Vasyl Virastyuk has a fifth child

Vasyl Virastyuk has become a father for the fifth time. He announced the news to his followers on Instagram. His wife, Irina, who is 11 years younger than him, gave birth to a son.

The boy was named Yaroslav, but in the family he is called by the shortened name — Yarek. Virastyuk happily shared the news of his son's birth, specifying that the baby was born on 6 January 2025 at 15:55. His height was 58 cm, and his weight was 3,850 grams. All family members, including the newborn, are doing well.

Although the athlete has not yet shown the baby's face, his silhouette can be seen in the background of the photo.

For Virastyuk, this is already his fifth son. He has had several women in his life with whom he experienced significant moments. He was married to his first wife, Svitlana, from 2003 to 2006. Their relationship ended tragically: Svitlana died in an avalanche at a ski resort in Turkey. 

After this, the athlete married Inna, with whom he lived for 15 years, and they had two sons — Oleg and Sasha. However, their union collapsed when Inna left for Prague with the children at the beginning of the full-scale war.

Irina and Vasyl began dating while the athlete was still married to Inna. They met by chance at a family dinner, and the couple eventually decided to become a family. 

Virastyuk himself believes that his new romance was, in a way, a response to Inna's action of leaving with the children abroad in the midst of the war.
