The other day, one of the richest people in Russia, Roman Abramovich, and socialite Daria Zhukova announced that they broke up after ten years life together. The couple stressed that this decision was extremely difficult for them. Nevertheless, the former lovers will continue to raise common children - three-year-old Leah and seven-year-old Aaron - and develop joint projects, which include the Garage Museum in Moscow and the New Holland Cultural Center in St. Petersburg.
REASONS FOR PARTING: POWER STRUGGLE OR NEW LOVE
The news about the separation of 50-year-old Roman and 36-year-old Daria had the effect of an exploding bomb and provoked heated discussions on the Web. Many wondered why the couple, whose relationship seemed ideal from the outside, decided to disperse. While Abramovich's fans rejoiced and made plans to win the heart of the oligarch, other Internet users put forward different versions of what happened between Abramovich and Zhukova. So, the infamous blogger Lena Miro said that the separation of the businessman and it-girl was quite expected.
“In general, nothing surprising happened. After Dasha Zhukova got caught with a man, it was clear that there would be no further relationship. (...) Roman Abramovich, unlike a hamster, has every reason to consider himself an alpha male. In the same way as Dasha Zhukova, to think that she was not found in the garbage heap. Each of them has reason to nurture their freedoms, but none of them are satisfied with the freedom of a partner, ”the star of the blogosphere believes.
Miro believes that their characters influenced the separation of the spouses. Being leaders by nature, Daria and Roman could hardly put up with the same demanding person nearby. “Both Abramovich and Zhukova need betas, and even scales,” Lena concluded.
Singer Natalya Shturm, with whom Roman Abramovich was once in love, believes that the vacant position of the second half of the oligarch is already filled. It is for this purpose that the entrepreneur and it-girl decided to announce their separation.
“For the public, they “dotted the i’s for something. For what? Known to them alone. Whether it will be an official marriage or Dasha, or Roman Arkadievich, or a new union will be announced. So that it does not look like dirt, they are forced to announce that everything is over, ”Sturm commented.
The names of alleged lovers of Roman Abramovich regularly pop up on the Web. Who is not called the new chosen one of a businessman. So, some tipped the oligarch as his wife to accept the Mariinsky Theater Diana Vishneva. A couple of years ago, Roman attended her private dinner alone, and then undertook to sponsor a ballerina project. Another possible contender for the role of the entrepreneur's companion is it-girl Nadezhda Obolentseva. Most recently, she divorced Airat Iskhakov, so she is ready to accept Abramovich's courtship.
Blogger and secular columnist Bozena Rynska believes that rumors about Roman Abramovich's passion for the ex-wife of a wealthy oligarch are not true.
"I do not know for sure. But definitely not with Nadia Obolentseva, ”the journalist answered the question about the new romance of the owner of the Chelsea club with these words.
At the same time, Rynska claims that she knows the identity of Zhukova's chosen one, with whom she has been dating for about three months now. However, the infamous blogger refused to declassify the second half of the gallery owner. “I won’t tell and don’t ask,” the woman shared on Facebook.
In the comments to Bozena's post, a whole discussion unfolded. Rynski's followers put forward their assumptions about who Zhukova was dating. However, the blogger was relentless and continued to remain silent, only occasionally answering questions from subscribers. So, according to the woman, the ex-lover of Roman Abramovich definitely does not meet with Emmanuel Macron or anyone from the family of Donald Trump.
In addition, Bozena Rynska denies that Daria Zhukova is allegedly happy in a relationship with Heidi Klum's ex-boyfriend Vito Schnabel, with whom an Italian tabloid photographed her. By the way, then a serious scandal erupted. As a result, representatives of Abramovich said that the pictures were "fake" and succeeded in removing them from the publication's website. Rynska claims that Zhukova is dating a young and attractive man.
“Not him at all. He's handsome and nosy. And that bastard is kinda creepy. He is like a young Abramovich, but taller and more beautiful, ”Bozena commented on the resonant footage.
BILLION SECTION
A Forbes magazine source claims that there is no talk of any official divorce between Abramovich and Zhukova yet. The same, according to an insider, applies to compensation for Zhukova. Whether this is so is not known for certain.
However, there is also a point of view that Roman Abramovich and Daria Zhukova divorced in the spring, they were simply in no hurry to announce a change in marital status. If this information is true, then there will definitely not be a division of jointly acquired property. However, lawyer Alexander Dobrovinsky, who specializes in the separation of the rich and famous, believes that Roman and Daria discussed all issues when they got married.
“I think these are smart people and they certainly did it. All documents are signed about what will happen if the couple breaks up. So don't wait for any process. The crowd will not get discussion, because there will be no process,” Dobrovinsky told reporters.
