The star of the Mirage team, Margarita Sukhankina, has long dreamed of becoming a mother, but in her youth she made many mistakes. When she realized that she could not give birth herself, she decided to take the kids from the orphanage. In 2012, three-year-old Lera and four-year-old Sergey became members of her family. Their real parents, Olga and Alexander, did not care for them: their mother suffered from alcoholism, and their father was convicted several times. Finding children cost the singer marriage: their union with Andrei Lityagin broke up.
As the editors of “Let them talk” managed to find out, after Lera and Sergey got to Sukhankina, they adopted another of their brothers. According to the singer, the third child was not given to her, besides, he had health problems. However, Olga had another boy - Cyril. In total, the woman gave birth to six children. Alcoholism undermined Olga's health, she died in the hospital from cirrhosis of the liver, and Alexander recently ended up in prison again.
Natalya Kuvykina, Kirill's grandmother, is now his guardian. They live in a small dorm room.
“The area is 24 square meters. In winter, I pay four and a half thousand rubles every month, and in summer - four thousand two hundred. My pension is eight and a half. While I am the guardian, everything is enough, ”the woman said.

Kuvykina once worked as a builder, therefore, as best she could, she improved the housing herself. Cyril loves his grandmother very much, and she tries to give the child everything in her power. Recently, the boy injured his leg and walks on crutches.
“He had a displaced hip joint, they had surgery, so he is on crutches. We live together. His dad is still there, but he has to get out on parole, ”said Cyril’s guardian.

The boy dreams of meeting his brother and sister. She and her grandmother collect photos and clippings from magazines depicting Lera and Sergey. Sukhankina did not remain indifferent to this story.
“My children live “in chocolate”, they have absolutely everything that children should have. I can publicly say that if you and Kirill need help, I am ready to assist you. I am very grateful to you that you “turned on your brains” and took the child,” said Margarita.
Cyril also came to meet the singer, but because of embarrassment and fear, he burst into tears. Sukhankina does not oppose the boy's communication with Leroy and Sergey. The star mother promised to support her children's brother.
“I have a brother and sister, but I have not seen them. I miss them. I am six years old, but I am sick and cannot go to kindergarten, ”Kirill admitted.
Margarita Sukhankina, the performer of the hits of the Mirage group, became the main character of the next issue of the Secret for a Million program. During a long interview with Lera Kudryavtseva, the singer frankly spoke about her four marriages, about her relationship with producer Andrei Lityagin, about why she was never able to give birth to her own children.
At almost 49 years old, the vocalist became a foster mother to two babies Serezha and Lera, who were handed over to an orphanage by their own grandmother. Knowing perfectly well what genes her brother and sister had, Margarita Sukhankina was not afraid to take them up.
“My children have a dash in the father column,” said Margarita Sukhankina. - By the age of thirty, he already had five convictions. Mom is a heavy drinker. But at the time when Seryozha and Lera were born, she was 26 years old, so I hoped that this was not yet a completely drunken woman.
Sukhankina admitted that she had recently learned that the mother of her adopted children, Olga, had died.
“Last winter, I received a paper that she was no more,” said Margarita Sukhankina during the program. - She was found somewhere lifeless ... I admitted this thought. But sometimes I imagined how I would meet this silly mother and tell her: “You see, I saved your children. Look how wonderful they have grown."
By the way, a few years ago, biological parents tried to take their son and daughter away from Margarita Sukhankina. The couple appeared on various talk shows with stories that they were ready to improve and change their lifestyle in order to return their heirs. But all their attempts were then in vain.
The Mirage soloist made it clear that she is calm about the fact that her children sometimes talk about their past life.
“About three years ago, Seryozha remembered: “But when we lived with another mother, they didn’t feed us there,” Sukhankina continued in Secret for a Million. - I calmly react to these things. Lera never talks about this out loud. She is generally very light, and Seryozha is a thin, thinking boy.
The children of Margarita Suhankikoy also have a sister and brother. The girl is already an adult, but the singer wanted to take the boy into her family. But she was dissuaded. He has too severe vices, which can only be corrected by specialists.
Margarita Sukhankina with her son Sergei and daughter Valeria Recognizable "voice" of the most popular hits of the Mirage group Margarita Sukhankina and to this day he performs with the songs that the audience loves.

