In the spring of 2025, opera diva Aida Garifullina and Alexey Vorobyov secretly registered their marriage at the Griboyedovsky Registry Office in Moscow. Information about the wedding quickly leaked online, and now fans are observing the couple's family idyll. Currently, the spouses not only share touching everyday moments but also work together, occupying mentor chairs on the show "The Voice. Kids."

On September 30, Aida Garifullina will turn 39. Let's recall how her life unfolded before meeting Alexey.

Childhood and Youth

Aida was born in Kazan into a musical family: her mother, Lyailya, was a choir conductor, and her father, Emil, was a businessman. Aida began singing at the age of five, and at 13, she debuted with the Republic of Tatarstan Orchestra in the Tchaikovsky Concert Hall. A year later, Garifullina received a scholarship from the Shalyapin Foundation as the owner of "Best Voice of the Year" in the academic vocal category.

In 2005, Aida won a grant from the Mayor of Kazan to study in Germany and entered the University of Music Nuremberg. In 2007, she continued her studies at the prestigious Vienna Conservatory. Her foreign education provided Aida with a strong foundation in vocal performance, stagecraft, and cultural knowledge.

In 2009, the rising star debuted before the European public in Mozart's opera "Così fan tutte." Three years later, she performed at the Arena di Verona with a part from Charles Gounod's opera "Romeo and Juliet." During the same period, Garifullina met opera singer and conductor Plácido Domingo and participated in the national selection for "Eurovision-2012" alongside Timati.

A Dream Career

A real breakthrough occurred in 2013 when Aida became a laureate of the "Operalia" competition, organized by Plácido Domingo. The victory opened doors for her to the Vienna and Paris Operas, the Metropolitan Opera, La Scala, and the Mariinsky Theatre. In the same year, Aida received the title of Honored Artist of the Republic of Tatarstan and sang a duet with the legendary Italian performer Andrea Bocelli at a charity gala concert.

Subsequently, the star performed as a soloist at the Vienna State Opera, and appeared in Kazan, Seoul, and St. Petersburg. The opera diva also starred in the British film "Florence Foster Jenkins" with Meryl Streep, Hugh Grant, Simon Helberg, and Rebecca Ferguson.

First Public Relationships and Motherhood

Little is known about Aida Garifullina's romantic relationships before Alexey Vorobyov. In 2016, she was rumored to be dating tennis player Marat Safin. In June 2016, Aida posted a photo with the former world number one on her blog, captioning it: "Sweet moments in St. Petersburg." Safin only commented on their connection once: "I don't want to say anything about Aida at all. I'm afraid we'll be jinxed. I'll just say that she is the most charming, charismatic, talented, intelligent, and beautiful. She possesses all the qualities an ideal woman can have."

In the same year, Aida gave birth to a daughter, whom she named Olivia. The girl's father's name was never disclosed.

"Fantastika" with Alexey Vorobyov

Aida's relationship with Alexey Vorobyov likely began in the winter of 2024. They met on the show "Fantastika," where the singer performed, and the actor judged the participants. The couple skillfully hid their romance, not appearing together in public.

In February 2025, Alexey announced his readiness to bid farewell to bachelorhood, describing the qualities of an ideal chosen one: "I wonder if I should get married? I agree, it's certainly a questionable event, and it brings more problems than joy, but it will definitely add fun. I'm looking for a bride: smart, beautiful, preferably talented, but this point is not mandatory — I have enough talent for ten people myself. Mileage is variable, everyone's is twisted anyway, in the original body, without restyling, tuning, or body kit." Many considered this a joke, but in May 2025, it became known that the musician had married. Perhaps Alexey had known the opera diva for a long time, and the lovers simply did not want to publicize their relationship.

Happiness Loves Silence

The couple registered their marriage at the Griboyedovsky Registry Office in the capital in a private setting. Alexey explained that they protect their feelings from prying eyes: "If a person finds a real treasure, they don't post a photo online at that moment — look, I have a treasure! They keep it for themselves, it's theirs."

Love, Filming, and Tours

After the wedding, Aida continued to tour Europe, the USA, and Asia, publishing photos from Moscow, London, Vienna, and Milan on her blog. Plácido Domingo, Kent Nagano, and Andrea Bocelli accompanied her in the pictures.

Meanwhile, Alexey was filming movies and recording songs. One of his latest projects is Viktor Dement's film "More Than Football," where Vorobyov played the main role and wrote the soundtrack. Aida came to support her husband at the screening but stayed backstage. Soon, the veil of secrecy finally fell: the couple became hosts of "Intervision-2025," and on social media, they eagerly published photos from their family life, where the artist brilliantly coped with the role of Olivia's father.
