She was called Brezhnev's favorite granddaughter. The birth in the family of the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU seemed to guarantee a comfortable life and a happy fate. But it turned out differently ... Victoria Filippova died on January 5, 2018 at the age of 65 from cancer. The granddaughter of the Secretary General lived modestly and did not tell anyone that she had the last stage of the disease. Before the New Year, she asked to bring her daughter Galya to her, with whom she had not talked for a long time, she said that she wanted to make peace with her. And it turned out - said goodbye ... Meanwhile, the death of Brezhnev's granddaughter gave rise to an unexpected scandal, as familiar families told us about.

From the funeral made exclusive

Vika, the granddaughter of Leonid Ilyich, was born in the family of Galina Brezhneva and her first husband, circus performer Yevgeny Milayev, who had two children from a previous marriage, Natasha and Alexander Milayev, Igor Shchelokov, the son of the former Soviet Interior Minister and friend, told KP. the Brezhnev family of Nikolai Shchelokov. - Brother and sister Vicki decided not to tell anyone about her death. They buried her quietly. None of her friends knew that she had died. And I would certainly come to say goodbye to Vitusya.

I am outraged by what happened, ”actress Victoria Lazich told KP. - I was friends with Galina Brezhneva, I have great respect for the family of Leonid Ilyich and his granddaughter Victoria. I and many of my friends would definitely come to the funeral. But the Milayevs, by their silence, actually forbade everyone who loved Brezhnev and his family to see his granddaughter on their last journey! I was shocked when I saw the funeral service in the church on TV. There are only three people at the coffin - Sasha and Natasha Milaev and Victoria's own daughter Galochka. Excuse me, only the homeless or criminals are buried like that! The Milayevs gave this exclusive farewell to the TV channel, not for free, of course. They called the television and asked to help them with the funeral. We learned in fact - everything is buried! These are the new realities of our time, when even death can be sold. I have no questions for Victoria's daughter Galina, she is inadequate, she has not yet recovered from the alcohol syndrome. The same Milayevs sold an interview of Galina Brezhneva to the BBC channel many years ago, exposing her to ridicule when she danced the cancan drunk on the table. Victoria was offended by her mother and did not speak to them for many years.

The BBC channel then went out to Alexander Milaev, Igor Shchelokov assures. - They gave him and his sister a thousand dollars, bought a box of champagne and without warning came home to Galina Leonidovna. Then the Milayevs left, supposedly they had business. Galina Leonidovna drank with the reporters for the meeting, then another. And then they start filming the drunk woman. Naturally, after this, Victoria did not communicate with her brother and sister for a long time.

"Drank, and very strongly"

Shortly before her death, Victoria Filippova gave an interview, which, after her funeral, was shown in the Let They Talk program. The Secretary General's granddaughter spoke about her relationship with her grandfather, family problems, and why she sent her mother Galina Brezhnev and her daughter Galya to a mental hospital.

From my seven months I lived with my grandparents in the country, - said Victoria Evgenievna. - Grandpa was a very affectionate person. If he did not occupy this difficult post and did not devote all his time to work, then he would constantly take care of his grandchildren ... I do not like it when they say "the last days of Leonid Ilyich." He just fell asleep - and he was gone. And the day before was cheerful, as on all other days. I remember how on that last evening he wanted to listen to the record, I sat on the bed next to him, and we listened to the songs of the war years for a very long time. I kissed him goodnight and he went to bed. He didn't wake up in the morning...

The girl was actually raised by her grandmother - the wife of Secretary General Victoria Brezhnev. Vicki's mother was busy organizing her turbulent personal life. With Vika's father, circus performer Evgeny Milayev, Galina Brezhneva lived for five years and divorced because of his betrayal. This was followed by a series of stormy novels - with magician Igor Kio, ballet star Maris Liepa ...

Mom had real relationships and feelings with two men - my dad and Liepa. Mom was an ideal wife under my father: she cooked and cleaned herself. There was not a single housekeeper then. She did all the housework herself, because my father ordered so, - Filippova said in a television interview. - Mom was a smart woman until she started drinking. It happened early, when she began a relationship with Maris Liepa, she began to take alcohol. He didn't like it very much. It did not work out for them, because Maris Eduardovich was not going to leave the family.

Then my mother drank. I drank very hard. Something had to be done about it, otherwise it would have ended badly. I sent her to a psychiatric hospital - I couldn't let her die under the fence. She didn't want to live with me. I was called to the house where she lived, and they said: take her away from here or we will evict her. She was not alone for a day: all the time her friends were in the apartment, who flocked from everywhere, and there were strangers from the street ... Therefore, they disappeared, jewelry was stolen ...

