The manager told the star that the parents abandoned the boy due to a heart defect. Ovsienko found money for the operation and decided that if it was successful, she would definitely adopt this boy. And so it happened.

On the topic that Igor was adopted, the star first told him at the age of 18 and offered to find his biological mother, but the guy refused, saying that he already had a mother and he didn’t need another.

Sandra Bullock

In 2010, she adopted a boy, Louis. The adoption took place against the backdrop of a divorce from Jesse James due to his constant infidelities. The couple planned to raise the child together, but Bullock took sole custody, which angered her ex-partner. The baby helped the celebrity survive a divorce, and in 2015, information appeared in the media that the actress had adopted another child, a girl named Lila.

The first sign was a singer popular in the 11990s Tatiana Ovsienko. In 1998, she adopted a boy from congenital defect hearts and thereby seriously influenced the consciousness of people in our country. Tatyana did not hide the truth or invent incredible stories the birth of a baby in the family, and frankly told her story.

Our group had a rule: during tours, give charity concerts in orphanages. In Penza, during a performance at the Palace of Culture, I received a note from the head physician of the Orphanage with a request to bring green apples to the children. We filled the car with boxes and drove along the specified address. That's where I saw Igor. A tiny boy sat in the corner, holding in his hands... an algebra textbook turned upside down. He was two and a half years old at that time. I was amazed and started asking about him: who? What? It turned out that his 17-year-old mother, having learned that her son had a heart defect, abandoned him. When there were Americans who wanted to adopt him, his grandfather prevented him and did not sign the necessary papers. “He’s dying,” the manager told me. “We need an operation, but it can only be done in Moscow, and we have no way to get permission for this.”

A day later, I was sitting at the Bakulevsky Cardiology Center with Igor’s medical records. And I knew that if the operation was successful, I would never part with the boy.” 32-year-old Tanya, who did not have children of her own, quickly learned everything a mother should know.

After the operation, she spent a couple of months with Igor in the hospital for rehabilitation, the boy became attached to her and called her mom.

The singer confronted her husband, producer Vladimir Dubovitsky, with a fait accompli. Whether he wanted to adopt the boy or not, Tanya did not care, the decision was made and was not subject to appeal.

Six months later, the adoption process began. Dubovitsky recognized the child and Igor, by court decision, received his last name. Tatyana was happy about this, she was afraid that if Igor became Ovsienko, he would quickly be found by him biological mother. But it all worked out, Igor grew up, got married, but his own mother never showed up.

Although it was no secret in the family that Igor was an adopted child, this topic was never raised. Only when Dubovitsky Jr. turned 18 years old and he flew to his mother in Moscow from America, where last years lives with his father, asked: “Mom, tell me who I am.”

“The day before, he talked to Vova about the same thing. In my opinion, it was wrong to discuss such difficult question in the absence of the mother. Still, Igoresha lived most of his life with me. But be that as it may, that evening we had a heart-to-heart talk, we both cried, and I offered to find his mother. But Igor said: “You are mom. I don’t need another one,” Tanya said in an interview with TN.

One of the most prominent TV presenters of the 90s Svetlana Sorokina became a mother at the age of 46, after divorcing her second husband. I didn’t think about the fact that the offensive “single mother” would attach itself to her. Fifteen years ago, Svetlana saw a one-year-old girl in a walker in a shelter, and realized that only Tone wanted to become a mother. Although, as the journalist admitted, before that she dreamed of adopting a boy.

With the advent of Tony, Svetlana began to work less, although before that she suffered from workaholism and devoted a lot of time and effort to raising her child. The girl turned out to have good musical abilities, and her mother sent her to a music school at the Gnessin School. It is interesting that Tonya Sorokina named her daughter in honor of her grandmother Antonina Ivanovna. The TV presenter rarely attends social events, and 16-year-old Antonina appears even more rarely. But when you manage to see them together, you can’t even dare to name this happy family incomplete!

Star of the famous Lenkom 56-year-old Victor Rakov- father of three children. From his first marriage, the actor has a 30-year-old son, Boris. From the second - 27-year-old daughter Anastasia and 11-year-old son Danila. Victor and his wife Lyudmila did not immediately tell the public that the youngest was an adopted child. They presented the boy to the press as own son, late and desirable, but then declassified. It turned out that the couple really wanted another child together, but... “we assume, but God disposes.” The long-awaited pregnancy did not occur. Then the idea arose to take the child from the orphanage. Moreover, Victor and Luda did not agree in advance what their baby should look like. When they saw 2-year-old Danya, both their hearts sank. They looked at the other children, but only Danya reigned in their thoughts. They returned to him, played and... went back to Moscow without voicing a decision. And the very next day they returned. Thanks to Rakov's popularity, the adoption process went faster than expected. The child came into the family on the eve of the new year, 2009. His sister Nastya happily accepted her brother, they even look alike!

