Telegram Founder Divides His $17B Fortune Among His 106 Kids

Telegram co-founder Pavel Durov

Telegram co-founder Pavel Durov has revealed he’s dividing his $17.1 billion fortune among at least 106 children he claims as his own — including over 100 born through sperm donation.

In a recent interview with French outlet Le Point, the 40-year-old tech billionaire said he has six children from natural conception and has anonymously donated sperm resulting in over 100 children across 12 countries. “I make no distinction between them,” he said.

“They are all my children and will all have the same rights.” Durov noted that the children won’t access their inheritances until June 19, 2055 — 30 years from the date of the interview.