When asked if she loved her mother Galina Brezhneva, Victoria Filippova replied: “I loved my childhood idea of ​​her. My mother and I were strangers, we rarely saw each other. I had a different life."

“Under Gorbachev, our family was persecuted”

While grandfather was alive, Victoria's life flowed well. The problems began after Brezhnev's death. The granddaughter of the Secretary General told how her family was persecuted under Gorbachev. It was at this time that Victoria became a victim of "black realtors" and lost her property and money.

I exchanged my apartment for two small ones: for myself and my daughter, but I didn’t receive my part of the money, Filippova said. - It was Gorbachev's time. And no one stood up. Why was it us, grandchildren, to poison? We were not in politics, the country was not robbed. They poisoned us, and with us our children. My Galya was not accepted into the Komsomol, they threw us out of all polyclinics, from everywhere. In the end, they cut me off - they kicked me out of the State Committee for Publishing. When Boris Nikolaevich came (Yeltsin. - Ed.), It became easier ...

Victoria's daughter Galina drank herself and became homeless: in the summer she spent the night on playgrounds, in the winter - in the porches. A few years ago, Victoria sent her daughter to a psychiatric clinic. Just like she did with her mother Galina Brezhneva.

HELP "KP"

Both marriages were unhappy.

Victoria Filippova (Milaeva) was born in the family of the daughter of the USSR Secretary General Galina Brezhneva and circus performer Evgeny Milaev. They named her in honor of her grandmother - the wife of Leonid Ilyich Victoria Brezhneva. When the girl was five years old, her parents separated. Her stepfather in the future was Yuri Churbanov (Colonel General of the USSR Ministry of Internal Affairs).

After school, Victoria studied at Moscow State University, but transferred to GITIS. The first husband is Mikhail Filippov, a former employee of Vneshtorg. In marriage, a daughter, Galya, was born. The second husband is Gennady Varakuta, a lieutenant general of the KGB.

Victoria was a housewife, then she worked at the State Committee for Publishing. In Gorbachev's times, she was left without a job. To provide for herself, she began to exchange apartments with a surcharge. I fell for the bait of "black realtors" and was left without a home. Her only daughter, Galya, was a wanderer. For the last ten years, Victoria has lived in Pavlovsky Posad in the house of Dmitry's common-law husband.

Daughter identified in a psychiatric clinic. A few years ago, Galya left the hospital. An apartment in Moscow was helped by a Moscow deputy who saw on television a report about her miserable situation. Shortly before her death, Victoria Evgenievna nevertheless began to communicate with her daughter. Her daughter found out that her mother had cancer six months ago. It turned out that Victoria Evgenievna was diagnosed with cancer late, she knew that she was doomed, but she held firm.

She was buried at the Novodevichy cemetery.

During the New Year holidays, the granddaughter of the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU Leonid Brezhnev, Victoria Filippova, passed away at the age of 65. Shortly before that, she gave a frank interview to Dmitry Borisov. For a long time, Victoria Evgenievna refused to communicate with journalists, but made an exception for the “Let them talk” program. She spoke about what she used to prefer to keep a secret.

Victoria Filippova remembered that she had a neutral relationship with her mother Galina. According to her, her mother almost did not take part in her upbringing. The granddaughter of the Secretary General did not feel sorry for the parent, who at the end of her life ended up in a nursing home. The woman admitted that it was not easy with her - her mother refused to live under the supervision of her daughter. There were always people in her apartment - friends, buddies and even strangers.

“She drank very heavily, something had to be done about it. I could not let her die under the fence, ”said Victoria Evgenievna.

Dmitry Borisov asked where the jewels, which were legendary in the Soviet Union, had gone. “All this was stolen, there were dishonest people. It was not deposits - a box, not deposits, ”the woman admitted.

Victoria Evgenievna remembered that her mother was an ideal wife only with her first husband, acrobat Evgeny Milaev. Also, the daughter was aware of her mother's novels - a loud relationship with ballet dancer Maris Liepa did not end in a wedding just because the man did not intend to leave his family for Brezhneva. “Everything worked out for her only with my father, everyone was surprised, she was an ideal wife - not a single housekeeper, because he ordered so,” the granddaughter of the Secretary General recalled.

