Ukrainian politicians typically try to keep their personal lives private. For example, the partner of MP Alexander Kunitsky prefers to remain in his "shadow," just like the ex-wife of the well-known businessman and TV presenter Andrey Palchevsky. They divorced back in 2012, but the divorce proceedings were quite scandalous.
"Telegraph" decided to find out what Elena Palchevskaya looks like and what is known about her. The woman has long moved abroad with her children.
The founder of the Eurolab clinic, businessman, and former Minister of Ukraine for Family, Youth, and Sports Andrey Palchevsky was officially married to the Russian Elena Palchevskaya. Initially, they lived in the Russian Federation before relocating to Ukraine.
According to his ex-wife, they began receiving threats in Russia since the late 90s, which prompted them to flee first to Spain and then to Ukraine. However, Palchevsky denies her version, stating that the move was due to several attempts on his life by competitors. The last hospitalization occurred in Kyiv, after which the businessman conceived the idea of opening his own clinic.
As for his ex-wife Elena, there is very little publicly available information about her, including photos. It is known that they were officially married for 30 years. Many sources indicate that the couple raised four children, but The Page writes that only son Andrey and daughter Anna are from Elena and Palchevsky, while two other sons—Roman and Fedor—were born from the businessman’s civil union with a woman who also hails from Russia.
Reports suggest that son Andrey runs a business in Barcelona and carries the double surname—Voronov-Palchevsky. Daughter Anna has been involved in the aviation sector.
According to recent data, ex-wife Elena Palchevskaya has been living in Spain with her children since 1998. She owns a spa in Barcelona called Ambrosia Urban Spa. However, they only divorced in 2012, and it was quite a scandalous affair. During the divorce proceedings, Elena claimed half of her husband's assets, which she valued at 629 million hryvnias. Nevertheless, the Ukrainian politician managed to prove that he had not lived with Elena for many years, thus giving her no rights to his property. There is no further information available about the woman online.
"Telegraph" previously reported on what the wife of MP Arthur Gerasimov looks like. The woman has given birth to four children for the politician.
