Where did Lesya Kafelnikova go? This question has been asked more than once by both fans and haters of the 19-year-old daughter of tennis player Yevgeny Kafelnikov. There was no answer for several months, but the other day Lesya dotted all the i's - and not just on Instagram under the next post, but in a frank interview with the Russian Tatler magazine, the heroine of the cover story of which was Lesya's February issue.

The previous year was not the easiest for the young and quite successful model: she had a row with her father, was worried about problems in her relationship with her lover, rapper Pharaoh, used alcohol, fell into depression, cut her hands - Kafelnikova spoke about all this for the first time from the pages of a glossy magazine . Some excerpts from the interview have appeared online. So, the girl admitted that she started cutting herself to get rid of mental suffering.

I remember the first cut even now.<...>I sat in my room and thought: “Why do people need feelings if they cause such pain? Why can’t we turn them off?” She disassembled the sharpener, consciously, slowly pulled out the blade and ran it over the skin. I got what I wanted: freedom from pain by punishing myself. It was like coming - only my hands were very cold,

- Lesya said.


Kafelnikova also told what helped her give up self-harm and self-flagellation in Moscow.

Once, a friend invited me to her birthday, and my dad suddenly allowed me to go alone for the first time. At this holiday I met Nikita Vernidub, Phil Gazmanov, Diana Chervichenko - golden youth. They were friendly and open, and I really liked it. We became friends on social networks and met periodically. I no longer felt like an ugly duckling. I was accepted. I even stopped cutting myself.

Dad watched with pleasure as I put the sweatshirts he hated further into the closet and took out feminine dresses and heels. I became the Alesya he wanted to see. And for this dad was ready to throw the whole world at my feet,

- Lesya said.

Another of Kafelnikova’s confessions was that she now goes to a group of anonymous drug addicts. And she started using drugs in London, at the same time meeting the rapper Pharaoh (Gleb Golubin):

When I felt bad, I smoked weed. I couldn’t get enough of the freedom that fell upon me. Then I came across the song Pharaoh, subscribed to Gleb on Instagram, and sent hearts in direct messages. We began to correspond. Dad's friends reacted negatively to our romance.

Let us remember that the romance between Lesya and the artist Pharaoh began in January last year. The couple went out together for the first time, attending the premiere of the film “The Illusion of Love” (Mal de pierres). However, their relationship was far from ideal, and the couple broke up this summer.

He asked me to pack my things and go to my mother. The pain tore me apart; there was nothing to use. I went to the bathroom and cut my hands to the bone. Then I remember in flashes,

- recalls the model.

By the way, the other day a hotel near Moscow put up for auction the bed linen on which the rapper slept on its page on the VKontakte network. Bidding began at 500 rubles, but bids quickly increased to 550 thousand rubles. However, many social network users did not take the announcement seriously and wrote the numbers as a joke. Whether anyone actually purchased Pharaoh's dirty laundry is unknown.

Yevgeny Kafelnikov’s 19-year-old daughter Alesya gave a frank interview to a glossy publication, talking about her difficult struggle with drug addiction, depression and breaking up with rapper Pharaoh. Last fall, the young model disappeared from social networks, which provoked rumors about her serious problems. It was rumored that Alesya was being treated in a psychiatric clinic and was suffering from panic attacks. A few months later, the girl decided to break the silence and talk about the difficulties she faced.

According to Alesya, she began cutting herself as a child, when she studied at a British boarding school. Kafelnikova had difficulty finding mutual language with peers. A psychologist diagnosed the daughter of a tennis player with depression and anorexia. Over time, Alesya was able to join the company of her peers - the so-called representatives of the “golden youth”. The young model’s career also began to take off. While in London, she tried drugs for the first time. At the same time, Kafelnikova met rapper Pharaoh (real name Gleb Golubin) thanks to social networks. Soon a romance began between the young people. Friends of Yevgeny Kafelnikov reacted negatively to the hobby of his heir.

“How can you judge a person without knowing him? He [Gleb Golubin] never swore at me. And I have never seen him use it. I used it myself, but Gleb didn’t know about it. Last October, my dad decided to test me for drugs. That's how he found out everything. (...) Dad couldn’t calm down, blamed Gleb for everything and drove him crazy with the phrase: “Get tested,” the model recalls.

Kafelnikova quarreled with her father and moved in with her boyfriend. The athlete blocked his daughter’s cards and took away her driver. Because of drugs and text messages to her ex-boyfriend, Alesya had problems in her relationship with Gleb.

“Everything was bad. We could not establish relations with Gleb, although we tried. The inner emptiness required immediate filling with anything: food, parties, people, adrenaline, work. When all this became boring, I started using without pause. That's when I overdosed. (...) When I woke up, there was an IV sticking out of my arm, and my grandmother and her friend were sobbing next to me. They said that they could barely pump me out, foam was coming out of my mouth,” Kafelnikova said.

Doctors diagnosed Alesya with psychosis and bipolar disorder. The girl was placed in a clinic for two months. The model was waiting for Gleb to contact her, but the young man never wrote. According to Kafelnikova, she was truly in love with her chosen one. Parting with Golubin was extremely difficult for Alesya.

During a conversation with reporters, the girl admitted that she was trying to improve relations with her father. After Yevgeny Kafelnikov tweeted about his daughter’s problems, the international modeling agency IMG, which worked with many catwalk stars, including Kate Moss, Gisele Bündchen and Miranda Kerr, turned its back on her. At one time, psychologists even feared that communication with her parent would lead Alesya to a nervous breakdown.

“My father is trying to build a relationship with me. This is difficult for both of us. We are still different people. But I am grateful to my dad for locking me in the clinic. That he didn't leave me. Paid for the treatment. The understanding that he really loves me and has always tried to protect me came in such a bizarre way. And I also say a big thank you to my mother,” said the girl

Now the girl attends groups of anonymous drug addicts. According to Alesya, the main thing is the regime. In order not to break down, the model overloads herself with work, preferring to work out until exhaustion in the gym. The daughter of Yevgeny Kafelnikov is also receiving education at the correspondence department of the Financial Academy and at the Ostankino School of Television. Next month, she and psychologists plan to organize support groups for those facing similar problems.

“I think about girls like me. Who cut themselves and use drugs. There are a lot of us who hide our pain on our sleeves. I would like to help them. (...) Now I have a chance to start life from scratch, as a different person, consciously. I have no career, no personal life. But there is no previous pain and resentment towards dad. For the first time I have me,” Alesya shared with Tatler magazine.
