Russian Blogger Gives Birth To Daughter With Her Stepson

A Russian blogger and weight-loss influencer has just given birth to a daughter with her stepson. Marina Balmasheva, 35, welcomed her baby girl yesterday in a maternity hospital in Krasnodar but minus the presence of the father for unknown reasons. Her newborn daughter will be the youngest of five other children who were adopted at the time she was married with her stepson’s father.

Balmasheva, who has more than half a million followers on Instagram was mother and now a romantic partner to her stepson, 21-year-old Vladimir Shavyrin. She was married to Shavyrin’s father Alexey,45, and divorced him after 10 years together. She has known Vladimir since he was seven years old.

The blogger gained her social media status after documenting her weightloss journey and has since been open about her relationship with her stepson. They have been together after her divorce and live with three of the five children she and her ex-husband adopted, Metro UK wrote.

In their story published on Daily Mail, Alexey had also accused Balmasheva of seducing his son when he came home from university. He said that he had not had a girlfriend before her and that both were not shy to have sex even while he was at home.

“I would have forgiven her cheating, if it wasn't my son. She was running to my son's bed from our bedroom when I was sleeping. After that she was coming back and lying in bed with me as if nothing had happened”, Alexey said.

She also earlier told her followers of how she went through a succession of plastic surgery treatments to make herself attractive to Vladimir.

The blogger said: “So many people tell me to use makeup - make lashes, because of my young husband. But there is one thing - he fell in love with me with all my scars from plastic surgeries, cellulite, excessive skin and personality. And I do not want to seem better than what I am.”

Apart from the plastic surgery, Balmasheva revealed that she had also insisted on a pre-nup so that she still gets to keep all her money and assets in case of divorce from her new husband.

The new mother has been quite open on social media about her relationship with her stepson and would sometimes even post controversial content such as throwback photos of herself and a very young Vladimir. She has gained much support from her followers, with some who even expressed they were glad that she had just made Alexey a grandfather.

Meanwhile, Balmasheva said Vladimir's mother - another ex-wife of Alexey's - would help them care for the baby.
