Belarusian tennis star Aryna Sabalenka is going through extreme emotional turmoil after her former partner Konstantin Koltsov’s sudden death. The two had confirmed their relationship publicly but the news of this couple’s parting ways came into light after Koltsov’s death. Regardless, the passing of Koltsov weighs heavily on her heart. Apart from Sabalenka, Julija Mihailova, former wife of Koltsov and their children are also mourning the loss while dealing with multiple challenges.

Julija Mihailova has opened up about several things including the future of their children (Daniel, Alexander, and Stefan), uncertainty about finances, and her bonding with Sabalenka after Koltsov’s death. Well, it’s a difficult time for all. Mihailova also has shared how she is handling the question of 5-year-old Stefan about his father’s death.

Losing a father during teenage years is not a common occurrence. Koltsov’s sons have to, unfortunately, go through the same. In a recent interview, Mihailova expressed the situation of their three sons: “Difficult question. We try not to lose heart. I don’t know how else to say. It’s harder for the eldest sons, Daniel and Alexander, they understand everything well. They are 18 and 16 years old. The youngest, Stefan, is five years old. He thinks Dad is in paradise now. Stefan, however, asked how Dad died, but I haven’t answered him yet.”

Along with mourning his passing, she also revealed that Daniel, the oldest son, has to be present to sign all documents after his death. “The heir, by the way, is considered the eldest child, not the ex-wife or girlfriend. Therefore, it will be necessary to take Daniel with you to sign all the documents related to the case.”

The demise of Koltsov not only forces bereavement upon them but it has also put their future in the US on uncertain grounds.
