Vasily Kolodny and Maxim Maksakov. Life trials of Lyudmila Maksakova: support for her son and conflict with her daughter. “Knocked a man down and ran away?”

The General Prosecutor's Office of the Republic of Kazakhstan asks Russia to extradite businessman Maxim Maksakov, the brother of the ex-deputy. State Duma, opera singer Maria Maksakova. In Kazakhstan, Maxim Maksakov is suspected of major fraud and involvement in the disappearance of shares of the Kazvtorchermet company worth $10 million. In this regard, a criminal case was opened against Maksakov for forgery and theft of documents.

The scam with Kazvtorchermet (one of the largest Kazakh companies for processing scrap iron) was carried out back in 2006. “As a result, a case was opened against Maksakov for forgery and theft of documents”, says the Mash Telegram channel, clarifying that Astana is now demanding extradition Maxim Maksakova.

At the same time, Maxim Maksakov’s biography already contains one criminal story, and a rather high-profile one. It is connected with fraud with budget funds. A criminal case against Maxim Maksakov was initiated by the main department economic security and anti-corruption (GUEBiPK) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs under Art. 159 of the Criminal Code (“Fraud”). Maksakov - at that time to CEO Moscow company "PR+Sport" was accused of theft of almost 260 million budget rubles. This happened between 2009 and 2014, when the company headed by Maksakov won 8 government tenders (mainly orders from the Ministry of Sports) for more than 370 million rubles.

The missing money was intended, in particular, for information support of sports projects; according to the documents, it turned out that Maksakov regularly paid for the preparation and publication of articles on relevant topics in the media. The investigation found that previously published materials were posted on websites and in newspapers, and the journalists pointed out by Maksakov did not confirm the fact of cooperation with PR+Sport - they wrote materials on sports topics as part of their regular work duties, without suspecting , that they carry out work “to carry out the development and implementation of activities for information and propaganda support of the federal target program “Development physical culture and sports in Russian Federation for 2006–2015."

While Maxim Maksakov was in jail, reports periodically appeared in the media that Maria Maksakova, using his deputy status, is trying to put pressure on the progress of the investigation. In particular, Izvestia, citing its own sources, reported that “Maksakova, through her fellow deputies, sends parliamentary inquiries to law enforcement agencies, and also interferes in the course of the investigation with personal calls and visits.”. Maria Maksakova, in turn, sued Izvestia and lost.

Later, having already left for Ukraine, Maksakova answered the question of whether she really tried to put pressure on the investigation as follows: “No... I didn’t write any requests, I didn’t ask for anything. Mom asked Kobzon, and he wrote a request. But as a mother, I believe she has the right to protect her son by all means available to her. Article 51 of the Constitution gives her such opportunities. This did not improve Maxim’s situation in any way, he ended up serving time under house arrest, he was given credit for all this on time, and he left the courtroom. He was convicted, but he has already served his sentence.”.

The last circumstance is exactly this: “Maxim Maksakov and Vasily Kolodny (Maksakov’s accomplice) were found guilty under Part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, they were sentenced to three years in prison general regime, but due to the fact that they were under house arrest during the investigation, the court considered that they had served their sentence.”. I wonder if Maksakov’s guilt in fraud with Kazvtorchermet is proven, whether Kazakh justice will be as lenient.

The police are looking for

Maxim Maksakov - the eldest son of the People's Artist of the RSFSR Lyudmila Maksakova, brother of opera singer, ex-State Duma deputy Maria Maksakova and father Petra Maksakova- son-in-law of a famous fashion designer Valentina Yudashkina.

Brother and sister have different fathers. Maxim was born in Lyudmila Maksakova’s first marriage with the artist Lev Zbarsky; Maria Maksakova's father is a citizen of Germany Peter Andreas Igenbergs.

