A LIFESTYLE blogger who ditched her husband for her stepson has now given birth to his baby.
Weight loss influencer Marina Balmasheva, 35, posted regular updates to her half million-plus Russian followers after going into labour.
Her 21-year-old husband Vladimir Shavyrin, who she helped raise from the age of seven, was not present at the birth.
She was previously married to his father Alexey Shavyrin, 45, who now cares for their five adopted children.
He has accused her of seducing his son after he came home on holiday from university.
Marina posted pictures of her daughter but revealed her toyboy partner had instructed her not yet to show the girl’s face.
The baby - born in a maternity unit in Krasnodar - weighed slightly over 8lbs.
“Dad does not want to show our daughter yet,” she said. “That’s why the view is only from the back…
“We are thinking about the name," she added.
The new mum did not say if the father was not present due to Covid-19 restrictions, hospital policy or personal choice.
Fewer fathers in Russia attend births of their children than in the West.
Marina said she was a “complete mess” after Friday's birth which came after her waters broke as she watched Game of Thrones.
“Everything is very good with us,” she said. “[The baby] did not sleep too well at night, but [she] has been sleeping since 6am.”
She earlier told her followers details of her pregnancy and revealed how she went through a succession of plastic surgery treatments to make herself attractive to her now spouse.
Marina said she calls her new man “the most charming blue-eyes in the world”.
She said: “So many people tell me to use makeup - make lashes, and curl my pubic hair - 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."
She also told how she insisted on a pre-nup so that she keeps all her money and assets in case of divorce from her new husband.
Her ex has previously complained that “she seduced my son… 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….
“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.”
She now says her previous marriage was "not living but pretending”
Balmasheva told her followers: “Did I have regrets that I destroyed the family? Both yes and no.
“I was ashamed that I killed the stability of 'mum and dad'.
