TELEGRAM FOUNDER FATHERED 100+ KIDS

In a revelation that has left traditional values reeling, Pavel Durov—the enigmatic billionaire founder of Telegram—has announced he’ll divide his vast fortune among more than 100 children he has fathered, many of them through anonymous sperm donation. In an interview with France’s Le Point, the reclusive tech mogul shrugged off the concept of family rooted in marriage and commitment, stating that every child he biologically helped create deserves an equal share of his estate. Durov, who has six children with three different partners, proudly declared he sees no difference between them and the dozens born from donations made over 15 years, citing a doctor’s encouragement to spread his “high-quality donor material.” As he champions a radically non-traditional legacy, critics say Durov's philosophy reflects a growing disregard for the nuclear family and the responsibilities that come with fatherhood—a stark symbol of modern elitist detachment from timeless family principles.
