Star parents
The girl was born in 1988, November 25. Her mother, Daria Mikhailova, is one of the most striking actresses, who began acting in films at the age of ten. A native of Moscow, she was born in a creative family. Her father, who later emigrated to the United States, and her mother, Natalya Filippova, performed on stage.
Daria after graduating from the Shchukin school was accepted into the troupe of the Vakhtangov Theater, where she met her future husband. From 1985 to 1991, she was married to Maxim Sukhanov.

He himself was also brought up in a creative family. His grandfather once served in the Meyerhold Theater, so it is not surprising that the scene became the life of Maxim Sukhanov.
Stepfather

They met at a time when Daria was looking for an actor for the role of Mitya Karamazov. A real passion flared up between them, culminating in a marriage in 1998.
The couple did not have common children, so Vladislav took part in raising the daughter of Daria. Vasilisa Maksimovna Sukhanova could not help but love the acting profession, because before her eyes her parents and stepfather did.
