  • Pavel Durov’s girlfriend suffered a miscarriage, which they believe was caused by the stress of Durov’s arrest in France.
  • Durov is facing serious criminal charges in France, including allegations of allowing illegal content on Telegram.

Pavel Durov, the founder and CEO of Telegram, is in the middle of a criminal case in France that could land him in prison for up to 20 years.

While the charges against him are grabbing the headlines, another devastating blow has rocked his personal life.

His girlfriend, Juli Vavilova, has revealed that she suffered a miscarriage, and she believes the stress surrounding Durov’s arrest played a huge role in the tragedy.

Arrest and the pregnancy news

In a post on Telegram, Vavilova narrated how everything happened. On August 24, she, Durov, and Durov’s assistant Mario were held at the airport immediately after arriving in France for hours, their phones and laptops confiscated.

She managed to contact her mom before the devices were taken away, but after that, they were cut off from the world. Eventually, Mario and Vavilova were let go, but Pavel remained in custody.

The next day, August 25, Vavilova woke up disconnected and uncertain about what was happening. At this point, neither she nor Mario had any idea what was going on with Durov.

After grabbing breakfast, they bought new phones and were hit with shocking news that Pavel was facing charges that could see him in prison for two decades.

Bloggers started spreading rumors, blaming Vavilova for Durov’s arrest and some stratight up accusing her of being a spy.

In the middle of this chaos, Vavilova felt the need to take a pregnancy test. To her shock, the result confirmed she was pregnant.

In a Parisian café, she read the test’s result, but she couldn’t share the news with anyone.

On top of everything else, police had summoned her for questioning, but her doctor advised her against going because the stress of the situation was already too much for her body in the early stages of pregnancy.

Four weeks later, Vavilova finally went in for questioning, where she spent many hours answering inquiries related to the investigation.

The tragic loss

The following month became a rollercoaster for the couple.

Vavilova focused on both her physical and mental health as she came to terms with the new reality of her pregnancy, all while supporting Durov through his legal nightmare.

Despite the stress and uncertainty, she started to enjoy her pregnancy and even regained access to her social media accounts, which she had been locked out of during Durov’s detainment.