When the Rakovs were filming for TN, it could not have occurred to me that Danya was not a child of his own blood. All four of them were so filled with tenderness and love for each other.

Few people know that the popular actress Maria Mironova has a brother. Her mother, actress Ekaterina Gradova, the famous radio operator Kat from “17 Moments of Spring,” took a one-year-old boy Alyosha from an orphanage. It is noteworthy that this was the same orphanage where her movie children were found. Ekaterina Georgievna is married to former nuclear physicist Igor Timofeev. Their adopted son Alexey did not follow in his parents' footsteps and served in Marine Corps and is engaged in the restaurant business.

U Alexey Serebryakov no native children. More precisely, there are even three, but by blood they are strangers. When he married his beloved woman, Maria, he became a stepfather to her daughter Dasha. In a recent interview with Yuri Dudu, Alexey said that he and Masha dreamed of having a large family, but... it didn’t work out. Then the couple thought about adoption.

First Stepan appeared at the Serebryakovs, then he brother Danila. Both boys grew up in an orphanage. Surprisingly, the three children are similar to each other and to their parents!

Adoption is not always the lot of young couples. For example, Natalia Belokhvostikova and her husband Vladimir Naumov became parents to 3-year-old Kirill when Natalya Nikolaevna was 56 years old and Vladimir Naumovich was 80!

When Belokhvostikova and Naumov arrived at the orphanage, Kirill did not try to attract attention to himself. Other children were jumping around, grabbing hands and asking to be taken home. And Kiryusha waited until the fuss died down, came up and quietly asked: “Auntie, everyone has crosses, but I don’t. Give it to me, please." This modest request moved the actress to tears. They brought the boy pectoral cross and were soon adopted. 11 years have passed since then.

Their own daughter, Natalya Naumova accepted Kiryusha as a brother. The boy is growing up as a developed child, draws well, recites poetry, studies are easy for him, foreign languages. The couple admitted that they never regretted their decision.

Psychologist's opinion:

1. An adopted child is often a salvation for childless couples. The spouses have a feeling of a real full-fledged family, responsibility for each other and for the child.

2. The common argument: “It is unknown what kind of genes an adopted child has” is broken by the argument that our own children often present us with unpleasant surprises. Either the child looks like a drunkard grandfather, or like a slacker uncle.

3. If you decide to take a baby, be prepared for the fact that he will definitely go through a difficult period of denying the authority of his parents during puberty. Perhaps he will start looking for biological parents. An experienced psychologist will tell you how to act.

4. You should not hide the fact that the baby is adopted. Otherwise, you will have to live for years under the sword of Damocles, fearing accidental exposure. The world is not without “good” people. Even if you change your place of residence and pass off your baby as your own from birth, problems may arise over time. Your son or daughter will accidentally find documents, relatives will spill the beans, or you yourself will actually traumatize him.

The decision to take in a child left without parental care is made for various reasons: some cannot get pregnant and give birth to a baby, others simply want to help an orphan. Domestic celebrities are no exception; they willingly take children into their care.

Tatiana Ovsienko

The singer never planned to adopt. Tatyana dreamed of having a natural child, but after she made a career. Only everything turned out differently. She did not give birth to a son, but met her by chance during a charity event in an orphanage in the city of Penza. This happened in the late 90s. Tatyana brought gifts and invitation cards to her concert for the children. The sad eyes of one of the children touched her to the depths of her soul.

Tatyana found out that Igor suffers from a heart defect and urgently needs surgery. The boy was not even three years old. Without surgery, the chances of survival were minimal. The orphanage could not pay for the expensive treatment in the capital. Ovsienko paid for the operation, and the boy’s condition improved. The singer brought him to her country house to recover in favorable conditions. After living together, Tatyana could not part with the boy and took Igor.