The name of her sister, a former soloist of the Mariinsky Theater, is much more well known: we recall that in the winter of 2016, Maria Maksakova, together with her husband, also a former deputy Denis Voronenkov, went to Ukraine. Voronenkov, who was put on the federal wanted list for fraud, was shot dead in the center of Kyiv in March 2017. The Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine named the thief in law as the main suspect in organizing the murder. Vladimir Tyurin(Tyurik) - the former common-law husband of Maria Maksakova. Tyurin has been put on the international wanted list, and the documents have been handed over to Interpol.

What is the elite of society? Of course, these are famous artists, politicians, military men and scientists. There are many in Russia famous dynasties, known all over the world. Among them are the Tolstoys, the Mikhalkovs, and now the Maksakovs.

But if the Tolstoys and Mikhalkovs were not noticed in any particular scandals, then the Maksakovs’ surname became the adornment of almost all tabloids and the point is not in their services to the Fatherland, but in the indecent behavior of some representatives of the famous family.
So, what will we remember the Maksakovs for?

Well, first of all, Maria Petrovna - opera diva, People's Artist of the USSR. It was she who became the founder of the dynasty. In 1940, her daughter Lyudmila was born. The girl's father was an artist of the Bolshoi Theater. Unfortunately, he was not interested in his child and very soon left the USSR to build his career in the West.

Lyudmila Maksakova first married the well-known artist Lev Zbarsky. It was for the sake of young Lyudochka that this socialite of all Moscow abandoned the “Red Queen”, fashion model Slava Zaitsev Regina Zbarskaya.

The son of Lyudmila Maksakova will repeat the same fate. The father will never be interested in his son and will leave Russia in the same way.

What do we know about Maxim Zbarsky (Maksakov)? Nothing, except that he actively embezzled budget funds and was convicted. It was proven that Maxim Maksakov is the organizer and participant in the theft of 260,000,000 rubles from the state budget.

Agree. not the most decent biography. Now Maxim’s son, Pyotr Maksakov, is happily married to a representative of another elite family, the Yudashkins. Let's wish them happiness.

But the most famous Maksakova is the same Maria who fled from Russia to Ukraine, where misfortunes never cease to haunt her.

Sometimes we have to regret that we did not listen to our parents in time. Still, the advice of moms and dads can be priceless, but only after becoming adults and having screwed up, we begin to understand how right they were.

A striking example of the fact that one must obey one’s mother is the odious Maria Petrovna Maksakova Jr. This amazingly unlucky woman has suffered so many misfortunes that it is generally unclear how she finds the strength to live. But Maksakova herself is to blame for all her troubles, having built up a real garden of lies, vanity, an endless search for freebies and a complete lack of love in her destiny.

There is a type of woman who, like a magnet, attracts scammers, gigolos and scoundrels of all stripes. What's to blame? Maybe some specific vibes or incorrect behavior?

I think that the main problem Maria Maksakova is her mother, Lyudmila Maksakova. A beautiful, talented, but very authoritarian and cruel lady, she wished only the best for her children, but, alas, nothing came of it. The son turned out to be dishonest, and the daughter betrayed her country.

At first Maria Maksakova lived in civil marriage with a crime boss named Tyurin and bore him two children, then she had an affair with a jeweler with Caucasian roots - Jamil Aliyev, and then a certain Denis Voronenkov appeared in her life.

It is worth noting that the relationship between mother and daughter did not work out from the very beginning. It is very difficult to endure a mother’s difficult temperament. Lyudmila Maksakova was sharply against the relationship of her only daughter with the bandit and could not stand Voronenkova. After the murder of her son-in-law in Kiev, this lady will say: “Well, thank God. What else can we do with him? Thank God that in the end the person who was so mean... He’s a military man, he would have been shot for treason long ago.” .

The misfortunes of Maria Maksakova did not end there. After the murder of Voronenkov, she does not want or cannot return to Russia, where her children live and grow up, her relationship with her mother is ruined forever and her personal life is bursting at all the seams.
Just recently, news was published that she secretly married a young Caucasian man, who took away her Moscow apartment on Frunzenskaya Embankment, and just yesterday unknown people burst into her Kiev apartment and asked her to leave the living space she occupied with her child within 24 hours.

