Maria Mironova shared a rare family item with her fans on social media. The racket holds special value not only because of its connection to the famous artist but also due to the history it carries.  _Instagram_ Now the relic has been passed down to the actress's younger son, Fedor. The choice turned out to be symbolic: the boy is seriously engaged in tennis and trains at Rafael Nadal's academy. > "This racket belonged to our grandfather, Andrei Alexandrovich Mironov. He played with it on the last day of his life. So, this is our gift for September 1st! This is our love," Maria said.   _Instagram_ Thus, the family relic has once again found its way into the hands of someone passionate about tennis after decades. Andrei Mironov passed away in August 1987 at the age of 46. His only biological daughter, Maria, was born from Mironov's marriage to actress Ekaterina Gradova. Later, the artist married Larisa Golubkina and raised her daughter Maria Golubkina. However, Golubkina herself stated in 2024 that she considers Andrei Mironov to be her biological father.
