The fate of Irina Meladze. There is no more attraction. Meladze's ex-wife spoke for the first time about her husband's betrayal with Dzhanabaeva Valery Meladze's ex-wife gave a frank interview

“Valery Meladze was not only my husband, but also a great friend. And the degree of betrayal, revealed overnight, just cut me down,” the ex-wife of the famous singer once admitted. The marriage of Irina and Valery lasted 25 years. But, as it turned out, last years the singer lived in two families.

For a long time, the Meladze couple was considered an ideal couple. Everyone knew that the singer has a beloved wife and three daughters. Together they often appeared on the pages of glossy magazines and on the red carpet. No matter what happens in their lives, Irina always tried to be the perfect wife. According to Irina herself, she is not at all jealous, so it never occurred to her that Valery could not be faithful to her. Yes, and she also had no reason to suspect Albina Dzhanabaeva, a redhead from the VIAgra group, of anything. Everyone around said that Dzhanabaeva has a young man, from whom she gave birth to a son. When Irina congratulated Albina on the birth of a baby, she could not even think that the boy's father was her husband.

Irina's parents lived together for fifty years. They had a happy marriage. Since their daughter is an idealist by nature, she always thought that everything in her family would be "even more correct and better." Already in the ninth grade, after watching the TV movie "And it's all about him", she realized what kind of husband she should have. "I began to look for Zhenya Stoletov ( main character performed by Igor Kostolevsky). He was a Komsomol leader, leader of the pack. And, as it seemed to me, terribly beautiful," Irina told about her girlish dreams.

Then Irina lived in Ukraine, in Nikolaev. As a third-year student at the shipbuilding institute, she met Valera. He was also a third-year student, studied at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. When he approached her for the first time, she was sure that he would ask about her friend, and he invited her to dance. “Valera was very delicate, it was clear that he was in love. He constantly said compliments. But my heart didn’t wake up then. After all, there was a completely different image in my head,” Irina admitted to Boris Korchevnikov. And she did not want to offend him, she hoped that when he returned after the summer holidays, he would forget her. “In September, Valera, having arrived on the wings of love, appeared at the hostel, opened the door, and I was not alone. And it was a shock for him,” recalls Irina.

She dated someone else for a year. And then, in practice, she met with her Zhenya Stoletov, the secretary of the Komsomol organization of the entire Krasnoyarsk Territory. A month later, he called her to marry, but she did not agree, because she realized that she seemed to be dreaming about something else ... Then she realized that it was Valery - "a kind soft teddy bear" - who would be a wonderful father to her children.

For 26 days, Irina walked the streets of Nikolaev in the hope of a chance meeting with Meladze. Then Valery told her that when he saw her, he felt sorry for her. He even thought that she was ill, and Irina, just preparing for a date with him, dyed her hair black. The girl set herself a goal - to get married at the institute. And so it happened - in the fifth year she became Irina Meladze.

When she was pregnant with their first child, Valery asked: "Do you love me?" To which she honestly but cruelly replied: "Not now, but it seems to me that later I will love you." Irina then gave birth to a boy, and on the tenth day he died. Now she is very sorry that she listened to others and did not go to bury the baby. “This open door, it remained forever. I had to pick him up and see him through to the end,” Irina said sadly.

In 1994, the family moved to Moscow, their daughter Inge was then almost three years old. Valery began to be invited to concerts as a singer, Alla Borisovna Pugacheva called him to her "Christmas Meetings". It was not easy for Irina to change her place of residence: she had no friends in the capital, Inga was sick a lot, for weeks the young mother was forced to stay at home with her child. “We were a family. But each of us lived his own life, each experienced his own story of formation ...” - this is how Irina recalls that difficult period, adding that she had one hundred percent isolation.

Valery began to earn good money, Irina was engaged in raising her daughters. It would seem that a normal life began in their family. But Irina had a strong feeling that "her marriage entered the wall." And Valery referred to problems in business. Once, during another family scandal, "the truth just flew out of him."