What else could happen in the life of Maria Maksakova to finally finish her off? What's to blame? Her boundless gullibility, as she herself claims, or her craving for shady personalities like Tyurin and Voronenkov?

Pyotr Maksakov was born on January 5, 1990 in Moscow. Him with early childhood I had to get used to the constant attention to him star family who deserves special attention. Peter's relatives - public people: diplomats, artists, politicians.

His grandmother - famous actress, deserved and People's Artist Russia Lyudmila Maksakova. Aunt - Maria Maksakova-Igenbergs - opera singer and politician. She was a State Duma deputy and was a member of the Culture Committee. Peter's father, Maxim, was involved in advertising.

Nothing is known about the mother, except that she gave her husband three children: Peter, Anna and Vasilisa. On his mother's side, Peter is related to Anatoly Dobrynin - his great-grandfather was a Soviet diplomat and the USSR Ambassador to the USA. Peter himself is a personality almost unknown to the general public. Despite the widespread opinion that representatives of the “golden youth” are great snobs, Pyotr Maksakov is quite democratic.

Peter spent his childhood in his grandmother’s house, which is located on Bryusov Lane in Moscow. The nanny took him for a walk to the playground near the Church of the Ascension. It is noteworthy that Galya Yudashkina and her teacher also walked here. It was the Church of the Ascension that opened its doors to representatives first of the Soviet elite, and then to the elite of the new state. Therefore, with early age Peter saw a lot of famous people.

At the age of 7, Peter became a student at secondary school No. 20, but soon the boy’s parents decided that their son should receive a better and more comprehensive education. So Peter entered the Oundle private school in the UK. After school, Pyotr Maksakov became a student at Durham University, where he majored in psychology. Returning to Russia, he entered MGIMO and received an MBA degree.

Together with Ilan Shor, the husband of the popular singer Jasmine, Pyotr Maksakov created and began promoting the Kremlevskaya Vodka brand. Maksakov also owns the Smith company, which develops startup concepts. In addition, Petr Maksakov is a full-time business consultant at the Valentin Yudashkin Fashion House.

As for his personal life, for some time Pyotr Maksakov met with Tatiana Mamiashvili, the daughter of the President of the Russian Wrestling Federation, Mikhail Mamiashvili. However, this romance was fleeting and did not have time to develop into something serious.

In the winter of 2014, Pyotr Maksakov began courting Galina Yudashkina, the daughter of the famous fashion designer Valentin Yudashkin. The lovers got married on June 5, 2015, and on June 7 they arranged magnificent wedding in Moscow. In 2016, Peter and Galina became parents - they had long-awaited son Anatoly.

Pyotr Maksakov became famous for his marriage. Children famous names they started a family - of course, such an event could not but excite the public. As Valentin Yudashkin said: “the guys did not need to play such a magnificent wedding. But they both understand that they are representatives of public families, they grew up in an atmosphere of constant interest in their lives and calmly reacted to everything that happened.”

Sports of higher development

As Kommersant learned, it is flaring up loud scandal related to the theft of budget funds allocated for the popularization of sports and promotion of a healthy lifestyle in the media. At its center was the partner of the Russian Ministry of Sports, PR+Sport LLC. According to law enforcement agencies, this company annually received tens of millions of rubles for allegedly organizing stories on television and publications in newspapers. At the same time, the journalists themselves had no idea that businessmen were earning millions from their work.

So far, the winners of competitions held by the Ministry of Sports for the development of budget funds within the framework of the federal target program “Development of Physical Culture and Sports in the Russian Federation for 2006-2015” have come under the suspicion of the Main Directorate of Economic Security and Anti-Corruption of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Every year, the ministry allocates about 80 million rubles to promote sports and a healthy lifestyle on television and in print media.

