She exchanged a millionaire for a billionaire. What is known about the boyfriend of Rotaru's granddaughter, who is the heir to one of the richest families in the United States

The granddaughter of the famous Ukrainian singer Sophiia Rotaru, 23-year-old Sonia Yevdokymenko, recently revealed her new boyfriend. It was Max Lerner, the heir to one of the richest families in the United States.

The young Ukrainian woman shared a photo of herself with her lover on Instagram, touchingly congratulating him on his birthday. Instead of her name, Sonia Yevdokymenko left a red heart. OBOZ.UA decided to find out more about the legendary singer's granddaughter's chosen one.

Max Lerner leads a non-public lifestyle. Even his Instagram page is closed from prying eyes. However, one photo from his blog can still be extracted. In it, Max Lerner poses with a glass in a luxurious tuxedo.

Much more is known about his family. Yes, the mother of Sonia's chosen one, Nancy Lerner, had 5 children. A tragic incident happened in the family in 2006. Max's sister, Emma, drowned when she lost control of an adult go-kart and it overturned into a stream on the family estate.

The family owes its fortune to Max's grandfather, the famous and now-deceased American businessman Al Lerner. He started his career as a furniture salesman, invested in real estate in the Cleveland area, and in 1981 became the chairman of Equitable Bancorp, which later merged with Maryland National to form the successful credit card company MBNA.

The billionaire died in 2002, passing his fortune to his two children, Nancy and Randy Lerner (Max Lerner's uncle – ed.). The billionaire's daughter created the Partnership for Families program, which pays for in vitro fertilization for couples who cannot afford the procedure.

Randy Lerner was an investment analyst and is remembered as a philanthropist and soccer fan who was able to buy out some of the teams in the United States.

By the way, Sofiia Yevdokymenko used to date Andrii Zhdanov, a 13-year-old IT entrepreneur on the Forbes list, who, although not a billionaire, had millions in his account.
