“We haven't talked to my son for a long time. My ex-wife took the child with her after our separation. And always very much turned against me. I paid her huge alimony. When he became an adult, I tried to re-establish contact. But the son said that he did not want to communicate. I have never communicated with him and am not going to. This is not my son."
Alexander Zhurbin As Zhurbin added, he has only one real son - Leo from the poet Irina Ginzburg. “There is a biological son, and there is an heir whom you raised. Here I have a second son and I adore him. He is my successor. And my son, who grew up and lived for almost 50 years without me, does not interest me,”Zhurbin said. more on the topic “I was in a hurry with my first marriage”: Alexander Zhurbin explained why he left Laura Quint As the composer noted, they were together for only three years. Recall that Philippe Quint, when he grew up, became a famous violinist. In the United States, he starred in a number of television series. He is also not going to establish contact with his father.