Yury Loza, a specialist in all matters, is worried about which of the spouses will get Chelsea. The artist is worried about the future of the football club.
“If he is, then even more or less. If she is, then it will probably be interesting. A woman at the helm of a football team? For me, this spectacle is not very clear. Chelsea is a good football club. Still, Abramovich is interested in football: he goes to matches, makes some decisions, participates in the life of the club. If Chelsea goes to her, then it will be a burden for her, ”said the musician.
Everything else, the artist emphasized, is of little interest to him. As for the separation of Roman and Daria, the man considers this to be quite normal. “The rich get divorced, the poor get divorced,” Vine is quoted by journalists.
In connection with the sensational statement about the separation of Roman Abramovich and Daria Zhukova, the press also recalled the man's previous divorce. Then the amount of compensation that Irina received amounted to a record 300 million dollars. Moreover, the oligarch undertook to support five common children and gave the ex-wife four villas in the UK, an estate in West Sussex, two apartments in London and a castle in France. Now Irina is one of the most richest women Russia. Daria Zhukova, journalists say, will get (or has already got) no less.
STAR FRIENDS SUPPORT
One of the most discussed posts in the blagosfera was the recent publication of TV personality Ksenia Sobchak. The star spoke out in support loved one who is going through a tough life. Many immediately decided that we were talking about Daria Zhukova, whom the presenter has known for about twenty years.
“You have to be able to appreciate what comes into your life, enjoy what you have, and, the most difficult thing, let go when everything ends ... Today I am mentally with one very dear person whom I have known since childhood, a beautiful and bright woman, which has a lot of incredible discoveries and new roads ahead!” – shared Xenia in the microblog.
According to Alexander Dobrovinsky, he knows who initiated the breakup, but does not plan to share this information with the press. The lawyer stressed that Zhukova and Abramovich are "very decent people" who have done a lot for the public good. The lawyer defended the former lovers from the attacks of ill-wishers and urged them to leave their private life alone.
“Look what Dasha and Roman Arkadyevich did for art! Look what Roman Abramovich has done for our sport, it's amazing! He took over in his most difficult moments. Look what Chukotka! And what a golf club he built, which is completely subsidized, like most of the things he does. How much money he has invested in Chelsea football and how much joy it brings to the fans,” said Dobrovinsky.
Roman Abramovich's first love, singer Natalya Shturm, also has a very good opinion of the entrepreneur and his former darling. According to the performer of the hit "School Romance", the oligarch and socialite never boasted of their wealth. Such behavior, the artist notes, is worthy of respect.
"These were beautiful relationship. I really liked Dasha in this pair. She never stuck out her well-being, did not show off, did not suit the hype. She gave birth to two children from a beloved man. Roman Abramovich never made scandals. He is a good person. As good as he was as a child, so he is now. It breaks up normally, ”Sturm said.

This means that Abramovich, who has barely exchanged fifty dollars, may soon start looking for a new suitable candidate for marriage.
Third wife
The third, now ex-wife of Roman Abramovich, Daria Zhukova, is 36 years old. She is an art critic, a gallery owner and, thanks to her, it should be noted, excellent taste and her husband's money, she became a co-author of several bright and world-class projects. This is primarily the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow and the New Holland Cultural Center in St. Petersburg.
For ten years of marriage, Daria Zhukova gave birth to her husband a couple of charming children - 8-year-old Aaron Alexander and four-year Leu. Abramovich and Zhukova have already stated that after the divorce they intend to stay in friendly relations, raise children together and continue to work on common projects.
“We ask everyone to respect our privacy during this difficult period,” Zhukova and Abramovich said in a joint statement about the upcoming divorce, the reasons for which were not reported.
Cupid's arrow
Earlier, rumors appeared on the Internet that, perhaps, a third extra intervened in the relationship between the billionaire and his wife. In mid-February, Chi magazine published photographs in which a certain lady, reminiscent of Dasha Zhukova, is kissing an art businessman. Vito Schnabel. Abramovich's press service, however, immediately denied these rumors, saying that the photos were fake.
Most likely, it will not be possible to find out what really happened there: Abramovich is not one of those who like to discuss his personal life in public, and Dasha Zhukova, as you know, is a lady with excellent taste.
Abramovich's wives
Judging by information from the media, Abramovich has never been a particular womanizer, giving more strength and passion to business projects. They say that in his youth for some time he set off in all serious ways, but this period was short-lived. The fact is that in the late 1980s, when young Roman went into the army, his bride did not wait for him (a matter of life, of course, but how she must have regretted it later ...).