According to law enforcement agencies, starting from 2009, the winners of the relevant competitions were companies affiliated with entrepreneur Maxim Maksakov, son famous actress Lyudmila Maksakova [and brother of a State Duma deputy Maria Maksakova- approx. K.ru]. To win the auctions, the alleged scammers acted in a very primitive way. In particular, to participate in the auction they nominated three or four companies registered in the name of their friends, acquaintances or relatives, one of which became the winner.

The last company to win a competition organized by the Ministry of Sports in 2012 was the company PR+Sport LLC, whose general director is Maxim Maksakov. According to investigators, he was also its only employee (not counting the founder of the company, Vasily Kolodny and his sister Ekaterina). As police representatives say, the company did not even have an office, and all the company’s accounting documentation was stored in country house friend of Mr. Kolodny.

According to the contract concluded with the Ministry of Sports, the company headed by Mr. Maksakov, using money allocated from the budget, was supposed to prepare materials for the media promoting sports and healthy image life. However, according to representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the main activity of PR+Sport LLC, except for the press conferences they hold with the participation of the Minister of Sports Vitaly Mutko, was reduced to monitoring print media and TV channels "Russia" and "Russia 2". From there, suitable publications and stories were taken, which were filed with reports on the work done that were sent to the Ministry of Sports. At the same time, the journalists themselves did not even suspect that businessmen were making millions from their work. By the way, last year PR+Sport LLC used an article from Kommersant to report on its activities. It became one of the episodes of a criminal case initiated in September of this year by the Main Investigation Department of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for Moscow under Part 4 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (fraud on an especially large scale). To establish what publications the suspects used as cover, law enforcement agencies I had to send requests to almost a dozen newspapers. In the meantime, Mr. Maksakov, who, at the request of the investigation, was placed under house arrest by the Tverskoy Court of Moscow, is accused of several episodes using materials from the VGTRK broadcasting company. According to Kommersant, the case involves about 50 videos, for which about 13 million rubles were written off. However, according to law enforcement agencies, we will most likely be talking about the annual theft of at least 60 million rubles. The investigation believes that Mr. Maksakov’s company spent another 20 million rubles on salaries and organizational expenses. Moreover, payments to hired workers were delayed for several months - this is evidenced by numerous entries on the Orabot.net website.

The Ministry of Sports yesterday made it clear to Kommersant that they are familiar with the problems that have arisen at PR+Sport LLC, but at the same time stated that they are not yet ready to comment on the current situation. In turn, co-owner of the LLC Ekaterina Kolodnaya told Kommersant that she would be able to comment only in a few days, when she coordinates her position with her lawyer.

Law enforcement agencies have yet to sort out the relationship between officials and businessmen, so they have no complaints against the employees of the Ministry of Sports yet.

["Izvestia", 10/02/2013, "Partner of the Ministry of Sports spent 50 million on promoting physical education": The company "PR+Sport", whose office is located in 1st Derbenevsky Lane, found itself in the center of attention of operatives of the Main Directorate of Economic Security and Anti-Corruption ( GUEBiPK) Ministry of Internal Affairs.

One of the last large orders - for more than 90 million rubles - provided for “work on the development and implementation of activities for information and propaganda support of the federal target program “Development of physical culture and sports in the Russian Federation for 2006–2015.”
“PR+Sport” also worked for other government departments. So, in 2012, the company won a competition for 30 million rubles, which was held by Rostourism.

One of the heads of the company’s division, asking not to mention his name, said that literally until the end of summer, a team of more than 60 people worked at the PR+ Sport company. However, at the beginning of 2013, employees stopped being paid, and about a month ago the office was completely locked. According to him, management owed employees salaries, vacation pay and compensation totaling 30 million rubles. [...]
PR+Sport employees also said that Maxim Maksakov was closely acquainted with the Minister of Sports Vitaly Mutko, because his mother Lyudmila was friends with the official’s wife Tatyana. Maksakov’s colleagues believe that his troubles are related to some disagreements with the minister’s family.