Dmitry Borisov also touched upon the topic of Victoria Evgenievna's difficult relationship with her own daughter, Galina. The great-granddaughter of Leonid Ilyich had to exchange a large apartment in the center, but later the girl ended up in a psychiatric hospital.

“My mother decided to put me there, and I left - without a residence permit, without an apartment,” Galina said.

The daughter of Victoria Evgenievna appeared in the studio with her aunt Natalya and uncle Alexander Milaev. They remembered that Victoria never complained about her health. Her death was announced by the civil husband of Brezhnev's granddaughter Dmitry.

“She told me in December, we wrote an SMS on the 31st to congratulate me on the new year. This happened not that unexpectedly, she looked very bad. I hoped that she would get better, gave five thousand for the New Year, ”Galina recalled.

However, the woman did not have time to talk about whether she managed to make peace with her mother. Dmitry Borisov promised to devote another issue of the program “Let them talk” to this topic in the near future.

On January 6, Leonid Brezhnev's granddaughter Victoria Filippova died of cancer. She had a daughter, Galina, who for some time underwent treatment in a psychiatric clinic, after which she complained about the lack of an apartment and a residence permit. However, now the great-granddaughter of the Secretary General of the USSR nevertheless decided the issue of housing - she got real estate in the Moscow region. Galina rents out an apartment.

Many people remember that Brezhnev's daughter, Galina Leonidovna, had a lot of jewelry. Now no one knows where all the untold riches owned by the heirs of the head of a huge state have gone.

Dmitry Borisov in the program “Let them talk” showed an interview given by Victoria Filippova shortly before her death. She recalled that after exchanging an apartment in Granatny Lane - for two small ones - she should have received a large monetary compensation, but the amount for the exchange was not paid.

Brezhnev's great-granddaughter Galina is worried about the inheritance that belongs to her by right. Now she is 44 years old, she is not going to get married, as well as give birth to children - because of the difficult financial situation.

“A lot of things worries me, not only in connection with the inheritance, but also with my property status,” the woman said.

Now Galina does not know where her grandmother's jewelry went. Her mother's half-sister Natalya Milayeva admitted that Brezhnev's daughter loved jewelry.

“I don’t know about money, but she loved jewelry, our father bought it, but I don’t know where it went,” the woman said.

As it turned out, after the wake of Victoria Filippova, relatives began to discuss where the property that belonged to her could go. They counted at least four apartments, two of which were in the center of Moscow. The family of Brezhnev's granddaughter remembered that she had housing on Novinsky Boulevard - a five-room apartment. Once a woman came there, but it turned out that strangers had been living there for a long time.

Also relatives of Galina Leonidovna suggested that her addiction to alcoholic beverages appeared for a reason.

“A lot of people stuck that soldered and made this. They found a small weakness and began to do their own business, apartments, they squeezed out everything that was possible, and it is trouble-free, ”Alexander Milaev believes.

The relatives also remembered that in a special case at Brezhnev's famous dacha, jewelry was kept that suddenly disappeared. If Galina finds jewelry, she will receive a fabulous inheritance.

Born in the family of the daughter of the Secretary General of the USSR Galina Brezhneva and circus performer Yevgeny Milayev. They named her in honor of her grandmother - the wife of Leonid Ilyich Victoria Brezhneva. While mom and dad were touring with the circus, Vika was raised by her grandparents - she lived with the Brezhnevs in the country.

Victoria Filippova died in a small apartment on the outskirts of Moscow, without devoting anyone to her problems. Brezhnev's granddaughter lived modestly, as a recluse, and did not give interviews. But shortly before her death, she decided to confess - today she sounded in the program "Let them talk." Victoria Filippova spoke about her relationship with relatives and admitted why she sent her mother Galina and her only daughter Galina to a psychiatric hospital.

About grandpa

From my 7 months I lived with my grandparents in the country. Grandpa was a very kind person. If he had not held this difficult position and had not devoted all his time to work, he would have constantly taken care of his grandchildren ... I do not like it when they say "the last days of Leonid Ilyich." He just fell asleep - and he was gone. And the day before was cheerful, as on all other days. I remember how on that last evening he wanted to listen to the record, I sat on the bed next to him, and we listened to the songs of the war years for a very long time. I kissed him goodnight and he went to bed. He didn't wake up in the morning...

About mom

Victoria Filippova said that Leonid Ilyich ended the relationship between her mother Galina and Igor Kio. Galina Brezhneva, without filing a divorce from her husband (Victoria's father), flew off on a honeymoon trip to Sochi with Igor Kio.

