UNHAPPY FAMILIES
Blogger, 35, pregnant by stepson, 20, after leaving his dad, 45, for him when she ‘seduced’ him on visit home from uni
A BLOGGER who ran away with her husband’s eldest son is now pregnant with her 20-year-old lover's child, she has announced.
Marina Balmasheva, 35, posted a video to her 411,000 followers showing the moment she and student Vladimir "Vova" Shavyrin - who was her stepson from the age of seven - found out they are expecting a baby.
Meanwhile, the five adopted children she had been raising with ex-husband Alexey Shavyrin, 45, her lover’s father, are now living with him.
Marina had been married to Alexey for 13 years before divorcing.
Alexey already had two children prior to their relationship, Vladimir and his brother Viktor, before the couple adopted five children together.
During the course of their marriage, Marina shed 58kg, becoming a social media star by posting updates of her weight loss battle on Instagram.
Despite her dramatic weight loss, she did not manage to fall pregnant with her ex-husband and desperately wanted her own child.
I would have forgiven her cheating, if it wasn't my son.”

Alexey says he discovered his former wife was having an affair with her stepson when he heard them having sex at night in their family home.
But according to Marina, she began a relationship with her 20-year-old stepson only after the couple had split.
An angry Alexey says his former wife “seduced” his son, as “Vova is not capable of that.”
Alexey said: “He had not had a girlfriend before her.
“They were not shy to have sex while I was at home.
“I would have forgiven her cheating, if it wasn't my son.”
Alexey claims Marina would run to his son's bed while he was sleeping.
He said: “After that she was coming back and lying in bed with me as if nothing had happened.
“When I found out about everything, I demanded a divorce.”
The relationship between Marina and Vladimir bloomed after he returned home on a break from university when he was 19.
He helped his stepmother in the kitchen, caring for his adopted siblings, and doing shopping.
Marina revealed their controversial relationship earlier this year, posting a picture of herself aged 22 with Vladimir when he was aged just seven.

The 2007 photo provoked critical backlash online, with Marina accused of immorality.
One user wrote: “What shocks me most is that this boy grew up before her very eyes.”
Marina replied: “I know some will judge us, others will support us, but we are happy and wish you to be as well.”
The social media star shared her longed-for baby news on Instagram.
Marina told her followers she was “done hiding”, revealing she is four weeks pregnant.
She said: “I know the term is short yet, and that the ultrasound with the heart is ahead.
“But I want you to know it.”
“Everything is possible in this world.”
The couple say they plan to marry next month but “we won't have a lavish celebration”.
Vladimir’s mother - another ex-wife of Alexey’s - would help them care for the baby, Marina said.
Despite the split, she still sees her adopted children.
