Perhaps, to say that Vladimir Zhirinovsky is the brightest and most outstanding personality in the Russian political arena is to say nothing. This man, thanks to his statement, has long become famous far beyond the borders of Russia and the CIS.

Which nicknames and titles Vladimir Volfovich has not received in his entire political career: from an inadequate clown to a gray eminence. Some believe that he is saying impossible nonsense and absurd things, thus trying to draw attention to his LDPR party. Others, on the contrary, believe that not everything is so simple, and in fact, the government of the country speaks through the mouth of Zhirinovsky, since the top leadership cannot afford to express many things directly. But Vladimir Zhirinovsky can. But people close to the circles of power or interested in politics are interested in such questions.

Ordinary viewers who witness bright performances, as a rule, are interested in completely different questions. Their attention is occupied by the personal life of a politician, many are concerned about the question ofabout who his wife is and how they live, what Zhirinovsky's children do and how their fate turned out.

The brawler's wife

Watching the speeches of the leader of the Liberal Democratic Party on TV, sometimes one wonders how one can live with such a loud person who loves to raise his voice and speak out sharply in everyday life and how he can be kept close by every day. Vladimir Volfovich, at first glance, can give the impression of a quick-tempered and slightly unbalanced man. But there was a woman who was able to go hand in hand with him for decades. This is the only official wife of Zhirinovsky - Galina Lebedeva.

Their marriage and relationship with a stretch can be called easy and cloudless, but despite any hardships, Galina remains a faithful companion and companion of her husband for many years.

History of dating and starting a family

This couple met at a fairly young age, when they were both in a summer holiday camp. They say that Galina immediately interested Vladimir. She was quite an interesting slender brunette, a student of the biological faculty of Moscow State University. For almost three years, there were just friendly relations between young people, while all the time Zhirinovsky courted Galina very gallantly. Three years after their first meeting, in 1970, Vladimir made a marriage proposal to the girl, which she accepted. They played their wedding in 1971. And exactly one year later, in 1972, the Zhirinovsky family replenished - their son Igor was born.

Irregular marriage

The relationship in this married couple is difficult to nameideally exemplary, but, despite all the difficulties, the couple have been living together for almost 45 years. In their life together there was a period of divorce, and this happened in 1978. Vladimir and Galina got back together in 1985, and since then they have never parted. Despite the fact that the couple did not officially formalize their relationship again, on the eve of their silver wedding, as proof of warm feelings and mutual devotion, they got married in the church.

Dubious divorce

It would seem that today you will not surprise anyone with a civil marriage. People who love each other do not have to prove their feelings in the registry office. But in the case of Vladimir Zhirinovsky and Galina Lebedeva, things are not so simple.

In a certain period of time, the press discussed the topic that it is beneficial for Vladimir Volfovich to live with his wife unofficially, because then he may not enter her income in his family's declaration. And since Zhirinovsky's wife is by no means an ordinary woman, this state of affairs is only to their advantage.

A true friend is not just a biologist

Lebedev is a biologist by profession, works at the Institute of Virology of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences and has a Ph. D. She studies the problems of HIV infection. But, despite the relatively modest income of a researcher, Galina is the owner of several country residences, Moscow apartments and seven expensive cars.

Also, Lebedeva is engaged in active social activities. She becamethe founder of the LDPR Women's Association, which solves various humanitarian issues.

Zhirinovsky: children and grandchildren

In the marriage with Galina, the politician had one son - Igor Lebedev. Zhirinovsky and his wife at one time gave the boy his mother's surname on purpose, so that the shadow of his father would not interfere with his life. Today, Vladimir Volfovich is proud of his offspring, because, as an adult, he fully supported the ideas of his father and continued his work.

Just like his father, Igor was attracted to jurisprudence. In 1996, he quite successfully graduated from the law academy in Moscow. Lebedev has long been a member of the LDPR party and has made a good political career in a few years:

• was an assistant to a deputy of the State Duma;
• held the position of an expert specialist in the apparatus of the LDPR faction;
• appointed Advisor to the Minister of Labor of the Russian Federation;
• was elected to the State Duma in 1999, 2003, 2007, 2001.

Based on this track record, we can conclude that Igor Vladimirovich's political career has developed quite successfully, however, just like his personal life.

Lebedev's wife's name is Lyudmila, and not much information is known about her. In his interviews, Igor does not like to answer questions about his wife, in all likelihood, protecting her from the annoying attention of the press. It is only known that young people have known each other almost since childhood. In 1998, their twin sons were born: Alexander and Sergey. Igor says that he really wanted to name one of them inhonor of his father - Vladimir, but Zhirinovsky dissuaded him from this idea. Today, both brothers are students of the prestigious boarding house at Moscow State University.