Former State Duma deputy Maria Maksakova now even those who are not interested in opera or politics know it by sight.

A young, attractive woman, a mother of three children, celebrating her 40th birthday today, is popular on the Internet in a way that she was not popular during the years of her singing and theater career and during the period of “serving time” in a building on Okhotny Ryad. The reason for this is her flight to Ukraine with her husband Denis Voronenkov, then And as a consequence of all this - a real tragic farce. Literally - dancing on bones.

Masha changes her hairstyle. Sings. Sits on the splits. Wears furs in summer. Taking pictures with Saakashvili. Now any step of Maksakova, captured by the paparazzi, is discussed as greatest event century. The unexpected “resurrection” of the late husband, who was allegedly “seen alive and well in Israel,” added to the noise.

Yes, now Maria Petrovna Jr. needs to somehow survive in a foreign land. You have to be more sophisticated. Even my mother won’t help here - it seems that the prima of the Vakhtangov Theater Lyudmila Maksakova no longer has any relationship with her daughter.

It's amazing that women's destinies All three Maksakovs are not easy. Despite their outward prosperity, even wealth, family happiness did not come easily to them. They suffered and tossed about. They married the “wrong” men. They did stupid things. I couldn’t make a single one the first time cozy nest. So that - once and for all. But, what is even more curious, the fate of each lady included foreign husbands (and associated problems) and second citizenship. They could not do without politics and accusations of betrayal of their homeland, which made their life even more difficult...

“Where is my Carmen?”

Maria Petrovna Sr. Three-time winner of the Stalin Prize, prima of the Bolshoi Theater, performer of Russian romances.

It seems her life was meant to be full. And fate began to test the future star in childhood.

The girl was born into a prosperous family. But my father is an employee of the Volga Shipping Company Petr Sidorov— died early, and at the age of eight the eldest Marusya had to go earn money. She was paid a ruble a month for singing in a church choir. At the age of 17, Maria was already enrolled in the troupe of the Astrakhan Opera Theater.

And in the summer of 1919, a native of Austria, a famous baritone and opera entrepreneur, came to the city on tour. Maximilian Maksakov. He became the new manager of the troupe and immediately entrusted Masha Sidorova with several interesting roles. At the same time, he noted that, although she has talent and a voice, the girl cannot sing at all. She asked Maximilian Karlovich to work out with her - he had no time for her. Maria went to the Petrograd Conservatory. However, having learned from Professor Glazunov, who has a lyric soprano, hurried to return to Astrakhan.

Maria Petrovna herself later recalled that upon returning to her homeland, she very soon became not only Maksakov’s student, but also his wife. However, the early marriage of Marusya Sidorova gave rise to many legends that would then accompany her for the rest of her life. They even said that Maximilian connected his life with a simple poor girl at the request of his dying wife. Who knows? Maria was 18 years old at that time, he was 50.

Maksakova’s granddaughter, her full namesake, would later say: her grandmother wanted to become a singer so much that only Maximilian could help her. He will take her to Moscow, they will live for 16 years. And until the end of her days, Maria Petrovna will call him best husband and human.

She will devote almost 30 years to the Bolshoi Theater and become the voice of this stage. And wherein long years will live in fear and not sleep at night. Shudder at every rustle outside the window. Wait for the “black funnel” to come for her sooner or later.

The singer’s daughter Lyudmila Maksakova recalled: Maria Petrovna and Maximilian Karlovich were building a cooperative in Bryusov Lane, and one day the singer needed her husband’s passport. Having opened his document for the first time, she almost fainted: it turns out that her beloved is a citizen of Austria, and his last name is not Maksakov at all (it was just a pseudonym), but Schwartz. 1930s. There are enemies of the people and spies all around. Arrests, denunciations. She immediately closed the curtains and burned her passport in a frying pan. From then on, fear settled in her heart. And in 1936, my husband died.

