Ex of dead influencer who said “Covid is wrong” asked him...

The heartbreaking ex of an Instagram influencer who “thought Covid didn’t exist” and later died said she asked him to take his health seriously.

Fitness trainer Dmitriy Stuzhuk, just 33, shared updates with his one million followers after contracting coronavirus and even posed for photos while receiving oxygen in the hospital.

The father of three was discharged from hospital in his native Ukraine, but was sent back just hours later and his condition deteriorated rapidly.

In a heartbreaking tribute, his former wife and co-Instagram influencer Sofia Stuzhuk, 25, said to her five million fans: “God, I’m so sad that you didn’t listen to me about your health.”

The couple had three children – David, Lola and Olivia. The youngest is only nine months old.

Dmitriy is said to have signed Covid-19 during a trip to Turkey.

After getting sick, he wrote to his fans: “I want to share how I got sick and give everyone a strong warning.

“I was one who thought Covid didn’t exist. Until I got sick. ”

He told them: “COVID-19 IS NOT A LIVING DISEASE! And it’s hard. ”

To his one million followers on social media, he appeared to be in excellent health as he promoted exercise and healthy living.

But Sofia, who announced his death, said Covid-19 had caused heart complications.

She posted a series of photos of the couple and their children during their six years together before they split earlier this year.

The fitness model suggested that she asked Dmitriy to take his health seriously.

She wrote, “God, I’m so sad that you didn’t listen to me about your health.

“But we always respected each other’s decisions.

“We weren’t together anymore, but it doesn’t hurt any less.”

Sofia admitted that there were “a lot of problems” but their relationship “gave us so much”.

She wrote: “We have lived and experienced so much with you. They were there in sadness and joy.

“You taught me so much.

“I will remain grateful to you for our three beautiful children for the rest of my life.

“For all the invaluable experience.

“And who I became with you.

“You and I became parents to three beautiful children and even one heavenly one.”

Sofia wrote that the couple met when they were 19 and that Dmitriy supported her career and “loved me as best he could”.

Dmitriy woke up in Turkey with a swollen neck and difficulty breathing, he said in an earlier post to his fans.

Back in Ukraine, he tested positive and was hospitalized.

“The hospital is full of people, some of whom are treated in corridors,” he wrote.

He showed how he needed an oxygen machine to breathe.

After eight days, he was allowed to leave his ward instead of staying in an overcrowded hospital in Kiev.

He said, “At home, as they say, the walls heal – my condition is stable.”

But after a few hours he was taken back to the hospital, where Sofia said he would soon be in “severe condition” and “unconscious”.

Sofia wrote online while fighting for his life: “Dima (Dmitriy) had problems with his cardiovascular system.

“His heart is not right.”

He suffered a clinical death, but medics restarted his heart.

Sofia added: “His condition is extremely serious. Nobody can do anything with it.

“I did everything to ensure that the father of my three children lived. But now nothing depends on me. ”

Then Sofia, heartbroken, announced his death.

The couple split six months ago after complaining of “constant betrayal, swearing, showdown and stress,” but recently said they were back on good terms.

She wrote: “All that remains are warm memories, three beautiful children and valuable experiences.

“God, it is so terrible to realize that he is no longer with us.”
