The girl was 1.5 years old when she was taken from her mother, according to an anonymous report. Oksana remembers this episode of her life with pain. At that time, her financial situation was so sad that sometimes there was nothing to eat, but she loved the girl and did not want to give it away.
“What this guardianship just couldn’t do, they sent the narcological service, the teaching staff, they just harassed me at night. They were looking for an excuse to pick her up. I didn’t have a single driving related to alcohol. They come and ask, “How old is your daughter? She doesn’t walk, then we pick her up, “Ivanova recalled.
First, the child was taken away for a year so that the young mother could get back on her feet. All this time, Oksana went to the children’s home, where the nannies showed her the baby in the window for a small fee. One day she came and was told that the girl had been taken into a family. All these years Oksana was looking for Julia. She hired a lawyer, but he said that the case was too complicated and there was no way to finish it.
The singer decided to admit her pain to the whole country – in 2022, during an appearance on the “Songs from the Heart” program of the Russia-1 channel, she said that she was looking for her daughter. A year later, Julia was found. It turned out that he lives in Lipetsk under a different surname. The girl suspected that something was being hidden from her, but she only found out the truth at the age of 17. Then her father showed her the documents and said he was their receptionist.
The meeting of mother and daughter was arranged in the studio of the Malakhov program. Julia burst into tears and hugged her daughter at the long-awaited meeting. “I felt he was somewhere nearby. Either Yelets or Lipetsk, in extreme cases, Voronezh, “said the performer of the song “Russian Soul” on the air.
Oksana said that she prayed to the Holy Matrona and believed that one day she would find a child. Every year she celebrated Julia’s birthday – she set the table, invited friends and relatives, baked a cake. “I reproached myself: what right do you have to sing, to live, to smile, to laugh? After all, you don’t know where your child is, “said the chansonnier with tears.
According to Julia, she wasn’t too surprised when her parents revealed the truth to her. “I reacted normally, but they cried, they said: “Julia, we love you, we will not survive if you go to your biological mother.” I think that everything happens in life, not everything goes according to plan, as we want, “said the girl.
In recent years, Julia had scandals with foster parents. According to her, they started drinking. Mom blamed her for having bad genes, and Dad even raised his hand against her. “I tried to speak calmly to my mother, because when you shout, dialogue doesn’t work. One day my father slapped me in the face and shouted, “There you are, you ungrateful creature.” I had a panic attack, I was suffocating… I forgive them, I learned to push those people away from me, “said the girl.
When Yulia was 18 years old, she decided to leave her foster family and live separately with her boyfriend. During the broadcast of the program, biomaterial was taken from Yulia and Oksana for a DNA test. At the end of the program, the expert said that the probability of their relationship is 99 percent. “I will not let my daughter go anywhere else,” assured Ivanova.