No it was not love - nonsense! It happens to everyone in life. Love is a very big word for this story,” Filippova said about her mother’s romance with Kyo. - Mom loved only two people: my father and Maris Eduardovich Liepa ... Mom was a smart woman until she started drinking. It happened early, when she began a relationship with Maris Eduardovich Liepa, she began to allow herself to take alcohol in small doses. He didn't like it very much. It did not work out for them, because Maris Eduardovich was not going to leave the family. Mom had real relationships and feelings with two men - my dad and Liepa. Mom was an ideal wife under my father: she cooked and cleaned herself. There was not a single housekeeper then. She did all the housework herself, because my father ordered so ...

Then my mother drank. I drank very hard. Something had to be done about it, otherwise it would have ended badly. I sent her to a psychiatric hospital - I couldn't let her die under the fence. She did not want to live with me, but it was impossible to force her. I was called to the house where she lived, and they said - take her away from here or we will evict her. She was not alone for a day - all the time her friends were in the apartment, who flocked from everywhere, and there were strangers from the street ... Therefore, they disappeared, jewelry was stolen ...

When asked if Victoria loved her mother Galina Brezhneva, a few weeks before her death, she answered this way: “I loved my childhood idea of ​​​​her. My mother and I were strangers and different people, we rarely saw each other. I had a different life."

About daughter

Victoria Filippova told how their family was persecuted in the "Gorbachev" times.

I exchanged my apartment for two small ones: for myself and my daughter, I did not receive my part of the money. It was "Gorbachev's time". And no one stood up. Why was it us, grandchildren, to poison? We were not in politics, the country was not plundered, "we did not drink the rivers." We have fallen under the millstones of politics. They poisoned us, and with us our children. For example, my Galya was not accepted into the Komsomol, they threw us out of all clinics, from everywhere. In the end, I was laid off - kicked out of the State Committee for Publishing. When Boris Nikolayevich came, it became easier...

For some time, Victoria Filippova's daughter lived on the street - she spent the night on playgrounds in the summer, in the porches in the winter. The mother placed her daughter Galina (the girl was named after Galina Brezhneva) in a psychiatric hospital. She said that there were indications for this.

In recent years, mother and daughter have reconciled. Shortly before her death, Victoria Filippova gave her daughter five thousand rubles for the New Year ... Victoria Filippova did not have grandchildren - her only daughter did not give birth to heirs. From all relatives, Brezhnev's granddaughter hid her diagnosis.

Brezhnev's great-granddaughter Galina, whose biography will be considered in this article, is a woman with an incredibly tragic fate. Being the favorite of her famous great-grandfather, she grew up in love and luxury from an early age. Surrounding, looking at Check mark, were convinced that she was destined for a happy future. They couldn't imagine how wrong they were. Instead of a prosperous life, Brezhnev's great-granddaughter was destined to learn from her own experience what the betrayal of her own mother, poverty and a psychiatric hospital are.

Childhood and youth
Galina Mikhailovna Filippova was born in Moscow on March 14, 1973. Her mother was the granddaughter of the Secretary General of the USSR Leonid Brezhnev Victoria Evgenievna Milayeva. The baby's father was the banker Mikhail Filippov. When the girl was 5 years old, her parents divorced. Soon her stepfather Gennady Varakuta appeared. He treated the girl very well and raised her as if she were his real daughter. For some time, Victoria lived with her new husband in love and harmony, but years later they started having problems that led to a divorce.

Brezhnev's great-granddaughter Galina from early childhood was surrounded by care and affection. At home, her personal nanny Nina Ivanovna looked after her. Galya studied at an elite Moscow school with an English bias, after graduation she entered the philological faculty of Moscow State University. Classmates and classmates remembered her as a capricious and wayward young lady.

Work days
After receiving a diploma of higher education, her stepfather arranged for Galina to work as a secretary in one of the Moscow firms. The girl quickly got tired of answering phone calls, maintaining documentation and preparing coffee for the boss. She went to work without much zeal, and when the company began to cut staff, she quit.

Personal life
Until the age of 25, Brezhnev's great-granddaughter remained unmarried. The girl's biography changed after her mother found her a groom through a wedding agency. The young man's name was Oleg Dubinsky, he worked as an engineer and, according to Victoria Evgenievna, was quite suitable for her daughter. Galina did not resist the will of her mother and agreed to marry. The wedding of the great-granddaughter of Leonid Ilyich took place in 1998 and passed without much luxury.