“I persistently tried to make Zhenya Stoletov out of my husband. I demanded from him something that was not typical for him at all. And he remained the way he was,” admitted Irina. Much later, Valery reproached his wife for precisely this. "I always knew you needed another man," he told her. Irina does not take all the blame on herself, but admits that there were mistakes in her behavior too. She is sure that the "law of the boomerang" worked in her fate. Now she has no questions for her ex-husband, there are only questions for herself, to which faith in God helps her to look for answers.

How was Irina's acquaintance with Valery's parents, who lived in Batumi? Why didn’t she tell her parents that she was going to get married, but showed her a stamp in her passport? How did she find out about her husband's infidelity? Why did you decide not to get divorced? Why did she pretend for so long that everything was fine in their family, and she was happy? When did the couple finally break up? Who made the decision to divorce? And what does Irina blame herself for now? Answers - in the program

In 2014 (53) he divorced his wife Irina: they were married for 16 years and raised their daughters Inga, Sofya and Arina. While still married to Irina, the singer began dating the former soloist of the VIA Gra group Albina Dzhanabaeva (40), who gave birth to his sons Konstantin and Luka - they hid their relationship for more than ten years, and in 2016 for the first time together at the premiere of the film “#Fix Everything !?!"

And the other day, Irina came to the program "The Fate of a Man", where she frankly spoke about her divorce from Meladze and her relationship with her ex-husband now.

“I began to guess about two years before the final break ... Valera refused to talk, although I tried to find out the reason for the change in his behavior. And once he just broke loose and told everything, but did not name her. What I heard was a shock to me. Later, from a friend, I found out what it was. For me, the news came as a surprise. Of course, I knew Albina, but I could not even imagine that she already had a son from Valera. I never saw her as a rival and I still don't see her to this day. At that moment, I simply began to beg God to burn this love out of my heart, to erase Valera from there. Otherwise, I simply would not be able to live, and I have children, - she shared, - In the first months, I thought that there could be no question of any forgiveness. But love is such a strange thing. I think if at first he had returned, I would have forgiven him, of course.

According to Irina, after her husband confessed everything to her, she decided to meet his new lover in person: “I wanted to talk to her, get to know her, maybe I don’t know something - maybe she is so good? I got her phone number and invited her to a meeting. I wasn't afraid. Honestly, I don’t know how it will be considered proud or not, but I never had an inferiority complex. She certainly wasn't scared."

Irina Meladze remained silent for 10 years, she did not give interviews about what happened in their family, but now she decided to draw a line. She congratulated the former soloist of VIA Gra Albina Dzhanabaeva on the birth of her son, not knowing that his father was her husband Valery Meladze. The singer confessed to his wife that he had a relationship on the side and even a child, but he hid who this woman was until the last.
“I want to put an end to it, like a lizard - to throw off its tail, which prevents it from changing conditions and moving on,” Irina explains her decision to give a long-awaited and sensational interview to the NTV channel.
Irina kept silence for a long time and even played the role of a happy wife - all for the sake of her three daughters. But even the patience of such a woman came to an end.

“What kind of lady of the heart was it when a family with three children is at stake? .. I remember the moment when this first call rang - this is his SMS correspondence when I realized that the person has changed. As I later realized, this coincided with the beginning of these long-term hobbies of his. And of course it affected his behavior. As a loving wife, I asked many questions, but I heard the same answers: that he had problems at work, endless bank loans.

It was just at the time when his brother Konstantin Meladze suggested that he try a duet with VIA Groy. Irina herself says that she has never been a jealous wife, has long reconciled herself with her husband's fans and did not notice the constantly changing soloists of VIA Gra - she considered this the cost of the profession, and her duty was to keep the hearth, which she did very well.

“Relations have cooled, but not on my part. I can’t say that we had scandals ... He was always expected at home. It went on like this for several years."

Irina even went to church so that everything would work out in the family. “I had many answers in my head, but I could not even admit the real reason for this behavior.”

Irina did not notice Albina Dzhanabaeva while she sang backing vocals with Valery, but she was very surprised when she got to VIA Gro after some time.

