At the age of 13, Darya Sudnishnikova became pregnant. She recently gave birth to a baby girl, claiming the father to be her 10-year-old boyfriend, Ivan. This news sparked widespread attention online, garnering interest from her 350,000 social media followers, including 150,000 on Instagram.
However, inconsistencies emerged in Darya’s story. Initially, she attributed Ivan’s paternity, but later confessed to fabricating this narrative to conceal a forced sexual encounter with a 15-year-old boy. This retraction, followed by another reversal claiming Ivan as the father and denying the previous accusation, created significant confusion.
The case became international news when Darya shared her fears about childbirth along with her pregnancy journey on social media. Meanwhile, authorities initiated an investigation, intending to collect a DNA sample from the newborn baby to establish paternity definitively.
Despite the controversy, Darya expressed her intentions on Instagram, stating that Ivan would assume “paternity” for the child once he reaches 16, assuming their relationship and circumstances permit it. While the baby remains unseen by the public, Darya confirmed the child’s health, emphasizing a weight of 3.6 kg.
“That’s it, I gave birth to a baby girl at 10am,” Darya announced on Instagram on Sunday. “It’s tough, I’ll tell you everything later. I am resting now.”
This complex story continues to unfold as authorities pursue their investigation and Darya navigates the challenges of young motherhood. The ethical and legal implications of such a situation are being debated, leaving questions unanswered and drawing scrutiny from the public.