The joint life of the young spouses did not work out from the very beginning, and a year after the marriage they filed for divorce. But the relationship between Galina and Oleg did not end there. Soon after the breakup, they reconciled and lived for another 4 years in a civil marriage. Unfortunately, the woman never managed to know maternal happiness. Tired of regular quarrels, the couple decided to finally leave. After that, Brezhnev's great-granddaughter Galina was left alone. From her marriage to Dubinsky, she received only a stamp in her passport. Oleg was much more fortunate: living together with a close relative of the former Secretary General of the USSR brought him a promotion, a summer house and a personal car.

First treatment in a psychiatric hospital
Finally parting with her husband, Galya Filippova returned to her mother. Because of the vicissitudes of life, she began to drink, which Victoria Evgenievna really did not like. To save her daughter from addiction, her mother sent her for treatment to the Kashchenko Psychiatric Hospital. So Galya, at the age of 28, found herself in an institution for the mentally ill for the first time. While she was undergoing treatment, Victoria Evgenievna became entangled in real estate transactions and was left without two expensive apartments belonging to her. Finding herself without a roof over her head, she went to live with her fiancé in the Moscow region. For all the time while Galya was being treated, her mother never visited her.

homeless life
Leaving the hospital, the great-granddaughter of Leonid Ilyich turned out to be useless to anyone. Left without an apartment, she began to wander. For almost a year, Filippova wandered through the Moscow gateways, getting her own food in garbage cans. During the summer, she lived behind garages near the Tretyakov Gallery. In winter, Galina spent the night in wooden houses for children located in the yards.
Second time in Kashchenko
The appearance of the woman has changed beyond recognition. She was emaciated, without teeth, with her head shaved baldly (so as not to get lice), she bore little resemblance to the spoiled girl she once was. At 33, homeless Galina went to warm herself in the entrance of her ex-husband's house. The mother-in-law did not recognize her daughter-in-law sleeping on the stairwell and called an ambulance for her. The paramedics who arrived again took the woman to Kashchenko.

At first, none of the doctors believed that Galina Filippova, standing in front of them, was Brezhnev's great-granddaughter. Only after she gave the head of the department the telephone number of her nanny and she recognized her as her pupil, did the attitude towards the woman change. It was clear that she had nothing to do in a psychiatric hospital, but the doctors understood that there was nowhere for the unfortunate woman to go, so they allowed her to stay with them for a while. Galya swept, mopped the floors, helped deliver meals. All the medical staff treated her well, but no one could keep the woman permanently in the hospital. In order not to doom the unfortunate life to a homeless life, the manager helped her formalize her disability and placed her in a boarding school for mentally ill people.

Galina Filippova Brezhnev's great granddaughter

The second time Brezhnev's great-granddaughter Galina spent 7 years in a mental hospital. The biography of this woman became known to the public only 2 years ago, when presenter Andrey Malakhov spoke about her in his program Let them talk. For all the time that Galya was homeless and was in a lunatic asylum, her mother did not remember her. The woman wrote letters to her, begged to take her to her, but all her requests remained unanswered. The banker Mikhail Filippov, a banker living in Malta, did not want to help his daughter either. After breaking up with Victoria, the man married again, and the fate of his daughter from his first marriage did not bother him much. The only person who remembered Gala was her old nanny. From her, the great-granddaughter of the Secretary General of the USSR occasionally received letters and parcels with gifts.
unexpected help
It is not known how the fate of Galina Filippova would have developed if the circus artists Alexander and Natalya Milaev, half-brother and sister of Victoria Evgenievna, had not learned about her misadventures. They lived in the USA for many years and did not know what fate befell their niece. Returning to Russia, the Milayevs decided to help Galina. They ensured that Brezhnev's great-granddaughter underwent psychiatric examinations, as a result of which she was recognized as fully sane and capable. Relatives helped the woman get new documents and began to look for kind people who could provide her with housing.

Expensive gift
In order for her niece to have her own apartment, Natalya Milayeva agreed to speak on television, where she spoke about the tragic life of Galina to the whole country. Her efforts were crowned with success: there were wealthy people who were touched by the story of Brezhnev's great-granddaughter. They bought Filippova a one-room apartment in Zvenigorod near Moscow, where she moved in 2014. Finding a job remains a problem for a woman, because she does not know how to do anything. However, as Galina said in one of her few interviews, she is ready to work even as a cleaner, because the pension of 14 thousand rubles that the state pays her is only enough to pay for utilities, cigarettes and coffee
