Telegram boss to leave fortune to over 100 children he has fathered

The tech billionaire who created the messaging app says all of his offspring will share his estimated $13.9bn fortune.

Mr Durov, who says he is the "official father" of six other children with three different partners, added that all of his offspring will share his estimated $13.9bn (£10.3bn) fortune. The 40-year-old said he had written a will now because his job "involves risks – defending freedoms earns you many enemies, including within powerful states". He has denied failing to cooperate with law enforcement over drug trafficking, child sexual abuse content and fraud.
