The U.S. Department of Justice has made public documents pertaining to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, revealing that Lithuanian event organizer Valdas Petreikis had interactions with Epstein and even visited him. Additionally, Petreikis's wife, prima ballerina Simona Paciukonytė-Petreikė, is mentioned as a beneficiary of a portion of Epstein's estate worth $3 million, although the reasons for this decision by Epstein remain unclear to the couple. These revelations raise questions regarding the social circles surrounding Epstein and his connections around the globe.

In a separate yet notable development, singer and entrepreneur Kristina Ivanova has announced her divorce from businessman Andrius Mickus after seven years together, citing the relationship as having entered a common 'seven-year crisis.' Ivanova expressed her gratitude for the meaningful time they spent together, despite the challenges they faced. This personal change marks a significant shift in her life as she ventures into a new chapter.

The overlapping stories of Petreikis and Ivanova draw attention to both personal and social dynamics at play in Lithuania, particularly in relation to the impact of international scandals on local figures. As details continue to emerge regarding Epstein’s associates, the public may scrutinize not only celebrity relationships but also the connections that link local public figures to controversial international matters.