The artist has a classical mezzo-soprano and has become a successful opera singer.Now the 53-year-old artist leads her own musical group, is on the jury of the children's vocal competition "You are super!" on the NTV channel, and also writes a column on foster parenting for one of the major Internet portals.
“For the first time, I saw my children, who are already very much loved and integral to me, on TV, in Timur Kizyakov’s program “So far, everyone is at home.” I am very glad that it was on this day that I ended up at home, turned on the TV and saw the heading “You will have a child”, where my children were shown. I immediately had a "break of the heart", and literally a few days later I arrived in the city where they lived.
The artist recalls that she instantly “coincided” with the children - the very next day Serezha and Vika called her mother. The singer herself fell in love with them at first sight, and every day she feels them more and more close and dear.

At first, Seryozha often bullied and offended Leroux. Margarita patiently explained that she and her sister were close people and should take care of each other, treat each other kindly. Over time, the children became very friendly: “It seems to me that the truth that they are brother and sister, Seryozha and Lera really realized exactly when they moved to live with me.”
The singer noted that she is very strict with children, since she is responsible for them: “At the same time, I am categorically against any punishment of children! And it doesn’t matter how you try to punish the child: by declaring a boycott, insulting him with a word, depriving him of pocket money or hitting him. Only one thing can be achieved with insults and punishments - the child will start to be afraid of you. Parenting is to cope with your emotions and calmly explain to the child what he did wrong. When he understands the situation and tries not to repeat his mistakes again, it means that you have taken place as a parent.
According to the artist, the main thing for parents is to educate themselves: “By indulging children’s whims, not following your own words, not showing the baby an example of how to behave, believe me, you won’t achieve results.”

In 2013, Margarita Sukhankina, the soloist of the popular Mirage group in the 80-90s, at the age of 49, became a mother for the first time, and at once 2 children: a boy and a girl. However, Margarita did not rejoice at the newly acquired female happiness for long. A few months later, the singer was almost taken away from her son and daughter.
Failed marriages and pregnancies
Margarita Sukhankina always dreamed of becoming a mother. However, unlike professional activities, the singer's personal life did not take shape for a long time. Sukhankina's first husband was a foreigner, Croat Antun Maruna. Together with her husband, she lived either in Germany or in Switzerland. But the well-established life abroad turned out to be an unreliable platform for the family. In addition, as Sukhankina herself admitted, Marun made her a housekeeper, and she wanted to perform on stage. In the end, after 2 years, Margarita and Antun divorced, without having time to have children.
The second choice of the performer was a man whose name she never named. However, Sukhankina more than once recalled that her husband often raised his hand to her and suffered from alcoholism. He also forced Margarita to have an abortion when she first found herself in a position. The next time, the singer decided not to listen to anyone and still have a baby. When the pregnancy was already coming to an end, the baby suffocated in the womb and was born already dead.
TV kids
As time went. Age no longer allowed Margarita to rely on her own strength. But Sukhankina was not going to give up her dream. She thought about both in vitro fertilization and surrogate motherhood. However, as is often the case, everything was decided by chance. In 2012, in one of the television programs, the vocalist saw a story about a brother and sister who turned out to be unnecessary to their own parents and sent to an orphanage. Margarita realized that she had been looking for these children all her life.
The very next year, 3-year-old Valeria and 4-year-old Sergey celebrated a housewarming party in the house of Margarita Sukhankina. Despite the fact that the brother and sister got used to the unfamiliar environment for a long time, they began to call Margarita mother already on the second day after the move. It was when the adopted son and daughter Sukhankina settled down in a new place that the biological father and mother of Valeria and Sergey suddenly appeared in the life of the singer.
Father is a criminal and mother is an alcoholic
Upon learning that their children were taken in by a famous artist, the parents began to portray remorse and insisted that they miss them very much. However, Sukhankina did not believe them. The father of Valeria and Sergey, Alexander, by the age of 30, managed to go to jail at least 5 times, and his mother, Olga, abused alcohol. Moreover, when she came to Sukhankina, the woman did not hide the fact that another of her children, a disabled child, was in a boarding school, and she herself was pregnant again.
Fortunately, the unfortunate spouses did not manage to return Valeria and Sergey. Numerous convictions of the father, who was not even included in the birth certificates of children, and the alcoholism of the mother, who, among other things, by that time had already been deprived of parental rights and were not going to change her lifestyle, played their role. And soon alcohol completely brought the woman to the grave.
Valeria and Sergey today
It is interesting that, according to Margarita Sukhankina herself, who, of course, was not going to give up the children, the mother of the biological father of Valeria and Sergey took her side. The elderly woman was glad that her grandchildren finally fell into reliable, kind and caring hands. And indeed it is.
Today, the daughter and son of the singer already go to school. In addition to studying, they attend hobby groups: Valeria is fond of dancing, and Sergey learns to play the piano and plays basketball. As Sukhankina admits, now she thanks God every day for the happiness bestowed on her.
