For the first time during the full-scale invasion, Sofia Rotaru, the legendary People's Artist of Ukraine, shared a video online. On August 7, the star celebrated her 77th birthday and decided to show with whom and where she spent this special day.

Star celebration in the restaurant

A video appeared on Rotaru's TikTok fan account page, which immediately attracted the attention of fans. The video shows how Sofia Rotaru celebrates her 77th birthday in a restaurant in the circle of her closest people.

Among those present at the celebration were her son Ruslan Yevdokymenko, daughter-in-law Svitlana and granddaughter Sonya, who currently lives in the USA. The family sincerely congratulated the star, singing the song "Happy Birthday to you" for her.

Exciting moments from the video

"It was incredibly touching to see Sofya Mykhailivna blow out the candle on the holiday cake, " commented fans.

It is not known where exactly the celebration took place, but it is clear that it was a restaurant. The waiter brought out a festive cake with a candle, which Sofia Rotaru happily blew out.

Life abroad and a silent position

After February 24, 2022, the artist went abroad. It is known that Rotaru lives in Italy, where she recently bought a villa. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, she rarely gets in touch with her fans. The singer has suspended her concert activities and is not releasing new songs.

Regarding the war, Sofia Rotaru practically does not say anything, pretending to be silent. Only sometimes in her social networks you can see the consequences of Russian shelling or pictures with a call for peace.

Future and hopes

"We hope that Sofia Rotaru will continue to please us with her creativity and will find new ways to support Ukraine in these difficult times, " fans say.

It remains to wait for further news from the star and hope that she will return to the stage to give us her unparalleled performances again.
