Dancing with the Stars Pro Gleb Savchenko's Ex-Wife Seeks Authorities' Help to Locate Him and Their Teenage Daughter

In a shocking turn of events, Elena Samodanova, the ex-wife of popular 'Dancing with the Stars' pro Gleb Savchenko, has taken legal action to find her missing 15-year-old daughter Olivia. According to court documents obtained exclusively by us, Elena claims she is unaware of the whereabouts of Olivia and her estranged husband in Los Angeles. The drama unfolds as Elena filed a request with Hong Kong's Department of Justice to have Olivia returned to China. She alleges that the case was subsequently transferred to a California District Attorney’s office, leading U.S. authorities to launch an investigation to locate both Gleb and Olivia before making any decisions regarding their future. Elena asserts that Olivia arrived in Los Angeles on May 29 but was supposed to return to Hong Kong on July 9. She provides an email as evidence, which she claims shows that Gleb agreed to this date; however, she alleges that Olivia never returned home. In addition, Elena states that Olivia's Hong Kong phone is now inactive, and Gleb has not provided her with a new contact number for their daughter. She claims she can only reach Olivia through Instagram and does not know the girl's current address. Previously, we reported that Gleb sought temporary custody of Olivia, claiming his ex-wife was attempting to keep both Olivia and their younger daughter, Zlata, in Hong Kong against her will. However, Elena denies these allegations, asserting that Hong Kong is the girls' home and that she is now seeking a California court order to prevent Gleb from enrolling Olivia in an L.A.-area school during the ongoing custody dispute. As the exes prepare for their court hearing on August 18, it appears Elena remains in the dark about Gleb's whereabouts. This intriguing development promises to add another layer of complexity to the already tumultuous custody battle between the former couple. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to monitor this developing story.
