of the show “Secret for a Million”. She stated that Zhanna suffered from headaches long before pregnancy. And she even fainted. She advised her to visit a doctor, but she did not listen to her.

After giving birth, when the disease progressed, Zhanna, according to her friend, became simply unbearable. According to Alena, it was impossible to communicate with the singer; they often quarreled, and over trifles. Vladimir Friske admitted that his wife’s parents and older sister died of cancer.

In June 2015, the public was shocked by the news of the death of the bright star of Russian show business, Zhanna Friske. Of course, many understood that the terrible disease left no chance for the singer, but people still had hope. It was difficult not to hope, given that Zhanna miraculously managed to win two whole years from death, instead of the couple of months predicted by the doctors.

But people who knew Friske closely were convinced that this happens to really strong people, like the artist. The support of loved ones and relatives played a big role. And the death of Zhanna Friske and her last photographs before her death shocked everyone.

After Zhanna’s death, on social networks and in interviews with major publications, many stars decided to talk about what a bright and hopeful person Zhanna was. First of all, after the tragedy, her close friends responded, among them Lolita, who admitted that Zhanna dreamed of a second child. Glucose, who could not believe that Zhanna was no more, also expressed her condolences.

There were also comments from former members of the group “Brilliant”, Zhanna’s stage colleagues. Yulia Kovalchuk admitted that she would miss Zhanna and, as Yulia is convinced, she would not want to see how sad everyone is. Of course, it could not have happened without the support of Olga Orlova, Zhanna’s friend, who devoted a lot of time to her loved one, spending the last days of the artist nearby. According to media reports, Olga was with the singer and her family in her apartment on the day Zhanna died. The news about Zhanna Friske, her illness and her last photos before her death spread all over the Internet.

The artist’s common-law husband was in Bulgaria at the moment when Zhanna died. People did not condemn him. The decision to go to Bulgaria with the son of Dmitry and Zhanna Platon was made by the singer’s relatives at a family council. The boy was two years old at that time, of course, the death of his mother and the fuss that arose because of the journalists would have been a big blow for the child.

To preserve the baby’s psyche, the father took him away from Moscow. By that time, Zhanna had been in a coma for a long time. To blame Dmitry for being far away on the day of his wife’s death is naturally stupid.

One only has to think about how hard it was for Jeanne’s family and friends, including her lover. Not everyone can watch the life of a loved one fade away. Shepelev himself, in an interview with a major publication, admitted that from the moment Zhanna was diagnosed, he and his wife did not make plans for the future, did not start talking about the upcoming summer, about vacations and recreation and travel. We talked about the present moment, lived as if there was no tomorrow.

Shepelev admitted that the entire time of Friske’s illness was stressful for her relatives; they had a huge responsibility. All the time I had to make decisions that influenced Zhanna’s life, putting her fate and future on the line. In particular, Dmitry said that he was always looking for ways to treat his wife. The artist’s husband corresponded, traveled around the world, met with the best doctors in the world, and consulted with professionals in order to save his loved one. There were people who raised the issue that the Friske family chose a clinic for Zhanna in America and not in Russia. But not everyone understands that the choice was not between two countries, but between faith in something or someone.

But the hospital in America was not the only institution where treatment took place. There were several medical institutions, and they were located in different countries.

Western clinics helped in many ways to stop the development of the disease and its impact on the woman’s life, but they failed to cure Friske. The story of Zhanna Friske and the last photographs before her death came as a shock to the public.

When Zhanna was not receiving treatment, she was able to spend time with her family. Shepelev shared the news with the artist’s fans that their family was having a great time, swimming, enjoying delicious food, and walking together. The fact that the couple and their son could simply hold hands was a huge victory and a step forward, not back.

Shepelev about the death of his wife

After Zhanna’s death, Dmitry decided to write a message of gratitude to Friske’s fans and those who care. The support of strangers was palpable all the time. He admitted to the men that for them happiness was that feeling that loved silence. And after Friske’s death, the woman remains pure and the most unforgettable happiness that was in his life.

Dmitry thanked everyone who helped the Friske family raise money for treatment, donated money, prayed for the singer’s health, and wished her strength and happiness. The man is convinced that the support played a huge role in the fact that Zhanna managed to live for two years from the moment of diagnosis, which the doctors could not believe. Naturally, two years is a long time for a terrible disease, but at the same time so little for the people who loved Jeanne. Zhanna Friske and her last concerts and photographs before her death were remembered more by her fans.

Zhanna became a ray of light and an example of a real star, unspoiled by fame and money. And this happened no longer as part of the Belstishchie group, which brought Friska popularity. Of course, it is useless to deny the fact that Zhanna was a bright and talented singer in the group, loved by many. But the real Zhanna revealed herself after the release of the show “The Last Hero.”