« She had an unconvincing image for such a group. As they say, it was hard to watch without tears. I, too, at first did not understand, like all women, how she got there at all, because she did not fit into the format of the group according to any criteria. For a long time I did not understand what she was doing there, and in general, what happened to Konstantin, that he had such a program failure in terms of the filter. And there was no special voice data there. ”

“In general, it was such a pitiful image, I purely in a feminine way recommended her to put her head and hair in order, advised her a stylist. Makeup, eyebrows - everything raised questions.

“I even, in my opinion, congratulated her on the birth of a child. But I was told a story that she had a musician boyfriend from some symphony orchestra. He met her, everyone in the group knew him, so I had no reason to suspect her. Then they convinced me that she was married.”

“All the girls from the group were calm and behaved mediocre, but the citizen Dzhanabaeva behaved very nervously with me, it even somehow seemed to me that she wanted to tell me something. Her eyes flickered, she blinked frequently and literally froze when I approached. But I did not understand the reason for this behavior.

Irina Meladze found out about everything in 2006. Together with her daughters, she came to the music awards ceremony, but Valery spent the whole evening not with them, and then he also sang the controversial song “No Fuss” with the words: “Look how I learned to live without you.”

After that, at home, to the wife's question "What was that?" Meladze seemed to break through and he confessed. “He told me that he has a relationship on the side, even there is a child. To the question "Who?" he didn't answer anything, but it was a matter of 20 minutes to find out."

“I could not understand how there could be such a degree of deception from a person whom I considered not only loving husband, but also another. This is the degree of betrayal, which was revealed overnight. It just blew me away."
“I started poking around in myself, what did I do wrong. But this process is still useful, because in order to move on, you need to figure out what happened in your life. Yes, and he behaved the same way - neither yes nor no. "I'll live alone" - well, live. At the same time, I was still involved in saving the family, trying to find out something, I did not want to accept what was obvious.

“What did she need him for? Yes it is clear. If there was such a Valery Meladze, selling tangerines at the market, I wonder if it would be the same? In some interviews, the girl Dzhanabaeva said that she was born for the stage. I can draw some personal conclusions about the purpose for which all this was originally, but love ... yes, Valery is a handsome man, but it all makes me smile: on the subject - I fell in love, I couldn’t. It was all too attractive, like a hot cake. It was hard not to take advantage of the situation.”

“When I had already made a decision, I suddenly realized that all this would rebound on the children, and again tied myself in a knot, and this lasted for several more years.”

“My father left when I was three years old,” says Meladze's youngest daughter Arina. - Then I did not understand, but now, when I look at my classmates and their full-fledged family, I feel a little offended, - and the girl does not hide her tears.- What happened to my mom and dad - to be honest, I don’t want such a family for myself, because the family should be complete: the child should have both a father and a mother. They should not quarrel, because if they feel bad, then the same goes for the child.”

“I closed myself in and could not get out of this state for a long time,” says the middle daughter Sonya. - And it will never go away. The people who have experienced this, children, will understand me, because such things are not forgotten. It still hurts when I talk about it, but it was and you can't get it anywhere. So we live with it, ”the girl says, barely holding back tears.

“I understood that in order to survive in this hell - there is no other way to call it - you need to abstract. Therefore, I did not take any drastic steps, - continues Irina Meladze. - That's why it took so long. Children had to survive as much as possible in this situation. I tried to soften it as much as possible for them, and I supported this picture.

They supported the “picture” of a happy family until the journalists found out that Valery Meladze lives with Dzhanabaeva. Then Irina called Albina and offered to meet and talk, promising no inadequate reactions. But she refused.

But perhaps the marriage of Irina and Valery cracked at the very beginning. “It's been 26 years this year. And it's getting harder and harder every year."

The three daughters of Meladze could have an older brother.“Two months before the birth, I went to my parents. Everything went according to plan. I packed my bag and went to bed with the knowledge that tomorrow I have a due date. I went to bed healthy, and woke up with a temperature of 38, and the child has a degree and a half more inside. I gave birth - the temperature has passed. Everything, nothing more. You don't understand what's going on. The child is in intensive care, and I behaved very obediently: I went into the children's room and did not even take him in my arms, because I was not allowed in the Soviet hospital.

