"The situation is difficult." Lerchek, who is pregnant with her fourth child, was diagnosed with health problems.

Lerchek (real name Valeria Chekalina), who is pregnant with her fourth child, has been diagnosed with health problems. Her boyfriend, Louis Squicchiarini, announced the news on social media.

Lerchek has been under house arrest for over a year in connection with a multi-million dollar fraud case and is banned from using the internet, so her boyfriend now maintains contact with her fans. Squicchiarini posted a video of himself and Lerchek posing in front of an ultrasound scan and announced that she is 25 weeks pregnant and her health "requires constant attention."

"Right now, all our thoughts and prayers are for Lera to have the opportunity to give birth in safe and healthy conditions. The situation is difficult, and we really hope so. Her health requires constant attention: doctors diagnosed anemia and gestosis, so specialist monitoring and regular visits to the clinic are vital for the baby's well-being (the last ultrasound was done at 18 weeks)," the 37-year-old dancer said.

Squicciarini recalled that he and 33-year-old Lerchek do not yet know the sex of their unborn child, but when he does, he will definitely announce it publicly.

Earlier, the blogger's ex-husband, Artyom Chekalin, commented on her fourth pregnancy.

As a reminder, Lerchek became pregnant by her dance teacher, Argentine Luis Squicciarini, while under house arrest. She admitted that she and Luis had been together for a year and had planned the pregnancy. Last summer, the blogger separated from her husband, Artyom Chekalin, after 13 years together. They have three children together. The ex-spouses are accused of illegally transferring funds abroad on an especially large scale. According to investigators, they earned over 250 million rubles from selling online courses and fitness marathons and transferred the funds abroad using forged documents. They face 5 to 10 years in prison, although it was recently revealed that the Central Bank found no violations in the money transfers in the Chekalin case to the UAE, and they may be found not guilty.
