After the divorce, he stayed in Moscow, while Gulya's mother moved to Kyiv with the daughter, and married the composer Pylyp Kozytskiy. In the 1930s, Gulya married a nephew of the "people's enemy" Aleksei Pyatakov, and gave birth to a son. In 1940, she enrolled in the Hydromelioration Institute. In 1941, she enlisted in the Red Army following Operation Barbarossa and was killed during the Battle of Stalingrad. Her descendants currently reside in Kyiv. In the 1960s she was made one of the official Soviet martyrs for the Fatherland. Several objects were named in her honor. She was also the central hero of Elena Ilyina's novel "The Fourth Height".