The guy found out that he was an adopted child at the age of 16. It was a shock for him. The son became estranged from his mother. Only a heart-to-heart conversation with Tatyana helped improve the relationship. The young man lives and studies in America, plays in a rock band. He made a full recovery, and doctors allowed him to lead a normal life. According to family friends, Igor is sociable and calm person, very attached to his mother.

Victor Rakov

The famous theater and film actor Viktor Rakov and his wife Lyudmila adopted a child in the winter of 2009. The star has a 25-year-old son, Boris, from his first marriage. The couple also has a daughter together, Anastasia, 20 years old. She lives separately from her parents. Lyudmila failed to get pregnant again, so the couple decided to take the child up for adoption. There was no definite idea of ​​who exactly to take: a girl or a boy. Appearance didn't matter either.

When the couple received permission to adopt, they began looking for a child on the websites of orphanages. But it soon became clear that it was better to go and get to know each other ourselves. There were a lot of people in the capital who wanted to adopt a child, so the Rakovs went to an orphanage in the Moscow region. Upon arrival, we immediately noticed two-year-old Danila. After looking at the other kids, they returned to him. The paperwork procedure went quickly, thanks to the actor’s name and the proximity of the New Year. Danya moved to a new house on December 29. The couple completed documents to change their surname, now their son is Danil Viktorovich Rakov.

Margarita Sukhankina

The lead singer of the Mirage group became a mother in 2013. Margarita Sukhankina took two charming children from the orphanage: a four-year-old boy, Seryozha, and a three-year-old girl, Valeria. It so happened that the singer does not have her own children. All pregnancies ended sadly.

Sukhankina saw abandoned children in the story of the program “While everyone is at home.” According to the star, at first sight they sank into her soul. A few days later, Margarita arrived in the city where the children were. Contact between them appeared immediately. The next day after they met, the kids began calling her mom. Her parents help her in raising the children. The singer is incredibly happy and cannot imagine her life without them.

Mikhail Barshchevsky

The famous lawyer Mikhail Barshchevsky and his wife have been together for more than forty years. They managed to become good parents, as well as grandparents. Daughter Natalya gave them grandchildren long ago. However, the Barshchevsky family has other children - twins Dasha and Maxim, who were adopted in 2008. They had children at the age of two, during which time they became truly family.

The lawyer's family lives in a large country house in outskirts of Moscow. According to Mikhail, he grew up in poverty and always dreamed of his own private home. When the opportunity arose, he and his wife moved. New house They built it for several years, and now it has become a real family estate of the Barshchevskys.

The idea to adopt children came when the grandchildren grew up and began to rarely visit their grandparents. When children appeared in the house, the Barshchevskys took a new look at life. Every day was filled with joy and cheerful children's laughter.

Alexey Serebryakov

Information about the actor’s adopted children appeared in the media thanks to journalists who, without Alexei’s permission, published the news in one publication. The case was even taken to court. Serebryakov and his wife Maria adopted one boy, two-year-old Danil, and then a second, Stepan, despite difficult life circumstances.

Besides adopted sons, the spouses have eldest daughter Daria, a girl born in Maria's first marriage. It was not possible to have children together. Therefore, it was decided to take the kids from the shelter. The adoption went smoothly. Despite her misgivings, the eldest daughter received her younger brothers well.

For the last 7 years, the actor and his family have been living in Toronto. His wife is a Canadian citizen. According to Alexey, the move is connected with his political position and desire to give better life children.

Svetlana Sorokina

The TV presenter became one of the first who openly announced the decision to take the child from the orphanage. She for a long time I was building a career and didn’t even think about procreation. However, after the divorce, Svetlana decided to adopt a child on her own.

The journalist dreamed of a two- or three-year-old son and was looking for a boy. But on my next visit to the shelter I saw a one-year-old girl with dark hair and brown eyes. Sorokina immediately realized that this was her child. In 2003, she became the mother of a girl, Antonina. After a while it became clear that the decision was correct. Tonya is similar to her adoptive mother both in character and appearance. The star dotes on the girl and notes that her daughter has always been serious and calm, and has never caused problems.

There is a true statement: there are no other people's children. This is proven by celebrities who decided to adopt a baby from a shelter. An adopted child will become your own if you show patience and give him love and attention.

Not every person is capable of taking someone else's child into his family and giving him his warmth and care. This requires a special generosity of soul, a desire to make not only yourself happy, and an understanding of all the possible difficulties that you will have to face. And the more respect deserves people who managed to take responsibility for someone else’s fate and give happiness to a little person.
