Katya Lel has been happily married to Igor Kuznetsov for a long time. The couple brings up a common daughter Emilia, who turned ten this year. Star mom is happy to share photos of the girl.
A few years ago, fans claimed that Emilia was an exact copy of the singer’s husband. We know who the heiress of the singer looks like today, whether her mother’s features appeared in her or if she’s still her father’s daughter, we learn further.
Ekaterina Chuprinina
In 1974, in the small town of the Kabardino-Balkarian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, a girl Katya was born in the Chuprinin family. At the age of three, a piano appeared in the house. The instrument was purchased for the musical lessons of the older sister, but the younger one did not lag behind. One of the girls was playing, and the other was singing along.
An example of a sister brought Katya to a music school. The hardworking baby mastered the piano and choral conducting at the same time. After graduation, the future star entered the music school, and then began to study at the North Caucasus Institute of Arts. Ahead of the girl was the Gnesins Academy, the Musical Start-94 contest and the Lev Leshchenko Theater, where Ekaterina worked for three years.

After receiving a diploma from the Russian Academy of Music, it was time to move on. For a solo career, as the future star decided, a sonorous name is needed. In 1998, the girl took the pseudonym Lel, and in 2000 officially changed her name.
Love and career
At the beginning of her career, Katya Lel met her soul mate. It turned out to be producer Alexander Volkov, who was twice as senior as the girl. The man not only managed to build a lasting relationship with the young provincial, but also made her a star. However, an obstacle to a happy family life was the reluctance of the producer to divorce his first wife. So, after suffering for several years, the girl decided to break off relations with Volkov. The difficulty was the copyright for some of the singer’s songs. The separation was followed by a lengthy lawsuit, followed by a creative tandem with Maxim Fadeev, who brought the star to a new round of popularity.