Valera left the phone and left to record songs in Lviv. But his phone was silent, my mother called every day, there was no answer. Arrived on the 10th day on my own as it was impossible to contact him and coincidentally it was the day the child died. Of course, he helped bury. And then I spent some more time with my parents, came to my senses, and he had to leave. Probably, from the fact that I could not come to my senses at all, all questions arose many years later.

“I have no evil towards him, not a single question (to Valery - ed.). It’s so empty there, it’s just ashes, everything is burned out, there’s not even anger there. In this story, there is only me and my son, no one else. The pain remained, the connection remained, I always thought and still think that I have not three, but four children, just one lives there, ”Irina points to the sky.

It so happened that another woman gave birth to Valery's sons. Irina herself is not offended by this, but she notes the obvious similarity of the situation with the family of Valery's older brother, Konstantin Meladze, who also left his wife for the sake of the ex-Viagryan Vera Brezhneva.

“I'm interested to see how it ends,” Irina says about Valery's relationship with Dzhanabaeva. - As far as I understand how the laws of life and justice work, of course, sometimes people think that they should find answers in just a year or two, but some things stretch for decades. Everyone gets what they deserve, what you sow is what you reap»

After each concert, Valery Meladze always hurried to his beloved wife and three adored daughters. Many fans of the singer still do not believe this: it seems that yesterday at a social event Irina and Valery were seen together, and on the pages of fashionable gloss they literally just shared the secrets of family longevity.

Only today, Irina decided to frankly admit: she was an actress and even played a role behind the scenes. For the sake of the tranquility of her daughters, for a long time she did not want to take dirty linen out of the hut. But even the most persistent woman has a limit when she runs out of strength to endure and portray a happy couple.

For the first time their views crossed in the third year of the institute, when both were only 20 years old. At first they met in the corridors of the institute, then they began to meet in the hostel where Irina lived. Student romance ended with a wedding.

Unfortunately, the black-and-white movie camera at their wedding didn't pick up sound. But here everything is clear without words: in the unique footage of the home chronicle, the bride with a magnificent hairdo, next to her is a well-fed young groom, the future sex symbol of the stage, Valery Meladze.

The film clearly shows how the bride leans on salad and appetizers. No wonder - then she already had to eat for two.

Irina: “We celebrated our wedding with our parents in Batumi, signed in March, and the wedding itself was on June 23 Valery had a birthday. I had terrible toxicosis, I couldn’t even sit, but I had to keep my face, I sat at the wedding, which sang and walked for several days. There were probably 300 people there.”

Irina could not get enough of the fact that she would soon become a real mother. And what is very important will give birth to Valera's heir. Doctors have already told the young that they will have a boy. Everything that happened next was more like a bad dream.

Irina: “I lay down healthy, and when I opened my eyes in the morning, I had a temperature of 38. And the child has 1.5 degrees more inside. I gave birth, and the temperature went away. You don't understand what's going on. The child is in intensive care, I behaved obediently I didn’t go into the children’s room and didn’t even take him in my arms, because they didn’t let me.”

Meladze himself at that moment left to record the song in Lviv. He arrived only on the tenth day. By a fatal coincidence, their firstborn died on the same day. Heartbroken, Irina could not recover. Everything around was like a fog. She needed the support of her beloved husband, but he had to go again.

The long-awaited heir to Valery Meladze will still appear, but it will not be Irina who will give birth to him, but the soloist of VIA Gra. In this ensemble, brunettes were replaced by brunettes in an endless string, other blondes came instead of blondes. And only Albina Dzhanabaeva remained the only redhead for eight years in a row. The public did not know that she had a little son and who his dad really was. Even in the close circle of the singer, only a few knew the truth. Dzhanabaeva always reacted extremely nervously to questions about the father of her son. It caught everyone's eye.

Today, Irina has something to say about the lovebird Albina, and she did not keep it to herself. Irina does not even doubt: everything in this world does not pass without a trace. Fate will still make her pay the bills, because she experienced it herself.

Irina: “I'm interested to see how it all ends. Sometimes it seems to people that the answers should come in a year, two, three. But many things stretch over decades. Everyone will get what they deserve, as they say: what you sow, so you reap.

Irina found the strength and courage to publicly tell the difficult story of her life. Whether Albina, the lovebird, has the courage to do so, is an open question.