After enduring a year of mourning, Maria Maksakova decided on a new relationship. On tour in Warsaw she met the USSR Ambassador to Poland and the founder foreign intelligence Yakov Davtyan. But this relationship was not destined to be either long or happy. They lived only six months. Davtyan was shot, and she, as the wife of an enemy of the people, faced deportation. If not Stalin. It is known that he was a big theater lover, often went to the opera, and knew Maksakova. “Where is my Carmen?” the leader suddenly asked. And the singer was immediately taken to the Kremlin.

Is it any wonder that when 38-year-old Maria Maksakova gave birth to her long-awaited daughter in 1940, rumors immediately spread throughout Moscow that the girl’s father was “the father of all times and peoples.” Nobody knew what it really was like. Later Lyudmila Vasilievna will tell you that her mother gave birth to Bolshoi Theater soloist Alexander Volkov. But he did not want to recognize his daughter and during World War II he fled to the USA, automatically becoming an enemy of the people.

So, if Maria Petrovna had not erased Volkov from her life, Lyudmila would have faced the fate of the daughter of a traitor to her homeland. Maksakova Sr. could not allow this. And she wrote down her daughter as “Lyudmila Vasilievna.” The future prima of the Vakhtangov Theater received her middle name from a family friend Vasily Novikova- employee of the State Security Service. They say that it was he who helped Maria Petrovna and little Lyusya evacuate to Astrakhan during the war.

Then the singer had to work and raise a child. Just live peacefully. There was no great personal happiness, however. And three Stalin Prizes first degree could hardly help in its possession. And in 1953 she suffered a terrible blow in her career. The Bolshoi Theater unexpectedly sent the youthful, still in good shape singer into retirement.

Maksakova was 51 years old. But even at this young age she was able to start new life. What it cost her is a separate topic. She came to the folk orchestra named after. Osipova, began to perform Russian songs and romances. And the country applauded her again. But in order to feed herself and her daughter, Maria Petrovna was forced to earn extra money by teaching students. Her daughter hardly saw her. Mother kept Lucy under a tight rein and never had a heart-to-heart talk with her. But the main lesson that Lyudmila Vasilievna received from Maria Petrovna: you have to work. And I tried to follow him.

“Knocked a man down and ran away?”

Strictness in education and restrictions in entertainment led to the opposite result in the life of young Lyudmila Maksakova. Having entered drama school, contrary to her mother’s advice, to become a translator and graduate from a foreign language, the aspiring actress began experimenting with her appearance. She dyed her hair and was fond of bright makeup. The taste of freedom was sweet. Lyudmila had little interest in studying. Student parties were much more attractive. It’s no wonder that the beauty quickly got married. For her sake artist Zbarsky He even left his fashion model wife.

Lev and Lyudmila were young, loved each other and their friends. There were always guests in the house. The actress went grocery shopping, cooked, and washed dishes. At the same time, the artist demanded that she take care of herself, and he himself was jealous and often started scandals. None of them wanted to register officially.

As Lyudmila Vasilievna later said, the talented artist never had 15 rubles for a stamp in his passport. And she always had a lot of work.

At the age of 29, Lyudmila became pregnant. It was hard to carry Maxim. And when he was born, Leo had to adopt him. He gave the boy his middle name and last name. However, the relationship with Lyudmila very soon faded away. She returned to her mother, Lev decided to emigrate to America.

My mother's mistakes taught me nothing. Fate would have it that Lyudmila studied at own experience. And the life of the son of an emigrant in the Soviet Union would hardly have been happy. Most likely, he would not have been accepted into a decent institute, would not have been accepted for Good work. Abroad would certainly be closed to him. This is how Lyudmila Maksakova reasoned before going to the registry office and... submitting documents for the de-adoption of Maxim Zbarsky. She rewrote her son's name. Lev left safely and did not have to pay alimony for 15 years in advance before leaving, as required by Soviet law. He simply didn't have that kind of money. Lev Zbarsky never even called his son. Not long ago the artist passed away.

With a small child in her arms, Lyudmila continued her search for personal happiness. But the second bright novel was also overshadowed by tragedy.

