Telegram Owner’s Ex-Lover Wants A Part Of The Company In a New Law Suit

A woman has emerged claiming to be Pavel Durov’s mistress and the mother of his three children. Durov is the billionaire CEO of Telegram Messenger LLP – the owner of the social media messaging Telegram app who was recently arrested in France.

Although Irina Bolgar, is not married to Mr. Durov, she feels she is entitled to own part of Telegram. Ms Bolgar claims she and Durov met in 2012 and had their three children between 2013 and 2017. She lived with her children in St Petersburg, Russia, but later moved to Dubai in 2018 to be with Durov. She was however denied a residence permit in the UAE in 2020, so moved to Switzerland where she now lives with her three children.

Ms. Bolgar claims that while all significant family assets were registered in Durov’s name, she had access to them through agreements and powers of attorney, which however did not fully protect her rights and interests. 

Durov has not expressly admitted to any spousal relationship with Ms. Bolgar let alone being the father of her children but acknowledged that he has been a sperm donor and have over 100 biological children around the world. 

Durov Pavel’s Telegram app is worth over $5 billion

Ms Bolgar has filed several lawsuits against Durov, accusing him of failing to pay child support and of serious acts of violence against their son.

Mr Durov is under investigation in France for allegedly allowing his platform to be used for illicit activities including drug trafficking and the distribution of child sexual abuse images. He denies those charges.

His home country, Russia, believes he’s being targeted because he refused to collaborate with Western intelligence agencies to provide data on users deemed of interest to their governments.
