Biography and personal life of Diana Gurtskaya
The biography and personal life of Diana Gurtskaya is not just a short story about a blind girl who is constantly in need of care, it is something exciting and impressive.
The singer was born into a Georgian family on July 2, 1978. The singer has a large family: Diana Gurtskaya’s father is Guda Gurtskaya, a miner, her mother is Zaira Gurtskaya, a school teacher, brother is Dzhambul Gurtskaya, brother is Robert Gurtskaya, sister is Eliso Gurtskaya.
The parents did not immediately find out that Diana was born blind; only after a small incident, when they went to the hospital, congenital blindness was discovered. Everyone was dumbfounded, but no one was going to change their attitude towards little Diana, but on the contrary, they did everything to make her feel the same as the other children. She was not pitied more than the others; she also received punishments for mischief.
At the age of seven, her parents decided to send Diana to study at a boarding school for blind children in the city of Tbilisi. At that moment, the girl was completely confused, because she had never parted with her parents before. She missed her family very much, but her mother always encouraged and insisted on Diana's education, which she would not be able to receive in her hometown. Diana came home for the holidays, but this, of course, was not enough. Then, she found a hobby that could distract her a little from homesickness. She began studying vocals with a teacher, and later, at the same time, studied at a music school. It was difficult, because there was no special music training for the blind. As the singer later admitted, music became her salvation.
It turned out, despite the lack of vision, the girl has excellent hearing and voice. Already at the age of 10, Diana Gurtskaya first appeared on the stage of the Philharmonic.
In 1995, Diana participated in an international song festival, the judges of which were famous and respected Russian performers such as Igor Krutoy, Lolita, Igor Nikolaev. The latter was so touched by her voice and song that he offered her cooperation, which Gurtskaya naturally accepted.
Thanks to this fateful meeting, Diana Gurtskaya began to gain popularity. Having moved to the capital, the girl entered the Gnessin School, and also studied stage acting at GITIS.
One of the first compositions that became popular was Igor Nikolaev’s song “You Are Here.” It turned out that while performing it, Gurtskaya experienced incredible pain of loss (the death of her mother).
Soon, the singer releases an album, and even later, she becomes famous, touring with famous world-class singers.
The singer did not like to talk about her personal life. It is known that lawyer Pyotr Kucherenko became her chosen one and husband.
