Olga Slutsker
The idea of creating a network of clubs, which is now known throughout the CIS under the World Class brand, originated in Italy. While traveling, Olga took an aerobics class and realized that a gold mine had opened up in front of her. The starting capital of $700 thousand was lent by the husband Vladimir. At first, acquaintances did not appreciate Slutsker’s business zeal: what is it like to sell physical education. But Olga was guided by the principle that people want to be like celebrities, and over time this approach bore fruit.
Shortly before this, the senator’s wife met Yuri Aizenshpis, who introduced the woman into the capital’s secular circles. Now Olga’s friends include gossip column regulars Stepan Mikhalkov, Svetlana Bondarchuk, Ksenia Sobchak, Albina Nazimova.
Olga Slutsker World Class Club
Vladimir’s partners, as well as the Moscow elite, became the first clients. The husband subsequently stepped away from business and said that all issues fall on Olga’s shoulders. Therefore, she graduated from the State University of Management and became a regular at international fitness seminars.
Fifteen years later, when a scandal broke out in the family with divorce and determination of the place of residence of the children, Slutsker said that she was actually convinced of the correctness of the proverb “Don’t have a hundred rubles, but have a hundred friends.” In social circles, it is considered good form to keep yourself in good shape within the walls of clubs owned by Olga. By 2007, this network already represented the Russian Fitness Group corporation, which included the Reebok and Maxi-Sport fitness networks.

In addition to sports projects, Olga opened the Heirs women’s health center, whose main focus is in vitro fertilization. Slutsker, who became the mother of five children in this way, understands well women who want to experience motherhood.
According to Rospres.org, in the early 2000s, Olga, together with Oleg Deripaska and Maxim Vorobyov, owned a company that was engaged in the development of St. Petersburg. Allegedly, through affiliated companies, businessmen received contracts for the construction of five thousand parking lots and the renovation of 22 microdistricts of St. Petersburg and its suburbs.
Olga Slutsker in the show “Big Races”
The name of the president of the Fitness Aerobics Federation is among those who came up with the idea of improving physical education lessons in secondary schools. Since 2005, Olga Slutsker has been the head coach of Russian participants in the Channel One show “Big Races”, since 2007 - a member of the executive committee of the International Federation of Sports, Aerobics and Fitness, since 2012 - Chairman of the Public Council under the Commissioner for Children's Rights under the President of Russia .
Love and betrayal
In 1995, Olga returned to her husband the money she had borrowed for the business, and a year later she bought the rights to the World Class brand from a Swedish company. So she became the full owner of the corporation, continuing to further develop the network of sports clubs. Today Slutsker is one of the most successful women in Russia. But family life was not as successful as her career. Olga could not give birth, so it was decided to resort to the latest foreign techniques.
In 1999, the Slutskers had a son, Mikhail, in America. Five years later, also with the help of a surrogate mother, daughter Anna was born.
Suddenly in 2009, a seemingly prosperous family breaks up. 21 years have passed since 1988, when Olga and Vladimir got married, and suddenly such a blow. Yes, not alone. Vladimir filed a lawsuit and received a decision that the children would live with him. As a result, Olga lost both her home and her children. Slutsker was a member of the Federation Council until September 2010, then left his post, emigrated to Israel and took Misha and Anya there.
Personal life
At the time Olga met Vladimir Slutsker, the latter was considered one of the most successful first businessmen of the new Russia. The meeting took place in Sochi, where the girl came with friends on vacation. Over time, my husband moved from big business to big politics - he sat on the Federation Council, headed the Russian Jewish Congress, and after moving to Israel he founded the Israeli Jewish Congress.
Vladimir Slutsker and Olga Slutsker
Olga does not hide the fact that the children were carried by a surrogate mother. In 2017, the online magazine Tatler.ru, in an article about celebrities with such children, citing the words of a businesswoman, announced the cost of the procedure - $ 20 thousand. But the curious know only a few details of the selection of the candidate who bore Slutsker’s third and fourth children; all personal information remained outside the scope.
The eldest Mikhail and Anna were born while still married; the boy was carried by an American woman, the girl was born in Russia. Parents divorced in 2009. Their nanny shared the scandalous details, as well as the peculiarities of raising children, in an interview with LIFE.RU. According to her, Olga cheated on her husband, and was very restrained in showing maternal feelings. Perhaps this is the only time Olga made her private life public.
Olga Slutsker with children
According to her, she turned to the press in order, firstly, to defend her good name. Secondly, she decided that journalists would be able to impartially cover the divorce proceedings, in which, as she considered, the court initially took the side of her ex-husband under the influence of her deputy status.
Vladimir went to Israel and took the children. For a couple of years, details of the trial appeared on news channels and on the Internet, during which Slutsker was not afraid to voice the smallest details. Over time, the passions subsided, Olga admitted that she had forgiven her husband, and occasionally sees her daughter and son in Israel.
Olga Slutsker and Evgeny Mironov
In the midst of the trial, paparazzi photographed the socialite several times in the company of actor Yevgeny Mironov. The online publication Spletnik.ru, owned by a close friend of Polina Deripaska, cited unnamed sources, from which it followed that the affair between the owner of World Class and a Russian film star was the reason for the divorce.
As the tabloids suggest, perhaps if Misha and Anya were nearby, the woman would not have decided to have more children. Twins Masha and Katya were born in 2013. Olga did not name her father, she only said that he was “amazing, smart, and the girls were very lucky.” The publication EG.ru put forward a version that Slutsker spoke in this way about the Chairman of the Board of Gazprom Neft OJSC Alexander Dyukov. Journalists recorded him as the father of Olga’s son, born in 2015.
Olga Slutsker and Alexander Dyukov
Olga collects works of art - Russian artists of the 19th century, paintings and photographs by Andy Warhol, Rauf Mamedov, Man Ray and other Western authors of the second half of the 20th century. The fitness queen was the first Russian to start buying works by the famous classic photographer Helmut Newton.
At the same time, acquisitions do not gather dust behind the walls of mansions, but decorate the walls of clubs and are exhibited in expositions. Having once bought fakes for serious money, Olga decided not to use the services of Russian dealers and consults mainly with gallery owner Aidan Salakhova.
