When Pavel stopped paying alimony of 150,000 euros, Irina filed a lawsuit.
The mother of Pavel Durov's three youngest children, Irina Bolgar, has reached out on social media for the first time in a long while. She published a video with the children and stated that the billionaire has stopped providing financial support for the family.
45-year-old Irina stated that she disagrees with Pavel's will, which plans to divide the inheritance among all biological children, with the money to be received at least in 30 years. Bolgar reminded Durov that throughout their relationship, he assured her that the children would always "be provided for" and "if something happens, they will immediately receive their inheritance."
"They cannot wait 30 years without support — neither in terms of maintenance nor in terms of inheritance protection," Irina wrote. She emphasized that Pavel has already stopped financially supporting his children and denies that they had a relationship.
"Now Pavel Durov no longer provides for the children and publicly denies that he was ever my partner — but our children remember the home and the years we lived as a family."
Bolgar shared that in 2023, she and the children had to suddenly move out of their home due to a lack of funds. At that time, Irina moved into the first available apartment, "so that the children had a roof over their heads." For a while, they had no furniture, and Durov's children had to sleep on inflatable mattresses on the floor. The family still lives in that apartment.
"The children continued to go to school, sports, and music — even when our life was falling apart. At the same time, I had to urgently update the children's documents through the courts, as their father stopped communicating with us. All financial, organizational, domestic, and legal responsibilities fell entirely on me," Irina recounted.
Let us remind you that Irina Bolgar is raising three children from billionaire and Telegram founder Pavel Durov: eight-year-old Daniel, seven-year-old David, and 11-year-old daughter Leah. She first came to public attention last summer when she contacted Forbes to correct the information about the number of Pavel Durov's children from two to five. When Durov stopped paying alimony of 150,000 euros, Irina filed a lawsuit against him for violence against one of the children. Durov's representatives denied the allegations and claimed that Bolgar was spending the alimony on herself, which is why the payments were stopped. Soon, Irina stated that Durov had been deprived of parental rights, but the alimony court cases continue.
41-year-old Pavel Durov has a total of six officially recognized children. A son and daughter from his ex-wife Daria Bondarenko, three from Irina Bolgar, and a child from erotic model Diana Bako. Additionally, Durov claims to be the biological father of over 100 children from 12 countries around the world, as he became a sperm donor.
Durov is currently in a relationship with Yulia Vavilova, who lost their child last year due to stress from the billionaire's arrest in France.
