Dancing Star’s Custody Battle Over Kids in Hong Kong | Charleston News
Description
Dancing with the Stars’ Gleb Savchenko is locked in a high-stakes custody battle with ex-wife Elena Samodanova, accusing her of holding their daughters hostage in Hong Kong — where they’ve stayed far longer than agreed — while she’s allegedly built a new life there, including a new relationship and even a baby. He’s seeking emergency custody of 15-year-old Olivia, claiming she’s being emotionally harmed by her mom’s “abusive comments” and doesn’t want to return to Hong Kong, where she’s thriving academically and artistically. Elena fires back, calling his claims false, insisting Olivia is thriving under her care and that California has no jurisdiction — especially since Gleb himself holds Hong Kong residency. A mediation is set for August 5th, with a court hearing looming.