WITH Mikael Tariverdiev Lyudmila Maksakova met at the Akter sanatorium. Handsome, impressive, dressed to the nines, the owner of water skis and a Volga with a deer on the hood, the composer immediately made an impression on the actress. Both were free and ready for new romantic relationships. They only lasted three years. The beautiful fairy tale ended with a car accident in which a young stranger was injured. The young man ran across Leningradsky Prospekt near the Sovetskaya Hotel - a girl was waiting for him on the other side - and found himself under the wheels of Tariverdiev’s car.

The story that happened to the composer and actress became the basis for the film script Eldara Ryazanova"Station for two." They talked a lot about her in those years. But how it really happened, Lyudmila Maksakova and the widow Mikaela Tariverdieva tell differently.

The widow says that Lyudmila was driving, and Mikael, like a decent noble man, took the blame upon himself. The actress assures that there were a lot of witnesses - Tariverdiev himself drove the car. As Lyudmila Vasilievna said, the worst thing that night was that Mikael did not stop, but even increased speed. Apparently there was a shock. And only when some military man caught up with them and shouted: “What, you bastard, knocked down a man and ran away?!”, Tariverdiev turned around and drove to the crime scene. The composer had famous lawyer, the sentence was given a suspended sentence. However, that story ruined Tariverdiev’s life. Having suffered several heart attacks, he died quite early.

German citizen, Latvian Peter Paul Andreas Igenbergs, whose ancestors once left Tsarist Russia, became the first and only legal husband of Lyudmila Maksakova. A physicist and businessman, Peter worked in Moscow. According to one version, they met by chance, at the entrance. And there the man proposed to the actress. According to another version, they finally met in the apartment - at a party on the occasion of Maksakova’s conferment of the title of “honored”. However, this just doesn’t matter.

For a year and a half, Peter and Lyudmila looked closely at each other. Although, maybe she was looking closely. And he was so persistent from the very beginning that he was ready to run to the registry office almost the next day. As a result, he “starved out.” And when they submitted an application to Griboedovsky, they began to get on their nerves and demand the most incredible certificates about relatives up to the seventh generation.

Finally, Peter and Lyudmila signed. Although in 1974, marriage with a foreigner was considered almost a betrayal of the homeland. And her colleagues reacted differently to her marriage. Only a few found the strength to sincerely rejoice. Mostly, they were jealous. And many simply stopped communicating with her. For the upcoming tour to Greece, her name was not on the list. She became restricted from traveling abroad. They stopped inviting her to filming and photo tests. My husband had problems getting in and out. Once, when Maria Petrovna Maksakova was dying, they did not want to let him into the Union, and Lyudmila Vasilievna called Gromyko’s assistant. If my husband is not given a visa, I will throw myself out of the window,” she shouted into the phone. And Peter managed to say goodbye to his mother-in-law.

Only in this marriage, Lyudmila Maksakova later admitted, did she feel truly happy. Only with Peter did I understand what it means to be “like behind a stone wall.” He raised Maxim as his own son, although " good people“Of course, they told the truth. And on July 24, 1977, in Munich, the couple had a daughter, who was named in honor of Maria Petrovna.

Like Lyudmila Vasilievna once upon a time, as a teenager Maria also began to wear makeup madly, rebelled, and was offended by her mother. Once she even tried to open her veins. Lyudmila Maksakova herself spoke about this in frank interview. But she seemed to be “justifying herself”: most likely, it was only a desire to prove that she was right, to scare her mother.

“My husband Vladimir Anatolyevich is a respectable businessman with experience family life, 19 years older than me,” said in an interview with a glossy magazine, who, like her grandmother, opera singer, Maria Maksakova.

Having seen her on TV, Tyurin immediately fell in love and began to wait for Maria in the Hermitage garden. And he was probably as assertive as Maria’s future father had once been towards her mother.