Their grandfather admits that, unfortunately, he communicates with his grandchildren very rarely, at best, once a month, because he is sorely lacking time for everything.

Igor Lebedev in one of his interviews confirmed that the grandfather meets his grandchildren really very rarely, at best he congratulates them on the phone on their birthday. Basically, grandmothers pay attention to Alexander and Sergey, who have much more free time than Vladimir Volfovich. But there are other children of Zhirinovsky who are worth talking about.

A relative from Ossetia

Despite the seemingly not quite standard, but understandable to many, the married life of a politician, it turned out that not all Zhirinovsky's children were born with his official wife Galina. And for the first time this became known in 1995. It was then that Vladimir brought a 9-year-old child to one of the local channels and told everyone that this was his son. The boy's name was Oleg, and the politician publicly admitted that he was his own father.

The story of the boy's birth became known to the masses a little later. It turned out that Zhirinovsky met Oleg's mother, Ossetian Zhanna Gazdarova, in Cuba, where the woman worked at that time. Zhanna was a very bright and beautiful Caucasian girl. A stormy and passionate romance began almost immediately between her and the politician.

Soon a couple in lovereturned to Moscow, where Oleg was born. Zhanna decided to send him to be raised by her mother, who lived in the small village of Chikola in North Ossetia. It was there that Oleg's entire childhood passed, where his grandmother, Rahimat Kardanova, took care of his full upbringing.

How the father introduced his son to the whole country

At the age of 9 he met his own father. It is not known how Galina Lebedeva took this news, but the politician himself publicly recognized his son. And he did it publicly, bringing the boy with him to record the broadcast of one of the central TV channels. After leaving school, Oleg moved to Moscow to his mother. He entered Moscow State University and successfully completed his studies.

Son's wedding, which took place without the presence of his father

The press again sharply remembered and started talking about the illegitimate son of a State Duma deputy when Oleg Gazdarov turned 26 years old. It was at this age that he decided to get married. His chosen one was an Ossetian - Madina Batyrova, whom he met at Moscow State University. The wedding attracted the attention of journalists, as it was celebrated on a special scale. The celebration took place in the Ossetian city of Digor. The most prestigious restaurant "Alcor" was reserved for the celebration, the employees of which admit that they have not seen such a luxurious event in the entire history of the establishment. According to the information provided at various forums, about 800 guests attended the celebration. The cost of the bride's dress was estimated at about 200 thousand rubles. There are also rumors that rings for young people were not purchased anywhere, butat Tiffany's. The rite of redemption of the bride took place without undue stinginess on the part of the groom. In general, everything spoke of luxury and the complete prosperity of the newlyweds.

It was no secret to anyone that Vladimir Volfovich took over all the expenses for organizing the celebration. Naturally, all the assembled relatives, and, of course, the newlyweds themselves, were very much looking forward to the arrival of the famous father of the groom. But the meeting never happened. Given the level of daily workload of Zhirinovsky, it is quite possible that he really did not have time to attend this event, but it is quite possible that he did not consider it necessary to be there, believing that his father's duty was fully paid by paying all expenses.

Mysterious daughter Anastasia

When wondering how many children Vladimir Zhirinovsky has, one should not think that everything was limited to two recognized sons. In his numerous interviews, Vladimir has repeatedly said that he also has an illegitimate daughter. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to find detailed information about this girl in open sources. Perhaps she herself does not want to advertise her status as an illegitimate child. According to Zhirinovsky himself, it is only known that her name is Anastasia. In the birth certificate, her patronymic is listed in accordance with the biological father, that is, Vladimirovna. And the name of Zhirinovsky's daughter is mother's - Petrova.

The story of Nastya's birth is not advertised in detail. At the same time, Vladimir Volfovich says that if Russian laws allowed him to have several wives, he would have formalized relations with Nastina long agomother, and Zhirinovsky's daughter herself would have bore his last name for a long time.

Interesting bills of a charismatic politician

In a certain period of time, Vladimir Volfovich actively promoted one bill in the State Duma. He was supposed to allow Russian men to have several official wives and write down all the children born in these relationships. Of course, many immediately associated this with the fact that not all of Zhirinovsky's children were born in a legal marriage.

You can relate to his political activities as a Liberal Democrat in different ways, you can not like his often eccentric speeches and scandalous statements, but, on the contrary, you can watch with great interest. But regardless of all factors, Vladimir Volfovich should be given undoubted credit in one thing - he never abandoned his children born out of wedlock with Galina Lebedeva. It is a pity that the general public, most likely, will never know how the official Zhirinovsky family relates to such public confessions of the father and spouse.
