On the eve of the birth, on the eve of the appearance of the second child, the creative director of the Swarovski brand, Giovanna Battaglia-Engelbert, gathered her close friends in Portofino, Italy.
Among the guests was Dasha Zhukova, who has rarely appeared in public lately. The founder of the Moscow Garage Museum is pictured in a group photo posing in a white dress with black polka dots and a Chanel bag.
Elektra and Evgenia Niarchos, sister-in-laws of Dasha Zhukova, as well as model and socialite Bianca Brandolini d’Adda, actress Camille Rou and other friends came to congratulate Giovanna on the imminent addition to the family. Giovanna and her husband, developer Oscar Engelbert, also have a daughter, Talita, who was born in 2019.
Recall, as the Athens News previously wrote with reference to the Greek media, the ex-wife of the Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, who married Stavros Niarchos, the grandson of the legendary grandfather, a year and a half ago, gave birth to a boy (March 2021)
Stavros himself is overjoyed. Dasha gave birth to his first child, who was named Philip. The family of magnates is also very happy about the birth of a healthy and strong baby, heir to the Niarchos dynasty. They are also happy that they did not fail, insisting that their son, an overgrown kid, roaming around unbridled parties, left the Australian top model Jessica Hart and married Dasha.
The Greek respectable classical family was clearly worried about whether the fashion model would give birth at all, and even if so, what kind of child. And seeing Dasha’s two charming children, they realized that it was the Russian businesswoman from art who would give them a beautiful healthy heir to the dynasty. Thus, everything worked out: both the “boy” is at work (he calmed down and is with his wife), and a wonderful granddaughter appeared!
The love story of a Greek and a Russian woman
As Russian Athens wrote earlier, Stavros and Dasha met in Greece, and the Greek was struck on the spot by the beauty, ease of communication and intelligence of the Russian woman. At that time, Dasha was “in free flight” after her divorce from Roman Abramovich, a Russian oligarch from the Forbes list. They have been married for 10 years and have 2 children, a son and a daughter. The divorce took place in 2017, Daria received good compensation and maintained a normal relationship with her ex-husband. In fact, Dasha broke up with Roman Abramovich at the beginning of the year, and in the summer she already considered herself a completely free woman, ready to accept signs of attention from men.
The 36-year-old Russian woman decided to relax in Greece and became close to Stavros Niarchos, with whom she had a “cap acquaintance” in elite parties, while still a married lady. After that significant summer, Stavros and Dasha were often noticed together. A year later, he made her an official marriage proposal right at an elite party convened on Dasha’s birthday. Thus the matter went to the wedding. And, of course, it did.

The wedding of Daria and Niarchos took place in October 2019. Moreover, unlike many other celebrities, they did it secretly and quietly. The celebration was surrounded by 300 guests, celebrities who came to St. Moritz for a party that took place without the participation of the press.
If for a moment we assume that the romantic version of marriage is not true or the only correct one, Dasha and Stavros could come together on the basis of common business interests.
The fact is that the billionaire in the future will become the owner of the most significant private collection of impressionist and contemporary art. His grandfather began to collect it. The father diligently replenishes the collection. Perhaps it’s time for Stavros Niarchos himself to take over the reins of this cultural heritage. Dasha Zhukova’s experience in this matter can be invaluable.
Perhaps the Niarchos family nevertheless decided to adapt the “idly staggering” overgrown kid “to business”, letting him know that he strongly disapproves of the relationship with the Australian model Jessica Hart, whom he was already going to marry. But they treat Dasha positively, including considering her as a potential wife and mother of the successors of the Niarchos dynasty.
Recall that in 2008 the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art was created by a couple Daria Zhukova and Roman Abramovich. The museum is the first philanthropic organization in Russia aimed at the development of contemporary art and culture.
In general, having received the approval of his parents, Stavros married the mother of two children, 3 years older than him. And obviously quite happy. The couple lives abroad, in the luxury apartments of Stavros Niarchos in the United States. Anticipating the replenishment of the family, the Greek bought a neighboring mansion for 15 million dollars.
Marriage of convenience
Of course it’s nice to be the wife of a Greek billionaire. Despite the fact that the state of his dad Philip, the eldest son of the founder of the dynasty, Stavros Niarchos (grandfather), who earned big money on oil transportation, is estimated at $ 2.5 billion.
The father of the newlywed is alive and well, so his offspring can still freely dispose of only a modest amount of $ 100 million, but in the future he will become much richer, even if “a finger does not strike a finger.”
Surely Stavros (like his parents) liked the fact that Dasha does not lick his lips at his potential inheritance, and she, in turn, appreciates that the gentleman is not chasing a rich wife. Here it is, in all its glory, a marriage of convenience, which can be quite happy if the calculation is done correctly.