Unfortunately, there are no other similarities. “His life was ready for my appearance in it: the finished frame was waiting for its gem,” Maria Maksakova expressed herself floridly in the same interview. “He offered me literally everything at once: his feelings, his home, having children... Very soon I also fell in love with him...”

Apparently he offered everything but the truth. On the Internet you can find information about Vladimir Anatolyevich Tyurin, born in 1958. He graduated from the Gnessin Music College... He has several criminal records and the nickname “Tyurik”.

The Main Directorate for Combating Organized Crime of the Ministry of Internal Affairs several years ago gave an operational report: “Tyurin is a thief in law and the leader of the Bratskaya organized crime group.”

A few years ago in some media Tyurin was mentioned as common law husband Maria Maksakova. They wrote that he was the father of the singer’s two children: Ilya and Lyudmila. But in 2011, Maria became a State Duma deputy from “ United Russia”, and a denial appeared on the party website that she “has never been married and is not married now.” Despite the fact that already in 2012 Maria admitted that she was in a relationship with the son of a Baku musician - a jeweler Jamil Aliyev. It can be assumed that both unions were not officially registered. However, later Maria decided to completely disown acquaintance with Vladimir Tyurin, leaving her fans in the dark about who really is the father of her children.

On March 26, 2015, State Duma deputy from United Russia Maria Maksakova and parliamentarian from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Denis Voronenkov officially registered their relationship.

The singer admitted that having lived to the age of 37, she no longer hoped to ever meet a man with whom she would like to spend her whole life. “He’s probably the best thing that happened to me,” Maksakova said. “For the first time I feel like a fragile woman, I’m happy.”

They bought groceries in the same stores and stayed in the same hotels. And they even took fish from one merchant at the Dorogomilovsky market. But fate wanted to throw them into politics. And mix it there, in a large building on Okhotny Ryad. So that very soon they would part so tragically.

The trials began even before the wedding. In December 2014, the Moscow Department of the RF IC sent materials to the State Duma about depriving Voronenkov of parliamentary immunity. A criminal case was opened against him for the raider seizure of a building in the center of Moscow. In April 2015, a month after the wedding, Maria suffered a miscarriage due to nervousness - she lost twins. But a year later the couple had a son Ivan.

That day, an announcement appeared in the State Duma: on the occasion of the birth of the first inter-factional child, the buffet was open for free. Who composed the ditty remains a mystery:

My lips are the color of apricot, and I sing clearly.
By day I love United Russia, by night I love communists!

They remembered her to Maria Maksakova for a long time. Then it seemed to the lovers that everything would be fine. He called her “my star”, she called him “Denechka”. They believed in themselves. And in the Lord. They even got married in Jerusalem in November 2016. But this did not save them either.

Maria Maksakova and Denis Voronenkov were deprived of their deputy mandates. They fled to Ukraine. He received citizenship of this country (later Maria will say that her husband is “half Ukrainian”). And on March 23, 2017, less than two years after the wedding, the disgraced

Politics, emigration and an “unreliable” husband played a cruel joke on the third representative of the Maksakov family. For her dual citizenship (Germany and Russia) that surfaced, Maria was expelled from the party. Gnesinka and Mariinsky Theater hastened to fire her.

“Well, thank you, Lord!” Lyudmila Maksakova told reporters about the death of her son-in-law.

An emotional outburst, of course. But you won’t envy her now. Whatever Mary is, whatever she does, she is her daughter.

“Let her publicly retract her words if she wants me to talk to her,” Maria answered. And then she said that the journalists had quarreled with her mother.

“There is such a place in the Bible: the living will envy the dead...” she cried in an interview and assured that she stayed alive only to raise Vanya.

Then there will be other confessions. That Denis was the best husband in the world. That she thanked him for every day she lived. Appreciated every moment. And then, in March, she was in very, very pain. Although someone tried to see “not enough mourning” in her appearance.

At 39 years old, Maria Maksakova was left a widow with three children. What conclusions will she draw from this story? Will she be able to be happy again?