After a short but stormy walk, young Abramovich suddenly married a resident of Astrakhan Olga Lysova who was slightly older than him. Together with Olga, the future billionaire traded on the market at the beginning of his business activities. The couple had no children. What is with this woman now, there is no information.
But times changed, incomes grew, and Roman Abramovich met another ... Abramovich's second wife - Irina Malandina- worked as a flight attendant, and met her future husband romantically in the sky. The couple entered into a marriage in the early 1990s, which turned out to be quite strong: they lived together for more than 17 years, until Abramovich became interested in Zhukova.
In marriage with his second wife, Abramovich had five children - two sons and three daughters. Eldest daughter the billionaire from his second marriage is now 25 years old, the youngest son is 14.
In March 2007, the couple filed for divorce in the Chukotka District Court, since at that time Roman Abramovich served as governor of the Chukotka Autonomous Region.
The former spouses peacefully agreed on the division of property and on who their five children will remain with.
It should be noted that Abramovich, apparently, was never a miser - he did not sue ex-wives, did not try to deprive children of their inheritance, but, on the contrary, kept both material and intangible presence in their lives. Apparently, he will behave in the same gentlemanly way when divorcing Zhukova.
Recall that Roman Abramovich is in the top hundred of the richest people in the world, in the top ten of the richest people in Russia and in the top three of the richest people in the UK. The billionaire firmly moved to the British Isles after leaving the post of governor of Chukotka and acquiring the Chelsea football club.
Roman Abramovich is not indifferent to beautiful yachts, luxury cars, and he also loves beautiful mansions, of which he has a lot.
He has villas in West Sussex, a luxurious penthouse in Kensington, he owns houses in France, in Belgravia, in Knightsbridge, in St. Tropez, in the elite villages of the Moscow region.
He owns the £77m Ecstasea with a pool and Turkish bath, the £60m Le Grand Bleu with a heliport and the €340m beauty Eclipse, which reaches nearly 170m in length. On board this yacht there are two helicopters with hangars and a German missile attack warning system.
Billionaire Roman Abramovich and Daria Zhukova decided to leave after 10 years of marriage. The New York Post's Page Six gossip section was the first to report the news on Monday, followed by Abramovich and Zhukova confirming it in a joint statement.
“After 10 years of being together, we have made the difficult decision to separate, but we remain close friends, parents of two wonderful children and partners in projects that started and developed together,” Abramovich’s spokesman John Mann quoted them as saying. Abramovich and Zhukova will continue their collaboration as co-founders of the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow and on the New Holland project in St. Petersburg.
Page Six recalls that journalists did not know for a long time whether Abramovich and Zhukova were officially married, until WSJ Magazine confirmed in 2014 that they met in 2005 and got married in 2008.
For Abramovich, this is the third marriage and divorce. The couple have a seven-year-old son, Aron, and a four-year-old daughter, Leia. In 2007, Abramovich divorced his wife Irina by mutual agreement, she received $ 300 million and payment for all expenses of five children. The business completely remained with Abramovich. Abramovich broke up with his first wife, Olga Lysova, after three years of marriage, concluded in 1987. Now Abramovich is in 12th place in the Forbes ranking of the richest people in Russia with $ 9.1 billion and in 139th place in the world ranking.
Foreign publications describe 50-year-old Abramovich as "the owner of the Chelsea football club", and 36-year-old Zhukova as "the wealthy daughter of a Russian oil tycoon". Her father Alexander Zhukov is a co-owner of the oil and gas company JKX Oil & Gas, terminals in the port of Ust-Luga and the Iceberry group of companies, an ice cream manufacturer.
Other precedents
The most high-profile divorce process of Russian billionaires is Dmitry Rybolovlev's seven-year divorce from his ex-wife Elena after 21 years of marriage. In 2010, Rybolovleva managed to freeze the main assets of the billionaire, after which he sold his shares in Uralkali (63%) and Silvinit (25%). In 2014, a Geneva court ordered Dmitry Rybolovlev to transfer to his ex-wife half of his fortune - $ 4.5 billion, as well as other property. However, he challenged the decision, and in June 2015 the second instance reduced the amount of payment in favor of Elena Rybolovleva to $604 million. After that, the parties entered into an agreement that completed the process.
Also in 2015, the process of division of property was completed ex-wife businessman Vladimir Potanin Natalia. She claimed 15% in the company " Norilsk Nickel". The court denied her these claims, concluding that the shares of Norilsk Nickel do not belong to the president of the company. Potanin obtained a divorce through the courts at the end of 2013. And then he filed a lawsuit for the division of property worth $ 140 million, but this list did not include any significant assets (an apartment in Moscow, four land plots, a residential building, Gazprom shares, more a dozen bills and a chapel).
