Photo from Dubai and family details

TV presenter and model Victoria Lopyreva posted a bikini photo on Instagram (owned by Meta, a company recognized as extremist and banned in Russia). According to Gazeta.Ru, the 43-year-old star posed on a balcony in Dubai with a view of the famous Burj Al Arab hotel and told her followers that she had returned to the UAE with her son. According to the outlet, the blogger is raising her firstborn, Mark Leonel, with businessman Igor Bulatov. In 2023, in an interview, she said she was living separately from her husband: the couple had not officially divorced, trying, in her words, to find the right way out of the situation for the sake of their shared child. After that, the celebrity made no further comments about the marriage.

Life in the Emirates

The outlet also recalls the context of the TV presenter's emigration. Lopyreva lives with her son in an expensive Dubai hotel and, by her own account, values the 'perfect service', having no intention of giving up comfort and moving into an apartment. In 2022, she told her followers that she had received a 10-year UAE golden residence visa and had arranged the same documents for her son. She explained her choice of Dubai by its safety, climate, and the opportunity to continue her international career; she enrolled her child in one of the best international schools, hoping, in her words, for great prospects after graduation.
