“Mikhail Mikhailovich was seriously ill for a long time. He suffered greatly in lately, but was the favorite of all doctors. With him any doctor had romantic story. Each doctor tried to get him back on his feet and hand him over to another. It’s just that everything came together in one knot: cardiovascular diseases, he was hypertensive... Every person has life stage, and then the Lord calls him. He is a spiritual man, we did everything right, as it should be in the Christian faith. He left calmly and freely, everyone loved him so much,” said Roxana Rubenovna.

“My relationship with Konstantin was on the wane, the marriage existed more as a cover. The situation was absolutely harmonious. This is great patience, this is diplomacy, support. We got divorced within a month. Mikhail Mikhailovich’s wife was also ready for divorce. We didn't do anything bad to anyone. We didn’t injure anyone, we did it with God’s help,” the singer noted.

The performances, of course, were not cancelled,” Babayan said.
The singer shared that she had a warm and friendly relationship with Mikhail Mikhailovich’s only heir, Maria Budenna. “Mania is a part of my soul. Firstly, she has an amazing husband Peter, and secondly, grandchildren Petya and Pasha. They are my family, we have always had a very organic existence. Masha is not only beautiful, but also smart,” noted Roxana Rubenovna.
Babayan explained why she could not give Mikhail Mikhailov children. According to her, work and age played a role in this issue key role. “It happened this way, after all, we met as adults, not 18-year-olds. It was necessary to transform life, to solve many problems. Mikhail Mikhailovich worked and took care of his elderly mother. He was always the only man in the family. My father died early. He has two more beautiful sisters,” Bababyan said.
In the 80s, Derzhavin and Babayan converted to Christianity and got married. Roxana Rubenovna says that she was the initiator of the ceremony. “I offered him, and he immediately agreed. The baptism took place at our home, mom and all the relatives were there. He was a very human being. I didn’t persuade him, you can’t persuade him here,” the singer emphasized...
The artist remembered the words that she said to her beloved husband when they were once again going to the hospital, not suspecting that this couple of phrases would be their last.
“Teddy bear! Everything will be fine, come on, we have to go!” – shared People's Artist Russia.
At the end of the program, Roxana Rubenovna told the TV presenter what gives her the strength to live after the departure of Mikhail Mikhailovich. “If we talk about subtle things that we cannot comprehend... After all, for God the dead are still alive. Whoever leaves our world leaves only his suits here. I think he is young and handsome there. And everything is fine with him,” Babayan concluded.

“Alas, the miracle did not happen. Recently, Derzhavin was treated in a military hospital. I was seriously ill for a very long time. He had been in the hospital since the beginning of December. The doctors did everything possible and supported as best they could. But, unfortunately, the body could no longer cope with the ailments...”, Roxana Babayan told reporters.