An extreme program about survival in the wild with a lot of challenges revealed a different side to Friske for her fans and fans of the show. People did not think that behind the stage image of the “brilliant” one was hiding a strong and bright character and willpower. This is how people around her remembered her. Finding out that Friska passed away was difficult not only for fans of her work, but for everyone who saw a real and positive person in the woman. Everyone was concerned.

It’s hard to imagine what a woman had to go through when she finally met true love and learned the happiness of motherhood in 38 years. Everyone tried to help raise money for the treatment of the star.

Channel One decided to organize a marathon, a charity event, and managed to raise 67 million rubles. The amount was enough for Zhanna’s treatment in New York.

The remaining money was used to help sick children from low-income families. Dmitry and Zhanna created their own charitable foundation, its work continues in our time.

Dmitry said that he was not going to close the fund and would develop it for the sake of people in need of help and salvation. At the end of the marathon from “First”, Zhanna also addressed the people, thanking the people who showed mercy. “Calm. Hope,” the artist wrote. Zhanna Friske, her last words and photographs before her death will forever remain in people's memory.

Jeanne's last love

Friska's popularity came after the success of the group "Brilliant", which appeared towards the end of the 90s. The press did not miss the opportunity to write articles and hot news about the personal lives of the members of the girl group. While many people wrote that girls look for boyfriends based on the size of their wallet, Zhanna was singled out as a woman who chooses boyfriends based on their appearance.

The tabloids wrote about Friske's romances with Kakha Kaladze, a famous hockey player, desirable and eligible bachelor Alexander Ovechkin, as well as Vitaly Novikov. News about new fans and the woman’s likings did not leave the front pages of publications.

But the news was not the most pleasant. Almost every romance ended in separation and quarrels. Zhanna's fans were waiting for the news that the artist was getting married and was going to become a mother. We had to wait until 2011 for such news. The year became a turning point for Friske; Zhanna met her betrothed Dmitry Shepelev.

Zhanna, in her own words, did not lose hope of meeting the man destined for fate. At concerts, Friske told her stage colleagues that she sincerely believed in the existence of the prince. Not all people are lucky enough to meet their destiny in their youth.

Jeanne’s parents were lucky enough to meet each other in their youth and their marriage became an example for the artist, although her father did not have the simplest character, as the woman joked. Zhanna had to make a lot of mistakes and go through various difficult moments in her personal life before meeting true love. Zhanna Friske remains in the memory of millions as an attractive and smiling woman, despite the last photographs before her death that amazed fans and admirers.

Dmitry had a hard time, journalists asked annoying stupid questions: “How did Dmitry, young and successful, decide to choose a woman who is eight years older than him.” Shepelev advised “well-wishers” to mind their own business and keep their advice to themselves. For Dmitry, Zhanna became the only one. The man refused to believe in the age difference, only in real feelings.

Motherhood

Zhanna's fans were endlessly happy to learn that the woman had finally become a mother. At the age of 38, she gave birth to a boy, who was named Plato. The artist was about to leave her singing career and devote all her time and energy to her family. Unfortunately, everything did not work out the way Friska wanted.

After giving birth, Zhanna’s health worsened, but the singer blamed her weakness on fatigue, a busy schedule, and postpartum syndrome. Only later did it become clear that the cause was a terrible disease.

Shepelev, during Zhanna’s treatment, told reporters about how strong his wife turned out to be. The TV presenter admitted that he had never met such women, and it is difficult to find such strength and character among men. At a time when the artist should have been worried and in despair, accepting the support of loved ones, Zhanna was completely calm and with this calmness she helped her family and friends, her loved one. Shepelev called his wife a woman of harmony. Although he is sure that deep down Friska had a hard time mentally. It’s hard to come to terms with the fact that she has no future and won’t be able to be with her son as he grows up.

Her old friend, journalist Otar Kushanashvili, also wrote about the strength of this bright woman. The man was convinced that in a situation in which there was no longer any point in fighting death, life could only be maintained through willpower, love of life and a thirst to be close to loved ones. When Otar saw the son of Dmitry and Zhanna, he had no questions left. Everything became clear where the woman got the strength and courage to resist the terrible disease.

Much to the regret of many, even a sensitive and loving woman like Zhanna did not have enough strength to live even longer or to be miraculously healed. Human strength and energy are not limitless. Zhanna was able to live longer than anyone could have imagined, and this is already a huge victory, happiness for the Friske family, her son, who managed to feel maternal love and care. Everyone remembers what a bright and strong woman Zhanna Friske was, not taking into account her illness and the last photographs before the death of the magnificent singer.
