On his return to Ukraine, Stuzhuk underwent a test for COVID-19, which confirmed he was positive.

“I want to share how I got sick and to strongly warn everyone. I was one who thought that Covid does not exist… Until I got sick,” said the fitness influencer.

“COVID-19 IS NOT A SHORT-LIVED DISEASE! And it is heavy,” he added.

After eight days he was permitted to leave his ward rather than remain in an overcrowded Kyiv hospital.

But after a few hours he was rushed back to the hospital where his ex-wife, Sofia said he was soon in a ‘grave condition’ and ‘unconscious’.

According to Independent UK, Sofia with whom he had three children, announced on Instagram that he had died a day later.

“For the rest of my life, I will remain grateful to you for our three beautiful children. For all the invaluable experience. And for who I have become with you, ”she wrote on her post dedicated to her former husband.
