43-year-old Maria was almost sent to prison.

In childhood, Maria grew up without a father and for a long time did not even know that she had a brother, a famous musician. Only at the age of 12 did her mother tell her and her sister Ksenia that they were related to a well-known family.

Maria and Leonid have the same father – Nikolai, but he was practically absent from her life. The daughter of the famous musician only remembers that "some uncle came to visit"... Later, a conflict arose between the artist and the girl's mother, after which communication with the parent ceased. A few years later, when Maria turned 16, her mother invited Agutin Sr. to her birthday – it was then that the reconciliation of the close ones took place.

Soon the girl met her brother, who later supported her financially on several occasions. "It was a long journey, but I finally came to the point where I sincerely loved both my dad and mom and Lenya. And how can you not love Lenya? Because Lenya is very wise and humane," the half-sister of the vocalist admitted in one of her interviews.

But no one could have thought that Maria Agutina had been silent for years about a terrible personal drama. In her youth, she was raped, and a few years later she experienced unimaginable grief – the death of her little son, who was born with a serious heart defect. By the way, it was Leonid Agutin who paid for the expensive surgery in the USA at that time, which gave the woman hope that her child would still live...

"At 17, I was raped. At 30, I had a son with half a heart, who lived only two years. At 35, I flew to Peru to see a shaman and lived in the taiga," the sister of the performer of the hit "Barefoot Boy" confided in her personal microblog.

But that's not all – it turns out that not long ago, 43-year-old Maria was almost sent to prison. What exactly happened, the woman did not reveal. But one thing is certain – her relationship with her biological sister is now completely ruined.

"At 40, they wanted to imprison me for 17 years. The whole family abandoned me, and my biological sister sold my car and kept all the money intended for the lawyer for herself," Agutina lamented.
