The founder of instant messaging app Telegram, Pavel Durov, says the more than 100 children he has fathered will share his estimated US$13.9 billion fortune.
Mr Durov told French political magazine Le Point that they’re all his children and will all have the same rights.
According to Durov he doesn’t want them to tear each other apart after his death.
Mr Durov claimed he is the “official father” of six children with three different partners, but the clinic where he started donating sperm 15-years ago to help a friend, told him that more than 100 babies had been conceived this way in 12 countries.
He also reiterated that he denies any wrongdoing in connection with serious criminal charges he faces in France.
The self-exiled Russian technology tycoon also told the magazine that his children would not have access to their inheritance for 30 years.
