Truth about Sherali Jurayev’s family revealed by his first wife

Khursan Aya Toshpulatova, the first legal wife of the late Sherali Jurayev, People’s Artist of Uzbekistan, gave an interview to QALAMPIR.UZ on April 28 and stated that Botir Kadirov is Sherali Jurayev's real son.

"Sherali Jo'rayev and I got married in 1973 after going through the 'ZAGS' (Registry Office). We lived together for 16 years until 1988, but we had no children. We divorced due to childlessness. I knew that Botirjon was Sherali Jo'rayev's son. Although they hid it from me, I knew and felt it. Botirjon would also come and play," says Khursan Aya.

According to Botir Kadirov, when he was a child, his father took him to Khursan Aya and introduced him to her, saying that he was her son. Khursan Aya also confirmed these words.

“I am 100 percent sure that he is his child. It seems so. He has been acknowledging it until now. His mother, sisters - everyone would acknowledge it. We believed it then, and we still believe it now. I also told him yesterday when Shahjahan came, live as brothers, you should do this, and I advised him to leave the souls of those who have passed away in peace,” says Botir Kadirov’s stepmother.
